    Summary

    When Penelope wakes, blearily, she shifts to her opposite side in the uncomfortable hospital bed.

     

    She sees him there, in the same place he has been for the last several days, from the moment she first awoke.

     

    The man they say is her husband.

     

    She knows this man; she has known him nearly her whole life.

     

    But she does not know Colin Bridgerton as her husband.


    An accident steals five years of Penelope's memory, leaving her baffled and confused as she tries to adjust to the life that is, apparently, hers—a life she had once dreamed of, no less. Colin is Colin, taking care of her every need, but maintaining a careful distance that has her wondering how he fell in love with her in the first place. But as they navigate the strange new world they find themselves in, and as bits and pieces of Penelope's memory return, she learns how it feels to be truly and wholly loved by Colin Bridgerton.

    And how it feels to be betrayed by him.

    Summary

    “You are unmarried, Pen,” Eloise noted, as if it was brand new information. “And you, brother, are also unmarried–”

    “Congratulations on stating the obvious, Eloise,” Colin rolled his eyes. “What does that have to do with anything?”

    “Well, I came up with a perfect solution for this marriage law of stupidity!” Eloise eyes twinkled with mischief and determination. She wanted her plan to succeed and she will see it to happen no matter what. “It is the best plan I've ever had!”

    “Dear Lord, what do you have in mind, sister?” Colin groaned, sensing that nothing good will come out of his sister’s mouth in the next few moments. “I hope there is no dying involved.”

    “You should marry Pen!” Eloise declared, a smile spreading on her face. She looked very proud of her plan. “You should marry her and make her my sister!”

    “What?” Colin managed to choke out as he started coughing.

    “Eloise!” Penelope’s eyes widened at that.

    or

    After the Queen declares new decree, Eloise Bridgerton came up with the perfect plan on how to keep her best friend Penelope Featherington safe from clutches of the disgusting men. By marrying her to her third brother, Colin Bridgerton.

    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.
