    Summary

    This idea was born from a fic I read here on AO3 and genuinely could not stop thinking about. I kept waiting for someone else to write more stories like it. Eventually I decided to write one myself. Consider this my love letter to that premise.

    Hannah Wells is not a damsel. She wants that on record. She survived the worst night of her life and walked away. Just not the way anyone might have expected. She walked away with a daughter—bright and stubborn and entirely worth it—and the unshakeable conviction that she would never need anyone to save her again. She survived. She rebuilt. She is still rebuilding.

    Garrett Graham doesn't do complicated. Hannah Wells is the definition of it—guarded, exhausted, and holding everything together through sheer force of will. When the scholarship keeping her afloat starts to slip and the walls she's built threaten to come down with it, the last person she expects to steady her is him. She doesn't know how to ask for help. She's never let herself. Then Garrett shows up and stays, and Hannah is forced to reckon with the possibility that needing someone and losing yourself are not the same thing.

    Summary

    I'm obsessed—like, completely, absolutely addicted to Love Story. What an incredible show! I just had to write something about John. Hope you guys like it.

    Dayse is a brilliant brazilian petroleum engineer who hates New York but moves there anyway to build a serious career. Living alone in a luxury Tribeca penthouse, she accidentally meets her neighbor—John, who happens to be that John, America’s prince. Most famous legacy. Unimpressed by his name and very impressed by strong coffee and she immediately fascinates him. Between ambitions, sharp humor, near-death stories, and unwanted proximity to fame, a friendship begins that neither of them planned—and both of them underestimate.

    Summary

    "Miss Bennet," he said at last, very quietly, "it is fortunate that the rules of propriety spare us such games."

    "Is it?" Her tone was gentle, teasing. "And what if they did not, Mr. Darcy?"

    His composure showed visible strain. "If I were your husband," he said, his voice dropping lower still, "you would know precisely what I want, for I would--"

    Summary

    "Welcome home," she said, and heard the brittleness in her own voice, the mockery of the sentiment.

    "This has not been home for some time, madam. For either of us."

    Then he was gone, and Elizabeth was left in her carefully claimed sitting room, staring at a book she could not read, wondering how they had arrived at this--two people bound together by law and circumstance, which neither could escape, circling each other like wounded animals in a house too small for their shared misery.

    ***

    Trapped in an unhappy marriage, Elizabeth learns how to love her husband.
