Summary
Penelope Featherington has been quietly in love with Colin Bridgerton for nine years. She's written it all down—every small moment, every unreturned feeling—in a document meant for her eyes only. Colin, meanwhile, has spent those same years being charming and oblivious.
Then Colin calls off his wedding and accidentally discovers what Penelope's been hiding. Suddenly, he can't stop thinking about the woman he never noticed. He wants to know her—really know her. And Penelope has no idea why he's finally paying attention.
As friendship turns into something more, Colin faces an impossible problem: he's falling for her, but she doesn't know how he learned to see her. The truth might destroy everything. But the lies might be worse.

Summary
Colin Bridgerton is the smug head of Bridgerton Publishing. Penelope Featherington is the bestselling author who once called him “an overpriced bookmark in a suit.” Their public feud is legendary—fueled by sharp tweets, literary panels turned battlegrounds, and one very compromising limo incident outside the Publisher’s Book Awards.
What starts as professional rivalry turns into something a lot messier (and a lot more romantic), unfolding across live tweets, poetry books, post-it notes, and accidental proposals.
Enemies to lovers?
No.
Enemies to viral scandal to emotional chaos to “my wife, my nemesis.”
And the internet never stood a chance.Bookmarked by Justaregularficreader

Summary
Before long she would understand better, know what he wanted to be called.
Son, darling, my boy, dearest.
Soon it would be second nature to her.
Soon, she would take care of him without him having to guide her, prompt her. Soon she would be even more perfect, and maybe then the empty longing in his chest would finally be filled.
-OR-
The one where Colin has maybe, just a little, teeny, tiny mommy kink. (Maybe more than just a little…)

Summary
Penelope Featherington, 32, is successful and living what most would call a good life. Yet her world still seems to orbit around her longtime neighbors—the Bridgertons—and her dearest friends, Eloise and Colin. After a revealing family dinner, Penelope begins to question the life she’s built. Has she spent too long defining herself by the people around her? Maybe it’s time to step out of their shadow and finally become her own person. This is a story of growth, self-discovery, redemption—and, of course, finding love along the way.

Summary
“This is my fault,” the Viscount said. “I should have taken him to a brothel long ago.” He gulped down his drink. “I should take him now.”
“What use would it have?” Benedict asked. “He’s already engaged, he’d reject the offer in favour of his beloved fiancé.”
“Beloved?” Anthony laughed humorlessly. “He’s too green. I bet you all it’d take for him to abandon this nonsense is to find a willing girl to wet his wick with.”
“What does that mean?” Penelope asked. She did not mean to, but the prospect of Colin saving himself from entrapment prompted her to blurt the question out.
After accidently hearing a rather crude declaration from Colin's older brother, Penelope decides to put the put it to the test.

Summary
"You — you bind other people?" Penelope blurts out, forgetting herself. Then her cheeks redden. "Sir," she adds, her heart pounding.
Mr Bridgerton's brow creases and he looks down at his leg, at the rope wound about his large fingers.
"Yes, Penelope. The feeling is like none other. I am able to… well." He clears his throat and his back straightens. He has never said so many words to her all at once, Penelope realises. "The rope allows one to forget one's troubles for a few moments."
Penelope does not think before she says:
"I am yours to command, sir."

Summary
Penelope is quiet for a long while after he nodded his head and confirmed he was inquiring about whether or not she has changed her mind about having a baby with him.
"I…" she starts before swallowing once. "Well, I suppose as the years have gone on… I have imagined it a time or two, yes."
Colin knows she is telling the truth, and for the first time in a long time, he is also able to read her and surmise there is more still she is holding back.
"Is that something you wish for?" he asks cautiously. "A babe? One of your own?"
Pen's big, pale blue eyes blink at him twice slowly before she starts nibbling on her lip in a decidedly nervous gesture. "That is… We did not… We married for other purposes. I do not expect—"
"I am not asking what you expect," he interrupts, keeping his tone gentle, though, so as not to scare her out of this spell of vulnerability he's found her in tonight. "I am asking simply what you desire for yourself. Do you want a baby, Pen?"
"Yes."

Or, regency era Penelope and Colin have been in marriage of convenience for five years and decide to have a child together—platonically of course.

Summary
People talk a lot about the physical and emotional impact on women during “that time of the month.” For Penelope Featherington, though, there’s an entirely separate portion of the month that hits her the hardest, and the symptoms she experiences are distinct from that other time. It’s a different sort of ache that settles low in her belly, a different form of discomfort driving her to cocoon herself in bed, and a different type of tenderness that envelopes her body and her mind. As time goes by, it’s only getting harder and harder to deal with on her own. If only she knew someone kind and handsome and trustworthy to help her through it…

Or, Penelope experiences extreme horniness when she’s ovulating every month and Colin offers to sleep with her “as a friend.”

Nurse by KatofKanals for gildedruin
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
01 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
Colin is supposed to be abroad and drinking, touring, and perhaps even raking his way across the continent. Instead, he is stuck in England managing a modest yet still cumbersome country estate, grieving a recently deceased wife who apparently never loved him, and caring for a pair of newborn twin babies sired by a former lover of that same wife of his. He is trapped in a perpetual state of wretchedness as he tries to come to terms with so many seemingly insurmountable responsibilities before him. The only recent success comes in the form of a wet nurse he managed to hire. He is certain the disarming young redhead with abundant curves will be able to offer the babies the care and nourishment they so desperately require. With that rather significant concern off his plate, he expects he will be left with more time to wallow and slowly descend deeper into a state of despair in peace. He is not prepared, however, for that nurse’s unique brand of tenderness and care to extend beyond the twins, and he is certainly not prepared for the ways in which she just might be capable of healing his broken heart and soul.

Moving On by ynnej2198 for EmmyKate88

Tags
Summary
A Bridgerton modern AU set in the United States instead of England where Anthony and Penelope find themselves drawn to each other unexpectedly. In this fic, Anthony is a widower and Colin is a dumbass, so if you’re superfans of the original couples, this fic definitely is NOT for you (SO DON'T READ IT). I have tried my best to honor Kate’s memory and capture Anthony's struggle to move on from her while also exploring Pen and Colin's complicated friendship.
Note: If you're going to binge this fic, it may be easier to do "Entire Work" or download it versus chapter by chapter. I write short chapters, so it may feel less choppy that way.
