    Summary

    The gentlemen of the Ton have an ongoing game, of sorts, every season. Who can ruin a fresh-faced debutant first, without getting caught and forced to wed?

    This season is the first in which Colin gets to participate, and he has his sights set on one Miss Penelope Featherington. Will he succeed and win the pot, or will the prying eyes of society catch him in his gamble?

    Summary

    It begins with a locked door.

    No, this was set in motion long before that. When Penelope locked him out of her heart.

    Colin is determined to restore their friendship, but first, they have to navigate one night together. An intimate moment leads to more, until they find themselves in a place neither could have imagined.

    Summary

    Colin would like nothing more than to teach his dearest friend the true art that could be found in a game of pall mall, although he only wished he could do so without the help of the peanut gallery and all their meaningful 'looks'. Penelope, for her part, is determined that a slight against Lady Whistledown will not go unchallenged setting her thoughts upon a most dangerous path.

    Pall mall, rain, and midnight trips to the library. What could possibly go wrong?!

    Summary

    Penelope swears that she will make it Aubrey Hall if it kills her. The universe takes up her challenge.

    Sans carriage and caught in the worst storm that has struck England in living memory, Penelope bumps into a familiar face on the road (what a mystery who could it possibly be!). Their only hope of a shelter in the storm requires a degree of... creative... application of the truth and Penelope finds herself wondering how a young lady is to comport herself when the bounds of propriety have been all but swept away.

    Enter Colin, who has a suggestion or two.

    Summary

    “Colin?” Penelope's voice was barely a whisper.

    “It’s me,” Colin rasped. “I… I need your help.”

    “Colin, what… what happened?” Her voice hitched; the poker she had grabbed to defend against the intruder, forgotten, fell to the floor as she took in his blood-covered frame.

    He leaned against the doorframe, his weight heavy, as if the effort of standing was too much. “I had nowhere else to go.”

    OR

    Penelope and Colin used to be friends before everything fell apart. Now they are indifferent at best and rivals at worst. So, then why is Colin in her doorway in the middle of the night?
