    Summary

    On Thursday evening, she arrived home from the office a little earlier than usual and was surprised to find the house wrapped in the mouth-watering aroma of roast beef. Since when did Alfred cook roast beef? she wondered, hurrying into the kitchen to make sure there wasn't a thief in their own home.

    It was not a thief. No... it was far worse.

    Colin Bridgerton was standing in her kitchen as though he belonged there, laughing at something her boyfriend had just said while casually turning a juicy steak that sizzled enticingly in the pan.

    Summary

    It's Penelope Featherington's first season out. She was hoping to remain mostly ignored by the ton, not quite ready for the marriage mart, despite her later than average debut. Only, she doesn't anticipate her beauty and family's prestige to make her this season's diamond. She remains unaware until it's too late, that more than just the gentleman of the ton are watching her every move.

    Summary

    “Look,” he says, his voice low, his eyes cast down. “You’re not, like, wrong, exactly.” His cheeks are flushed a delightful pink, and Penelope thinks, not for the first time, how good he would look in makeup. He has the features for it, cheeks begging for blush and those full lips. Long, fluttering lashes.

    “Wh-what?” she stutters, the intoxication of having him this close making her lose it, just a little.

    “Since Marina, I can’t… I can’t. You know. Finish.”

    Penelope blinks at him. “Um. Okay.” She doesn’t know what to say.

    “I kind of have this pretty specific thing I need to happen for me to, you know.” God, he’s still speaking. Colin Bridgerton is talking to her about his orgasm. The negronis are suddenly making themselves known in her limbs and chest. She feels woozy. Are they really talking about this? “And usually I have a way I manage it, but since Marina it’s just not working.” He bites his lip and for the first time since he leaned over the bar, his eyes flicker to hers nervously. “It’s actually making me go a tiny bit insane, I think.”

    OR: Colin can't come. Penelope offers to help - as friends, of course.
