    Summary

    The crinkle at the bridge of his nose indicated confusion. The way his lips turned down as he searched the room for something, or someone, else. The unfamiliarity in his eyes. All of it combined into an expression that made her heart sink.

    Or, Frank Langdon has amnesia

    Summary

    Actually, Mel's excited about a lot of things going into the new school year. She’s excited to co-teach with Dr. Mohan and Mr. Langdon. She’s excited to continue supporting the kids on her caseload from the previous year, and she knows writing their IEPs will go so much better now that she knows them and their families a little. She’s excited that her Physics class will be entirely made up of students she taught in Chemistry the previous year since they were a great group.

    There are things to worry about, too. She’s co-teaching with two new people again. The daily possibility that she’s going to do something overwhelmingly embarrassing in front of Langdon. She still doesn’t know where she should go during her prep periods. That she’s going to be just as alone as she’s always been at work, but with some added disappointment because she’s let her hopes get up, just a little.

    There’s no way that she and Langdon can co-teach as well as she hopes. She’s sure her bubble will burst soon enough, that her crush will fade, and everything will settle back to baseline.

    (It doesn't.)

    Summary

    Grounder Frank Langdon takes a wife.

    Or,

    One hundred years ago on the eve of nuclear armageddon, the wealthy elites escaped to bunkers and abandoned everyone else to die. Unsurprisingly, those descendants still hold a grudge. But the bunkers are finally running out of resources, and they need to strike a deal with the surviving “grounders” to replenish their dwindling stockpiles.

    When the leader of the most fearsome tribe, Frank Langdon, suggests a trade, the high council leaps at the opportunity. The colony will provide him with a wife. He’ll give a lavish dowry of foodstuffs and supplies.

    Mel is the unlucky girl caught in the crossfire. What starts as simmering chemistry turns into wildfire, a risk-it-all kind of love. But her mission is clear: save her people... at any cost.

    Loosely inspired by the television series “the 100” and bellarke

    Summary

    “Because everything is better in Pittsburgh.”

    These days, people described her as a "chill girl." A girl who didn’t cause trouble. The girl-next-door prototype. The kind who wears her heart on her sleeve.

    Honestly, she didn’t see herself as a chill girl. She was anything but that. People only thought that because they didn’t see Mel swallowing her emotions and letting them build up inside until her guts started to ache.

    It was her guts that led her to that bar after a hellish, chaotic shift. Her stomach churned as she knocked back a shot of tequila and watched Samira Mohan—her best friend—leave the party with Frank Langdon, who, very likely, was the love of Mel’s life.
