    Summary

    Colin Bridgerton had it all: a beautiful wife, four beautiful children, and a fulfilling career.

    Saying he’s content is an understatement; he loves this life.

    That is until he’s yanked from this reality and finds himself in the hospital, awakening from a coma.

    It turns out he is not married and never has been. Penelope’s just his friend, his children don’t exist, and his perfect job is merely a pipe dream.

    On a journey of rehabilitation, self-discovery, and grief, Colin must come to terms with the life he has and build it into the one that he dreamed of.

    …trying to convince the girl he’s known as his wife of their wonderful life together shouldn’t be too tricky, right?

    Summary

    “Perhaps you should take a seat,” said Violet.

    Colin wouldn't remember the details of what his mother told him next. He would remember her hand warm on his knee, her eyes wide with concern, her voice gentle as velvet. All of it in stark contrast to the devastating news she shared.

    Penelope was ruined.

    Summary

    “I know that a man is supposed to - to insert himself,” she murmurs, hardly believing she has the audacity. “And sow his seed within his wife.” She bites her lip. “But I do not know what that truly means .”

    Colin faces straight ahead, his lips rolled between his teeth as if he is fighting a smile.

    Penelope feels frustration fizz through her. “Do not laugh at me, Colin Bridgerton,” she hisses under her breath. “It is not my fault such things are kept from young ladies.” Her eyes narrow at him. “I am sure you know all about it.”

    “Are you insinuating I am a rake, Penelope?”

    Summary

    The story goes like this: Boy wants girl. Boy fucks girl. Boy and girl live happily ever after.

    If they can’t do the boy fucks girl part, what does that mean for the happily ever after?

    --

    Or, Colin's always been too big. Penelope's always been too tight. Neither of them wanted their brand-new relationship to be this complicated.

    Summary

    “There,” he says, and it is maddening having her behind him, unable to see his face. His voice reveals so little. “You must try to wiggle out of the dress and the petticoat whilst I remove your stays.”

    “My - my stays?” she squeaks. “Surely there is no need - ”

    He lays a hand upon her shoulder, and it is so hot through the gauzy cotton of her chemise. She wonders if he is not feverish too. “They are soaked through, and it is not good to have the dampness so close to your lungs. Better to have them off.”

    She supposes she should argue, but she knows that it matters not if she is in her stays or her chemise or completely bare, at this point. If anyone ever found out about this, her reputation would be ruined either way.

     

    After begging Colin for a kiss, Penelope finds herself trapped with him during a snowstorm on the way to Aubrey Hall. THERE'S ONLY ONE BED PEOPLE
