Unexpected Curves by ynnej2198 for m_luthien

Summary
This story came into my head randomly and is based off of the Friends storyline of Monica and Chandler’s unexpected hook-up at Ross’ wedding to Emily and their subsequent secret relationship. What happens when Anthony and Penelope find common ground at Colin’s wedding to Marina and realize that there is more to each other than meets the eye?
This is a modern Bridgerton AU set in the United States where Anthony is a rich billionaire CEO and philanthropist and Penelope is a writer sharing an apartment with Eloise. Anthony has not met Kate (and will not meet her) and Colin is in love with Marina and completely unaware of Pen’s feelings for him.
If you are fans of the original couples and cannot picture them with other people, then DO NOT READ THIS FIC, as it is NOT for you. But, if you have an open mind, then enjoy.

Summary
Penelope Featherington is a successful English teacher, Deputy Headteacher and single mum to an energetic 5 year old, Elliott. They venture to London for a few days of exploring and new experiences during the summer holidays.
Penelope’s plans include a trip to museums, a boat ride, culture and new foods. Elliott’s plans include seeing as many dinosaurs as possible and eating lots of ice cream.
What Penelope doesn’t expect however, is for her carefully managed and curated world to collide with the chaotic Bridgerton family due to chance meeting between Elliott and some of the next generation of Bridgertons.
Penelope has spent years building a coat of armour to protect herself, and by extension Elliott, from everything negative that the world could throw their way. She is determined to give Elliott a totally different upbringing from her own. Her suit of armour also serves to cover the mental and physical scars, and closely guarded secrets, that she carries thanks to her past.
Surely her armour can stay intact for a few days in London… surely?

Summary
Colin’s life is a mess- a car crash, you might say. Widowed, young twins, barely keeping the family together until Anthony and Violet step in.
Penelope’s life is plodding along in a decent fashion- job she loves (reception teacher), cougar wannabe mother she generally avoids and a quiet life but that’s ok, right? Who needs anything else?

Summary
Alpha Colin Bridgerton finds his (soul)mate in Human Penelope Featherington-
Colin saw Penelope's hesitation at the meaning. "You don't have to say anything back. Regardless of what I say or do, you're not obligated to do anything or say anything back." He smiled.
She doesn't? "You...don't want anything from me?" Confusion was laced in her voice.
"Oh, make no mistake. I want everything from you." He growled and tightened his hold on her. "I just don't want anything that you're not willing to give."
Colin was amused with the confused look she's giving him. "Your happiness and well-being are all that matters to me. If you're happy, I am too." He grinned when she opened her mouth to speak but nothing came out.
The Alpha and his Mate.

Summary
“Puede que para usted el matrimonio sea un negocio, pero para mí, no lo es. Seguramente piense que esta es la mejor opción para ambos, pero solo está aquí por su extremo sentido del deber y un matrimonio que empieza así no tiene buen futuro”
Anthony y Penélope no eligieron casarse, tenían tantas cosas en contra y varios años después, lo único que comparten es una cama, un apellido… y un aparente resentimiento cuidadosamente cultivado.
Hasta que un día, ambos despiertan con una segunda oportunidad.
Pero cambiar el pasado no es tan fácil, cuando lo que duele no es lo que pasó… sino lo que pudo haber sido.
Esto es Penthony, si no te gusta, no lo leas.

Summary
In the shadows of Washington’s brightest lights, President Colin Bridgerton rises as the youngest leader in American history—charismatic, brilliant, but dangerously entangled with the one woman he cannot have: his fixer, Penelope Featherington. While the First Lady smiles for the cameras, Colin and Penelope steal moments in the dark, tethered by a love too powerful to name and too ruinous to expose. Every debate, every state dinner, every crisis threatens to unravel them, as ambition and desire collide behind closed doors. With Michael Sterling circling, Marina suspicious, and the press hungrier than ever, the line between politics and scandal grows razor-thin. The question is no longer if the truth will come out—but when, and what it will destroy in its wake.
Or
Penelope is Olivia Pope and Colin is Fitzgerald down-bad Grant.

