The Heavens and Earths Collide | Francesca Bridgerton by NaruHina1519

Seven years after the tragic loss of his beloved wife, Prince Charles-Queen Charlotte's youngest and most cherished son-returns to England with his two young daughters and a heart shrouded in grief. Dubbed the "Widowed Prince" by the public, he has sworn never to love again... until fate intervenes in the most unexpected of places. While wandering a bustling London market, the mischievous princesses slip away from their guards-only to be rescued by Francesca Bridgerton, a poised yet quietly yearning young woman from a prominent family. In the midst of chaos, Francesca offers calm, kindness, and safety-winning the hearts of the girls... and unknowingly capturing the attention of their grieving father. But Charles resists. Bound by memory, duty, and guilt, he fights his growing feelings for Francesca. The princesses, however, have other plans-and enlist the formidable Queen Charlotte in their quiet campaign to bring joy back into their father's life. As royal expectations collide with forbidden affection, Francesca must decide if she's willing to risk her heart-and her freedom-for a life inside the gilded world of royalty. At the emotional crossroads of grief and healing, Prince Charles must make a choice: remain loyal to the shadows of his past... or embrace a second chance at love, family, and a future he never dared imagine.

Dare - Lily Bridgerton's story by miss_islemeadow

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?

[2] The Queen Mother of Württemberg | A. Bridgerton by f1royalty

All Is Fair In Love And War. Lord Anthony Bridgerton, the formidable head of the Bridgerton family, sets forth on a quest to secure a worthy spouse, driven solely by his unyielding duty to preserve the family's esteemed name. His pursuit of a debutante who can meet his exacting standards appears destined for failure until the arrival of the Sharma sisters from the exotic lands of India. Yet, as the Viscount endeavors to court Edwina, his heart and mind are ensnared by an unexpected distraction-the Queen Dowager of Württemberg, now globally recognized as the Queen Mother, Charlotte. Unbeknownst to Anthony, Charlotte harbors a conflicted heart; while she yearns for him to marry, she can't escape the fervent desire that it were her he chose. A lifetime of unspoken love lingers, and she regrets the moment she turned him away when he bared his feelings. As Anthony's courtship of Edwina unfolds, Kate uncovers the stark reality of his intentions-a genuine love match isn't high on his list of priorities-certainly not when she discovers of the Viscount and Queen Mother's past. Determined to shield her sister, Kate resolves to thwart the impending union. Amidst everyone's efforts, every encounter between Charlotte and Anthony draws them irresistibly closer, entwining their destinies in a complex web of emotions. This fanfic follows Season 2 of the Bridgerton Netflix series, based on the novel "The Viscount Who Love Me" by Julia Quinn.

𝒯𝐻𝐸 𝑅𝒜𝒦𝐸 - 𝒜𝒩𝒯𝐻𝒪𝒩𝒴 𝐵𝑅𝐼𝒟𝒢𝐸𝑅𝒯𝒪𝒩 by adaliaer0

As the eldest, Viscount Anthony Bridgerton has long accepted his duty to marry-yet has vowed to avoid the trap of love. Cynical about romance and burdened by expectations, he is certain he can fulfill his role without ever losing his heart. Enter Miss Clara Everly: intelligent, fiercely independent, and utterly unimpressed by his title or reputation. A woman who defies the conventions of the ton, Clara would rather lose herself in books than in a gentleman's empty promises. When the two meet, she sees past his charm, challenging him in ways no other woman has dared. Their minds spark like kindling, igniting a connection that's as exhilarating as it is unexpected. But as they match wits, Anthony finds himself drawn to more than her beauty-he is captivated by her intellect, her laughter, her guarded warmth. With his heart on the line, he faces a new challenge: to convince the woman who trusts in little that she can trust in him. *I do not own any rights to the Bridgerton franchise or characters*

A Wallflower's Discoveren by enaganda

At the start of the 1814 season, Viscount Anthony Bridgerton had decided that he'll finally look for and take in a wife. Having interviewed most of the ladies of the ton and found none deserving, his interest was piqued whilst at the Danbury Ball when he overhears his mother and sister speak of a lady in high regard; and in their comments found that this woman shares the same qualities he had been looking for in a prospect. What will happen if he finds out that the same lady in question was no other than his sister's best friend and their long time neighbor, Penelope Featherington?

Out of the Ordinary by lysandrasage

She was never meant to be noticed. For three seasons, Cecily Featherington has played her part - smiling when required, curtsying when expected, and pretending she doesn't hear the whispers that call her forgettable. But when she vows this season will be her last, fate takes an unexpected turn. He was never meant to fall. Viscount Anthony Bridgerton is the model of propriety - until she walks into the room. With paint on her hands and wit sharper than any gentleman's, Cecily defies every rule he's built his life upon. She is the one woman who unsettles him, challenges him, and makes him question everything he thought he wanted. What begins as rivalry and restraint turns into stolen glances, near confessions, and nights spent wondering if love can survive the weight of reputation. Because in a world where every feeling is a scandal, and every choice has a consequence, Cecily and Anthony's connection is anything but proper. It's fierce. It's forbidden. And it's utterly, irrevocably - out of the ordinary. -- Pre Bridgerton Series - Anthony Bridgerton x Cecily Featherington Standalone Cecily is my creation, and I own all rights to her.

They marry but it is a marriage of convenience at first, even though Anthony likes to visit her bedroom at night but the relationship has his considerable ups and downs and the two argue.. a lot. 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.

Burn - Edmund Bridgerton II's story by miss_islemeadow

Miss Amelia Fife is young, beautiful - and utterly penniless. Since her father's tragic passing her uncle has paid for one season in London, and one season only, during which she has to find herself a husband and save herself, along with her infamous opera songstress mother, from utter ruin. Amelia enters her first ball with one simple instruction: stay away from the Bridgertons - and especially Viscount Bridgerton's sons. When none other than said viscount's oldest son and heir, Edmund II or rather Eddie, steps in her way, things no longer seem to be in Amelia's control. As determinedly as she tries to steer her course towards a more suitable husband, she somehow always ends up in the dangerously handsome young viscount's vicinity. It would be easy enough to withstand the pull she feels towards Eddie had he only been a smirking rake, but how is she supposed to resist giving in to their overwhelming connection when he finally shows her his true colours?

The Viscount's Vow by monst5rz

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?
