    Summary

    “What I was saying is that I believe the G-spot orgasm is a lie. It’s a myth. Something told to teenage girls to entice them into having sex so they’ll lose their virginities in so-so fashion in the back of a car only to be left a few weeks later by some loser looking to repopulate the penguins in Antarctica and —” She trailed off as Eloise started to poke her in the ribs and Daphne mumbled “Girrrrrl” into her drink quietly. 

    Colin’s brain felt fuzzy as he absorbed her words. He knew she was referencing her terrible ex-boyfriend Alfred. But now he knew that fucker took her virginity and did a terrible job and what was he supposed to do with that information? File it away, probably, so that he could unpack it at 3:00 in the morning on a random Tuesday. 

     At twenty-seven years old, he’d had his share of sexual experiences. None of it had been particularly mind-blowing, and as he thought harder, he couldn’t actually remember a partner getting off entirely in that way. Or had they? Why was he suddenly not sure?

    Was it actually possible that Penelope was right?

    No, that couldn’t be true.

    ***

    Let's have some *platonic* orgasms, like besties do ✌️

    Summary

    When Colin's water-damaged travel journal is returned to his family with news of his death, every page contains erotic dreams of Penelope. Except, they think they're memories - and Penelope (despite being determined to move on from him) doesn't have the heart to tell them they were never together.

    Convinced he's still alive, Pen travels across the continent to find him, and bring him home.

    When he finally spoke his voice was a low rumble. She could practically feel it vibrating through her whole body.

    “You’re such a good girl, Pen.”

    And fuck, she knew in that second she was done for. There was no returning to normal after this.

    Summary

    Colin’s fingers twitch. He shifts his weight from foot to foot. He’s been waiting for several minutes and he’s only getting more anxious. If only he could see her. He sighs dramatically.

    “Your wife?” asks the customs officer.

    Colin nods, eyes still searching for any glimpse of his friend, before realising that that isn’t correct. “I mean… no…” he mutters quietly.

    We’re in Fiji, he reminds himself. They’re a very friendly people. She’ll be fine.

    He still cannot see Penelope but he has a clear view of the customs officer, wearing plastic gloves and raised eyebrows, as he reaches into Penelope’s suitcase and pulls out the biggest dildo Colin has ever seen.

Penelope at last agrees to meet in person, confident now that her childish infatuation with her pen pal is under control and that she won’t be entirely wrecked and devastated by his reaction when he sees her. Meanwhile, Colin is struggling to reconcile his feelings for Penelope with the tug of fascination and intrigue he feels for a mysterious woman recently resurfaced from his past. Will he choose the one who got away or the one who’s always been there?

    Summary

    Colin Bridgdon has returned to Los Angeles after having spent the last couple years as a digital nomad. Encouraged by his brothers to start networking, he goes to a meet-up for members of his college fraternity, where he runs into Fred Debling, one of the guys who graduated with Anthony. He’s surprised when Fred asks if he’d be interested in joining in a threesome with him and his live-in girlfriend. Not having hooked up with anyone since his last failed relationship, he decides this might be a good way to get back in the saddle, so to speak. But then he discovers that Debling’s girlfriend is none other than Penelope Fetherston, his sister’s best friend and the girl he secretly fantasized about for years.

    "I have needs," he blurts out, and then his face does something awful, crumbling almost, before he catches and rights it out of habit. "Fuck. That came out wrong. I don't mean—I'm not—" His hands are shaking. "I need help, Pen. And I think you might be the only person I trust enough to ask."

    Colin asks. Penelope gives. Neither of them is prepared for what happens when the structure starts to fail.

    Summary

    Just one kiss.

    The question had surprised him; although it should not have, because her bravery has always been one of the many qualities he admired most about her.

    It does not have to mean anything.

    Still, Colin had hesitated. Not because of her, but for her. To ensure she understood the gravity of her ask. To allow her a respite to withdraw it if she wished to do so. But Penelope had not relented, instead murmuring his name and a desperate please that made him weak and ready to surrender to her.

    And since he is Colin and she is Penelope, and he would do almost anything for her, he did as she asked.

    They kissed, just the gentlest brush of their mouths moving together, and—

    After the events of 3x02, Penelope vanishes, Colin falls apart, and a series of very different events are put into motion.

Third son of the billionaire Bridgerton family that secretly runs New York’s underground empire. Colin has been photographed with every model in Manhattan, but the moment he meets the fiery, thique, freckled Penelope, he’s done playing. She hates him on sight. He’s already in love.

    "I want your help."

    Her eyes meet his. They're too fucking blue, dark and deep and surrounded by long, pretty lashes.

    "Help writing?" She imagines late nights standing behind him as he writes by the glow of his laptop, bending down so their cheeks hover with only warm inches of air between them. Letting her chin rest on his shoulder for a second, her nails tapping the screen. Feeling his breath hitch as she presses herself to him. She shifts in her seat and tries to pull herself together.

    He shakes his head. "No. Help with the sex."

    She laughs. It startles out of her in a bubble. "You want me to help you find someone to shag?" she asks incredulously, raking her fingers through her tangled curls (she was too hungover this morning to brush them properly).

    But Colin doesn't laugh, and his eyes don't leave hers. "No. I want to shag you." He grimaces. "I've never said that word before."

    “Roll, or kiss her for real and call it a nat twenty,” Genevieve muttered loud enough for everyone to hear, hoisting her wine glass with a smirk at Michaela, who lifted her eyebrows in consideration.

    “I’ll allow it,” Michaela ruled, nodding her chin once firmly at Genevieve before turning to smile fetchingly for Colin. “Your move, horny bard.”
