Summary
“And don’t even get me started on this dress…”
“This old thing?” she jests, looking down at herself as if noting the dress for the first time. Kate sticks her leg out enough for him to see just how high the slit goes, and is rewarded with hearing him let out a deep sigh of absolute agony. “I thought you might like it. Well, more specifically, I thought you might like taking it—”
“Don’t, please,” Anthony begs, squeezing his eyes shut, his fingers pinching his forehead. He whispers the next part of his plea. “Not when I can’t touch you.”

Summary
Kate, in need of money fast and out of options, follows her roommate Siena's lead and tries her hand at being a sugar baby.
Anthony, completely uninterested in a serious relationship, is listed as a sugar daddy by his meddlesome brothers. He's appalled by the idea...until he sees Kate's profile.
Their arrangement is clean and simple, but it's not long before the lines between companionship, sex, and love begin to blur.

Summary
"Being under his gaze is something that she’s used to; she’s considered, more than once, snapping at him to take a picture rather than constantly trying to bore holes in her skull with his eyes. She’s always thought it must be some bullshit intimidation tactic, another way to get in her head and throw her off.
But on the dark, crowded dance floor, with his arm firm around her belly and his other hand running up and down her bare shoulder, the way he’s looking at her just feels…electric."
Kate invites her work nemesis to her sister's birthday, and this isn't going to backfire on her at all. (Modern AU)

Summary
Anthony narrowed his eyes and leaned his arms on the bar top. He tilted his head and said, very matter-of-fact, “You don’t like me.”
“Hmmm,” Kate tutted, pretending to think hard about it, “Decidedly not.”
“You don’t even know me!” Anthony countered, his nostrils flaring.
“I know you.” She shook her head and continued cleaning the bar. “You are not unique.”
“I’d love to hear what you have to say.”
Kate snorted, “I’m sure. I’m sure you love to listen to people talk about you.”
He rolled his eyes. “Go on, then.”
-------They meet. They fight. They get it together by the end.

Summary
Mid-s2e1 AU: Not only does the young lady Anthony raced in the park wholly misunderstand both his words and his character, she refuses to listen to his (perfectly rational) explanation, or even allow him the opportunity to offer a defence.
And that simply will not do. Which is why he must follow her inside the ballroom. And then ask her to dance. And then continue to seek her out as the days and weeks of the season progress.
***
“Will I have the opportunity to address the charges against my character?” He takes her hand and she turns elegantly under his raised arm. “Or do you intend to leave tonight’s gathering certain of your own rightness?”
The roll of her eyes is rather subtle, he will give her that. “Just because we are dancing does not mean we need to converse, my lord.”

Summary
Slowly, carefully, the gentleman pulls out a gold pocket watch and lays it down on the work-table. All his urgency seems to drain away as he looks forlornly down at the old, slightly battered thing.
“It’s broken,” he says quietly.
He sounds like that too. Broken.

Summary
He lowered his voice. “You are the most capable and intelligent person I have yet to meet. You make all of us look like fools.”
Her mouth opened in surprise before she quickly hid her feelings again. “Even you, my lord?”
She was smiling, clearly expecting an argument, but Anthony did not want her to think he took this lightly. He needed to correct her thinking. She needed to know that his initial promises were changing. Even if she did not reciprocate, he valued their honest rapport.
“You have made me the biggest fool, I think. For I thought I could pursue this courtship without any affection or strong feelings. Yet, it is impossible for me to feel nothing when I am with you.”
************
Anthony decides that Kate is the only woman fit to be Viscountess Bridgerton and catches feelings along the way. Fortunately, so does Kate.

Summary
“I’m very pleased to see you still play so beautifully, Miss Bridgerton.”
In her surprise, Francesca’s light fingers went leaden, coming down on the keyboard in a discordant clash and rather disproving her spectator's claim. She winced and looked up, squinting to make out who was lurking at the threshold.
