    Summary

    Violet Sorrengail is a forensic anthropologist good with only one thing: dead people. Their bones speak a language only she can hear, but the living aren't quite so easy to understand - particularly one FBI Agent Xaden Riorson, who does everything possible to get under her skin. When an unexpected murder victim washes up in DC, the ensuing investigation brings them closer together despite her every effort to stay away, and she's forced to decide if the careful distance she keeps around her heart is really worth it.

    Summary

    Leah was under no illusions that the family were right leaning. She knew, too, that her fostering had been part of a PR move on their part. 'Rumoured Death Eater family adopt Muggle-born so can’t be all bad' had very much been the tone of many articles written after her ‘rescue’. Mrs. Selwyn herself was very public with a variety of charities – war orphans and educating Muggle-borns – and Leah had spent many a weekend as a teenager being on hand for such occasions, brought out to demonstrate the Selwyns’ commitment to rehabilitating their family name.

    Summary

    When the man she was set to marry ends up meeting an unfortunate end two weeks before their impending nuptials, Hermione has to grapple with her place in society while keeping her secrets close to the vest. To complicate matters, the illegitimate half-brother of her dead fiancé has arrived to claim the inheritance that would have been hers in mere weeks. Severus is surly and reclusive after the war, and the last thing he wants to deal with is a sniveling woman; only Hermione surprises him. As the two navigate running an estate all while trying to discover exactly what happened to lead to Lucius's death, they will have to work together to uncover a murderer and thwart them from striking again.

    TLDR: Hermione is unmarried and unexpectedly pregnant when her fiancé dies in an "accident". Severus is set to inherit. They have to work together to find what happened before the murderer strikes again.
