Summary
What if Colin Bridgerton told Penelope, "You are not a woman" before he leaves for his first tour?
What if that made Penelope reconsider Colin and be open to something new...and she forms new frienships over the off season that empower her.
And what if, just as Penelope merely wants to return a borrowed book she overhears an enlightening conversation?
This is the conversation she hears, and the consequences it sets in motion.

Summary
He believed he was losing his mind. The scent that stalked him through his dreams and taunted him in the light of day — surely it was only a fantasy, conjured by solitude and longing. You cannot chase what isn't real.
Then, in a single heartbeat, everything flipped.

Summary
All his weight is on her. Like, all of it. His face has landed somewhere near her hair, his face buried in a cloud of sweet-smelling curls. She smells like orange blossom, like the Jo Malone bottle currently sitting in Colin’s pile of gifts for her.
And he waits for her to wriggle and push him off but instead she - she moans.
More of a breathy whimper, actually, and it is, frankly, pornographic. There is no mistaking it, and something hot and sparkly starts to fizz in him, laughter bubbling in his throat.
So he doesn’t get off her. He just lifts his head. “Pen, did you just-”
Her face is red, scrunched up, her eyes shut. “Shut up,” she breathes.
Delight flutters through him at her reaction, something fizzling and crackling under his skin. He cannot help the wicked smile that breaks across his face. “Oh my god, you like it? You like me squashing you?”
OR - during Christmas at Aubrey Hall, Colin discovers Penelope enjoys getting crushed

Summary
God, I can't sleep. Your curls torment me, blazing like hellfire whenever I close my eyes. I'm going mad, I swear it. How many nights have I lain awake, fists clenched in my sheets, imagining running my fingers, through those silken strands. The almost taste of your skin lingers on my lips, my tongue, as I lose myself, as I chase my release, thinking of you my copper-crowned goddess.
——
Colin writes something he really shouldn't have. Pen reads something never meant for her eyes.

Summary
Penelope is a Cambridge student pursuing her MPhil in Global Affairs with a Communication and Media Focus.
But very few know that she is also Princess Penelope, daughter of the Duke of Clarence—the brother of the King of England.
When her uncle abdicates the throne, her entire world is turned upside down. Suddenly, she becomes first in line to the crown. She convinces the Royal Household to let her maintain her anonymity for one final year—but the catch? She must be accompanied by a bodyguard at all times.
Enter Colin Bridgerton, the boy she once loved from afar when she was younger, returning after years abroad to pose as her suitemate at uni and guard her in secret.
Neither of them is prepared for how dangerous, or how heartbreakingly close, the lines between duty and desire will become.
