I will go down with this AU Ship

We are starting to gear up for "Everybody Loves Penelope - Rare Pair Week"! It will take place August 2-8, 2026. Last year we had over 90 fics submitted and we are so excited to see what this year brings.

Happy birthday, Bert Seymour aka Lord Fife!

We will be celebrating all week with Pen/Fife WIP updates, new stories and epilogues.

Anthony Bridgerton, recently crowned Sexiest Man Alive, is convinced women are only interested in him for his money and looks. Penelope Featherington believes men won’t date her because of hers. Tired of the shallow dating scene, they both sign up for Love is Blind—a new dating experience that strips away appearances: no photos, no voice, no video. Just words, personality, and connection. For ten days, they chat anonymously, slowly peeling back layers and forming a deep bond. The catch? At the end of those ten days, they have to make a choice: hit the “Propose” button or lose each other forever.

Anthony Bridgerton, CEO of Bridgerton Books, knows he can’t afford to lose his top talent, Penelope Featherington. Determined to keep her at the company, he makes her a compelling proposal.
