[ON INDEFINITE HIATUS] It is the first time since she overheard him declare that he would never dream of courting her that Colin asks Penelope to dance. It is also one of the few times that Penelope denies Colin a dance.

The arrangement between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington. Note: this is my first trial on writing so bear with me :)

The Bridgerton family has had enough of Colin and Penelope tip-toeing around their feelings and take matters into their own hands!

After a night of wonder under flowers and fireworks, Penelope Featherington thought she was on top of the world. Things seemed to go perfectly for once in her life. Until, her best friend discovers something she's been hiding for years. And to top it all off she overhears a conversation she was never meant to hear. And for the first time in her life Penelope truly feels like she's alone in the world. Penelope must look inside herself and decide once and for all if she will continue her usual wallflower ways or if it's time for her to step into the spotlight and claim the life she has always dreamed of having. Colin Bridgerton was, in his own estimation, perfectly happy being single. He enjoyed the occasional dance with the beautiful debutantes and his charming ways lead him to be quite a flirt. However he knew deep down it meant nothing. He was not in search of a wife, in fact he wasn't even ready to entertain the idea of finding one. He did however find himself involved in a rather deep and genuine friendship with one, Miss Penelope Featherington. But when his own foolish remarks threaten to ruin there relationship forever, he must decide whether he can let her go or if there is maybe something he hadn't seen in her before. Could Prince Charming (or rather Mr. Charming) truly set aside his rakish ways for one wallflower? Or will the secrets she's hiding tear them even farther apart? What happens when a wallflower blossoms?

MIR: #1 PenelopeFeatherington #1 JuliaQuinn #1 Periodic #1 Ficlet Penelope Featherington was never the beautiful one, never the 'darling of the crowd' nor the 'diamond of the season'. But she was always there, along the edges of the balls. A wallflower. Watching and waiting. Hoping that he would finally look her way. But what would happen if he finds out her secret? For those who have read the books and fancy themselves in love with Mr. Bridgerton, and for those who aspire to have the wit and strength of one Miss Featherington. 2.24.21 *vanilla*

Based off of the TV series Bridgerton, this story follows the events of Season 2. (SPOILERS FOR S2)

Penelope captures the eye of a perverted old duke. With her father dead, her family is forcing her to marry. Eloise is heartbroken for her best friend and decides to intervene. The Bridgertons have a plan. Colin must return to London and honor their friendship by asking for her hand in marriage. Is honor truly enough in a loveless marriage?

"Courting Penelope Featherington? Not in your wildest dreams, Ethan." That's what Colin at least thinks until he opens the bottle the blond gentleman had just handed to him. The content shall enlighten him, letting him see things he had never experienced before? Colin is a fan of everything new, he likes the adventure, the challenge. So what could possibly go wrong?! It's my first Polin fanfic, hope you'll like it.

A story of how friends mature and grow and realize that they are in love

I just finished binge watching Bridgerton and I loved it! Colin and Penelope deserved more screen time and I just finished reading the 4th Bridgerton book that is focused on them and I just wanted to see more of them. Seeing that there are not many fanfics about them I of course took the liberty of writing one my self. Set between the last chapter and epilogue of Romancing Mr. Bridgerton Rated M for mature MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE SHOW AND BOOKS! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
