    Summary

    Harry had gone most of her life without knowing physical encouragement, but it was not as though she had missed out in the previous six. They were full of hugs from Sirius, Remus, Hermione, and Ron; pats on the back from quidditch teammates and housemates alike. She was not touch-starved.

    So why did it feel that way after Professor Riddle had only set a hand on her shoulder?

    A little crush grows into something more between Harry and her favourite teacher.

    Summary

    Em Arthur Foster no longer has a name.

    She and one hundred and twenty five Earth-dwellers are sold off as a part of a prison reform program to a post-apocalyptic alien planet where even clean food and water aren’t available to humankind.

    Perhaps it is fate, or the intervention of the alien God, but she finds herself gravitating toward Mal’ek, the leader of their captors, and he in turn takes a special interest in her.

    Special interests are rarely a good thing.

    ————

    The humans are not sold to mate with the aliens.
    And as much as I love dubious HEAs, this one has a real HEA c:

    Summary

    I'm told this needs a horror tag and the previous blurb was a spoiler, so here is a new non-spoiler summary. Protect your mental health, this story is about someone very mentally ill.

    Katya Petrovna takes over the care of her mama and little brother when their father passes, and has to navigate a gritty, cold, and economically depressed post-Soviet Russia ruled by political corruption and organised crime. She meets Vitali Konstantinov, a seemingly nice man who woos her with flowers, gifts, and the temptation of a better life.
    But Vitali isn't as he appears.
    Kotik is the story of how nice girls get caught up in an ugly, complicated world, which makes them question their own morality and the extent to which they are willing to risk everything for a better life, a better future, and true love.

    WOW, okay, this sounds really wholesome. It’s not, but it does burn slowly. You just have to watch for the signs early on ;)

    About the cultural and historical accuracy of this fiction:

    This story takes place after the fall of Communism, spanning 1991-1999. Although the time frame is about 8 months, I have incorporated elements from that decade to illustrate what life was like during those years.

    Summary

    They would live in a home with mosaic floors and sheer silks would do little to hide her creamy skin. But she would be inside, free to work her needles and embroider black dogs on a field of autumn grass. And he would keep her safe.
