Chapters & Pages [A POLIN ff]
Penelope Featherington, a Journalism senior, lands her dream internship at a prestigious publishing house in New York City-only to discover her boss is none other than Colin Bridgerton, her infuriating childhood neighbor, her best friend's brother, and her older brother's best mate. Talk about complicated. She's never been fond of him, and he hasn't exactly gone out of his way to be friendly either. But here's the thing about love and hate: they aren't opposites. Sometimes, the deeper the hatred, the stronger the love that might have been there once-or could still be. Hate, often born from pain, carves a deep emotional scar. But when it fades, it leaves room for something greater. Forgiveness and understanding can turn that bitterness into something unexpected, even overwhelming. As Penelope and Colin work side by side, late nights and tight deadlines bring their old tensions-and something more-to the surface. Can they manage their shared history and professional friction? Or will their undeniable chemistry turn this enemies-to-lovers story into an unexpected romance? [NOTES: In this ff, Colin is the eldest Bridgerton sibling, with three younger sisters: Eloise, Fran and Hyacinth. In the Featherington fam, Archie and Penelope are Portia's children.Complete
The Wallflower
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?Complete

Benedict x OC Completed! 50,000 words Best ratings: #1 in Bridgerton, #1 in BenedictBridgerton Hope you enjoy 💗 Characters and overarching story do not belong to me! OC characters and storylines only. Some bits of the series have been changed to better fit with my story so not 100% accurate to the TV show or the books! The ages are a little inconsistent too and I apologise for that... In line with Quinn's books, Peaches would be about 15 - I imagine her around 22. I don't condone relationships with minors! I didn't really think anyone would read my book, so I didn't focus too much on ages being accurate to the original books! It's my first fic and I've made some mistakes but please stick with me! <3Complete
