Summary
"I should sooner marry a dear friend like Penelope Featherington than any of the ladies you dunces might select for me.”
When Colin Bridgerton inadvertently declares his intent to marry Penelope Featherington, he unwittingly alters both their fates. Wracked with guilt for ensnaring his dearest friend in a situation she never sought, he vows to set things right. But Penelope, ever-practical, refuses to let him sacrifice himself for a match devoid of love.
Determined to make amends, Colin proposes a solution: A courtship of convenience to allow Penelope to garner the attention of other suitors. But, as Colin spends more time in her company, he finds himself increasingly unwilling to let her go.
Or,
What if Colin hadn't been caught saying he'd never court Penelope Featherington? What if, instead, he loudly claimed he wished to marry a friend, perhaps somebody like her, and sweet little Hyacinth kindly let the class know.

Summary
Penelope Featherington would do anything to protect Colin Bridgerton from a bad match—even to herself. When her mother schemes, she runs. When she runs, he follows. And when it’s all over, wedding bells ring. But that’s only half the story.

Summary
“Perhaps you should take a seat,” said Violet.
Colin wouldn't remember the details of what his mother told him next. He would remember her hand warm on his knee, her eyes wide with concern, her voice gentle as velvet. All of it in stark contrast to the devastating news she shared.
Penelope was ruined.

Summary
The one where Colin moves home and things escalate rather quickly.
These two idiots don't realise they're living in their own romcom.
