Let Me Be Your Anchor by Eleanor_Bradstreet

Summary
My head canon rewrite of An Offer From a Gentleman by Julia Quinn, melding the best parts of the book and Bridgerton tv show. This is not an attempt to predict/write Benedict's love story on the show, just an exercise in tweaking things I didn't like in the book. This is a Benedict and Sophie love story where Sophie has more agency, Benedict has more kindness, there are a lot more steamy encounters, and many more characters play a role in their coming together.
Posted as a multichapter fanfic, but it's not a fully written story start-to-finish. There are scenes and lines from the book that I want to preserve and expository bits that wouldn't be worth a rewrite, so those will be noted within the body of the chapters.
[exposition and summary notes will be marked in brackets]
Quoted lines from An Offer From a Gentleman will be written in italics and are the work of Julia Quinn.

Summary
To some, she was just another princess who was kind, generous and had ethereal beauty.
To the smallfolk, she was a dream and too good to share blood with the fuckers who rule Westeros and disgraced their lives.
To Aegon, she was the love of his life.
But the truth was Rhaenys Targaryen was the embodiment of the fire of Old Valyria.
Gifted by the Old Gods of Valyria, Rhaenys possessed a unique bond with dragons. In fact, by the age of three and ten, she had already bonded with two dragons, a hacthling and others to come.
Some whispered that she couldn’t be burned, while others believed she couldn't bear children like any other woman. Some believe she was the embodiment of dragons herself.
But neither Old or New Gods could predict or protect her from becoming one of the most significant players in the Dance of Dragons, the demise of dragons.

Summary
"If my mother and sisters can celebrate their birthdays with balls and parties and all manner of fine things, then my wife can expect at least some splendour on her own. Good day.”
As Mr Bridgerton swept out of the room, Mrs Crabtree knew with a bone-aching certainty that any such splendour that he spoke of was likely to come at the expense of her and her husband. Still, much like her master, she would be hard pressed to find someone she would rather see having a joyful birthday celebration than Mrs Sophie Bridgerton.
--
Mrs Crabtree is used to going above and beyond in her role as housekeeper at My Cottage, but as Sophie's birthday approaches and she is forced to withhold secrets from both husband and wife on behalf of the other? Well, she is not entirely sure that she is paid enough to deal with all of the mess that follows.
or: answer to the prompt, "Sophie’s first birthday post wedding"

Summary
When Laura Savelli’s noble family falls into penury - and deciding a life of honest labor is preferable to one behind cloisters - she runs away from the convent where her mother and sister are taking refuge, sheds her name, and joins the household of the Medici as Bianca’s maid. Laura thought she knew what she was getting herself into, but she never counted on catching Lorenzo’s eye, or that she, in turn, would be so drawn to a man beyond her reach.
