Summary
She was never supposed to be anything but a shadow. Now she’s the only person Lena Luthor trusts—and the one who lied to her most.
When climate tech billionaire Lena Luthor becomes the target of a calculated, escalating threat, she refuses the one thing that might save her: protection. Enter Kara Danvers—ex-black ops operative turned private intelligence agent—who takes the job under one condition: Lena can never know she’s there to protect her.
Disguised as a struggling writer, Kara infiltrates Lena’s world with surgical precision. What starts as surveillance quickly spirals into something more dangerous than the mission itself: intimacy. The closer Kara gets, the more tangled the lie becomes—until the night it all unravels in gunfire and betrayal.

Summary
Kate Bishop is a photojournalism student at NYU, talented but admittedly lacking in focus. When she’s all but forced to cover an international hockey tournament for her end of semester piece, it’s not exactly her dream come true. Kate has never really given a shit about hockey. But that was before she met the terrifying captain of Team Russia. Yelena Belova is one of the world’s best competitive hockey players - ruthless, driven, and talented beyond measure - and Kate knows a good story when she sees one. Sure, she’s strange and irritating and extremely distracting, but Kate can deal with it. But there’s more to this game than meets the eye, and when she goes digging and uncovers more than she bargained for, everything changes. The stakes are high and everything is on the line. But she can’t win alone.

Summary
Maddie looked around the carnage, pulling a handkerchief out and delicately holding it to her nose. “No teeth marks,” she mused, “the animal didn’t feed. That’s curious.”
As the men with her fanned out to obey her instruction, Maddie grabbed one by the bicep. “Back to the capitol building with you - we must double the guard on Ambessa and her inner sanctum. Until further notice, we’re on high alert.”
“At once, Commander.”
As he rushed back to the gondola, and Maddie looked around the carnage one final time, her handkerchief over her nose to block the stench. She looked, and she debated, and she sighed lightly.
“The prodigal daughter returns,” she murmured.

“Who better to stand in my stead, to stand as the Crown,” Viserys raises his hands, like he’s about to shock them all with his wisdom, “Than its trueborn heir.”

“And the Queen.”
The smile drops from her face.

“Why? What is it about me you find so interesting?” Alicent asked, unable to think of anything about her that would intrigue a fae this much.
“I’m not sure. I could say it’s because of your cleverness, although I haven’t been trying very hard to trick you,” the fae admitted, “though I have a sense you would dance around any word traps I tried to set.”
Alicent looked at her hands folded in her lap. “You give me too much credit.”
“I’ve yet to be proven wrong though,” the fae shot back. Then, she went silent for a moment, and Alicent could feel eyes roaming over her face. “I could also say it’s because you’re beautiful. Us fair folk have always held an appreciation for beauty in all its forms.”
or, after learning of a change to the arranged marriage Alicent has been preparing for all her life, she delves deep into the Hightower gardens to try and calm herself. She finds something, or rather, someone unexpected there.
aka all the Targaryen/Valyrian weirdness would make a lot of sense if they were faeries

"Eloise did not dream of white knights on trusty steeds or gallant princes from faraway lands come to whisk her off to a castle that might as well be a jail cell. Once she might have dreamt of a handsome printer’s assistant in a grubby print shop. Once she might have dreamt of the smell of rose water on skin and the sound of a tinkling laugh that delighted in everything she said. Now she dreamed only of freedom."
In which Eloise is an unsatisfied spinster and travels to Wales to meet a friend.

Summary
“At least there’s one good thing about this dumb show,” Fatin adds. Her tone is lighter now, the pitch of amusement. “The actor they picked to play you is, like, insanely hot.”
There’s a flash of something low in Leah’s stomach, red-hued and braided with envy; she frowns, bothered in a way she can’t quite explain. There’s definitely no sulkiness in her voice, not even a little bit, when she says: “Eh, she’s not that great.”
“Well, she’s a low three compared to the real thing,” Fatin agrees easily, knocking her shoulder against Leah’s. “But I’ll take what I can get.”

Summary
It's pure good fortune that leads Emma Swan to get a job at The Rabbit Hole, a specialist children's bookstore in New York City, on her very first day in the city. It's certainly not good fortune, however, that her path crosses with R. C. Mills, the reclusive author of the extremely popular 'Marisol Mendez' series. She can't stand the woman, even if Mulan reckons she spends far too much time talking about her for someone she claims to dislike so much.
