Summary
Thirty-one years after ACoSF, the Inner Circle are swept into the chaos of rising turmoil from Vallahan and their dangerous alliance with arguably the most despised Court in all of Prythian.
The daughter of two of the most powerful fae in history, Seren is vibrant, tenacious…and stubborn, impatient, and a bit reckless. As the world she knows crumbles around her, she is faced with a new, unrelenting pull to her mentor and friend, complicated further as their magic connects them unexpectedly. Seren must balance learning to trust herself to lead and wielding her growing power, discovering secrets along the way that have the potential to disrupt their Inner Circle and beyond, while protecting her heart from the confusing emotions that unfold around her.
After years apart and amidst the havoc, Azriel finds himself suddenly drawn to the daughter of one of his oldest friends. Even fears of inadequacy aren’t enough to keep her light from brightening his shadows, but when the fate of the Cauldron threatens his first real shot at happiness, the Shadowsinger is left with the eternal question: Is love enough?

Summary
Ramiel isn’t just a mere mountain.
It's an invitation.
To prove herself.
And to learn who she truly is.Feyre and Rhysand's youngest daughter seeks the pinnacle of an Illyrian's journey — to become a true warrior.
A prequel sister work to my initial novel, A Court of Light and Shadow (ACoLaS), after the wonderful prompt idea from @a_crownof_rumors_andwonder: "Spin off idea - one shot of Seren [OC from ACoLaS] in the Blood Rite"
Does reference ACoLaS; maybe not absolutely required reading, but small things will likely make more sense with that context!
Also, I failed to make this a one shot...lol
All original characters are my own; lovingly created to fit into the rich world of characters and locations owned by SJM!

Summary
Decades have gone by since the war with Hybern and Spring Court has long since been restored, even if it's High Lord is unwilling to forgive himself the mistakes of his past. But as the obligation of Fire Night approaches his Court, Tamlin must balance duty to his most despised of all Prythian's festivals while faced with the inescapable truth that the Cauldron has finally insisted on presenting him his one true Maiden — someone he'd wanted to keep as far away from him as possible.
A side story to my initial work, A Court of Light and Shadow

Summary
Elain is all alone at the Town House and Lucien makes a surprise appearance. They decide to "explore the mating bond," but for how long can they keep it a secret? And what happens when the Inner Circle starts meddling in their business?
Okay so this fic has been going on for much longer than I intended, but I love the drama! It was MEANT to be very little plot, mostly fluff, smut, angst, drama, shenanigans, and banter. But now its getting a little heavier with plot and angst because the characters are in charge not me.

Summary
“Spare me the self-righteous lecturing, Feyre. You and your new family believe yourselves superior: that anyone who is not deemed worthy by you must bow or be eliminated. I refuse to bow to those I do not respect: and I owe none of you any such obligation. Nor am I obligated to remain where my autonomy is threatened,” Nesta sighed, gentle yet commanding, her voice low and steady and unyielding. “I renounce all ties to the Night Court. From now on, you are no longer my sister.”
“Where will you go?” Feyre snapped, but Nesta saw it: the sudden realisation that Nesta meant every word.
“That is no longer your business. Goodbye, Feyre,” Nesta said softly. She rose to her feet, elegant as an empress despite her unkempt clothing. As she stared down her youngest sister, Nesta caressed the delicious power shimmering like slumbering embers deep in her heart, until her veins sang with silver fire, pure light, blistering heat, deadly yet silent.
Flame was silent: everything it met shattered and snapped, disintegrating, unable to withstand it.
She was flame. She was undiluted, unrefined, unapologetic power.
She told Feyre, “You will not hear from me again.”

Summary
Azriel gets a Mating Bond, it’s just not really what he expected. It’s actually pretty far from anything he had ever thought to expect, if he was being honest.
