    Summary

    Once upon a time, she didn’t think she’d ever even have a date night with Colin, let alone a weekly one. Yet, here she was, sitting across the table from him and determined to win the Shopping Challenge he'd issued. After all, there was the choice of movie on the line for the day after, and she would be damned if he made her sit through another of his horror flicks just so she’d scamper into his lap, the sneak.

     

    The rustle of plastic bags was a cacophonous symphony that she simply couldn’t wait to dig into. This time tomorrow, he would be watching 50 First Dates with her. “So,” she began, taking in his smug expression, “let’s see who knows the other best.”

    Summary

    It is the Winter of 1914 and England is suffering under unprecedented cold conditions. Not to be deterred by this the Mamas Featherington and Bridgerton correspond to put an early end to the feud between their daughters.

    This isn’t meant to be how it happens? Penelope isn’t meant to see the Bridgertons until next season! What will happen if she is forced to meet them at their country home? Eloise certainly won’t be pleased. At least Colin won’t be there…

    Or, the one where we can see just how quickly Colin forgets that he is a gentleman if forced to be alone with Penelope in a remote location for more than fifteen minutes.

    Summary

    After years of friendship, Colin finally realizes that he's in love with Penelope. Now all he has to do is work up the nerve to ask her to be his wife, but with the way things are going, his meddlesome matchmaking siblings might reveal his feelings before he gets the chance.

    The first time Penelope arrives to join them for tea, Colin nearly drops his saucer (say nothing of his jaw) at the sight of her, for she's the very picture of a rose in full bloom, swathed in deep red silk, fire-kissed hair curling around her shoulders like candlelight.

    He doesn't realize he's been shamelessly staring until Anthony calls him out on it, fixing him with a look that's equal parts vexed and amused, and asks, "Are you ill, brother? Only you seem a bit flushed and out of breath."

    "Colin does seem rather thirsty," Benedict observes. "Perhaps he would like a tall refreshing glass of ginger lemonade."

    Without waiting for a reply, Benedict grabs a glass off of one of the nearby trays, places it in Colin's hand, and purposely waits for him to take a large sip before adding, "Ginger is, after all, Colin's favorite flavor…in all things."

    Colin chokes on his lemonade.
