Summary
Penelope is convinced to attend the university’s annual winter carnival under the promise she’ll see the rarely-in-London-anymore Colin Bridgerton. When she does spot him, however, he’s running the football team’s kissing booth.
Which makes her want to throw up, quite frankly.
Perplexingly, it also puts certain things in motion Colin discovers he is not prepared for.

Summary
It's not the first time Colin has woken up with a dry mouth, an achy body and a severe case of ‘what the hell did I do last night?’ but it is definitely the first time he has woken up here.
What’s happening…?
What is this place…?
Is that Penelope he can hear…?
His panic and confusion melt away at the sound of her voice and he feels a sense of relief. Penelope is close, she’s here… she’s… very close, actually… very, very close.
Wait… Is she…? Is he…? Could he be…?
Inside her?

Summary
Colin Bridgerton is a billionaire and one of London's most prestigious architects, charming and successful. A life well-made and enviable, with a dream job. However, every night when he arrives home he can feel the loneliness that permeates the walls of his “home,” of his life. What is this feeling inside of having everything you dreamed of and at the same time feeling incomplete?
Penelope can no longer handle this suffering, her life ceased to have meaning from the moment he left. She holds the last letter he sent her and the precious gift he gave her, closes her eyes tightly and with her last breath toward the sky makes a wish… to see him again.
Or, Regency Penelope travels to Modernity where she meets Modern Colin. A story of soulmates.

Summary
“If the babies are gumdrops, what flavours are they?”
She turned to him idly, petting his hand on her thigh. “Agatha is raspberry, because she is girly but a little tart, too. Elliot is wintergreen. He is very clear-minded. We will have to pray he is a good boy on his own, or he will get away with a lot later. He is moral, though, so I am not worried. Jane is pineapple, because she is sweet but complicated. She has a lot of favourite things for someone so young.”
Colin sighed. “Is that another implication my Jane-”
“I carried her, sir, and she was all mine for a long while,” Pen told him.
“And I was very jealous of all the tiny kicks you could feel when she was the size of a shrimp. I could never diminish your contribution to Jane’s presence, but I will object to your eyesight. Perhaps the last pregnancy has affected your eyesight?”

Summary
It’d been all too horribly easy. And deep, way deep down she’d known why. But she swallowed it and refused to let it surface. If she didn’t name it, didn’t allow it a label it didn’t have to exist. It didn’t have to be a problem—there was no problem.
And Colin had greeted her, this time clothed in a knitted sweater and khakis (she’d ignored the tinge of disappointment in her belly—it was a mistake Featherington, keep your head in the game).
His easy smile on his charming face deluded her further, (he’s innocent your honour, he means no harm) and she’d taken a seat on the couch where they’d… and she pulled out her notebook, waiting for him to sit himself down next to her. (She could do this; she could handle being next to Colin fucking Bridgerton and be normal.)
“Okay, where did we leave off...?” She scanned the questions quickly, trying to find a good one to start with.
“I believe you’d just came on my dick…” He says it so nonchalantly, but it jolts her.
OR Penelope is tasked to interview hockey player Colin and things get steamy leading to a secret relationship. Will their past destroy them or will it bring them closer together?

Summary
"Can I help you find something?"
Penelope Featherington jumps at the sound of a voice coming from behind her. She shouldn't be surprised, however, that the young, dark-haired, friendly-looking man who was behind the counter earlier is checking on her now. She's been standing frozen for the last few minutes in front of a wide display of items lined up on a wall that are entirely foreign to her. They're entirely foreign to her because she's a virgin in a sex shop, and suddenly the grand plans she had coming in here today all feel very, very stupid.
--
Or, virgin Pen wanders into Colin's sex shop one day in an unusual beginning to their happily ever after.

Summary
“It is vexing—far more vexing than you can possibly imagine!” Colin burst out. “Not merely the loss of your friendship, but the prospect of losing you entirely, Pen.”
He drew a deep, uneven breath before beginning to move toward her with slow, deliberate steps. Only when scarcely an inch remained between them did he finally stop.
“I would sooner allow myself to be utterly ruined than endure a world in which you are no longer mine to cherish, Penelope. That is a loss I find myself wholly incapable of surviving.”
“But we are both engaged to other people, Colin!” Penelope cried breathlessly. “We are to be married, to entirely different people—”
“I do not care!” Colin interrupted fiercely.
He stepped even closer, desperation burning plainly within his eyes.
“Damn me to hell if you must, Penelope, but I shall not permit this torment to continue a moment longer.”

Becoming Mrs. Colin Bridgerton by beeandquill
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
10 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Penelope Featherington never believed in coincidences — everything happens for a reason. At twelve years old, her bonnet slipped from her hair, and that bothersome yellow hat led her to meet the love of her life: Colin Bridgerton.
For four years, she has endured being seen by the third Bridgerton son as nothing more than a friend. That didn’t bother her — not until Colin turned his eyes toward Marina Thompson.
The disastrous and failed engagement between Colin and Marina sparked an unexpected reaction: debutantes began to feel both pity — and attraction — for Colin. That alone enrages Penelope in ways she cannot quite explain. Suddenly, it seems every woman in the Ton wants to be with him. Why? Now they all want to comfort sweet Colin? She won’t tolerate it.
Penelope hasn’t forgotten the pain, the bitterness, or the burning rage she felt when she learned of that engagement. It’s a feeling she never wants to experience again. And she will do whatever it takes to ensure no other debutante steals the love of her life. She will not allow anyone — anyone but her — to become Mrs. Colin Bridgerton.
