Summary
Colin’s life is a mess- a car crash, you might say. Miles from Mayfair, living on a farm near Glastonbury. Widowed, young twins, barely keeping the family together until Anthony and Violet step in.
Penelope’s life is plodding along in a decent fashion- job she loves (reception teacher), cougar wannabe mother she generally avoids and a quiet life despite living in the heart of Mayfair, but that’s ok, right? Who needs anything else?

Summary
“Are you kidding?” Michael grinned, cradling Penelope’s chin in his palms. “Look at her! This face! These eyes! Those freckles! That hair!” He threw his arm around Penelope’s shoulders and squeezed. “She’s a perfect little elf!”
Penelope blushed. “So you just thought of the shortest person you know”, she commented wryly.
“I thought of the best person for the job”, Michael responded. “And that’s you”.
Michael Stirling is playing Santa and needs an elf to help. Colin Bridgerton doesn't like it one little bit...

I Wanna Be Your Christmas Tree by WinterWindow

Summary
Colin’s eyebrows shot up as he opened the email, scanning the festive frenzy of text. Free random domestic flights for anyone showing up at Luton in costume? From Christmas Eve to Boxing Day? The spontaneity hit him like a shot of adrenaline—pure, unadulterated adventure, the kind that fueled his travel writing and his restless soul. He screenshotted the key parts, his thumb already flying to Penelope’s contact.
Colinator💙: Pen. Emergency. Ditch the train. We’re doing Christmas rogue.
PenPal💛: Are you mad?
Colinator💙: You’ll make the perfect Mrs. Claus—elegant, velvet-clad, bossing me around. We’ll own Luton.
PenPal💛: Flattery will get you everywhere. But if this ends in disaster, I’m blaming your “adventurous spirit.”
Colinator💙: Worth the risk. See you on the 24th, Mrs. C.
PenPal💛: Don’t make me regret this.When a budget airline’s holiday hijinks fling Colin and Penelope into costumes, chaos, and one very cozy bed, their friends-to-lovers detour proves that the best Christmas surprises come with bells, banter, and a side of steamy magic.
