Summary: In a time where gods and myths existed in harmony (and sometimes in strife), there lived the mortals who challenged them. And within the populace of mortals, there lived men and women who seemed to have been sculpted by the hands of the gods themselves. Amongst them were the Bridgertons, with their pearlescent skin that seemed to glow in the sun and their dark hair in nearly every shade of brown.

Summary: “Pen?” He peeked around the statue, a concerned look on his face. “Are you quite well?”
She let out a mirthless laugh. “I can assuredly say I have had better evenings, Mr. Bridgerton, no thanks to you.”
Colin reeled back slightly, her tone and use of such formality feeling like a slap to the face. “What can you mean? Has something happened?”
Penelope looked up at him, meeting his kind gaze with a withering stare. “I never asked you to court me, you know. Despite having had numerous opportunities to insist upon it, given your penchant for impropriety when it comes to our ‘friendship.’” She spat out the last word like it was poison upon her tongue. “That was my mistake, I suppose—assuming you had the best of intentions. Though perhaps that’s not quite true. How could you have anything but the best, most pure of intentions when it comes to poor, little Penelope Featherington? Who you could not even dream of courting in your wildest fantasies? No, the wildest fantasies of that vile rake, Mr. Fife, whose fantasies are likely so untenable they would make even the viscount blush.”

Summary: “I was certainly a fool,” Colin says. “I lived my formative years in the presence of my parents’ undeniable love. I knew my match with Marina did not compare, and still, I rendered her a proposal. It is quite astounding to consider now.”
“I am so sorry that your first love treated you with such cruelty,” Penelope says, cradling his fingers. “I am very grateful to be your second love, so that I may ensure you always feel loved in return.”
In the early days of their marriage, Colin and Penelope receive a congratulatory letter from Marina. It prompts some reflection on the girls he touched before his wife, and the women that have shaped his life.

Summary: His heart was hammering at a rapid pace. His palms were clammy and his cheeks were flushed. There was a feeling of tightness around his heart and a stirring deep in his belly. Was this what love felt like? Colin had turned eleven years old just two days ago. There was no way this could be love. Eleven year old boys were much too young to fall in love. In fact, based on the examples of his older brothers, even fifteen and seventeen year old boys were too young to fall in love.
His brothers returned to find him still sitting in the grass, a bemused smile on his face, and covered in mud. Anthony rode off to grab Colin’s horse who had wandered off to a nearby pond, while Benedict teased him mercilessly for the state of his clothing. Colin didn’t care though, because today he had met Penelope Featherington, and while he didn’t understand what precisely that meant yet, he could feel the profundity of it. He was certain that meeting Penelope Featherington that day was the greatest birthday gift he would ever receive in his whole life.

Summary: Colin can still remember what Penelope’s handwriting looked like when she was a little kid.
He had spent years getting lost in the large loops of her handwriting, bubbly and sweet, with long curls on lowercase G and Y, the spidery lines on uppercase F and E, the little tail on the letter R that he could never be bothered to complete. The people in the queue with him are chattering excitedly about how obsessed they are with the new P. Featherington book, the cute picture of her cat on her Instagram, the TikTok she posted of her making homemade strawberry ice cream, and Colin can’t stop wondering if a single one of them has any idea what her handwriting looked like when she was young.
