Music and Lyrics
24-year-old Penelope Featherington is in Los Angeles for a few months to work with a difficult author for her employer, Danbury Publishing. 26-year-old Colin Bridgerton has been living in LA for nearly four years, trying to make it as a singer and musician with the stage name CJ Bridges.
Penelope dreams of being a published writer but doesn't feel her book is good enough yet and has never shown her poems to anyone. Colin dreams of being a rock star, but while he composes beautiful music, he has only ever written one complete song that he thought good enough - the song he wrote for Penelope years ago when he realized he was falling in love with her.
Colin and Penelope have been living on the edge of the friend zone for several years. Could this time in the same city without the interference of the Bridgerton family get them to end game?
This modern AU story will alternate chapters between Penelope's point of view (POV) and Colin's POV.
