    Summary

    Each season, the single women of the Ton are entered into either the marriage market or the mistress market. Every year, dozens of women who are considered spinsters or who are otherwise unable to enter the marriage market are sold at auction to become a mistress to a gentleman of the Ton.

    Desperate for his brother to become a man, Anthony encourages Colin to purchase a mistress to learn the ways of the world. Colin is hesitant at first but agrees when he comes across an enchanting redhead named Penelope.

    How will Colin accept the struggle of falling in love with his mistress, knowing society will expect him to eventually cast her aside and take a wife? How will his brothers accept his internal struggle?

    Note: There is freeuse in this story, so please skip if this isn't your thing. It is a Polin HEA story.

    Summary

    Penelope is, has always been, well…beautiful. Just…objectively and scientifically speaking. It’s obviously something Colin's had to ruthlessly compartmentalize as they’ve built such a deep friendship over the years, because those kinds of thoughts are a slippery slope and Pen is simply too important to him to ogle her like a horny buffoon, like some kind of disgusting man. But none of that changes the fact that she’s…well. Kind of perfect, really. Like, those…and her…whew. Just…her things. All the things.

    Objectively speaking, of course.

    Or: The life and times of Colin Bridgerton—struggling travel writer, existential crisis-haver, nepo baby, and...Penelope's wingman? Oh boy.

    Summary

    When she opened the door he noticed she was in her pajamas, and her mouth was slightly tainted with ice cream.
    “I told Eloise I want to be left alone, I don’t need anyone consoling me.”
    “Console you? No I’m here to be miserable with you.”
    Penelope’s face softened.
    “Did Marina dump you again?”
    “Yes.” He replied trying to hold his tears.

    Colin and Penelope are dump at the same time and turns out to the best thing that could happen to them.

    “It’s just, like, a twelve-hour drive. It’s not even that bad.”

    “That’s extremely bad. Why aren’t you flying?”

    “Because tickets are insane.”

    “Aren’t you rich?”

    He ignored that. “It’ll be fun! Just you and me? On the road? Seeing some of America’s greatest sights?”

    “Like what? Indiana?”

    “Like… like Chicago!”

    Or, Colin needs a date to a wedding on Christmas Eve. Penelope has nothing better to do.

    Summary

    Penelope and Colin haven't been friends in six years. Not after his cruel words. Not after her personal attack in the aftermath. Hate seems to come easy for the two of them, the simplest alternative to a once-special friendship.

    There's nothing Colin loves more than goading Pen into a fight. And if she's going to be a brat about it? Well, then he's going to have to teach her a lesson.

    Over, and over, and over again.

    AKA the one where lemon desserts keep leading to depravity in the various Bridgerton homes.

    Summary

    Penelope woke up in her bed feeling the biggest headache she had ever experienced in her life.

    She could not understand why people liked alcohol so much, it tasted horrible, it made feel dizzy and vulnerable and the next day she felt she was going to die.

    “PENELOPE FEATHERINGTON!!!” She heard her mother calling for her.

    Portia Featherington enter her bedroom with her face red of anger.

    She dropped a paper in Penelope’s lap.

    “What is the meaning of this!?” Her mother
    asked.

    Penelope looked at the paper confused, it was the newspaper of Lady Whistledown.

    "I would like to end this edition with probably the most scandalous thing that happened in last night’s ball, Penelope Featherington had a change on her appearance, I would not blame you dear reader for not noticing it, this author often forgets her existence, however Colin Bridgerton apparently did notice it, the two of them were seen in a dark corner, outside Lady’s Danbury exchanging something more than their regards."

    Summary

    “After all, friends to lovers are nothing more than “right person, wrong time”. And timing can be a bitch.” Or, 5 Polin moments in time that demonstrate that with the right person, timing comes (eventually).
    “The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.”

    Summary

    Thanks to a typo made by an overworked scheduling nurse, Penelope Featherington was accidentally artificially inseminated, resulting in her becoming a pregnant virgin at the age of 26. And to make matters even more absurd, Colin Bridgerton may or may not be the father.

    Granted, neither of them knew that was actually a possibility.

    For one thing, Colin had never told anyone, aside from Anthony and his mother, about his decision to bank his sperm. And he certainly wasn't ready to tell his best friend about how the sperm he'd banked had recently gone missing. (In retrospect, the clinic being named Pall Mall Family Planning probably should've been considered an omen.)

