    “What’s wrong?”

    “Erm… well… fuck. Ok. Colin.” She clears her throat. “I’m so sorry, but this is a call of shame.”

    “A what?”

    “A call of shame. I might… I might have chlamydia.”

    “So you might have chlamydia.”

    “I understand how STIs work, Pen.”

    Summary

    Penelope has spent her entire life despising demons—and with good reason. She watched them slaughter her family, leaving her a lone fae orphan under the wary protection of witches. Her hatred is a shield, a promise to never forget what she lost.
    Colin grew up hating the fae. Ever since their damning accusations branded his kind as murderers, demons have lived under suspicion and scorn. He’s seen firsthand how that lie shattered lives—how it shackled his people.
    Two worlds divided by blood and blame.
    Two hearts bound by fate.
    So what happens when Penelope and Colin—sworn enemies—discover they’re true mates?
    Enemies by history. Soulmates by destiny.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington knows these three things to be true:

    1) She has no time or interest in swiping right on any dating apps to find her elusive soulmate
    2) Inventing a fake perfect "boyfriend" is the only way to get her nagging mother off her back
    3) The perfect man only exists in her fantasies

    So when he suddenly appears on an ordinary day, corporeal and literally manifested straight out her dreams, what the hell is she supposed to do?

    Summary

    Growing up, Penelope Featherington loved Colin Bridgerton the way every shy girl from a dodgy home situation loves the shining, perfect boy next door. She loved his smile, and the way he always sought her out at family parties, and the shared jokes they had developed over the years. She loved him in a way that felt real, as though it might someday, somehow, amount to something.
    Anthony was different.
    She loved Anthony like she loved the sun: basking in his warmth whenever it happened to fall across her, but never once mistaking it for something meant specifically for her. She could appreciate the light he cast over her life from a safe distance, content to admire him while he moved through the world entirely unaware that he had become the center of one small, foolish universe.

    Summary

    By the time Colin Bridgerton realizes the real reason why he's fled London, why he's felt so uneasy after Anthony's wedding, Phillip Crane has already pulled down his entire facade and read him for filth. But before that, some things have to happen for him to realize that what he's been looking for has been ignoring his texts all along. 

    Or

    Colin Bridgerton flees, and Phillip Crane is particularly great at oral... conversations.

    Summary

    It's not the first time Colin has woken up with a dry mouth, an achy body and a severe case of ‘what the hell did I do last night?’ but it is definitely the first time he has woken up here.

    What’s happening…?

    What is this place…?

    Is that Penelope he can hear…?

    His panic and confusion melt away at the sound of her voice and he feels a sense of relief. Penelope is close, she’s here… she’s… very close, actually… very, very close.

    Wait… Is she…? Is he…? Could he be…?

    Inside her?

    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

    Penelope is convinced to attend the university’s annual winter carnival under the promise she’ll see the rarely-in-London-anymore Colin Bridgerton. When she does spot him, however, he’s running the football team’s kissing booth.

    Which makes her want to throw up, quite frankly.

    Perplexingly, it also puts certain things into motion Colin discovers he is not prepared for.

    Summary

    After turning thirty, Penelope decides she's done waiting for the perfect man and wants to be a mother. With the help of an esteemed fertility clinic, she selects a sperm donor and gets pregnant on her own. Scared to deal with the judgement of others, she lies and says that her ex boyfriend who moved away is the father.

    Though she and Colin have drifted in recent months, when he finds out her news, he vows to support her and show up for her and her baby. Her feelings for him muddy the waters, and she does her best to keep him at arms length during such an emotional time.

    --

    It all started with a brochure. 

    When Philippa struggled to get pregnant with her second, she and Albion looked into every option they could think of. At another painful Featherington family tea, Portia rattled off a list of old wives tales of sex positions they could try, earning groans and gags from all four of her daughters. Penelope glanced at the table, where the brochure lay forgotten, the words “Mayfair Fertility Clinic and Sperm Bank” sprawled in elegant typeface across the front, as though it were a fine dining menu and not an institution where men jerked off into cups.

    Summary

    How the hell had Penelope ended up here? Her day had started off so nicely, so normally, and now here she was, standing in a purple lacey bra and a bright red tutu, hands on her hips, practically commanding Colin Bridgerton to kiss her while he stared at her, looking vaguely sick (for the sake of her self esteem, she wasn’t going to look into that one.) 

     
    She really didn’t know why Colin was being so weird about it, it was only a kiss. Not just a kiss, a kiss brought about by one of the stupidest drinking games known to man, it wasn’t like she was expecting it to mean anything to him, a fact that she’d already told him multiple times. She thought that that would make it easier for him, but no, he was still practically frozen. 

     
    “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” Everyone else chanted through the wall. Even Alfred was joining in.

     
    “I… Pen, I…” Colin trailed off. She looked at him expectantly, waiting for the words that apparently wouldn’t come.

     
    Jesus, how long had they even been here at this point? This was getting a bit ridiculous. 

     
    “For God’s sake, Colin Bridgerton, are you going to kiss me or not?”

     Polin's first kiss but make it Nick and Jess's first kiss.
