    Summary

    A story in fifteen parts, in which the angel Castiel finds himself put in an untenable position, and consequentially loses his grace. In which he goes on a roadtrip with a demon, discovers the delights of tequila and french fries and pie, plays a starring role in a virgin sacrifice, is deflowered by his favourite Winchester, and then gets some very unpleasant news indeed.

    (Written mid season 4)

    Summary

    “I am capable of multi-tasking.” Anthony replied, and as if to prove a point, he ran a hand along the exposed skin of her thigh. “And even in times such as this, rest assured that I am always interested in your thoughts. In fact, I would like to know if –“

    Two sharp knocks to the door cut him off. Kate immediately shoved Anthony off her, nearly sending him crashing into his desk.

    “Brother, have you seen Miss Sharma?” Francesca asked from the hallway. “I was told that she had arrived, but I have yet to see her. I do not know where she could be.”

    “She’s here!” Anthony called.

    Kate's eyes widened in betrayal.

    “You’re not Colin.”

    “I’m not,” Anthony agrees, hardly sparing her a glance. “Indeed, many find that to be my most appealing attribute.”

    “We should speak to her individually. She might give her blessing then, but she might need time…”

    Summary

    "Bridgerton, you shouldn't be looking for the diamond. You should be looking for a woman. One ready to be a viscountess, and a mother. One not caught in the flurry of her debut and end of her childhood. One with experience, a sense of responsibility–”

    “You’d have me shop the shelf rather than the dancefloor? Tell me, do you have someone in mind already? A spinster cousin? Has Lady Danbury tasked you with finding a match for a wallflower she has taken under her wing? How desperate is the girl?”

    or