    And Penelope certainly didn't have any reason to discuss her sex life (or lack thereof) with Colin of all people, so she was perfectly fine with letting him assume that she'd been knocked up by a one-night stand. He didn't even know she was still a virgin!

    In any case, there are plenty of other candidates for the paternity of Penelope's baby. (And this author makes zero promises! ;P)

    Summary

    They started the dance silently. She wondered why he had bothered to ask her to dance at all if he didn’t want to talk. There was so much left to say, but none of it in polite company. And, most importantly, none of what she had to say mattered now. They were both married.

    “I almost forgot to congratulate you-”
    “You do not need to.”
    “But I must-” She insisted.

    “I’d really rather you didn’t.” He said sternly. Colin’s face was unreadable as he couldn’t meet her eyes. Instead she stared at his clenched jaw. She supposed she wouldn’t have wanted his congratulations either after her own wedding, not that he tried to offer any.
    ---
    1814: Colin Bridgerton realizes he is in love. It should be a joyful time, but with competition for Pen's hand and secrets that threaten to ruin them, the pair's far from a happily ever after.

    1816: Penelope Debling is trying to make peace with her new life as a Countess running an estate for an absent husband. She is determined to feel content, but when she has to host Colin Bridgerton, old feelings threaten to unravel her.

    This story will be told in 2 alternating timelines (complete with double ch drops!) until the first timeline catches up to 1816.

    Amidst this turmoil, they all find themselves inexplicably drawn to the same woman: Penelope Featherington.

    Summary

    "Kiss me," Colin announces, his eyes brightening and a crooked smile growing on his lips as though he's just realised he's a genius. "You could kiss me."

    Penelope makes a choked sound. Colin blissfully ignores this.

    "Think about it, Pen!" Colin insists, the gears in his head turning, "We've got a bunch of these holiday parties, who knows who you might end up with next. All we have to do is spend time with each other, which we were going to do anyway—"

    "That's not all we'd have to do!" Penelope interrupts, but Colin's too far in his head to notice that the alarm in her voice matches the panic in her expression.

    "That way if you end up under any more mistletoe, you won't have to kiss anyone you don't want to." He concludes, boyish excitement written all over his features, "It's the perfect solution, Pen."

    Or, after witnessing Penelope kissing Alfie after getting caught under some mistletoe, to have her avoid another mistletoe mishap, Colin comes up with the perfect plan: She kisses him instead.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington decides to ditch her apartment in the city and head to the small town of Mayfair Meadows where she ends up staying with her best friend, Eloise Bridgerton, and her family for the summer until she saves up enough money to get on her feet.

    On her first night on the job as a bartender at the Bridgerton’s Country Club, she unexpectedly and literally runs into Eloise’s older brother, rugged horse trainer, Colin Bridgerton, who just so happened to have returned to town after completing a competition overseas.

    Penelope knew she had to get used to the cowboy lingo, horseback riding, line dancing, and early morning chores but dealing with Colin’s new personality was a whole different rodeo she wasn't sure her heart was prepared for.

    Summary

    When Penelope Featherington finds herself still unmarried at the ripe old age of five and twenty, she is forced to become a governess for a wealthy little girl. Unfortunately, working as a governess affords a woman much fewer freedoms than Penelope is used to, meaning she has no control over the situation when her job brings her uncomfortably close to her ex-fiancé Colin.

    Or, a Jane Eyre Au.

    Why did he have to go and get himself in this situation in the first place?

    1813
    Yes there she was. Beautiful, funny, loving, witty, annoyingly flirting with that Lord Kingsley. Charlotte Huntington.

    1824
    Yes there she was. Absolutely breath-taking. Catching his eye as if for the first time because something had changed in Penelope Featherington and it was something he was interested in yet there was Charlotte too...

    Summary

    After a rocky start, Michael and Pen become friends much to the chagrin of two of the Bridgertons. Together, they cause all sorts of mayhem. One dance was all it took to rustle the hidden feelings and baffle the minds of a charming Bridgerton and a quiet Bridgerton.

    RMB + WHWW Cross-Over- Set after Penelope asked Colin to kiss her in (RMB), and set after Michael comes back from India (WHWW)

    TL;DR: Basically Pen and Michael become friends, they would make the best of friends (or lovers!), and Francesca and Colin aren’t having it.
