    Summary

    Penelope didn’t think much of her conversation with Colin after that night. In fact, she forgot about it almost entirely.

    But then, about a week later, she was at work, eating her lunch and checking her email when she saw it.

    A Night In Paris

     

    A magical night of music, dancing and fancy French foods!

     

    Saturday, 19th July

     

    At 7pm

     

    Aubrey Hall

     

    Even though it was such a short invite, Penelope couldn’t help but read it over and over again. There was no way this was real. Colin couldn’t actually be throwing a prom just because she mentioned in one conversation that she hadn’t been to hers. That was insane.

    But it was also somehow just insane enough that it felt exactly like something Colin would do.

    In which, Penelope can't figure out why Colin would throw an entire prom just because she said she never went to hers. They're just friends with benefits, aren't they?

    Summary

    The first time proposing to Penelope ever crossed Colin’s mind, it was one ordinary Saturday afternoon at Number Five.

    Okay, maybe that was a lie.

    He had thought about it once before.

    A couple of times.

    Or Five times Colin attempts to propose to Penelope and that one time it finally happened.

    Summary

    Of course there were rumors perpetuated about Penelope Featherington and Eloise Bridgerton amongst the wagging tongues of the mamas and gossips. Nothing of substance, just nods and winks about the “two women of no relation” who lived together during the off season. Penelope recognized their rumors as fear based murmurings rather than anyone with a true axe to grind (or information to trade) and steadfastly refused to print them in Whistledown both because everything they were insinuating was untrue and also because the last thing she wanted to do was draw further attention to the truth of her situation, which was more complicated (and scandalous) than any of those mamas would have ever expected.
    And if there was proof, it was staring Penelope right in the face in the form of her pristine white sheets.

    Summary

    Penelope is a content woman. Out from her overbearing mother’s thumb, she likes her job at the Telegraph; she likes her flat with Eloise; she likes her life. It’s quiet and perhaps routine, but it is hers, and she likes that.

    Whenever Colin Bridgerton bursts into town from his many travels, grinning and charming and too clever for his own good, she is reminded of the have-nots of her life.
