Summary
It was a perfectly normal Wednesday morning when Cedric received that Ministry memo. A folded paper plane drifted down onto his desk, unsigned, carrying a message that asked to break up with him. But the problem was, Cedric hadn’t been dating anyone for almost a year.

Summary
“Well, I heard in town that you were looking for some help digging a well. And I thought I might provide my services.”
Penelope stared at him. “Now why on God’s green earth would you want to do that?” she asked, more bluntly than was perhaps proper for a young lady. “We can’t pay you.” Their father had left them with almost nothing, save this land and the house they were standing on. It was a pretty nice house - better than some of the others in the area - but life was hard.
He shook his head and turned his hat over in his hands. “No, I didn’t expect you could. I hoped you might instead pay me in kind.”
Penelope’s cheeks flushed red and she looked down, her hands smoothing the faded yellow cotton of her day dress. She didn’t suppose he meant what it sounded like he meant, being a gentleman and all, but the idea of Colin Bridgerton taking that sort of payment from her made her cheeks hot.

Summary
“Colin?” Benedict crossed his arms in front of his chest, hip cocked out as he looked down at their younger brother in amusement. “Who is Penelope?”
Their younger brother stiffened, cheeks flushing hot pink. He slid off of the armchair, crawling away with his book. When he reached the doorway of the media room, they heard his footsteps as he took off down the hall in a sprint.
“Well, that was weird,” Benedict declared, snatching the PlayStation controller and falling back on the couch with a bounce.
“No, that was insensitive,” Daphne huffed, setting her tea cup down. Eloise and Francesca followed suit, all three of them glaring at the eldest two from their play tea table. Hyacinth squealed, slamming her plastic cup down to mimic her sisters and put her hands on her hips like Daphne. “You were going to tease him so of course he ran away. Penelope is his girlfriend.”
“Girlfriend!?” Anthony and Benedict chorused, jaws dropping in shock.

Summary
“...we invest the said Mr. Colin Bridgerton, and the lawful heirs male of his body lawfully begotten, to the dignity, title, style, and honor of Marquess of Hartleigh…”
His throat had gone dry. The words on the page did not make sense to him.
“Um,” he tried, chuckling hoarsely. “Your Majesty, what is - I don’t…”
“Yes?”
Eloquence escaped him. “…what is this?”
The Queen looked mildly annoyed. “Why, I should think it is obvious. You, Mr. Bridgerton, are to be the next Marquess of Hartleigh.”—
One accidental act of heroism, and Colin Bridgerton finds himself elevated to the British peerage. Yet the Queen’s reward comes with a price: as the newly minted Lord Hartleigh, he’s been given an ultimatum - produce an heir within the next eighteen months. And, of course, to do so, he requires a wife. Urgently.
So why can’t he just pick a debutante and be done with it? And why is he far more interested in spending time in the very enjoyable company of his very good friend, Penelope Featherington?
