    Summary

    “Ladies and gentlemen, may I present the tributes of District 12: Alice Ivy Clade and Jesse Wilkins!”

    It's strange how a few short seconds and ten words can change your life forever. Once a girl content with her music and days in the woods, sixteen-year-old Alice Ivy now finds herself thrown into a death arena with only two objectives: Get Jesse home and die as herself.

    When, despite all of her planning, she finds herself the winner of the 67th Hunger Games, she learns that no one ever truly leaves the arena. With the cold gaze of President Snow firmly planted on her and her family, she must learn to survive the most cruel game of all: Life as a Victor. But can she keep her family safe? Can she ever allow herself to feel human again?

    If Alice Ivy wants to live, she must begin to weigh survival against humanity, life against love, and honesty against security.

    Summary

    ‘As the head of the Fire Tribe’s daughter, I will be worried if you continue to blindly trust strangers like this.’

    ‘I did not blindly trust you.’

    He raised a brow at that. ‘Oh? Then what was your reasoning?’

    ‘You’re pretty.’ I simply spoke, Soo Won’s gentle smile freezing at my words as the room grew silent. ‘And I like pretty, golden things.’

     

    ‘That..’ He tried off, lost for words before he dropped to his knees beside where I sat on the bed, hiding his face against the cushions. ‘That is much worse.’

    or

    A fic filled with fluff, betrayal, heart ache, violence and romance between a man with too many secrets and a woman too curious for her own good.

    Summary

    Bridgeton/Pride and Prejudice meets ACOTAR well specifically Azriel

    Azriel, the Shadowsinger of the Night Court, has spent centuries in war and darkness. He has no patience for noble games, no desire for politics. But when Rhysand arranges his marriage to the infamous Jewel of Prythian-an effort to mend ties with the Spring Court and keep Azriel from dangerous affections-he is forced into a world he despises.

    Liora, daughter of the Dawn and Spring Courts, is everything he is not: a highborn beauty, the perfect courtly lady, untouched by war. To Azriel, she is spoiled, vain, and frivolous. To her he is a brute-cold, scarred, and lacking any grace beyond the battlefield. Forced into marriage, they are trapped in a battle of wills, neither willing to bend.

    For beneath Liora's silks and diamonds lies a mind as sharp as his blades. And beneath Azriel's shadows and scars is a longing he never dared to name.

    Can a warrior of darkness and a lady of starlight survive the storm ahead-or will their pride and prejudice tear them, and Prythian, apart?

    Summary

    “Is that a kid?” Husk asked dumbly. This was the first child he’d seen in—years, easily. Probably at least a decade or more. And, in Alastor’s living room of all places? Listening to his damn nightmare broadcast?

    All he could manage to utter was one question: “Why?”

    “That is a good question, my dear Husker!”

    “...You have no idea, do you?”

    The widening of Alastor’s grin was answer enough.

    ---

    Children are a rare in the Pride Ring, especially as sinners. What sorts of deeds in their short lives would lead a child to be cast into Hell? While Alastor never particularly cared for children, he's always been a bit curious about that, and about how growing up in Hell would impact their mental development. So when he stumbles upon one who doesn't seem too annoying, he decides observing her might make for some good entertainment.

    After all, how many children can tell you about intestines but have no clue what an angel is?

    AKA: Alastor finds a child and proceeds to revel in the chaos that comes with it.
