    Summary

    Penelope felt her cheeks heat. “A forfeit is usually a- a-”

    “A kiss?” he offered.

    Penelope nearly dropped her cue stick. If it were possible, her skin would catch aflame.

    Colin rounded the billiards table, strolling as if he were wandering the paths of Hyde Park. “Or perhaps a piece of clothing?”

    Summary

    When Colin Bridgerton returns to London for a social media sabbatical, Penelope suggests that he crash with her for the duration, however long it might be. Sure, she's been in love with him forever, and sure she has a full-time job, and sure she's a secret romance writer and nobody knows it, but she's really good at hiding things, so it should be fine, right? But when she also suggests that he work with her publisher, all of the secrets she's been so carefully tending start creeping into the light.

    Summary

    “Penelope, they were looking at all of the couples on the dance floor, it is practically customary-”

     

    “I am already aware of that. Colin. And yes, perhaps some members were paying more attention to one of the other pairings on the dance floor.” Her voice sounded a tad foreign to her own ears, dark and fed up. “But not all. Some were staring specifically at us. Fife was staring at us.”

     

    “Is that what this is about?” He questioned. “Who the bloody hell cares what Fife of all people thinks?”

     

    “You do, Colin!” The words burst out of her. “You must care what he thinks!”

     

    “Why on earth would you say that?” His brows furrowed.

     

    Penelope could not say which it was, the genuine confusion in Colin’s voice or the fact that he dared utter the question in the first place, but she felt a fire light within her. Her anger was bright and burning. She was completely and entirely incensed.

     

    And the fault lay with Colin.

     

    “Tell me, Colin,” she began, hating the way her voice gave away her every emotion, “if Fife were to ask you if you were courting me tonight, what would you say?”

     

    Colin and Pen dance. Fife laughs. It brings up bad memories.
