Summary
Rey is a makeup artist who has found a sense of belonging for the first time in her life. After years of struggling, she's been working for Rebel Broadcasting System for three years, and her life seems to be sorting itself out at last. The network has quickly become her home; its cast and crew, her family. But her golden days seem to be numbered, as infamous interviewer and TV star Kylo Ren threatens to invade her safe haven in the aftermath of an incident that ostracized him from his original home, First Order Network. Leia Organa can't possibly look her in the eye and tell her she'll have to do Ren's makeup every single day for the rest of her career, can she?

Summary
“Do I know you?” he sneers coldly, and Rey gapes up at him, reeling.
She thinks briefly on the Hoh parking lot and how he’d nearly run her over, on the Hall of Mosses and how he’d stormed down the trail, and on how apparently none of that was enough to make a lasting impression. She snaps her mouth shut.
“No,” she replies, equally cold. “You don’t.”
Rey’s camping in the Pacific Northwest. Funnily enough, so is Ben. They don't exactly hit it off. -

Summary
His hair is unspun silk.
Thick waves of black sea Rey wants to get lost in. It's not a desire that comes frequently.
Celebrities can be spoiled and demanding, and Kylo Ren is as mercurial as one can get. But he sits obediently under her fingertips. Pliant. She wonders if there’s a hidden part of him that could be as supple as his tresses.
Hair reflects the personality, after all.
"Ready, sir," she says, combing a last strand into place with shaky fingers. Time is up and the Oscars await.
His dark eyes meet hers in the mirror.

Summary
The first time Ben sees Rey in a bikini, his oafish left hand just sort of spasms around a brand new tube of Neutrogena SPF 100+ face sunscreen, squeezing hard enough that nearly half of its thick white contents erupts—coating his palm, the mirror, and the floor—in one great big mortifying spurt.
It’s a metaphor from the universe even he can’t ignore.

Summary
Rey Niima, a model driving from Chicago to New York, finds herself broken down in the middle of nowhere, Indiana, without any way to fix her rented car.

Summary
Mr. Solo leaned forward slightly and entwined his fingers together to fold on his stack of papers where the wood of his desk would have been otherwise, and a somewhat wicked gleam took his eyes, and he had the nerve to smirk at her, “And what do you, personally, think of me exactly?”
Rey frowned, not sure what the tone in his voice was indicative of—teasing? Negging? Infuriating cockiness? It was all unclear—and her hands balled into fists on her hips, “Truthfully? I don’t if I can help it. Regardless, you’re not really the topic of conversation here.”

Summary
She moves into the apartment beside his, with her flowers and her singing and her brisk optimism, and Ben Solo knows himself just well enough to realize that a person like him really shouldn't have anything to do with a person like her. His good friend Snoke, of course, has other plans, because he gets a certain enjoyment from watching Ben - Kylo Ren, rather, as he calls him - screw things up. Which Ben inevitably does: but that's not where he wants them to end, and maybe Rey doesn't either.

Summary
Rey Niima has a one-in-a-billion secret. If found out, she'll become the target of religious fanatics and political reactionaries the world over. If they catch her, she'll lose everything, including her career, her freedom, perhaps even her mind. So, she pretends to be a normal, if highly unusual Omega, using her unique talents as an endurance athlete and automotive engineer to make a life for herself and craft a meaningful future.
Ben Solo is finally, finally free of his past. Still young, still a highly dominant Alpha in an Alpha's world, he has enough money from selling his startup to start a new life in Boulder, Colorado, safe from his mistakes, safe from his family, and safe even from Snoke. All he wants now is to be happy and share his life with the right Omega.
It's too bad Ben's past is coming for him. It's too bad his past is coming for Rey.

Poe is pulled in on a dark op to find the key to an old and devastating weapon.

Summary
Ben is a spy who grew up around spies. Rey is street smart scavenger. Both are looking for a fresh start. Their lives intersect in the Alliance, a covert organization whose primary mission is to keep the world safe from the remnants of the Empire, the criminal cartels that prey on the weak, and any other denizens of the underworld who seek to prey on those not strong enough to stand for themselves. In this world of secrets, half-truths and deceptions that live in the open, the greatest danger may not come from the outside at all. The real threat might just be the lies they tell each other or the truths they have yet to face.
