Summary
"I was wondering," Kate's hands fidgeted with the fabric of her sleeve, a nervous habit she thought she had conquered years ago, "at the start of the season, you mentioned there might be some widowers who would be interested in marrying me. Is that still the case?"
“My, my.” Lady Danbury’s brows lifted in surprise. “A turnabout, indeed.”
Kate opened her mouth to reply, but before she could form the words, the older woman’s gaze sharpened.
“And your sudden interest in marriage, would it have anything to do with your rather long and private conversation with Lord Bridgerton last night?”
[Or, the one where Kate decides to find a husband and Lord Bridgerton decides to make that as difficult as humanly possible.]

Summary
Kate was the prickly, overbearing, stubborn protector. Kate was duty and sacrifice and sharp edges designed to keep everyone safe—or so she had told herself. Kate had built herself from the ashes of Kathani's funeral pyre, brick by brick, year by year, until she'd forgotten there had ever been anyone else beneath the armor.
Edwina, Mary, Lady Danbury—they all rejected her. The protection her family once needed was now called smothering. Unwanted. Her guidance had become interference. Her love was controlling.
Well then, if no one wanted her anymore…so be it.

Kate proving she is desirable, and proving to herself she is more than a background character, that she deserves love, and those in her life earning it.

The Nature of Men by cassianendor

Summary
What she could have done to displease him now completely escapes her, but as Anthony is more often than not prone to aggravation, most notably in regards to her, Kate finds it best not to dwell on the matter. It is the nature of men, she thinks, most regrettably, to be frequently offended by matters that do not involve them whatsoever. Best to let them come to their senses in their own time than to worry oneself about protecting their ego.
