Summary
After turning thirty, Penelope decides she's done waiting for the perfect man and wants to be a mother. With the help of an esteemed fertility clinic, she selects a sperm donor and gets pregnant on her own. Scared to deal with the judgement of others, she lies and says that her ex boyfriend who moved away is the father.
Though she and Colin have drifted in recent months, when he finds out her news, he vows to support her and show up for her and her baby. Her feelings for him muddy the waters, and she does her best to keep him at arms length during such an emotional time.
--
It all started with a brochure.
When Philippa struggled to get pregnant with her second, she and Albion looked into every option they could think of. At another painful Featherington family tea, Portia rattled off a list of old wives tales of sex positions they could try, earning groans and gags from all four of her daughters. Penelope glanced at the table, where the brochure lay forgotten, the words “Mayfair Fertility Clinic and Sperm Bank” sprawled in elegant typeface across the front, as though it were a fine dining menu and not an institution where men jerked off into cups.

Summary
A warmth spread through her, consuming her, until even the air seemed too thick to draw into her lungs. She pressed her palms against her knees, as though to steady herself, yet her mind would not be stilled. She saw again that brief flash of his smile, the one that had undone her entirely, and her breath trembled.
What foolishness this was. What wicked foolishness. And yet… she could not summon the shame she knew she ought to feel. Her sisters often spoke of temptation as something that hunted the innocent, but Penelope could not help but feel, in that moment, that it was she who hunted it.
OR
Deemed hopeless on the marriage market and quietly sent away to a convent, Penelope spends five quiet years trying to tame her heart before taking her vows. But when a young farmer begins assisting Sister Agatha, his gentle presence awakens feelings she ought never to harbour. Try as she might, Penelope cannot banish these wicked longings, nor the dangerous hope that her life beyond the convent walls might yet be her own.

Summary
After the departure of Cousin Jack, the Featherington family is left with virtually no money, and even less reputation. Penelope is faced with the prospect of spending the rest of her days stuck in Reading with her mother and some relatives she's never met before in her life. Then she gets an offer from Eloise: Come and stay with the Bridgerton family and become a companion of sorts to Violet. Pen eagerly accepts.
When tongues start to wag about Penelope and Anthony Bridgerton having more than a business relationship--spurred on by a Lady Whistledown column--Anthony can think of only one solution: Marriage.
And so Penelope finds herself married to a man she's loved in secret, but who absolutely does not love her in return. He married her out of obligation and duty, nothing else--or so she thinks. Time will tell if this uneven match will end up on rather more even footing as they become more acquainted.

Summary
“Would you help me?” she asked.
“What?” The tea cup nearly slipped from his grasp.
“I think I just need some help to…make things interesting–for the story, I mean.”
“Oh…um…of course, I’d love to help you, Pen,” he said quietly before adding, “but, I’m not sure how?” His massive frame shrunk, shy and hesitant – a stark contrast to the typically poised, confident Colin Bridgerton she knew.
“Well, I think the biggest challenge is going to be…positioning. My characters have a height difference, kind of like you and me.” She could feel her cheeks flush at her admission, but she bravely continued. “If we could just…simulate various positions–clothes on and everything…that might help?”
* * * * *

At thirty-eight and forty-three, they’ve traded the pressure of the marriage mart for a comfortable pact: she gets a travel partner to spice up her retired-Whistledown life, and he finally gets the constant companion he’s been chasing across four continents. It’s a perfectly sensible, purely practical arrangement... isn't it?
A mix of book and show Polin because I'm a sucker for them.

Summary
Behind her, he ran—barefoot, desperate—his lungs screaming for air, his voice breaking as he shouted her name again and again. His heart pounded not just from the chase, but from the terror of losing her completely. He had hurt her, broken her trust beyond repair—and now, he was paying for it in full.
She stumbled, her knees scraping the wet ground, and then finally collapsed with an injured cry that sliced through the storm. For a heartbeat, the world seemed to pause. He slowed, terrified of what he’d done, before falling to his knees beside her.
“Pen,” he whispered hoarsely, rain dripping from his lashes, “I’m sorry—Pen, I’m so sorry.”
She flinched at his voice. When his trembling hands reached for her, she swatted them away as if they burned. Her entire body trembled—not from the cold, but from the sheer ache of betrayal.
“She carries your child!” she screamed, her voice cracking, the words almost devoured by thunder. “Oh God… no, no, don’t touch me! Don’t you dare!”

Summary
Colin gathers Penelope in his arms, placing his chin atop her head. "It will rain," he tells her. It is an assurance for them all, but he knows she is not used to circumstances such as these. He wants her to know things will be alright—that they will be alright—no matter what comes.
"Will you worry if it doesn't rain?" Oliver asks, fidgeting nervously.
"A little, but we will manage fine. We always do, don't we?" Colin tilts his head at his son, the corners of his lips quirked upward.
Oliver offers him a small smile in return and nods. "We do."
Amanda reaches for him and squeezes his hand, her nod decidedly more resolute than her brother's. "Yes, we do."
Penelope leans into Colin's embrace and sighs. "Imagine having to leave."
Colin stiffens, but relaxes quickly. "We wouldn't leave, Pen. The children were born here, their names are written in this land. And so is mine, even if it wasn't mine by birth."
Penelope turns her head, raising her chin slightly to meet his gaze. "I know, Colin."
The sequel to penelope, plain and small.
