Summary
Elain Archeron has always been the mildest of the three Archeron sisters. The middle child, she always found herself overlooked—any flaws smoothed over by her beauty, any strengths muted by her strong-willed sisters. All her life, she’s been called soft and delicate. After killing the King of Hybern and watching her father die, however, she knows she’s anything but a gentle flower. Internally, rage chokes her, but she throttles it as she always has: smiling demurely, and letting her rose thorns scar her hands. When all else fails, she’s learned that you can’t scream if you refuse to breathe.
When a vision of true happiness with a red-haired male lures Elain away from the oppressive safety of the Night Court to the untamed chaos of the Spring Court, she begins to build a life—and a love—for herself. The only problem? She’s falling for the wrong male. With Prythian’s tenuous peace—and her own future—at stake, can she deny her own selfish desires? Or is the High Lord of the Spring Court exactly where her visions have been leading her all along?

Summary
Nesta Archernon has one more chance.
After last season went horrifically awry, Nesta has one more chance to make it on Dancing With The Stars, or risk giving up her dream of dancing professionally, forever.
To make matters worse, she's paired with Cassian Katona, a man who she had an unfortunate encounter with a year earlier that may have involved her foot kissing his balls with lethal force.
Nesta has to figure out a way to make this partnership work for her which will include making their relationships, whatever that means, believable on social media. Cassian is funny, charismatic, and ridiculously handsome, but will it be enough to counter the bitterness that seems to radiate from her soul?

Summary
"Worthless. Weak. Scarred. Disfigured. Grotesque. Unloved. Unwanted. Demon. Ruined.
These were words Azriel often repeated to himself.. especially when the sun had set and his demons came out to play. [...] Down the hallway towards his room Azriel shuffled, eager for a hot, steaming, *searing* shower. Maybe tonight… maybe this time… he would be able to wash away his sins from not only his body but his soul as well… if he still had any remnants of a soul left, that is…"I haven't written in years. But, after two margaritas, my creative juices started flowing... that or my insecurities have been drunk away into silence.
Regardless, I was planning on making this a Gwynriel short story based on the shower scene between Hunt and Bryce from Chapter 54 of 'Crescent City: House of Earth and Sky'. -

Summary
Manon Blackbeak is dead. At least, she'd intended to be, when she finally Yielded after four centuries of suffering in Erilea became too much to bear. But instead of killing her, Yielding seems to have only transported her to an entirely different world—wherein she is the only one of her kind, but very much alive. Grieving, alone, and thoroughly confused, she is offered a bed in an underground library and a second chance at finding the will to live.
Azriel is nearing his breaking point. Having discovered his claim to a particularly wretched piece of inheritance, he needs all of the support he can get from his friends. Instead, he isolates from them, his increasingly short temper and erosive jealousy for his brothers' newfound domestic bliss hindering his ability to deliver the solutions he owes them. To make matters worse, the arrival of Illyrian women to the House of Wind threatens to re-open scars he'd long believed to be healed.
Maybe a fresh perspective would do them both some good.

Summary
A year after the events of ACOSF, a fragile peace has settled over Prythian. The Night Court has turned its attention back to Hybern, where governmental collapse and poor harvests have created a desperate situation for the survivors of the war. The Inner Circle must play a dangerous game of politics with the other six courts if lives are to be saved.
Meanwhile, Gwyn has left the priestesshood and committed herself entirely to the Valkyries. She has made great strides with the help of her friends, but a close call during a mission shines a light on something she must still overcome. She approaches the shadowsinger with a proposal – one that he cannot refuse, despite his better judgement.

