Bless The Telephone by KatofKanals

Summary
Penelope Featherington has been trying to get over her crush on her best friend Colin Bridgerton for the last several years. It should be pretty easy to do considering he spends the vast majority of his time away from London and in far off corners of the world as part of his travel writing and social media enterprises. He’s never around and she only sees him a couple of times a year at most. However, it turns out her problem in being unable to get over him has nothing to do with how often she spends time with him in-person. Her problem is the telephone.
--
Or, the one where Penelope and Colin start having phone sex as “friends.”

Summary
Colin maintained that his recent bout of lunacy was, in its entirety, all Penelope Featherington’s fault. For, had she not been so very resolute in her refusal to speak to him after an off-season's worth of unanswered letters, it was wholly possible that – after having overheard his mother lamenting both the state of the Featherington baronry and the effects of Lady Featherington’s now rather indiscreet baby race on Penelope’s chances at a felicitous (if practical) match – Colin would have acted far more rationally than to orchestrate a not-so-clandestine, not-so-very-appropriate, and also not-at-all-truthful midnight tryst between them in the orangery at Vauxhall Gardens.
(Maybe.)
After all, if it was simply time Penelope needed to work her way towards forgiving him and restoring their once warm friendship, as his mother had suggested… Well, then a lifetime together would certainly suit that, with change to spare, wouldn’t it?
— or, Penelope is a storm Colin is determined to weather. A different take on the entrapment of it all.

Summary
“Your most powerful tool as a lady is rejection,” he said eventually, once their breathing recovered. “It is within your means to decline to dance, to correspond, to be courted, if you do not like him.”
“Would that not discourage other suitors?”
“Hardly. In fact, it will make you more desirable.”
S3P1 Expansion/Rewrite | Colin teaches Penelope how to attract a gentleman.
