Summary
Kate Sharma is a former veterinarian, now frustrated post-doc, trying to convince herself that the endless post-doc carousel is worth it.

When Professor Agatha Danbury brings them to a tropical island off the coast of Costa Rica, both Kate and Anthony think her unique safari park is the most incredible thing they've ever seen. But as a storm approaches, both Kate and Anthony are left to wonder is Agatha's dream actually a nightmare?

Summary
Kate has been waiting for this opportunity her whole life. Her first ever TV-gig as a new make-up artist. Her shot at the big time. The only problem? Her first client is the impossibly handsome, and rather cheeky, Anthony Bridgerton. The leading man who is undoubtedly leading her on.
Or
A totally unnecessary modern AU inspired shamelessly by a rather cheeky BTS photo from s2 of Bridgerton
UPDATE: Unsurprisingly, everyone wants a bit more of Anthony’s bum, and so I’m back with a new chapter on an apparent ‘one-shot’
Please note, chapter order is a bit off now. Chap 2 was a little text drabble which takes place a few months after the proper chapters.
To be honest you can read in any order because this whole fic is a bit pointless, but if this is your first time to this story I recommend you read Chap 1, 3 and then 2 (confusing, right)
If you’re up to date, just read the new chapter 3.Everyone sufficiently confused?
Ok then, here we go

A Moment With Miss Sharma by caciopepebowl
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
21 Mar 2023
Tags
Summary
"Anthony kept reassuring himself that there was a simple explanation for why he felt like he was perpetually on the back foot with Miss Sharma—it was because she had caught him off guard. Her very presence in that park on the morning they first met, a solitary female, riding astride, was unexpected—scandalous, even. When paired with her strong-willed nature and obvious, instant distrust of Anthony—distrust that he had almost immediately, and rather unfortunately, validated with his loose-lipped ramblings on the terrace at the Conservatory Ball—well, he had been put off balance, and had yet to fully recover."
This story will tackle the questions we (or at least I) have been pondering for months. What if Benedict was not completely oblivious to what was going on between Kate and Anthony in Kent? What if Daphne shared her suspicions with someone? What if Mr. Dorset was invited to Aubrey Hall with the rest of the ton? What if Season 2 depicted a different love triangle, one that did not pit two sisters against one another?

Don't Want You Movin' On by lookingforthestars
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
“You should tie me up,” Kate said, her voice light and teasing to hide the fact that she’d imagined that exact scenario as she snooped in his closet during their thwarted one-night stand. And that she had imagined quite a few more times in the nine months since.
Anthony snickered, not even taking his eyes off the road as he joked, “Sure, I’ll tie you up and pretend I’ve kidnapped you. Force you to submit to my will.”
And – oh. Perhaps Kate had not thought this all the way through, as she squeezed her thighs together in the passenger seat. He hadn’t even said it seriously, but the pulse between her legs didn’t seem interested in making that distinction.

They call themselves “Secretaries of Juliet,” Kate learns. A group of women, many fluent in multiple languages, all of varying ages and with different stories, who volunteer their time to write back to every single person who leaves a letter in their care. It’s an astounding thing, Kate thinks, to have found such an incredible cadre of women by sheer chance.
or,
Kate Sharma inspires Eloise Bridgerton to revisit her own lost love story. Anthony Bridgerton might have something to say about that.

Summary
He lowered his voice. “You are the most capable and intelligent person I have yet to meet. You make all of us look like fools.”
Her mouth opened in surprise before she quickly hid her feelings again. “Even you, my lord?”
She was smiling, clearly expecting an argument, but Anthony did not want her to think he took this lightly. He needed to correct her thinking. She needed to know that his initial promises were changing. Even if she did not reciprocate, he valued their honest rapport.
“You have made me the biggest fool, I think. For I thought I could pursue this courtship without any affection or strong feelings. Yet, it is impossible for me to feel nothing when I am with you.”
************
Anthony decides that Kate is the only woman fit to be Viscountess Bridgerton and catches feelings along the way. Fortunately, so does Kate.

Your pretty face and electric soul by lookingforthestars

Tags
Summary
With what feels like aching deliberateness but could just be his mind moving in slow motion, Kate gingerly scoops up the fallen cream with one long, delicate finger and slips it between her lips. And she goddamn looks at him.
Not briefly. Not in embarrassment. Direct eye contact while she sucks the clotted cream off her finger, her gorgeous full lips pursed, just a hint of her tongue visible as she draws it back out of her mouth with a pop.
And then she looks away, responding to Edwina’s question about something Anthony could not recall at gunpoint, and he feels halfway to fainting.

The One where they couldn't stop kissing by LoveIsStrong (orphan_account) for Iris_Bee
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
What Happens When Kate and Anthony couldn't stop kissing. Inspiration from the book "The Viscount Who Loves Me. "
Anthony knew she was the one, after their first kiss. Once Anthony knew, he wouldn’t let go. He wouldn't just go back home to mope and pine. He would go get his girl. So honestly, IMHO, this is more canon than the show.
Inspired by and dedicated to @iris_bee_

Summary
Five months later she has a sketchbook full of Anthony, 29, barrister’s hands, arms, and shoulders when Edwina calls her.
“Didi, you know Anthony, the guy I’ve been seeing? I’d really like you to meet him.”
And when she walks into the café, Kate sees a smile that really should not be as familiar as it is, directed at her sweet, innocent baby sister.
(Kate sees Anthony's bumble profile and finds it very pretentious. It does not stop her from obsessively drawing his arms though. Until he starts dating her sister.)
