Summary
Eloise Bridgerton has never been one to follow tradition—marriage, romance, and the stifling expectations of high society hold no appeal. At 23, she is a fiercely independent solicitor, pouring her energy into civil liberties cases rather than entertaining the notion of love. To her, relationships are nothing more than distractions, constraints disguised as happy endings. She is determined to build a life on her own terms—defined by ambition, intellect, and freedom—not by a ring on her finger.
But does love really demand sacrifice? Can she have both? She never even considered the question—never wanted to—until she met him.
A dorky, lanky botanist with caramel-blond hair and the bluest eyes she had ever seen.
Philip-fucking-Crane.

Summary
A re-imagination of Eloise and Phillip's story.
What if they'd met sooner?POV Phillip — Work in progress with WEEKLY UPDATES:
- Part One — Before (Chapter 1)
- Part Two — Two Worlds Collide (Chapter 10)
- Part Three — After The Fall-Out (Chapter 23)
- Part Four — Scandal (Chapter 33)
- Part Five — With Love (Chapter 42)
- Part Six — Yes (Chapter 52)
Inspired by the books and series.
This will be a +/-130K story.Little sample:
“I know, I know,” Eloise burst out as soon as he set foot in the library. “I’ll apologise in a moment and fib something about being overcome by the sweltering heat.” She turned and noticed that it was him and not one of her brothers or sisters. “Oh,” her mouth drawn in a perfect o-shape.
“Then we, at least, had the same idea,” Phillip said. “I came to apologise, and I would offer you the same kindness to pretend it was from the heat.”
“It was.”
“Yes, indeed.”- Language:

Redefined Love in Full Bloom by FATE_LOVER21

Summary
Eloise Bridgerton is determined to not let her spinsterhood define her. She intends to continue to break the status quo and stray away from the herd, but not in an act of rebellion but in an act of empowerment.
She is determined to never wed, to never have children like the rest of her siblings and is determined to live a life that is fulfilled and happy without a man.
But it takes only one letter from a certain Sir Phillip Crane to completely alter her off course. What does she do when he gives her the opportunity to work for him? What does she do when she meets her pen pal and his mischievous children?
Read her journey of self-discovery and love as Eloise tries to redefine what it really means to be a woman in society.
Phillip doesn't want to repeat the generational cycle of trauma he received from his childhood onto his children. He puts duty and honor above his own happiness; so much so he does not believe he is worthy of love due to his bad luck.
But Miss Bridgerton's arrival into his life threatens to alter his entire trajectory and wreck his plans forever.
My take on S5 of Bridgerton with Eloise and Phillip as the leads.

Summary
Never before had Eloise felt this alone, for the first time she did not have Penelope by her side or her family to confide in. For the first time she felt unsure as to who she was. All because of a secret she was forced to keep.
But perhaps she isn’t as alone as she may feel.
Or a look into the Bridgerton dynamics through Eloise