Summary
When the truth about Lady Whistledown shatters her engagement to Colin Bridgerton, Penelope Featherington does not fight for what is already lost. Instead, she flees London with a secret of her own…a child she refuses to let the world destroy.
Years later, she is Penelope Fife, the devoted wife of Lord Fife and mother to three children, including bright, beautiful Agatha. The daughter born of a love that died before it could ever truly live. Against every whisper, every scandal, Fife stands by her side, raising Agatha as his own.
Their life in the country is peaceful, even joyful, proof that love can bloom again from ruin. But peace is rarely permanent in the world of the ton. When the Bridgertons cross paths with the Fifes once more, old wounds reopen. Colin must face the consequences of his choices, Violet senses an unspoken truth in the child who calls another man “Papa,” and Eloise grapples with the loss of her oldest friend.
“She may be your blood, Mr. Bridgerton,” Fife says quietly, “but she is my daughter.”

Summary
Upon hearing that the firstborn son of any of the Featherington daughters will inherit the title and estate, the men of the Ton turn their eyes upon the sole remaining young miss. For power, men will do terrible things.
Penelope is tired, she is out of patience, and she has a deal to uphold. A final season in London with her mama, and she shall be free to do as she pleases. Portia thinks this is the perfect trap. Penelope thinks only of her hidden Whistledown funds and distant Scotland, far from London and the Bridgertons who have burned her terribly, yet still hold her heart. Her path is set, up until a courier arrives at the Featherington's country estate in December, bearing a gift and the promise of a reunion.
Daphne Basset (Formerly Bridgerton) hears the news that her honorary sister is now the target of the worst men of the Ton. Knowing that Colin will go utterly mad upon realizing he is in fact in love with her in the face of such peril, and that Penelope is gravely endangered by this news, she begins to plan.
A game is afoot in London, and Bridgertons never lose. But with unknown players on the board, will all go as planned or will scandal burn even the finest of families?

Summary
“D’ye believe in the supernatural, Penelope?”
Penelope could not help the giggle that escaped her. “Oh, Mrs. Wilson. The supernatural? Do you mean magic?”
“Aye, lass. Magic. It's everywhere, ye ken? Lingers between the here and there, just out of sight. But there are some places it gathers in hordes, where its power cannae be denied. It buzzes, the wind picks up, and it takes you.”
Penelope felt her breath catch. “It takes you?”
Mrs. Wilson nodded. “Aye. It is said at the Kilmartin Glen, and other places alike, the stones will sweep you to another world.”

Summary
[Review] Just Dance — a game that ruined my life (in the best possible way)
You know how some people have photo albums or playlists that define their childhood? For me, it was Just Dance. It started as a silly thing — kids in someone’s living room, tripping over cables and laughing until we couldn’t breathe. It was pure chaos, pure joy, everything. We didn’t know it yet, but that stupid game was documenting us growing up. Every new game version, every new song… it marked a new chapter. Somewhere between songs, we changed. The same people who once danced like idiots together started drifting apart. Or growing closer. And suddenly, the game wasn’t about scoring points — it was about remembering who we were before things got complicated. Before feelings got involved. Before goodbyes and misunderstandings and the kind of heartbreak that sneaks up on you in the middle of a song you used to love.
This isn’t really a review. It’s more like a confession. Would I recommend it? Absolutely.
Just Dance: 10/10 for gameplay. 0/10 for emotional stability
Would recommend it to anyone who’s never fallen in love with their best friend -

Summary
When a vengeance demon overhears Colin insulting Penelope at her mama’s ball, she takes matters into her own hands to ensure Colin will regret his foolish words, both in his current reality and every other one.
A cute little Buffy/Bridgerton crossover that gives me an excuse to play around with different Penelope pairings in various times and worlds, all of which will feature Pen living out her wildest fantasies while Colin mopes over what he lost.
Features non-canon couples in the Bridgerton universe, including Penthony, Penedict, Pegory, Penife, and more. What it won’t feature … Polin. So if you’re not here for the crackfic, then keep scrolling. (Multis, if any, will never feature Bridgerton siblings together.)

Summary
It all changes so quickly - savage terrors hunting in the night, a curse that could destroy everything Colin has ever known. Amid the grandeur of opulent estates and moonlit gardens, the line between man and beast blurs.
But, just maybe, even monsters can find love.
A story about darkness and the courage to find the light, how stars fall and yet continue to shine even after death, and what it means to be human.
