Summary
Kate cannot help but feel that familiar tug, the ebb and flow of magnetism that first sparked between Anthony and her when they first met, as she walks the halls of Lady Danbury’s estate and promenades through the park with Daphne and Edwina. She remembers the inexplicable urge to be near Anthony, to prod at him until his veneer of charm broke, to lose herself in his eyes as if no one else was in the room. To be back a year later — and to not have to hide her feelings or resist any temptation — is an odd thing.
or, Kate's second social season in London.

“I do, my lord,” she says. She looks down at the book. “This is one of my favorites, actually.”
“I cannot imagine why,” Anthony deadpans. Unable to resist, he adds, “A woman named Kate, unmarried, who hates men… and gets hopelessly charmed by a rake.”

Summary
Kate Sharma is fairly certain she’s about to get very lost, but it’s early enough that no one will be missing her for a while, and there are worse places to get lost than Aubrey Hall. At least no annoying gentlemen can find her here.
“Good morning, Miss Sharma.”
Kate jumps, almost bumping into her horse, finding herself very unfortunately face-to-face with Anthony Bridgerton, astride his own horse and looking very, very smug.
“Lord Bridgerton,” she says brusquely. “We simply must stop meeting like this.”

Summary
Gentle Reader,
If there is one thing that the ton finds more delicious than scandal, it must be envy. And no single figure has garnered more of the so-called Deadly Sin than Viscountess Kate Bridgerton. Having survived their first country visit in Aubrey Hall, the Viscountess and her Viscount (and it is no accident that This Author lists the lady first) have been seen at nearly every society function in London. Even Her Majesty the Queen has been seen summoning Lady Bridgerton to her side. Perhaps there is a lesson to be learned from Kate Bridgerton’s success, and a warning too. Do not underestimate the ton’s most intelligent women — you never know which one you will be needing to grovel before next.
For KateAnthony Week 2022, Days 5 & 6: Do you want me to reconsider? and Viscountess.

Summary
Anthony thinks of Daphne and Simon, of him and Kate. He imagines Eloise, determined to remain alone, and Francesca, already the apple of an Earl’s eye. He thinks of Benedict’s trail of fizzled romances, and of Colin, blind to his own ignorance.
“I will know no peace until my siblings are married,” he realizes. “I owe my mother a bottle of brandy.”
