Summary
After a fire leaves her with nothing but ashes and a forgotten betrothal, Rey is sent from India to the cold, echoing halls of Wrenwick Manor. The engagement is nearly a year overdue, and her intended—Lord Solo—is a man carved by war, more specter than savior. The marriage should have been voided, but he never withdrew the offer.
Yorkshire is bleak. The manor, bleaker still. And yet beneath its withering silence, something begins to stir. A memory. A hunger. A seed of something half-dead pushing through frostbitten soil.
He is running from a past soaked in blood. She is clinging to a version of this place that may never have existed.
Somewhere between locked doors and shadowed halls, they begin to bloom—darkly, desperately, beautifully.
A gothic romance about what survives the burn. About the ache to be known, and the terror of being seen. About roots that tangle… and rot.

Summary
“When we met," Yaz starts. "You were so obscure, unknowable. You took me all around the world, showing me what life could be like. I thought it’d be like this forever. I thought it would always be like this: you and me, toppling worlds in London, in New York. Like nothing could ever break us.”
“I didn’t know Scotland Yard would find us,” Maeve snaps, her eyes shining with an apology. “Or Borusa.”
“Neither did I,” Yaz replies. “I think—I think we’ve tried to tell our story to ourselves, over and over again, until it’s taught with unmeaning. I think we want it to mean something else than what it is. I think we’re stuck in the lies that we’ve been living.”
“I haven’t lied to you.”
“No,” Yaz’s eyes shine. “You just haven’t told me the truth.”
Following her cancer diagnosis, Maeve Smith is released from Holloway Women's Prison on compassionate discharge and is ordered to spend the rest of her days with her caretaker and best friend, Yasmin Khan. Business as usual—or it would be if Maeve wasn't hiding something and if the cracks that nearly destroyed their friendship eight years ago didn't come roaring back.

Summary
An accounting of the last hours of newlyweds Ben and Rey Solo spend upon the Titanic, their survival, seperation in the sinking and reunion.
“Even the sight of the rockets, announcing the presence of another ship, weren’t enough to raise the collective spirits. Titanic had disappeared under the water somewhere around 2:20 AM - Rey couldn’t be sure because she’d been looking to try and find her husband among those jumping into the water, unsure if she wanted to succeed or not. She hadn’t, and they’d been sitting in this horrifying stillness since 2:40. A few were sure it was a rescue, others were certain they were all doomed to die of cold, exposure or some other horrifying fate. Flying beasts from below perhaps? The souls of the dead might pull them all down, with watery fingers and accusation in their gaze. The Titanic had sunk - all things seemed possible."

Summary
Hecate Hardbroom is a spinster maiden aunt who has been left in charge of her rakish brother’s brood of illegitimate children upon his death. What she lacks in maternal instinct, she more than makes up for in her dogged desire to see that each and every girl in her charge receives a top education - so much so that she takes their studies into her own hands to see that it’s done properly. But soon, growing troubles with the estate pull her from the schoolroom and she finds herself fighting to protect the girls from utter destitution. Overwhelmed, she finds it necessary to engage a governess.
Requirements? Formidable. Bluenosed. Disinclined to wear pink.
Pippa Pentangle is none of those things. But she’s here to stay, and Hecate finds there’s little she can do about it.

Summary
Лорд Малфой служил в Отделе тайн с битвы за Хогвартс в мае 1898 года. Он проявил себя как двойной агент и стал известен как один из «Золотого квартета». Однако Драко никогда не был доволен тем, что один из членов группы скрывался от публики. Ещё меньше его радовало то, что никто в магическом Лондоне не видел Гермиону Грейнджер со дня битвы, когда она исчезла из больницы Святого Мунго.
В мае 1910 года король Англии Эдуард VII был убит темными волшебниками, и лорд Малфой, расследуя преступление, консультируется с экспертом Британского музея. Там его ждёт сюрприз.
Сюжет в некоторой степени соответствует канону (книги 1–4), но с учетом, что действие книг происходило сто лет назад.

Summary
Edwardian London, 1905. The Veil between worlds is thinning, and the city’s fog hides more than smoke. Its fragile defence rests on a mismatched band of seers and augurs, fighters and misfits, scholars with ink-stained hands — an odd company willing to face what creeps in on Whitehall’s behalf.
At its heart is Charles Xavier: brilliant, magnetic, arrogant enough to believe that charm and clever words can hold a crumbling peace together. But when glamour coils through music halls and the Underground, it draws the notice of Detective Inspector Erik Lehnsherr of Scotland Yard — Jewish, blunt, iron in his hands and in his temper, with a hatred of injustice sharp enough to cut through centuries of lies.
What Erik finds is a Concord cracking apart: Whitehall compromised, the Courts circling, conspirators already feeding on London. Charles, for the first time, sees how fragile his lifework truly is - and how much they may lose if they fail.
London is bleeding. Peace was never an option. But perhaps something better might be.

Summary
“You know,” Aziraphale said quietly, “I did see you in the cafeteria earlier. You were wearing sunglasses, but Shadwell said it was you.”
“That was you? I heard that!”
Aziraphale started to laugh. His laughter sounded like bells.
Crowley smiled too, completely involuntarily. “Gabriel’s always on me about those glasses. Says they aren’t part of the uniform. But other people get to wear glasses!”
“I do believe that’s because they need them to see.”
“So do I! Well. When the sun’s up. Can’t stand the bloody thing. Too Scottish, not used to it.”
The year is 1908.
The RMS Laetitia just left the port in Liverpool to go across the ocean to New York.
Crowley has been a seaman for years, and on the Laetitia for a couple of months. It’s not his first journey, nor will it be his last.
But when one of the officers sends him to find binoculars for the lookouts, he meets the crew’s latest addition. His name is Aziraphale.

Summary
When Vernon Dursley accepted a job at U.S. Steel and moved his whole family to Pennsylvania, including his nephew, he had no idea what sort of ramifications that that decision would have on the future of an entire world. The year is now 1910 and an 18 year old Harry Potter is making his way back to a home country he has few memories of and stepping unknowingly into a world he had never even dreamed of before.
An introduction to magic, as well as a whole new society filled with drama, scandal and politics. It is easy for Harry to get washed away by the wave of it all as he tries to find a way through. His stubborn ability to tread water, however, may lead to him being the key to turning the tide, especially with friends like Neville and Luna by his side.

Summary
Old Valyria was older than all of the ancient worlds. The Valyrian peninsula was home to the oldest city known to mankind, Drakarsyar, and was witness to some of its greatest inventions and scientific discoveries.
However, that was all destroyed in the Doom of 1001, when the entire peninsula erupted in fire and smoke. Everyone who lived there died and only a few houses escaped in time, most prominently the Targaryens.
The ancient house, travelled for many years, setting up homes in Italy, Austria and France. In 1066, Aegon the Dragon, assisted William the Conqueror in his invasion of England.
In thanks the newly crowned King of England let Aegon choose any dutchy he wished and allowed him to rule it and his descendants as they saw fit. Aegon chose Dragonstone, a large estate near Canterbury, and built Dragonstone castle.
The Targaryens ruled over Dragonstone for hundreds of years and was unique in the way that in the laws of succession, men had a superior right to inherit. And the only way to change that was to split the entire dutchy equally amongst the present Dukes children -legitimate and not.
