Summary
Liam’s shadow, the spoiled daughter of a fallen Tyrrish house, the cadet branded Venin behind her back. Sloane Mairi was never meant to be anyone’s weapon. But her signet is rewriting the rules of war and pulling her into orbit with the one man she swore she’d never touch.
A Wingleader built from his father’s rules and his own fear of failure. Dain Aetos was shaped by obedience. But Sloane’s defiance cracks his armor, forcing him to question who he serves and what he truly wants.
As ancient secrets come to light and cast Dain and Sloane as the centerpieces of the chessboard, a complicated bond coils between them. Not dragon-forged. Something worse. Because obsession doesn’t make good soldiers and sharp-tongued girls don’t make good secrets.

Summary
Lady Sloane Mairi never entered the Quadrant or bonded a dragon. Instead, she’s spent the last decade exasperating her aristocratic guardians, who expect her to do little besides mind her manners, smile pretty, and marry well. So when a politically-advantageous betrothal is finally secured, Sloane figures an arranged marriage will at least grant her some autonomy. After all, how hard is it to handle a husband?As it turns out, pretty damn hard, because the broad shoulders waiting at the end of the aisle belong to Colonel Dain Aetos, a jaded officer who gave everything to the war effort...and is decidedly Not Amused to find himself bringing home a tempestuous heiress.
Bound by law for the next four months, the couple merely has to endure their handfasting and they are free to part ways. But past wounds want healing, unexpected bonds demand forging, and blistering chemistry promises to set their plans aflame.
****
(Or, the arranged marriage, post-war, grumpy-gremlin AU in which Sloane is the feisty aristocrat who never went to Basgiath and Dain is the decorated war hero who is barely holding it together)

Summary
Violet is fine.
She's completely, one hundred percent fine.
So fine that her best friend has dragged her on an emergency vacation to Mexico to attempt to bring her back to the land of the living.
Not that she needs it. Of course not.
She also absolutely does not need to be railed to within an inch of her life by the gorgeous stranger who she can't quite manage to stay away from.

Summary
Xaden Riorson is hockey’s most dangerous weapon. Trapped on a losing team with a ruthless owner (Rex Tauri) and a tyrant of a coach (Augustus Melgren) who control every move he and his teammates make, Xaden is counting down the days until he can break free.
Violet Sorrengail has just claimed everything she’s ever worked for. She's the newest principal dancer at Navarre Ballet Theater, she was cast in her dream role, and just landed a career-defining brand deal that could launch her into another stratosphere entirely.
There’s just one catch.
Her campaign partner is Xaden Riorson - the broody, arrogant athlete who clearly doesn’t want to be there… or anywhere near her.
But when an out of context photo goes viral, a fake relationship becomes the perfect power play. It should be simple: a few staged photos, a couple of public appearances, a strictly professional and mutually beneficial arrangement. But nothing is ever as simple as it seems.

Summary
“You should come over this weekend.”
Finals were over. Classes were over. Violet had already dedicated her entire summer to working with Xaden on research, and for this brief moment, there were no responsibilities holding her back.
Well… there was one thing holding her back.
“Can’t,” she told him, surprised by the regret in her own voice. “I’m moving.”
Xaden, however, didn’t miss a beat. “I’ll help.”
“You’ll… help?” Violet questioned blankly.
---
Or the one where Xaden helps Violet move and then they have sex in her kitchen because they're allergic to fucking in beds in every universe.
Can be read as a standalone even if you haven't read the first one :)

Part I: The Duke and His Friend Violet
During a tense diplomatic visit to Calldyr, Duke Fen Riorson encounters a curious child—Violet Sorrengail, the youngest daughter of his rival general. Frail in body but fierce in mind, she disarms him with her unfiltered honesty and impossible hope. In her laughter, he finds something he thought he’d lost: light. But fate is not kind to dreamers, and even friendship can be a dangerous thing for a man bound by duty and war.Part II: The Little Duke and Duchess
Fen wakes in Calldyr to the echo of a nightmare—one that felt too real to dismiss. Was it memory, prophecy… or a message from the goddess Amari herself?Determined to change the fate he’s seen, Fen takes a different path—one where his son will not inherit pain, but the chance for something purer. He dares to imagine a world where ten-year-old Xaden Riorson meets eight-year-old Violet Sorrengail not as strangers divided by politics, but as children bound by something timeless.
But destiny is never simple. When the little duke and the little duchess finally meet, what begins as innocence may ignite the kind of spark that reshapes legacies.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail, number one student in her class at Harvard Law, has a secret: She has a penpal. And she has absolutely no idea who he is. He's a bit of an ass, but after years of anonymously writing to one another, he knows her better than almost anyone.
But after Violet graduates, the letters stop, only to suddenly start again when she moves back to Boston two years later for a new job — a new job that comes with a new coworker who manages to infuriate and attract in equal measure.

Violet and Xaden are lawyers who are really sharp about everything except what's right in front of their stupid faces (I wanted to find a way to write friends-to-lovers AND enemies/rivals-to-lovers at once, so here we are — lawyer idiots)
