    Summary

    Colin is obsessed with Eloise’s best friend Penelope but his sister warned him to stay away which only seemed to feed his obsession rather than decrease it.

    Penelope on the other hand thinks of him as Eloise’s attractive asshole brother and enjoys torturing him from afar.

    Summary

    Colin can't quite shake the niggling feeling that something is wrong in his life. He's back in London after a month working in Australia and everything from the outside looks the same. Same Tuesday night pub gathering, same siblings, same topics of conversation that frankly hold no interest for him at all, same Penelope...

    Oh.

    AKA Colin realises that Penelope is ignoring him, and immediately begins to unravel.

    Summary

    An annulment, an unexpected pregnancy and one hasty decison finds Penelope sequestered away to a cozy cottage atop a hill in hopes of setting those she holds most dear free from the consequences of her pen, though they don't intend to be freed from her so easily. Least of all Colin.

    In which the Queen isn’t as forgiving and Penelope must scramble for purchase

    Summary

    Penelope and Colin are senior nurses at St. Jude Hospital in London, but the similarities end there. She has found a safe haven in hospital protocols. He, a recently transferred nurse from Scotland, prefers to bend the rules to do what he believes is right.

    When the competition for the Lead Change Nurse position begins, it not only tests their skills, but also forces them to confront their fears and open wounds. As their walls come down, the two discover something far deeper than they ever imagined.

    Curing others has always been their specialty. But is love enough for them to cure themselves?

    Summary

    Colin lifts his hand with the cigarette to his lips at the same that his eyes open, his head turns, and he first notices Penelope standing there watching him.

    "Fuck," he mutters before looking away from her and to the window. "I'm sorry."

    She isn't sure what he's apologizing for really—for smoking or fighting with Marina or maybe both. Regardless, it breaks a little part of her to see him looking so dejected and sad. There's a light missing from him, a weight pulling him down and making him seem smaller. It's not fair, though. He's so inherently good. He doesn't deserve to feel like this. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this. He deserves—

    Penelope can't help but blink in surprise even at just the meandering path of her own thoughts, at the idea that just popped into her head about what exactly she thinks Colin Bridgerton deserves at this moment and what exactly she'd like to do to make him feel better. It's ridiculous, right? She shouldn't… She couldn't… But what if she did?

    --

    Flatmates Penelope and Colin take a winding, complicated, messy path on their friends to lovers journey.
