Summary
Colin's worlds collide when his contessa arrives in London, wanting to meet the infamous Lady Whistledown. The underhanded flirting isn't what discomfits him, however; it's his wife's reaction.
He knows that Penelope isn't a jealous woman, but surely, some measure of possessiveness is healthy?
Is it too much to ask that she feel just as tortured about his entanglements as he did about her almost-engagement to Lord Debling?
Does she not realize what the contessa is doing, or does she not care?
*****
A romcom featuring mopey, golden-retriever Colin, and his cute, unbothered wife.

Summary
A kite-flying event is rife with opportunities for young ladies and gentlemen to get closer, but Colin can’t seem to get Penelope alone long enough to speak with her about the life-altering kiss they shared. He’s out of his element; he can’t stop having inappropriate dreams about her; and watching Lord Debling court her makes him want to stick the pointy end of a quill in his eye.
Set sometime between the library scene and Lord Debling’s stymied proposal. Show canon-compliant. One-shot.

Summary
When Violet Bridgerton invites Penelope Featherington to be a guest at her destination wedding in the BVI, Penelope is grateful for the chance to relax and spend time with her second family. However, she's surprised to find old, (supposedly) unrequited feelings resurface when Colin Bridgerton shows up with his new girlfriend, Marina Thompson.
(a.k.a. undeniable chemistry, a sprinkle of jealousy, a little white lie, and lots of beach holiday clichés ... let's do this.)

Summary
"You don't seem to be breathing enough."
"Colin."
"And every time we slide, your lips flatten into this little line—"
"I am a grown woman and perfectly capable of driving my own car in the snow—"
The wheels started sliding, so she drove into it, as she was taught.
But the car didn't recover.
It kept going.
~
Driving to Aubrey Hall in a snowstorm for Christmas is more dangerous than Penelope expects.
And more enlightening, especially after she crashes into a tree, and Colin insists upon hashing out their problems in the freezing winter air.

Summary
Every December Colin sends his friend Penelope a fun advent calendar – something silly toys or tasty treats. It’s their thing. A little tradition which started years ago.
Only this year when the calendar arrives Penelope’s heart stops. Her brain melts. Her whole world turned on its head.
This calendar didn’t contain toys or treats. This calendar didn’t contain anything at all, except written suggestions.
Sexy suggestions.
Because apparently her friend Colin had decided to send her a sexy advent calendar for horny couples.
———————
“I can’t believe after all these years this is how he tells you he’s down to fuck.” Gen laughs like a maniac. “I’m not sure if he’s smooth or psychotic?”
“Shut the fuck up, Gen! Shut the fuck up.”
She needs to concentrate.

His driver manages to get him to the nearest safe dry building, which just so happens to be the Featherington country estate.
