Summary
"You are a flower ready to bloom, Miss Featherington."
After the events of last season, Penelope is throwing herself into writing Lady Whistledown. The only thing that stands in her way is her meddlesome family. The best way to escape from them? Why, getting married, of course. When Lady Danbury offers to mentor Penelope, she begins her quest to turn from simple wallflower, to blossoming rose... or at the very least, a daisy.
Colin was finding out the hard way that this flower had thorns.
Returning home for the social season, Colin is feeling, well, rather despondent. His best friend did not return a single one of his letters, and now she is referring to him as Mr. Bridgerton. When he realizes that Penelope's desire is to find a husband this year, Colin is determined to work his way back into her good graces, through helping instruct her in the ways of wooing.
"We will turn you into the loveliest, most enchanting flower the ton has ever seen."
But what happens when these secret lessons to find Penelope love work perhaps a little too well? And on the very last person they intended: Colin himself?

Summary
“Hey,” Colin said sheepishly, anxiously brushing his hand behind his neck. “I’ll take your virginity if — you know — if you want me to.”
Platonic sex, sex between friends, friends having platonic sex.
It won’t be a problem, right?
Or the classic: ‘I’ll take your virginity but don’t fall in love with me” finds everything they’re looking for in a person who ‘just wants to get over with having sex for the first time so they can get over the mental hurdle and start dating around.”

Summary
Colin Bridgerton broke her heart so many times she lost count. And yet she still loved him, holding out hope that one day he would love her back. Maybe if she stayed close, watched over him, and always be free for dances at every party, he would love her back.
But Colin would never love her. He made sure of it this season when he perilously broke her heart more than once in a season when he looked for Marina, danced with Marina.... and lastly asked for Marina's hand in marriage, a girl he barely knew, a girl he never grew up with, a girl that was not her, Penelope.
And so, she let go. After the aftermath of his scandal, throughout the years they remained as close friends writing letters back and forth, having a dance when he returned from his travels… until one day, she stopped writing back and she was dancing with someone else. Colin was not having this.
Retelling of Romancing Mr.Bridgerton with the Tv show crossover - Based on the last ep of the TV Show (filling in the gaps of the show) and some stuff from Book 4. Canon Compliant and Divergent.

Summary
After her falling out with Eloise and deciding to forsake her love for Colin, Penelope Featherington vows to forge a new life for herself. With the new season on the horizon, Penelope plans to find a husband and continue her life as a writer without interference from her family. But her quest for independence is thwarted by two very distracting things: a manhunt for Lady Whistledown by the Queen of England and one very annoying man who has reentered her life dressed remarkably like a rogue and demanding her attention.
Meanwhile, Colin has returned from another year abroad with a new swagger and a purpose. But when he's rejected by the one person he thought was his biggest champion, Colin finds himself dejected. In a desperate attempt to win her back, he promises to help her find the life she longs for. But as Penelope attracts more attention, Colin finds himself confronted with feelings he never thought he would experience, least of all for his best friend.
