"No romance. No love. We shall live as two people taking on their duties, not as a husband and wife.. I sincerely hope you understand that this is an arranged marriage, it is practically a business deal."
"I assure you, my Lord, I am well aware of the circumstances, having already agreed to them as such."
Lady Lily Anne Jones never dreamt of becoming a Viscountess. To be fair, she rarely dreamt of anything. She knew from a very young age, as the only child of Earl Jones, her duty was to find a respectable gentleman to marry. At the age of three and twenty, she found out, her father had already arranged that for her, and for no less than a Viscount Bridgerton, most desirable bachelor.

Letting You In [Bridgerton]
After their long battle of wills, Anthony has finally gotten Kate to agree to marry him, but he has real reason to fear she won't go through with it, and every reason to believe the battle is far from over! This story is based on the TV show Bridgerton (British Regency romance), but you don't need any knowledge of the show. This story has been designed (and tested on fandom-blind beta readers!) to make it enjoyable as a standalone piece. This is a canon-compliant follow-up (missing scenes before the epilogue, really) to the S2 finale. [Rated Mature for sexual content.]Complete
The Viscount's Vow
Viscount Anthony Bridgerton has made a vow to marry this season, to choose a bride with sense over sentiment, and to avoid scandal at all costs. What he did not vow was to endure the sharp tongue and sharper wit of Miss Florence Evergreen, the daughter of a botanist who's more interested in her greenhouse than the marriage mart. However Florence has no interest in the games of the wealth, let alone the arrogant viscount Anthony who seems determined to affront her at every turn. He's prideful, predictable and so maddeningly proper. She's stubborn, unpredictable, and she never falls into his charm..at least that's what she says. But eventually an unexpected twist of fate forces them into a risky partnership..one that involves fake courtship, whispered secrets, and far too many stolen glances. Florence and Anthony soon discover that the line between hating each other and desiring each other is really thin. As the London season comes toward an end, one question remains: will Anthony justify his vow of duty, or will he break it for the only woman bold enough to defy him?Complete

Loving Lord Bridgerton
I have known the Bridgertons for most my life. Daphne is my best friend and the closest to a sister I will ever have. Being the only child isn't just lonely. It's a constant reminded of the future I will have if something were to happen to my father, and if I ever try to forget, my mother will be there to make sure I remember. Then there is Lord Bridgerton-- Anthony...I have loved him for as long as I have known what love was. He makes my heart pound and my knees unsteady. One moment of weakness made it easier to believe he could love back, but my mother isn't going to wait for him to maybe ask for my hand. My reality is that I must get married and he will never want to marry me. I have one more London season to find my match before my mother makes one for me... ________________________ This story is based off the Bridgerton books series by Julia Quinn(that I highly recommend).

Read Anthony Bridgerton x Y/N if you want. *********************** "Are you denying your husband?", he asks with her clenched teeth, angrily. She doesn't respond but just stares at him defiantly. "Lie down", Anthony demands but Mara shakes her head. "I said.. LIE DOWN", Anthony repeats angrily.. The sentence is out before Mara realises it and it was a foolish thing to say, she would later think. "MAKE ME", she says. "Fine. Challenge ACCEPTED" and he steps towards her hurriedly. P.s. The story is mine but I do NOT own the characters relating Bridgerton. However this is AU with ADDED ORIGINAL CHARACTERS so therefore NOT CANON COMPLIANT. PS2: Picture of "Anthony" is not mine, will credit later. FOR JONATHAN BAILEY who has captured my heart as Viscount Anthony Bridgerton.Complete
Dare - Lily Bridgerton's story
Miss Lily Mary Violet Bridgerton, the youngest one of her siblings, had eagerly waited for her first social season, but as it finally arrived, she was simply thoroughly disappointed that she was not allowed to pursue her dreams as a painter - as well as the poor and misogynistic supply of unmarried men. Only her family's arch nemesis, Lord Percy Lumley, seems to be irritatingly interested in her... When Percy proves out to be not as disagreeable and as much of a villain as Lily first had thought, quite the opposite really, she soon decides that he is the only possible match for her. But Percy is already promised to another woman, his vile father wants nothing to do with the Bridgertons and to make matters even worse, Lily's brother Miles seems to have some secret reason to blatantly hate the future earl. Nevertheless, after an unforgettable midsummer in Dover with Percy, their fates seemed to be as much intertwined as they are being pulled apart. How do you love someone who keeps pushing you away? How do you help someone whose pain you cannot even begin to understand? And most importantly - can love truly conquer all, or is that just something happening in fairy tales?Complete
