    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is graduating from Oxford and after a long six years of ruthless studies (and hardly any decent sex) she finds herself at a loss with substandard men who are lacking in the ‘satisfaction’ requirements.

    However, when she gets a call regarding a new job opening that seems perfect for her, things seem to be looking up… But after a night in a swanky new club in London, she finds herself in a rather peculiar situation as the man who completely blew her mind last night is sitting opposite her in the hiring chair.

    Oops – that old (Sleeping with the boss but didn’t know he was your boss) trope.

    This is a Penthony story – do not read if you do not like this ship.

    It is a one shot right now; however I may continue in future.

    (This was a little something I wrote over holiday! Enjoy as my other two fics will be update tomorrow)

    Summary

    “Colin!” Penelope shouts, her face lighting up with a smile that had to be a million or two watts, rivaling the brightness of the sun.

    “Pen,” he says, feeling some kind of weight drop from his shoulders, replaced by her when she jumps on him. Her arms wind around his neck and instinctively, he catches her, one hand on the back of her thigh and the other pressed against her lower back.

    “Fuck, I missed you,” she breathes.

    It’s exactly the homecoming he’d wished for. His heart takes off in his chest. She smells like vanilla and lavender, and her whole body is warm and wrapped around him, and he wonders if maybe they could stay like this for the rest of their lives, because God, he’s missed her, too.

    With his face buried in her neck, Colin murmurs, “Yeah, me, too.” Neither of them really let go, and he doesn’t want to read into it that much because—he doesn’t even know. Because he’s scared, maybe. Probably. Because he doesn't understand it and doesn’t want to. Because for all his exploration of caves and canyons, he isn’t sure he’s ready for whatever he’d find the second he reads the text of their friendship and discovers something hidden between the lines.

    Summary

    She was perplexed and very aroused. It had been four solid weeks of friendship. They had been alone many times since, and not a single move was made or a hint of flirtation. Now here he was, undressing her with his gaze openly at a ball. Penelope pressed her lips together and tilted her head challenging his manner.

    “Colin,” she took a small step forward, her chest was touching his. “What are you thinking about?”

    Colin did not miss a beat, he brought his hand up to her shoulder, brushing her hair back then placing his hand on her bare skin. He leaned over, close enough that his lips ghosted her skin.

    “I am thinking about what I would like to eat next.” She felt his fingers tracing her shoulder, sliding up the side of her neck to just under her ear then back down.

    Imagine these regency balls had rooms where couples could escape to and have their own kind of fun.

    A continuation of the story "Ice Cream and Lemon Custard."

    Summary

    "I want to feel you inside me."

    When Penelope made her occasional and very ladylike visit to Colin Bridgerton's chambers, she did not expect to run into the man who was supposed to be off on his Grand Tour. Nor did she expect to find him naked. And she most definitely did not expect him to demand she lie down in his bed before him.
