    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is sick as a dog and trying to power through and be miserable on her own. Colin shows up unexpectedly, insisting on taking care of her, with just one small problem. They just had a horrible fight and aren't speaking.

    --

    “You shouldn’t be here,” she mumbles, suddenly feeling more moody and irritated by his presence. “You’ll get sick too.”

    He ignores her and a moment later, she hears the sound of running water from a different part of her flat. She’s still confused.

    When he returns, she stands up and crosses her arms, trying to seem steadier. She’s not.

    “What are you doing here?”

    “You’re sick, Pen. I came to take care of you.”

    “I don’t need you to—”

    “Please,” he begs, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Please just… I started the shower for you. Let me finish up in here.”

    Summary

    In her fourth year teaching kindergarten, Miss Penelope Featherington thinks she’s seen it all—identical twins who wore matching outfits every day and were impossible to tell apart, a little boy who only talked about himself in the third person, a girl who managed to find a pair of scissors in the cafeteria and cut essentially all her hair off… This year, though, Chloe Bridgerton catches her by surprise. She’s never met a child who so immediately captured her heart. Chloe’s not the only Bridgerton pulling on her heartstrings either. Her “easy on the eyes,” charming father Colin captures her attention in an entirely different way. She’s never had a hard time remaining professional with her students’ parents in the past, but this man might just test every rule and guideline she tries to live her life by—both within the walls of her classroom and outside it too. To make matters more complicated, sweet little Chloe seems determined to become a successful matchmaker on her very first try.

    --

    Or, the one where Pen is a kindergarten teacher, Colin is a single Dad, and they fall in love in part thanks to the meddling of a very special little girl.

From the very beginning, though, they see each other and forge a bond that becomes a testament to finding comfort and safety in love and in the family we choose, not just the one we're born into.

    Summary

    Penelope is a 25-year-old book editor in London, enjoying a life where she shares a flat with her best friend, gets promoted quickly at work, and spends her time with her friends and pseudo-family, the Bridgertons. She has all the makings of a happy life.

    She's spent years adjusting to the ache in her gut. She's always expected to live with it, to grow around it, and to maybe find some semblance of happiness knowing she would never soothe the pain that consumed her. She tries to put herself out there, to move on, to accept reality. No matter how hard she tries to fall out of love with him, Colin always finds ways to worm his way back into her heart, putting her right back where she started.

    Will she be able to move on? Will she figure out how to live with the pain? Or will the last thing on earth she ever expected to happen finally become real? Could Colin Bridgerton ever love Penelope Featherington?
