Summary
Tom has an issue. He may or may not have accidentally told people that he has spoken for Miss Bennet, even though they are only friends. He blames this on the fact that she deserves much more than to be courted by the available suitors of London, and not of the strange feeling he gets from thinking of her with another man.
˟ ˟ ˟
Mary is determined to help her friend out when she hears of how Mr Hayward needs to be engaged to be married in order to be able to advance in his career. She understands how a solid home-life is important for a barrister, and so she steps up to be his pretend fiancé. It has nothing to do with the flutters she gets in her stomach when he looks at her for too long. Or any time at all really.Bookmarked by AggressiveCaring

Summary
Mary Bennet could be described with three words: intelligent, agreeable, and careful. She was also a damn good pianist, having dedicated her entire life to the study of the craft. As the only pianist for the London Symphony Orchestra, she was accomplished. Happy.
Right...?

Thomas Hayward, famous published poet, had everything he'd ever wanted. He worked hard for the fancy flat and the fancy clothes. Never in his life had he ran out of things to say, until too many years seemed to cause his well to run dry. That is until the most beautiful pianist steps on stage...Bookmarked by AggressiveCaring

Summary
Mary needs to start fresh. A new life with a new job at a new school, teaching her favourite subject: history.
Her own history has a funny way of coming back to bite her, as it happens, but maybe a new English-teaching acquaintance who won’t stop being kind to her will help with that.

Summary
When embarking on their anonymous email experiment, The Rules that TinternAbbeys and MrsMacaulayKnowsAll had set up were very clear:
1. No personally identifying information of any kind
2. No looking the other person up at all
3. No texts/calls/meeting in person
4. These messages are a way to reclaim a dying form of communication, so at least try to keep to some level of etiquette - it’s the correspondence that’s the point!Rule number four is easy to follow. The other three, less so…especially after Tom Hayward and Mary Bennet meet for (what they think is) the very first time.
A modern AU inspired by the film You’ve Got Mail.
