Summary
Colin Bridgerton had it all: a beautiful wife, four beautiful children, and a fulfilling career.
Saying he’s content is an understatement; he loves this life.
That is until he’s yanked from this reality and finds himself in the hospital, awakening from a coma.
It turns out he is not married and never has been. Penelope’s just his friend, his children don’t exist, and his perfect job is merely a pipe dream.
On a journey of rehabilitation, self-discovery, and grief, Colin must come to terms with the life he has and build it into the one that he dreamed of.
…trying to convince the girl he’s known as his wife of their wonderful life together shouldn’t be too tricky, right?

I'll Hold You, I'll Know You by SunburstsandSpearmint

Summary
Colin knows that touch has always been something he just does. Touching for touching’s sake, nothing more, for friendship, for comfort, to show affection - it's always been something he’s good at. Something he does and something he seeks out. Considering he knows this and does this, it takes him an embarrassingly long time to realize that Penelope, well, doesn’t.
Or,
Colin Bridgerton is what you might call a touchy person. And this makes Penelope Featherington’s brain short circuit with anxiety, all while trying to avoid the fact that she desperately wants to be touched.
A story in eighteen parts about how Colin and Penelope learn to hold each other, and fall in love in the process.

Summary
It was messed up. She knew it was. But from the day it had started she hadn't been strong enough to put an end to it.
She was never going to have Colin Bridgerton. Not really. He was too… and so… and she was…
Just Penelope.
Dorky friend of the younger sister.
So if she couldn’t have him in the way she wanted, she would take any piece she could get.
---
Colin and Penelope have fallen into a messy and complicated friends with benefits situation, that only gets even moreso when Penelope has another man showing interest and she and Colin are thrown into forced proximity.

Summary
When Penelope Featherington made her debut into society, she harbored no great expectations. She had resigned herself to the notion that her beauty was unlikely to draw a admirers. Yet, she found solace in one constant: Colin Bridgerton, was always there to claim her hand for a dance.
But with Colin’s attentions fixed on Marina Thompson, Penelope knew her heart was destined for heartbreak. How, then, had she found herself in the dimly lit garden with Colin’s fervent plea? He begged her—her—to ensnare him in marriage, not Marina.

Summary
“Read it again Pen,” Colin said softly.
She looked back at him, eyes wide and blinking, biting her lower lip, drawing in his attention.
Until today, not an impure thought had passed through his mind of Penelope. He suddenly felt like the wind was knocked out of him. His eyes snapped up to hers, her blue eyes wide and blinking rapidly. He wasn’t sure what to say. It felt like the air had changed around them. All he could think about was her in that moment. Touching her hair, caressing her cheeks, kissing her lips.
He took a deep breath. He could not make sense of the impulses he was having, “please, read it again.”
She swallowed, turned back to the page, and started reading it again. He listened to her sweet voice recite the words of Byron. Did she pick this poem on purpose? ‘How could she’ he reasoned, ‘she’s never seen this book, how would she know’. He was so lost in thought; he didn’t realize she had finished. He wasn’t ready for her to stop reading, what was the last part? She looked over at him again. Had she moved closer to him? Or was he leaning into her?
“Again,” He said, wondering if she could hear him as it came out almost as a whisper.

Summary
“Hey,” Colin said sheepishly, anxiously brushing his hand behind his neck. “I’ll take your virginity if — you know — if you want me to.”
Platonic sex, sex between friends, friends having platonic sex.
It won’t be a problem, right?
Or the classic: ‘I’ll take your virginity but don’t fall in love with me” finds everything they’re looking for in a person who ‘just wants to get over with having sex for the first time so they can get over the mental hurdle and start dating around.”

Summary
Penelope Featherington has been quietly in love with Colin Bridgerton for nine years. She's written it all down—every small moment, every unreturned feeling—in a document meant for her eyes only. Colin, meanwhile, has spent those same years being charming and oblivious.
Then Colin calls off his wedding and accidentally discovers what Penelope's been hiding. Suddenly, he can't stop thinking about the woman he never noticed. He wants to know her—really know her. And Penelope has no idea why he's finally paying attention.
As friendship turns into something more, Colin faces an impossible problem: he's falling for her, but she doesn't know how he learned to see her. The truth might destroy everything. But the lies might be worse.
