    Summary

    If Penelope could choose, she would have preferred to never meet Colin Bridgerton at all. If she never saw his face, if she didn’t know the sound of his voice, if she could make her mind forget him, erase him — she would have chosen it.

    Those were the lies she kept telling herself, anyway.

    Summary

    At least now she knew—
    Knew, without question, that Colin Bridgerton would never love her.
    And with Eloise gone as well, there was truly nothing left to lose.

    So Penelope Featherington stopped being sweet.

    If the world didn’t want her as she was, she would give it something else.
    —————————
    After hearing Colin's words at the end of Season 2, that "he would never court Penelope Featherington", Penelope decides to forget all about propriety and to do as she pleases.

    But what happens when Colin Bridgerton returns to London… and the quiet girl next door is no longer so quiet, no longer so sweet, and no longer his?

    Can love overcome years of resentment, longing, and secrets?
    —————————
    A slow-burn story of identity, desire, courage, growth, and the lengths we go to be truly seen.

    Summary

    “Damn you, both! I would never even consider a widow, I am not looking for anything like that! It simply will not happen, not in your wildest fantasies, Benedict!”

    Penelope's chest begins to ache slightly at the laughter that rings out in response, she had expected to be a topic of conversation, that was only natural. But this was almost cruel, diminishing her to only her status when they had never even laid eyes upon her. Three years spent predominantly alone has weakened her defenses, no longer needing to shrug off whichever slight or insult her family had aimed her way.

    She pulls back her shoulders and reminds herself that she does not have to stay if society proves to be more of this. She will give it a chance, introduce herself to her neighbours (perhaps avoiding the men), attend any balls or soirees she could get an invitation to and simply see if she fits. Her desire for company was not so great that she was willing to suffer for it. If the Ton proved to not be for her, then Abbey Hall awaits her back in Yorkshire. The only thing her late husband truly provided for her, a secure home should the worst happen and she had not managed to produce an heir.
