Summary
There's nothing like Summer in the city.
Nora McGovern considered herself normal, or at least she used to be. Career, husband, kid, good life, the whole shebang...is how it would be if she wasn't in the middle of the divorce of the century. And so what if this one annoying reporter who keeps pestering her at work keeps catching Nora's eye? A girl's only human.
Piper Wright wouldn't consider herself "normal", but at least she's sane. Enough. She's doing a job she loves, and with one sister and one and a half friends, what more could a girl need? So what if her beat keeps putting her in the way of an ice-cold stuck-up defense attorney who refuses to talk to her? A girl's only human.

Summary
“Piper, why doesn’t mom like me?” Shaun asks you one day in that out-of-thin-air sort of way children do because their social filter is undeveloped. Well…children and you, of course, but it’s really more of a professional obligation in your case. How else will you get to the truth if you don’t ask questions…is what you tell Blue whenever she looks at you funny each time you stop a stranger in the street to grill them on their current thoughts on the commonwealth.
But in this moment, just like in many others, you feel so, so bad for Shaun.
In which Piper Wright, Diamond City's star reporter, muses on the past, present, future, and what it's like to love the Savior of the Commonwealth.

Summary
When Greta made the trek from New York City to Rockford, Illinois, she did it for two reasons: to start a new adventure and to play collegiate-level softball.
When Carson made the days-long odyssey from Lake Valley, Idaho to Rockford, Illinois, she did it for three reasons: to get away from Lake Valley, to get a college degree, and to play collegiate-level softball.
Neither of them expected much more than that, but with the backdrop of an era marked by strife and unrest, truth can sometimes be stranger than the fiction Carson hides herself in, and true freedom, more than you ever thought possible, can be just in reach.

Agent Laura Hollis may have been green, but no one could truly prepare for the web of intrigue that was Berlin, nor the infuriating German agent who protected it.

Summary
“Wynonna and I were talking,” Nicole mumbles around her half of the sandwich, “About maybe doing like a cheesy double date?”
“My sister Wynonna?” Waverly asks, squinting. “Whose idea was it?” She kicks her boot a little.
“Not your sister Wynonna, one of the other dozen in town,” the other teases. “It was hers. I don’t think it’s anything nefarious.” She gives one of those sweet, butterfly-inducing smiles. “It’ll be fun—bowling, beer, fun.”
