It is a truth universally acknowledged that, should the worst woman alive on the planet propose marriage solely to procure a spousal visa and thus avoid deportation, the smart thing to do would be decline and immediately run in the opposite direction.
Unfortunately, Helen was stupid.OR
Madeline Ashton, editor in chief at Viva Publishing, is desperate to get married so she can stay in the country and keep her job. After thirty years, Helen Sharp still hasn’t figured out how to say no to her.

Summary
Her mother holds her face, a hand on each cheek. Her grasp is too firm. “Maddie. You do not want to marry a woman. You do not think women are pretty. You do not love women.” Madeline opens her mouth to protest but is silenced by the look in her mother’s eyes. “This is not a discussion, dear. This is something you are going to learn here and now. We will not have this conversation again. Do you understand?” Madeline nods, shakily. She doesn’t understand why, but she certainly knows what her mother means. And she knows to follow the rules.
Character study of Madeline throughout her life. She and her mom are both painfully aware that she's a lesbian but they're trying to pretend that's not real--lots of stuff with her mother, lots of low self-esteem depressing sex with men. MadHel, but it's gonna take a sec and most of it will be repression and yearning.

Summary
She had whispered his name. Yes, she must have had. At least once, before the world dissolved in a pair of frightened blue eyes. Or perhaps she had screamed. Not his name, but she can recall an inhuman shriek near her and the burn of her throat, scorched earth but in skin.
Helen isn’t dead and she has woken to silence.OR
Seemingly boring Helen Menville leads a quiet life. Her days revolve around her husband, her cat, and the Broadway diva she’s sworn to get kicked out living across the courtyard. Her plan to ruin Madeline Ashton goes off-script, or does it?

Summary
Madeline is making a comeback to Broadway in a desperate attempt to be remembered for something other than marrying her bitch of an ex best friend’s ex fiancé. Would she have done anything? Yes. Would she have purposely fallen down a flight of stairs in front of the entire cast and crew? Questionable.
OR
Madeline takes a hit to the head, aka falls down a flight of stairs, and forgets that she and Helen hate each other.
