    Summary

    The conceit begins, as most things do, with mothers. 

    Anthony was nearly two, and Kate not yet a year, and the deal was drafted.

    --

    As intimate and life-long friends, the Bridgertons and Sharmas believe that once they have promised Anthony and Kate together in marriage, they have secured their children's everlasting happiness. That would be, of course, if they had the co-operation of said children, who were never content in following the deal their parents had so neatly laid out for them. Fate, indeed, had other plans.

    Summary

    "Anthony kept reassuring himself that there was a simple explanation for why he felt like he was perpetually on the back foot with Miss Sharma—it was because she had caught him off guard.  Her very presence in that park on the morning they first met, a solitary female, riding astride, was unexpected—scandalous, even.  When paired with her strong-willed nature and obvious, instant distrust of Anthony—distrust that he had almost immediately, and rather unfortunately, validated with his loose-lipped ramblings on the terrace at the Conservatory Ball—well, he had been put off balance, and had yet to fully recover."

    This story will tackle the questions we (or at least I) have been pondering for months. What if Benedict was not completely oblivious to what was going on between Kate and Anthony in Kent? What if Daphne shared her suspicions with someone? What if Mr. Dorset was invited to Aubrey Hall with the rest of the ton? What if Season 2 depicted a different love triangle, one that did not pit two sisters against one another?
