    Summary

    “Colin?” she called and he pulled himself out of his thoughts, thinking that he really missed the way she said his name.

    “Perhaps we can change that,” he responded.

    An adorable frown formed on her forehead, “Pardon?”

    Colin didn't know where the conversation was heading but spoke anyway. “I could make some introductions. Pen, anyone would be lucky to court you.”

    Penelope's frown deepened, “I- That's totally unnecessary, Colin.”

    He was puzzled, didn't she want to marry? “Why not? You could meet someone and-”

    “There's really no need to go to all this trouble,” she said with a tone of finality.

    “But-”

    “I have a lover, Colin!” she blurted.

    Summary

    "It's a boy!"

    The nurses placed a bundle in Penelope's arms.
    He was perfectly healthy, which was a miracle considering that Penelope did not know she was pregnant until a few hours ago.

     

    Or
    The one where Penelope has a cryptic pregnancy.

    Summary

    Penelope is convinced to attend the university’s annual winter carnival under the promise she’ll see the rarely-in-London-anymore Colin Bridgerton. When she does spot him, however, he’s running the football team’s kissing booth.

    Which makes her want to throw up, quite frankly.

    Perplexingly, it also puts certain things into motion Colin discovers he is not prepared for.

    Summary

    Some love stories begin with an unexpected meeting.

    Colin and Penelope’s began with a promise.

    They were only fifteen when they fell in love, convinced that what they had was simple, eternal, unbreakable. For years, it was.

    But time has a way of pulling people apart. Colin became consumed by work, travel, and responsibilities. Penelope stayed behind, filling the spaces he left empty, until she began to disappear from his sight altogether.

    What was once effortless love became silence. What was once certainty became doubt.

    After eighteen years together and fourteen years of marriage, one devastating argument changes everything. A slammed door. A business trip. A goodbye that never came.

    Penelope refuses to let their story end without a fight. Determined to save the marriage she still believes in, she follows Colin before the distance between them becomes impossible to cross.

    But some journeys change everything.

    And some doors should never be opened unless you’re ready for what’s waiting on the other side.

    Penelope wasn’t.

    Because when she finally finds Colin, he isn’t alone.