Summary
The breaking happens three weeks to the day after Bryce Quinlan retrieves her parents from the House of Wind.
It is brutal, and as unapologetic as Lady Death herself often was, when fighting for what she believes in.
More than anything, it is loud.
Books are thrown around the private library, glasses are shattered with the intensity of a power that was supposed to have been bargained away yet lingered.
Unofficially (yet all but officially) confined to this place that was somehow both a beloved home and glorified prison, banned from her work in the Library or from interacting too frequently with her Valkyries, Nesta Archeron shatters into a million pieces.
Screaming and wailing, she breaks for hours, nearly throwing herself off the nearest balcony, before the lights flicker and a stray curtain wisps out to catch at her ankles, drawing her back.
Nesta Archeron breaks on a bright, sunny morning.
No one is there to witness it.
No one except a magical abode and its many, many ghosts.
The aftermath is as follows.

Summary
Elain Archeron thought her visions were the Cauldron’s only gift. But when they began ensnaring her in her sleep, she realized there's more to uncover. Turns out, she was much more than just a seer.
While helping Elain with her newfound abilities, Azriel finds his shadows shifting in ways he couldn't understand. As buried histories surface, the two are pulled into the unraveling of a long-forgotten curse left behind by Koschei, waiting to be unleashed into the world again. The curse is a disease which infests the souls, then rots the body from within. Unseen by everyone but those blessed with the sight.
For whatever reason, the Cauldron has chosen Elain to deal with the curse. But it’s what she chooses to become that will decide the fate of their world.

Summary
Azriel has gone rogue. After a woman from another world lands at his feet, his entire universe is turned inside out. At war with himself internally, fighting for shreds of sanity, Azriel is pivoted against his friends and family–the Inner Circle.
His grip on control fades as he feels an internal thread disintegrating; he realizes he has felt the woman die. Azriel is faced with an abrupt ultimatum; to either go on living without her, without hope, or try to save her life, whatever the cost.
Betraying everyone he loves in exchange for saving the unknown half of his soul–it isn’t an impossible choice. It isn’t a choice at all. He will travel across worlds. He will wield the Harp. He will go back in time. He will do this terrible thing, turning everyone against him. He will save her life. And she will save him.
He's been there the whole time.

Summary
I was not always this way. I have memories of a time before this darkness was pooled into me. When I spilled the language of creation, not in the service of good or evil, but simply because a world needs nothing but to be made.
Flowers need nothing but to bloom.
People need nothing but to breathe.
Water needs nothing but to flow.
Those memories are hazy now. For so many years, I have been fighting the inky black corruption poured into my being. I have since been broken, divided, silenced and reborn.
But once I touched her, I felt it. A vision of who I once was, and I knew that she was to be my salvation.
Slayer of kings. Protector of thieves. Bringer of life.
My Elain. -

You’re as much of a monster as they are.
Love will do that to you.
Was that what had done it? Was it love that had made her into this? Maybe so. She had died for love, for her sister and her family. And whatever had made her into this undead, monstrous thing—had that been love? Or something worse?A look into Nesta's point of view during HOFAS.

Summary
What would happen, if Cauldron didn’t mated Rhys with Feyre but instead with an Illyrian girl, which he would save from the camp like his father saved his mother?
This story provides you with a great deal of fluff between Rhys and Darcy. It follows somehow the plot of the original series, but it’s changed as the story progresses thanks to the different protagonist as she has her own impact on the whole plot.
I’m aiming to discover different sides of the characters we all know and love. How they would interact with someone that is not Feyre as Rhys’ mate. How would the Prythian look like and face the challenges.
The story begins with Darcy and Rhys already mated, to speed things up a little. If you want to read through their first interactions then please visit the first book of this series where I wrote just that.
Characters might feel off, even though I tried to keep them as true to themselves as possible. All characters originally found in canon are property of the most amazing author of fantasy, one and only, ours truly, Sarah J. Maas.

Summary
One year after Nyx’s birth in Silver Flames, Nesta and Cassian enjoy their mated life together―although, for no fault of their own, they haven’t officially mated yet.
(Their wedding planner―Rhys―is too much of a perfectionist, and they got roped into helping to fight an inter-dimensional war. In other words: routine.)
At this time, Nesta’s battle rages on two fronts: proving that Emerie’s wingspan is, indeed, the largest, and exploring her relationship with Cassian by putting him on his fours.
Cassian just has to put up with her.
