    Summary

    Violet Lanes is nothing if not a survivor. From the abuse in the foster system, to the unforgiving streets of the Lower East Side, Vi has taken every hit imaginable but has stayed standing. She’ll never stop. Not until her little sister has the life she deserves.

    Caitlyn Kiramman, however, could not come from a more different world. Daughter of a real estate developer and New York City councilwoman, Cassandra Kiramman, and the respected Doctor Tobias Kiramman, the Columbia pre-med student has wanted for nothing her entire life, every conceivable luxury at her fingertips. Her greatest hardship to date? Leaving the comforts of the Kiramman mansion in London for a penthouse in Manhattan.

    Vi has spent her life putting up walls, protecting herself and her younger sister from the world’s cruelties. When Caitlyn Kiramman comes into her life, Vi never expects any chemistry between them to grow beyond tension and attraction. But as Caitlyn gets closer, Vi finds herself facing emotions she’s spent years burying. Navigating a tangled web of class differences, trauma, and emotional walls, they find a bridge between their two worlds in the relationship they forge. Is it meant to be? Or are they simply Oil & Water?

    Summary

    “I’m going to die.”

     

    “…What?—“

     

    “I only have three months left.”

     

    Vi stared at her, expression unreadable, lips slightly parted—something Caitlyn didn’t look at for long.

     

    Great. She broke her ex-wife. Why did she even tell her?

    Caitlyn Kiramman has always been composed and reserved, her career-driven nature keeping her grounded. It also, inevitably, drove her marriage to its breaking point. Now, the only thing keeping her and her ex connected is their 3-year-old daughter. When Caitlyn is diagnosed with a rare, untreatable brain tumor and given just three months to live, her world begins to unravel, overwhelmed by emotions she’s spent a lifetime locking away.

    But what happens when the only person she can bring herself to tell… is her ex-wife?

    Violet Lanes wants nothing to do with Caitlyn—not anymore. As much as it hurts, she refuses to let herself get pulled back in. The divorce left scars she’s still learning to live with, and she’s made their daughter her one and only priority. But when Caitlyn shows up with news of her impending death, Vi is forced to confront everything she’s tried to bury.

    Summary

    But here and now, her infatuation and endless ire with the woman next to her would only widen, growing to swallow her whole. Her mother seals their fate with a stern, decided gaze. Her mother clears her throat, her cup of tea already half drank in front of her before she speaks.

     

    “In light of yesterday, and with the threat of Noxus looming over us, I’ve decided to appoint Ser Violet to be your sworn protector. Wherever you go, she goes.”

     

    The finality in her tone steals the air from Caitlyn’s lungs. She can feel Vi stiffen next to her, her breathing an increment heavier. Caitlyn dares a side-long glance, anger dancing on the tip of her tongue, and is stunned to see Vi already staring at her, open and almost wild."

    Summary

    Anyone would have told Caitlyn to stop this exchange right here, that it was a breach of decorum to have this bold and crass American address her in such a way. And yet, Caitlyn found herself suppressing a smile, drawn into this strange late-night conversation as if it were perfectly normal, as if she regularly had tea with women who carried themselves without a care in the world.

    The realisation struck suddenly, accompanied by a chill of social vertigo. To Vi, it seemed that Caitlyn was just… a person. An everyday person. The novelty of it was intoxicating and terrifying in equal measure.

    OR

    While attending Cambridge to carry on her family legacy, Her Highness Princess Caitlyn finds herself irresistibly drawn to Vi, a charming and unassuming American student who stirs longing and awakens desires that threaten to upend the young royal’s carefully scripted life.
