Summary
Colin was pacing the front hall. He had never been so jittery in his life. All his anxiety, anticipation, and excitement compelled his feet back and forth across the hall.
Ever since Mama had told him that Penelope would be joining them for the holiday via the girls’ carriage, he had been even more fidgety than usual. He had not been able to be normal around her since he had been home from Eton, and that was six months ago. When Eloise had called after her in the park and she had turned, her hair swirling around her, her face pink and her mouth laughing, a feeling Colin could only describe as blazing hot calm had washed over him. She was so perfectly beautiful, so perfectly kind and charming, so perfectly clever and sparkling.
Perfect.
It wasn’t fair.
///
Colin's friendship with Penelope means everything to him, but when he falls for her before she has even debuted, he despairs. When she joins the Bridgertons at Aubrey Hall for Christmas, things spiral.
A little angst, a lot of feelings, and some happy holiday smut!
