Summary
The balcony is empty. The air is thick with summer heat.
Michaela steps closer than she should. Francesca's legs part, almost reflexively, for her husband’s cousin. Michaela slips between them and rests her hands on Francesca's thighs.
She leans in. Francesca can smell the limoncello on her breath. Her nose brushes Francesca's cheek.
"Tell me it's killing you like it's killing me," Michaela whispers against her skin.
Francesca trembles. Her need pulses in her chest, her stomach, lower still.
"Please, Fran."
"We can't."
"I know. I know."
-OR-
Francesca Stirling is a high-powered Manhattan attorney on her eighth round of IVF. Her husband's cousin, Michaela, arrives for the summer and immediately upends Francesca's routines. When her husband leaves for a work trip to London, Francesca is forced to reckon with the woman she has spent years refusing to look at — and with the question of whether she can finally become herself without breaking the man who loves her.

Summary
University AU where Francesca is supposed to be in a perfectly loving relationship with her boyfriend, John, with a sensible future of marriage and children on the horizon, right up until John's cousin, Michaela Stirling, returns from a sabbatical abroad and Francesca finds herself, suddenly, hopelessly curious about another woman in ways that are utterly nonsensical.
Now Francesca finds herself unable to stay away and trying very hard not to think about why telling Michaela she and John are dating feels like it would ruin everything. Surely keeping that little detail about her relationship status cannot be seen as lying if Michaela never asked. Right?
--
Or, finding the courage to be yourself before it's too late.

Doesn't love make us all a little crazy though? Or is that just Francesca?

Summary
“The end‑of‑year Showcase is in three weeks,” Danbury said.
“Sponsors, donors, alumni, critics. This year’s theme is Music as Theatre.” Michaela perked up. Francesca did not.
“You will perform a duo,” She added. “Together.” Silence.
Michaela blinked. “A duo? With her?”
Francesca’s voice was quieter but no less startled. “With her?”
“Yes,” Danbury snapped. “With each other. Do try not to look so horrified.”

They’re the Royal Academy of Music’s two brightest soloists who’ve never spoken. They have three weeks to create something that will turn out to be much more than music.Bookmarked by mostlymeh

Summary
“I’m sorry that I didn’t want abandonment to be the first thing that John’s son knew about you,” Francesca says irritably.
“Is it abandonment if I didn’t even know that John had a son?” Michaela wonders, draining half her wine in one go. Francesca has never been good at reading Michaela, but she doesn’t have to be to see that there is a decade's worth of deep-seated resentment simmering low. And she was never one to mince words, so her next accusation is entrenched in bitterness. “I can’t believe you never told me about him.”
Francesca's nose twitches. “Well, maybe you shouldn’t have left me before I had a chance to.”

Summary
Francesca has a hunch, silence is not an option when Michaela Stirling is around. "Have you seen Miss Stirling tonight? Has she gone to bed already?"
"Did Miss Stirling not inform you?" The maid wondered.
"Of what?" She mumbles.
"She has packed her belongings and left." For a moment, the world stills. The candlelight, the soft rustle of the maid’s apron—everything suspends. Francesca cannot move. She cannot think. She can only feel the now familiar, suffocating sense of loss settle over her again. Michael too, must think something is broken in her.
On the far edge of the ton, Michaela sits rigidly in her carriage, watching the night sky blur past the window. She wonders whether John is there watching over her. Grieving is certainly draining, but Michaela cannot help but be consumed by guilt. Guilt for leaving Francesca alone despite her promise to stay in Mayfair. But deeper still, guilt for the quiet flutter she felt when Francesca’s hand touched hers in the parlor. If fleeing to the farthest corner of the earth is what it takes to silence her own wicked mind, then she will flee. Even if it means breaking her promise.

Summary
For the first seven years of her life, Michaela Stirling was raised as Michael Stirling, heir to the earldom of Kilmartin. She grew up riding, managing land, and learning the responsibilities of a future lord alongside boys who would inherit their own titles one day.
This is how she met Anthony, Benedict, and Colin Bridgerton.
But no one could have anticipated that Michael would become Michaela. Or that her inheritance would pass to her cousin John, and the life she had been so meticulously prepared for would be abruptly snatched away.
Years later, Francesca Bridgerton enters society as the season’s Diamond, expecting a quiet and sensible future.
What she does not expect is John Stirling’s thoughtful courtship. Or the return of his cousin Michaela, her brothers’ oldest friend, whose charm, confidence, and complete disregard for propriety have only grown more dangerous with age.
And by the time Francesca begins to understand Michaela Stirling, it is already far too late.

Summary
Alicent Hightower didn’t hate Rhaenyra—she didn’t know her well enough to hate her. But she couldn’t quite understand the fuss, either. Maybe it was because they’d barely exchanged a dozen words, or maybe it was the way Rhaenyra seemed so... untouchable. She didn’t dislike her, not really, but she wasn’t charmed by her, either.

Summary
Alicent Hightower, Crownpoint University's Golden Girl is having a spectacularly bad day. A month after dumping her boyfriend, Mr. Golden Boy, Criston Cole, she spots him holding court with a new girl on his arm. Furious and desperate to prove she can move on too, she does something drastic. Something dumb ... something so unlike her and kisses the first person her eyes land on.
Rhaenyra Targaryen is just trying to text her friends in peace. Now she’s got lip gloss on her chin, a furious star athlete glaring at her from across the quad, and the most beautiful stranger propositioning her to "play along." Now she's navigating frat parties where she doesn’t know the dress code, cheering at football games she doesn’t know the rules to, and trying to remember holding hands is strictly platonic and for public consumption only.

Summary
Rhaenyra has Luke in her arms, the boy grinning at his mom. “Greetings, Princess. Your Grace.” She smiles at them, bowing as Helaena laughs at her mother’s antics.
If Alicent ignores the absence of the ring on her finger, she might believe nothing had ever changed. That two years hadn’t passed since their divorce, since they succumbed, since Alicent made the decision for them both and Rhaenyra had accepted. That she was returning home with their children and they’d sit on the couch watching a film, the kids falling asleep on them. It could be like before, a team, a family.
Or
Rhaenyra and Alicent are divorced. They still love each other. They’re both miserable. If only they’d just talk
Or
Welcome to the angsty divorced lesbian drama!
