    Summary

    Anthony doesn’t know what to make of this feeling. He desires her, yes, but along with the itch to bite, to drink, comes a strange sort of ache in his not-so-active heart. He can sense her interest, her care - she’d come all the way out to the country to ask him, personally, about his home, and now that she’s here, he doesn’t want her to leave.

    He wonders if she feels the same.

    -

    In the second week of October, Aubrey Hall welcomes a new visitor. This in itself is not unusual, but the hour during which she appears definitely is.

    Summary

    “Look, Miss Sharma-”
    She turned back towards him, a smirk still on her face, another irritating click of her tongue. “Well, if we’re being formal, Mr. Bridgerton, it’s Flight Lieutenant Sharma, if you don’t mind.” Her smile grew just a little as her eyes flicked down his body. “But people who take me on terrible dates then hate fuck me in their shower can call me Kate.”

    Flt Lt Kate Sharma was stationed at Jurassic World following an accident, the last thing she expected was to fall in love with uptight Anthony Bridgerton while running through the jungle from a dinosaur but now they're back home and they have to figure out what that means

    OR

    Anthony Bridgerton shut himself off from his family after the death of his father and told himself it was for the best, when he moved to Jurassic World to be their Director of Operations. The last thing he expected was to fall in love with the cocky pilot Kate Sharma while running through the jungle from a dinosaur but now they're back home and they have to figure out what that means

    Summary

    As the bangle falls from Kate's wrist just before Anthony can say "I do," to her sister, he realizes the mistake he's made. He thought by marrying Edwina he'd be sparing both him and Kate heartbreakㅡhow wrong he was. With the wedding halted, the brides sister missing, The Queen demanding answers and the Bridgerton name on the line, Anthony is ready to fight all odds for the love he knows Kate deserves. However, it seems perhaps it was not his morality in question when rumors swirl that Kate Sharma did not run away to India, but rather succumbed to grave injuries during a great storm.

    "And Anthony who'd only just learned what it was to love, learned what it was to die inside."

    Summary

    “I believe I must remove myself from the situation, so as to not further your delusions,” She is unable to remove the smile from her face, however, as she turns to leave.

    Anthony’s hand snaps across the short distance, to grasp her gloved one, “If I shall not have a dance, nor a flirt, then please bless me with your unwavering wit instead.”

    Her eyes zero in on their joined hands, her own subconsciously caressing back, “I do not wish to confuse you any longer.”

    “I am far from confused, Miss Sharma.”

    -----------------------

    An alternate timeline where Anthony sees Kate in the Danbury ballroom and can't help himself. A rewrite of s2.

    Anthony feels light and reckless. Kate's plans are disrupted.

    Summary

    Scenes from a Marriage (except this one has a happily ever after) -

    Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma wed under normal circumstances. She knows he does not choose her out of love, but rather out of pure assessment - she would make the perfect Viscountess and foster proper children. Though she is resigned to a life with a loveless marriage, Kate finds surprises in both her husband and herself over time.

    // //

    Essentially different scenes from Kate and Anthony's relationship/marriage that resemble their growth from dumb idiots in love to more self-aware idiots in love (my favorite). Starts off the same way as the show (Kate and Anthony meeting at the park, Kate overhearing his conversation on the terrace at the first ball) but then diverges as Anthony courts Kate directly and pretty much proceeds with the courtship as usual.

    Summary

    “Not really,” she says dryly. “But surely, at your age, you can do better than that.”

    Now he looks bemused. “Better at what?”

    “Flirting.”

    Henry’s brows shoot up to his hairline, the blush on his ears spreading rapidly to his cheeks. “Oh, um, I wasn’t flirting,” he blurts, then almost clamps a hand on his own mouth. “Or—wait, I was! Poorly, uh, now that you mention it.” His throat bobs as he swallows. Whatever nervous energy that has been radiating off him since he sat down next to Amari increases tenfold with impressive speed; it’s like the word flirting flipped a switch in him.

    Amari has a bar she visits weekly when looking for a quick and casual fuck. Enter resident nerd Henry Loomis.

    Summary

    Bi-directional intersubjective coherence—“The Sync”—isn’t magic and it isn’t destiny. It’s an optional, government-monitored upgrade to your relationship, neatly filed with the NHS. It’s also, in Anthony Bridgerton’s opinion, an irresponsible way to hand someone the power to shatter you.

    For Kate Sharma, the Sync is a safety net, not a love story. In the meantime, she has a life: friends, a career, and plenty of good times before she signs up to share her nervous system with anyone.

    They don’t believe in fate. They’re both ignoring biochemistry.

    A modern soulmate-adjacent AU.

    Summary

    The Duke of Hastings crosses paths with Miss Kathani Sharma—a sharp-tongued, fiercely loyal young woman who is far too clever for the world that underestimates her.

    Kate, used to being overlooked in favor of her prettier, softer sister, doesn’t expect much from the aloof Duke. But Simon surprises her. With every shared glance, every charged silence, every quiet walk through the village, he becomes less of the rake society whispers about and more of a constant presence—annoying, infuriating, and far too charming for her own good.

    As friendship deepens into something neither dares name, Simon finds himself hopelessly, irrevocably in love with the one woman who sees through every wall he’s ever built. But with duty, distance, and the scars of the past standing between them, can he find the courage to stop pretending? Or will Kate slip through his fingers just as he begins to realize—she was never just a friend.

    Summary

    When they actually start working together, they both quickly realize that the truth—like their feelings for one another—is far more complicated.
