Summary
And when you wrote about Miss Thompson?” His harsh voice and eyes darkened by fury made her flinch, taking a step back. Miss Thompson—Marina hadn't been Miss Thompson for a long time. She had been Lady Crane for two years now, but it seemed Colin still hadn't gotten used to it, or perhaps he refused to accept it. Penelope was on the verge of falling apart. So that’s what this was all about—about Marina and the chance she had stolen from him to marry her. Her heart pounded in her chest, and a sensation akin to nausea settled in her stomach. Her mouth grew dry, and her ears rang as she tried to find the right words to defend herself. But none came.
Colin and Penelope meet on the night before the wedding, on the dark little street in front of Madame Delacroix’s shop. Events unfold differently than in the show, and Colin doesn’t seem as forgiving. Penelope accepts his criticisms and unfounded accusations, and realizes one thing: he has never gotten over his former love, Marina Thompson, and she was directly responsible for the loss of his engagement. -

Summary
On Thursday evening, she arrived home from the office a little earlier than usual and was surprised to find the house wrapped in the mouth-watering aroma of roast beef. Since when did Alfred cook roast beef? she wondered, hurrying into the kitchen to make sure there wasn't a thief in their own home.
It was not a thief. No... it was far worse.
Colin Bridgerton was standing in her kitchen as though he belonged there, laughing at something her boyfriend had just said while casually turning a juicy steak that sizzled enticingly in the pan.

Summary
She wasn't particularly surprised to find the kitchen light still on or to hear the muffled sounds drifting from inside. After all, the house was full of Bridgerton children, and a few of them were adults in every sense of the word already. Anthony, the eldest of the siblings, was even engaged. So it could have been anyone. Or maybe not. Maybe it had to be him, rummaging through drawers in search of a spoon while a tub of ice cream sat on the kitchen counter, glistening with condensation.

Summary
Penelope shifted slightly in her sleep on the bench, and Colin immediately leaned forward to keep her from falling. The seat was small and uncomfortable, but for the moment it served its purpose well enough. The idea of taking her away from London to protect her had come to him suddenly after an entire day spent trying to determine how best to save her. He was certain she did not want this marriage. She simply could not.
Or..
Colin kidnaps Penelope in the dead of night from her own home, solely to protect her... but does his sweet, innocent friend truly need protection?🖤 -

Summary
It had been a damned Saturday today, she thought, because she had made up a pathetic excuse to stay away the whole day, simply saying she had a manuscript to finish at the office. It was a lie, but Alfred believed it so she had spent the whole day staring at a blank laptop screen, trying to write a few words and that had been her entire day, staring into nothing at what was gone and would never come back again.
