    Summary

    When Violet Bridgerton invites Penelope Featherington to be a guest at her destination wedding in the BVI, Penelope is grateful for the chance to relax and spend time with her second family. However, she's surprised to find old, (supposedly) unrequited feelings resurface when Colin Bridgerton shows up with his new girlfriend, Marina Thompson.

    (a.k.a. undeniable chemistry, a sprinkle of jealousy, a little white lie, and lots of beach holiday clichés ... let's do this.)

    Summary

    Once Eloise leaves Colin's room, Penelope and Colin's proximity changes its tone; maybe it’s all in Penelope’s head, but there’s an intimacy here as she burrows into Colin’s naked chest, like it’s where she belongs. It feels like she does. It feels like he’s supposed to hold her like this, captivate her with the heat of his flesh, the depths of his breaths, and the strength of his hold. It feels a little like home, and it devastates her to think like that.

    But this is what she’s missed the most. These unparalleled moments where there are no guards or boundaries or weirdness. The parts of him that make her feel the softest, when he’s affectionate with her through touch, like yes, he missed her as in her personality, but also her as in the feeling of her skin and the softness of her hair, because she’s missed those things from him, too. The quiet of his voice as he speaks only to her, the caress of his fingers when he tries to get her attention, the warmth of him when he invites her into his bed so he can hold her like this.

    or; Penelope and Colin are forced to be touching at all times.

    Summary

    “What do students care about? How do you… connect with them?”

    Michaela blinked at him. “The same way you connect with anyone,” she said, at the very same time that Phillip said, “You don’t.”

    Or, ex-archaeologist Colin starts a YouTube channel to share his love for historical foods, and he (desperately) needs someone to teach him how to cook.

    Summary

    At four-and-forty, Colin Bridgerton found himself wanting more from life than travel. Something steady. Something that lasted.

    What he didn’t expect was to propose to a freshly debuted girl—Penelope Featherington—in a desperate bid to salvage her reputation.

    Who cared about a twenty-seven-year age gap, anyway?
    Apparently, Colin did.
