Summary
Penelope Featherington is an expert at being invisible. Deep in the throes of her PhD research, away from friends and family in a small Aberdeen attic, she has perfected the act of hiding her struggles from everyone. When a trip to London confirms her worst fears, she retreats to her cosy sanctuary, ready to let the world forget her entirely.
But someone was paying closer attention than she realised.
While everyone else accepted her polite texts and vague excuses, Colin Bridgerton noticed. Haunted by a moment of thoughtless betrayal and a sudden, terrifying need to bridge the distance between them, he follows her into the cold Scottish rain to join her under the rafters of her tiny attic. -

Summary
After her secret identity is unmasked by her best friend and cruel mother, Penelope Featherington has no choice: she must leave London. Fast.
Her very good friend and traveller Colin Bridgerton is set to depart for his second Grand Tour at dawn. He’s the perfect escape, but there’s a catch: he just publicly declared in her own garden that he would never dream of courting her. Will he be willing to help her run away, with the risk that entails for him? And if he does, will she survive being forced into the tight quarters of a carriage and the rolling decks of a ship with the man who just broke her heart?”Set after season 2, this is a story about forced proximity, high-seas adventure, hurt feelings, and slow (and then very fast) realisations. Did I mention there was only one bed?

Summary
“It is vexing—far more vexing than you can possibly imagine!” Colin burst out. “Not merely the loss of your friendship, but the prospect of losing you entirely, Pen.”
He drew a deep, uneven breath before beginning to move toward her with slow, deliberate steps. Only when scarcely an inch remained between them did he finally stop.
“I would sooner allow myself to be utterly ruined than endure a world in which you are no longer mine to cherish, Penelope. That is a loss I find myself wholly incapable of surviving.”
“But we are both engaged to other people, Colin!” Penelope cried breathlessly. “We are to be married, to entirely different people—”
“I do not care!” Colin interrupted fiercely.
He stepped even closer, desperation burning plainly within his eyes.
“Damn me to hell if you must, Penelope, but I shall not permit this torment to continue a moment longer.”

Summary
During a perfectly normal study session, Colin asks what he swears is an innocent question.
Because it seems like having built-in pillows on one’s chest would make laying on one’s stomach and studying for an upcoming English exam almost comfortable.
Then Penelope invites him to see for himself exactly how comfortable it is, and Colin’s afternoon takes a decidedly unexpected turn.
