Summary
Mica handled a lot of unpredictable situations in their job as an emergency hatchling guardian. It came with the territory – there were all kinds of reasons a pebble too young to be alone might need watching by someone who wasn’t a cluster member. But Mica had never had a situation like the call they received from the space science cluster.
“Engineer Rocky is on that ship, apparently injured, and he’s brought back some kind of alien with him. It’s very young, only IIVI years old, it doesn’t have any of its own kind, but it learned some Eridian from Engineer Rocky. Can you come and watch it while Engineer Rocky recovers and we work out what it needs?”
or, Grace gets babysat by an Eridian.

Summary
“I do not know how to swim.”
The words come out in a rush, like a waterfall tumbling over rocks.
“No one knows,” Penelope adds miserably. “Not even Eloise.”
“I know, Pen,” Colin says, and his voice is as gentle as the lapping of water along the pond’s shore.
“H-how? All those summers we spent together. Why did you never say anything before?”
“Because you did not say anything, and I had no wish to embarrass or upset you. There is no shame, and it is never too late to learn.”
OR
Colin has been waiting for Penelope’s debut for years—finally, he will be able to court her properly. But when she flees the presentation hall, everything he hoped for shatters. One summer morning, a swimming lesson changes everything.

Summary
“Do not mind your Auntie Eloise,” Colin said lightly, and Pen’s heart thrummed in her chest as he rushed in and scooped Augie from his sister’s inept grasp. “She’s too busy reading to notice anything else, as usual.”
Penelope’s breath caught as Colin’s voice shifted, softening, lifting a note as he spoke to the baby. She stood next to him as he arranged Augie’s bum to rest on his right arm, against his side, his back supported securely with his other hand.
It came to him so naturally.
✦✧✦✧
It's 1814, and instead of arriving with the rest of the ton before the Hearts and Flowers Ball, Penelope tags along with the Bridgertons and Sharmas a few days early. Before the Bridgertons' annual game of Pall Mall, Penelope meets little Augie Basset…and sees Colin hold a baby for the first time. Something inside of her ignites, and suddenly she desperately needs to know precisely how babies are made so she can acquire one of her own.
Colin, despite his recent visit to Marina and questioning of his own future plans for children, is more than happy to help.

Summary
Violet was right. There would come a time when Penelope found someone worthy of her love and attention. There’s no way Penelope would be able to find the time to join the Bridgertons for Christmas once she was married.
That was unacceptable. That couldn’t happen. Eloise wouldn’t let that happen.
There was only one way to ensure that Penelope kept attending the Bridgerton Christmas.
Penelope had to become a Bridgerton.
-
After Penelope leaves the Bridgerton House to celebrate Christmas with her own family, Eloise is determined that by next Christmas, Penelope will be on her way to becoming a Bridgerton. She sets Penelope up with her single siblings, excluding Colin.
