Summary
When Alistair, a video game reviewer for Denerim Weekly, signed up for the company's month-long carpooling scheme, he did not expect to be partnered up with fashion editor, Rozalia Amell: stubborn, high-maintenance, and tightly wound. Everything that he is not.
Two Hours. Thirty days. One very small car.
Personalities differ, playlists clash, and sarcastic jabs become their daily language. But somewhere between traffic jams and awkward silences, the two begin to see there’s more beneath the surface. Of each other, and maybe even themselves.

Summary
Alfie Solomons is the King of Camden Town. No one dares mess with him or talk back to him and they most certainly do not demand to work with him. Normally, he would be annoyed by this and finish it the good old-fashioned way but he is far too intrigued by the woman with topaz shoes and rose perfume.
Why, he cannot fathom, has an eccentric art historian entered his life and why is he letting her run rings around him? Only time will tell if she will be the making of him or if she will be his undoing.

Summary
“How does it feel? To have won, yet to have so little? Except my name will live on forever. Jack the Ripper. But what will they say of you?” Jack strides towards him, causing Jacob to take a step back. “Coward!” Jack yells in his face, making him jump in fear. “That’s what they’ll say. The man who sat back and did nothing while Whitechapel burned.”
Jacob feels himself backing away but Jack is faster and lunges at him, slashing his knife madly. He feels the pain of the knife cutting his eye as if it is real. He feels the pressure of Jack’s bodyweight upon him. And then he feels nothing but emptiness.

His nights remain plagued with terrors and he blames himself for what the rogue assassin had unleashed on Whitechapel. She hopes that when a doctor arrives, at the behest of Detective Abberline, that they will be able to get through to him and pull him back from the brink of darkness.

Summary
He stepped into the light. “It’s not often I’m noticed before I decide to be. You might be more canny than I gave you credit for.”
“So kind of you to admit your low estimations,” she laughed. “You might be more of an ass than I gave you credit for.”
In all his years of servitude, he had only ever been free to pursue and seduce prey that fit his master’s preferences. Not knowing the pleasure of getting lost in a body like hers felt like another way he’d been starved.

Astarion’s “Nice, simple, plan,” falls apart thanks to quick-witted and full-figured fighter Titania, aka Tav. Moral quandaries are inevitable, but they find common ground in a fondness for lying, violence always being an option, and former bosses from hell— in her case, literally.- Language:

Summary
Astarion used to be amazing. He inspired Vistri, and now she's the amazing one. Some out-of-touch corporate wizard decided to bring them together for the media attention (and thus, piles of coin). Can these independent, disastrous, bitter, insecure winners work together as Pair skaters? Or will they burn both of their legacies to the ground?
