Summary
Penelope Featherington is an expert at being invisible. Deep in the throes of her PhD research, away from friends and family in a small Aberdeen attic, she has perfected the act of hiding her struggles from everyone. When a trip to London confirms her worst fears, she retreats to her cosy sanctuary, ready to let the world forget her entirely.
But someone was paying closer attention than she realised.
While everyone else accepted her polite texts and vague excuses, Colin Bridgerton noticed. Haunted by a moment of thoughtless betrayal and a sudden, terrifying need to bridge the distance between them, he follows her into the cold Scottish rain to join her under the rafters of her tiny attic. -

Summary
After her secret identity is unmasked by her best friend and cruel mother, Penelope Featherington has no choice: she must leave London. Fast.
Her very good friend and traveller Colin Bridgerton is set to depart for his second Grand Tour at dawn. He’s the perfect escape, but there’s a catch: he just publicly declared in her own garden that he would never dream of courting her. Will he be willing to help her run away, with the risk that entails for him? And if he does, will she survive being forced into the tight quarters of a carriage and the rolling decks of a ship with the man who just broke her heart?”Set after season 2, this is a story about forced proximity, high-seas adventure, hurt feelings, and slow (and then very fast) realisations. Did I mention there was only one bed?

Summary
Penelope Featherington heard Colin swear he would never court her—and decided to carry it in silence. Colin is certain she never heard him at all. At least, that's what he tells himself.
OR
Colin Bridgerton’s courting lessons grow more outlandish by the day. The fan. The walk. Archery, of all things. And now, God help her, the swing. Yet Penelope cannot bring herself to refuse him—even knowing no gentleman in all of London is searching for a wife who can swing like a lady. She has never been able to say no to him. And the trouble is, she never will.
Swing lessons. Colin cannot decide which is madder—that he proposed such a thing, or that Penelope agreed to play along. There is nothing practical in the exercise, nothing academic, nothing that will bring her closer to the one thing she wants—to be chosen by some other man. If he is honest, that has never once been the point. He has only ever wanted to keep her close a little longer. The trouble is, Colin is rarely honest, least of all with himself.

A Cat's Guide to Scratches, Scandals and Marriage by FeedingDucks

Summary
"What do you mean a cat got you married?"
Ten years ago, Colin Bridgerton discovered Penelope Featherington's secret identity and lost a fiancée (or two) to her pen. He has not spoken to her since... until her wedding morning, when he marches into her drawing room to relitigate a decade of grievances, cravat regrettably still tied.
Enters Beanie — full name Lady Imogene Bean Blackmoor Featherington-Whiskerstone — who takes one look at the furious Bridgerton and decides he must be removed. Several scratches, one ruined cravat, one compromised petticoat, and an extremely badly timed Archbishop later, Colin must marry the woman he has grown to despise.
And the cat, by mutual agreement (not really), the dowry.
And while the couple has absolutely no plans of falling in love, Lady Imogene Bean Blackmoor Featherington-Whiskerstone remains paw-sitively convinced it's only a matter of time. She has, after all, impeccable instincts for scratches, scandals, and happurrly-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.”
