    Summary

    In a world where life is moving rapidly, you’re lucky if you find the one person who will steady life around you. Mute it. Give you peace.
    Sometimes that person is the only reason you walked into that bar in Queens.
    Sometimes that person was there to prove everything you thought about yourself was wrong.

    It’s the law of inevitability— a key component of The Improbability Principle, which states that among all possible outcomes of a random event, at least one must occur.
    A life of decisions and situations will always bring you here: to the person you were bound to be changed by, forever.

    This story follows two people who are running in opposite directions, but in turn are looking for exactly the same thing.

    This is the Art of Falling.

    And this is the Art of Falling out of love.

    A spectre of probabilities that lead to where you least expect it.

    Or

    Penelope Featherington needs to experience heartbreak, and Colin Bridgerton needs to experience love.

    Summary

    “Pen.” Colin’s voice had changed.

    She turned, facing him, and his whole demeanor had shifted. It was no longer the carefree Colin standing next to her anymore, but a man that demanded respect, and, she knew, obedience.

    “Y-yes?” she stuttered, startled by his new presence and fighting an unfamiliar roaring in her ears as his slate eyes pierced hers.

    “No, that won’t do.” He shook his head slightly. “You know what to call me.”

    Gulping down heat that bloomed in her stomach, Penelope almost whimpered. “Yes…Sir?”

    “Good girl,” he soothed, his voice low and rough, sending unexpected shivers to her core.

    Aka: Colin apologizes to Pen by offering to become her sugar daddy. But first, there are some rules.

    Summary

    When Colin agrees to work the annual Flagons & Flails Renaissance Festival with Penelope this summer, she expects him to be disappointed by the overall, well, nerdiness of it all.

    Instead, Penelope finds him actually paying attention to her, noticing her, and even appreciating her a bit. Certainly more than he ever did before.

    And she kind of thinks it might destroy her.

    Summary

    When forty year old Colin meets a vibrant twenty three year old Penelope at a restaurant bar, he tries to avoid her advances, before giving in entirely.

    --

    When she pulls back, he mourns the loss, but then she asks, “do you want to kiss me?”

    And in that moment, he remembers how young she is. He looks down into her eyes, and sees the uncertainty. The bravado, confidence, it teeters on a knife's edge, a balancing act of substantial proportions. She needs him to take over.

    The first brush of their lips together sends a shiver down his spine. It’s soft, sweet, tentative, and when she moans against his mouth, something inside of him snaps. He grabs her face between his hands, holding it steady while he devours her. Their tongues become embroiled with one another, and the sounds she’s making—god—he wants to eat her alive, all of a sudden. When he feels her body pressed into his, her soft breasts rubbing against his torso, his arousal spikes. But this isn’t his first rodeo. He’s not twenty three.
