    Summary

    Five million dollars a season. That is the exact price tag it takes for Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler to look into each other's eyes on national television and pretend to be soulmates.

    In front of the cameras, they save each other's lives. Behind the scenes, they spit pure venom. The world worships them, but their legendary on-screen chemistry is a golden cage that has turned their private lives into an absolute desert. They are stranded in the exact same boat, bound by the same ruthless contract and the same dark secret: they hate each other's guts. Or at least, that’s what they keep telling themselves every single time the director yells, "Cut!".

    Summary

    “Me, court Penelope Featherington?” Colin replied on a laugh. “Never in your wildest fantasies, Fife.”

    And just like that, Penelope's heart shattered. When Lord Fife calls the next morning, she refuses to see him, her humiliation still too fresh to see one of the witnesses to her complete rejection at the hands of Colin Bridgerton. Eventually she agrees to see him and is shocked to learn that, not only does he want to apologize, but he wants to be friends. Can she really be friends with the man who'd led Colin to dismiss her? Could she trust he was truly regretful? Or was she being toyed with again?

    Summary

    Darcy was born with her words, and although that was not uncommon for girls, she had also been born with two sets of words, which was decidedly uncommon, not unheard of, but uncommon. On top of all of that, both sets of words were grey, and had been grey since the moment of her birth. Which was not only uncommon, but unheard of, because grey meant that your soulmate was dead and how on earth could very normal Darcy Lewis, not only have two soulmates, but two dead soulmates?

    Summary

    She should have died.

    Not only because it was practically impossible for the human body to endure a power as immense as that of the stones—Bruce had barely survived it.

    She should have died because what kind of cruel joke was it to let her live only to then make her die inside?

    Apparently, she wasn’t valuable enough to stay for, because the moment she had created time travel, Steve had run back into Peggy Carter’s arms.

    And while she thought she was alone after the departure of the man she believed to be the love of her life, the truth was, she wasn’t the only person Captain America had left behind.

    Summary

    The first thing Vesper noticed was how impossibly dry her mouth felt, with the lingering, distinct taste of salt clinging to her teeth. As she breathed, her lungs burned hot in spite of the oxygen cannula in her nose. She heard the beeping of machines next, then, when she opened her eyes, she saw the fuzziness of a sterile, white room.

    Finally, as she blinked her vision into focus, she saw an older woman standing over her, spikey grey-blonde hair and a stern expression on her face.
