    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins is a humble grocer, living a simple, quiet life. He likes his solitude and his predictable routine.

    The police say the Sons of Durin are a crime family. The government has labeled them a group of environmental terrorists. Thorin Oakenshield will tell you that they are simply desperate for a home.

    But when Bilbo is dragged into the midst of the group as their unwilling burglar, his life will take a turn for the terrifying, and everything he has taken for granted will be torn asunder.

    Summary

    Plan B: an alternative strategy; a contingency plan, devised for an outcome other than the expected plan.

    Or, sending an unqualified temp to act as Thorin Oakenshield's PA because no one qualified can put up with him.

    (He'd say they can't meet his standards. Of course he would.)

    Meet Bilbo Baggins. He just became Plan B.

    Summary

    Take a dragon and get rid of it, take a Kingdom under the Mountain and let it thrive under Thráin’s rule, take the King’s eldest son - as proud and arrogant as you can picture him - and then send him to the Shire in order to refine his diplomatic skills. Or, as his sister puts it: to grow them at last. Now, throw in the Master of Bag End playing host for the dwarf prince: you’ll get a clash of cultures, an ill-advised bet about educating a certain hobbit in the dwarf-lore, and all the pride and prejudice business you could hope for, plus Khuzdul.

    A retelling inspired by My Fair Lady.

    Summary

    Bilbo just didn't understand; why would anyone come in every day, order cake, and then not eat it?

    Summary

    Fenris, captain of Starkhaven’s White Guard and the dearest friend of that country’s prince, has arrived in the kingdom of Kirkwall with a retinue of noble-born guards and a carriage brimming with lavish gifts. How else to win over the hearts of a suspicious mountain people who would rather break teeth on stone than accept the prince of Starkhaven stealing away their heir princess?

    But stone is all they have in their kitchens lately, and gravel in their quarries and ice in their bitter rivers, and Starkhaven sits abreast the richest lea and moorland south of the Minanter.

    And Sebastian Vael, the young prince of that country, needs a wife.
