    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins isn't sure about this. Not one bit.

    Frodo is definitely too young to enter into an arranged marriage with a dwarven king called Thorin Oakenshield. It's a good thing that Bilbo is there to chaperone him through their courtship.

    After all, there's no chance that a fussy hobbit bachelor would ever catch the eye of a king.

    Summary

    When Thorin agreed to take his nephews to the beach, he knew it would be anything but relaxing. He was prepared to handle water safety, roughhousing, incessant demands for ice cream, even a seagull attack. What he's completely unprepared for is a cute man smiling and waving at him.

    Bilbo's recently orphaned young cousin doesn't like to swim, but he loves to play in the sand. Since Bilbo adopted the boy, a shady spot at the beach has become their favorite retreat from the challenges of navigating a new life together. An unexpected meeting with a handsome stranger and two boisterous children is hardly what Bilbo's looking for--but it could be just what he needs.

    Summary

    The fields were quiet. Too quiet. Even the birds had gone still.

    Frerin reached down, brushing his fingers along the deep gouges in the dirt. His hand came away black.

    “That’s not mud,” Dwalin muttered.

    From behind the hedgerow, a low growl echoed.

    Then came the screech. sharp, guttural, inhuman.

    And just like that, the Shire was no longer safe. Belladonna Baggins never asked for more dwarves in her garden, or danger in her hills, but fate has never been much for courtesy.

    -
    With Thorin Oakenshield now an awkward fixture in Bag End (and a very large one, at that), Bilba is doing her best to preserve her quiet Shire routines. But with her adopted sons Fili and Kili caught between blood and belonging, and new visitors arriving at her door with more baggage than luggage, peace is harder to maintain than ever.

    Summary

    What he expected to see when he walked into the room was Thorin looking over documents. Maybe the television would be on but with the volume turned low. His suitcase might be set on a rack or even on top of a dresser with some of his things neatly lined up next to it or in the drawers.

    Possibly, it would be sitting on one of the beds.

    What Bilbo found, however, was not that.

    Sure, Thorin was there. He was reading through documents and looked quite fetching in his glasses. He did have his suitcase sitting neatly to the side with only a few things out.

    But the detail, the small little detail that really drew Bilbo’s attention wasn’t any of that.

    It was the single king-sized bed.

     

    Or! Gandalf sends two of his employees on a trip to negotiate an important deal. And they do! They do their jobs. But shenanigans also occur.
