Summary
In 1992, Madeline Ashton drank something she shouldn't have. She has a locked room on the second floor, a past she has been performing for decades, and an enemy who never stopped loving her — which is its own kind of weapon.
Now, someone calling themselves H. Perle Nash hires Selina Kyle to steal something from her. The money is incredible.
Selina is inside in minutes. She finds the object. She finds something else. She cannot stop thinking about it.
What follows: a love story, an investigation into what it costs to live forever, and the question of what it means when the person sent to take something from you becomes the person you want to give everything to. The ending is not happy. The love story is real. This is what it costs.

Summary
Miranda Priestly has survived three failures called "husbands" and decades at the top of the fashion industry. Surely she can handle one drunken phone call.
On the other end of the line: Andy Sachs, journalism intern, chronic overthinker, and —under the name Angel, three nights a week— the best listener Miranda has ever had.
Neither of them knows yet.

Summary
Mary Fisher has written four million copies of novels about what women want. She was the other woman once. Now she has one.
Andy Sachs left Paris with a bad credential, a Runway ID she can't throw away, and an assignment to interview a romance novelist whose life is actively on fire.
It gets complicated from there.
Set in the wreckage of She-Devil, after the wreckage of Paris.
(She-Devil (1989) / The Devil Wears Prada (2006) crossover. F/F. 1989)

Summary
Here is what twenty years looks like: a personal subscription, delivered to an apartment. A Harper's profile read three times and then put down. Buttons that were never inadequate.
Here is what twenty years sounds like: the hydraulic hiss of a privacy screen going up in the back of a Maybach somewhere in Paris, and then nothing, and then everything.

Summary
Miranda Priestly has excellent self-control.
Andrea Sachs thinks this is a challenge.
It is not a challenge.
It is absolutely a challenge.

Summary
Miranda Priestly does not make reservations. She does not get cold. She does not blush. She does not find Andrea Sachs' complete inability to identify the correct fork anything other than deeply irritating.
What she does do, apparently, is sit in silence for eleven minutes while Andrea scratches her arm without noticing she's doing it — and feel, with great displeasure, something she doesn't have a name for yet.
Miranda Priestly has survived thirty years of things in an industry that should have leveled her. She is completely unprepared for this.
