Summary
Penelope Featherington has tried both subtly and not-so-subtly to tell Colin that her cousin is pregnant with another man’s child and wants to pass the child off as Colin’s with a hasty marriage to hide the deception. However, no matter what she tells him, her friend is unwilling to see her actions as anything else but jealousy and a want of Colin for herself.
In a last-ditch effort to save Colin from a horrible marriage and a life of painful obligation should the deception come to light, she slips out of her family’s Mayfair home the night before Colin and Marina have agreed to run away to Gretna Green to elope… set on publishing a last-minute edition of Lady Whistledown’s column bringing light to Marina’s duplicitous acts. But, as she stands there in the dark of the Mayfair street, she decides to choose another option instead; an option that in one night brings change the likes of which she never imagined and the sort of love that will last a lifetime.

And he is going to tell them what's what, because clearly that is a good idea. Fortunately, his new muggle friend seems to have a beef with Potter too.

Summary
It is the 1812 season. Colin Bridgerton, a third son, neither the heir nor the spare, is determined to venture into the marriage mart with purpose. Emboldened by Marina Thompson's interest, Colin believes he is on the right path. That is until his best friend Penelope Featherington starts to flirt with him with an ease that renders him breathless. And yet, as he endeavours to return such affections, at first in what he believed to be politeness, Penelope turns her back on him and accepts the courtship of another in the youthful and gossip-loving Lord James Remington.
He is not quite sure why it bothers him so.
Or. A companion piece to The Innocent Game of Flirting, with more flirting, jealousy and an extended epilogue. Can be read as a stand-alone!

Summary
Dear Colin Bridgerton,
As I understand it, this must be a farewell.
Penelope’s fingers shake as she wraps them around her quill. Her eyes slide towards the crumpled pieces of paper scattered at the foot of her desk, wondering if such unrequited fantasy is even worth her tortured ink.
Or. A s1 AU in which instead of a Whistledown column, Penelope writes a letter to Colin the night before he and Marina plan to elope.

Summary
'Come on,' Colin said. 'I ought to get you to bed.'
Penelope released his arms, putting a hand over her heaving bosom. 'Mr. Bridgerton— I am far too intoxicated for that kind of talk.’
***
OR
Penelope drinks too much at Kate and Anthony’s first ball of the season and makes a confession Colin never saw coming.
But that’s not the only surprise of the night. Penelope and Colin’s drunken antics have attracted the attention of a few other members of the Ton, leading society to draw their own conclusions about what could possibly be going on between the pair.

Summary
When fortune hunters seeking the title of Baron Featherington target Penelope, despite her ardent refusals, Anthony Bridgerton finds himself stepping in as a protector. But Penelope isn’t as defenseless as she seems, and Anthony can’t help but look at the young Miss Featherington in a new light. He’d sworn never to fall in love, especially after the disaster with the Miss Sharmas, but surely that doesn’t rule out a marriage of convenience that might grant them both the freedom they desire.

Summary
“I know that a man is supposed to - to insert himself,” she murmurs, hardly believing she has the audacity. “And sow his seed within his wife.” She bites her lip. “But I do not know what that truly means .”
Colin faces straight ahead, his lips rolled between his teeth as if he is fighting a smile.
Penelope feels frustration fizz through her. “Do not laugh at me, Colin Bridgerton,” she hisses under her breath. “It is not my fault such things are kept from young ladies.” Her eyes narrow at him. “I am sure you know all about it.”
“Are you insinuating I am a rake, Penelope?”
OR
Penelope wants to know more about sex. Colin says he'll help her (despite being, you know, a virgin). Chaos ensues

Summary
“This is my fault,” the Viscount said. “I should have taken him to a brothel long ago.” He gulped down his drink. “I should take him now.”
“What use would it have?” Benedict asked. “He’s already engaged, he’d reject the offer in favour of his beloved fiancé.”
“Beloved?” Anthony laughed humorlessly. “He’s too green. I bet you all it’d take for him to abandon this nonsense is to find a willing girl to wet his wick with.”
“What does that mean?” Penelope asked. She did not mean to, but the prospect of Colin saving himself from entrapment prompted her to blurt the question out.
After accidently hearing a rather crude declaration from Colin's older brother, Penelope decides to put the put it to the test.

The course of a life can change in mere moments, as more than a few mismatched couples can attest...
- Lady Whistledown’s Society Papers
Penelope intervenes when a scheming young miss would have trapped Colin into marriage—by taking her place. The best that she can hope for is a marriage of avoidance, rather than outright resentment.
Colin is rescued from entrapment and considers himself the most fortunate of men. If only he could stop malicious gossipmongers such as Lady Whistledown from speaking so unkindly about his future wife.
