Rated T just in case. This is my imagining of the story of Alexander Colbourne and Charlotte Heywood after Season 2. This is my first story, so be kind and give constructive criticism. ( Edit: I can't thank everyone enough who is commenting and encouraging me. It has been a bit of a rough patch and writing is so soothing- having your enthusiasm and support is the cherry on top!)

A post-S2 continuation (sort of)

Picking up after Season 2 - Strangers Again follows Coulbourne and Charlotte's journey back to each other.

Charlotte and Alexander Colbourne are spending time together the day after their wedding. They have not left on their Honeymoon yet as they need to find a governess for Leo. However, Alexander has plans to surprise Charlotte on a romantic ride to a secluded area of his property where romance and intimacy ensue.

AU. An incident at the ball in season 2 episode 5 has impacts that ripple through several lives, changing them forever. Rated M, just in case.

After the devastating fire in Sanditon, Sidney Parker travels to London find investors to help cover the damages and is adamant on avoiding Eliza Campion. Sidlotte HEA guaranteed.

"Can we not rewrite our history, if we find it disagreeable?" This work is my take on how the story continues during and after the final events of Sanditon season 1, episode 8 and begins after the Babington wedding. NB does not take into account any released Season 2 developments, and tries to stay true to the characters and the story we know and love. Sidlotte HEA
