In a moment of anger, she stumbles upon a hidden letter in the book gifted to her by her father. Violet realizes that he was betrayed and killed to protect Navarre’s lies. Leadership is hiding something ruinous, and she is going to find out what it is, even if she has to become a rider to do it.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail is DONE. She's done being the dutiful youngest daughter of Senator Lilith Sorrengail. She's done trying to be the perfect girlfriend. She's done living up to everyone else's expectations. In need of a fresh start, she packs her bags - and her secrets - and moves to Brooklyn with her estranged brother, Brennan, to start over.
Things are off to a great start when she has a hot one-night stand - until she realizes the handsome stranger is none other than one of her brother's best friends, Xaden Riorson.
Things are complicated enough - they do not want Brennan to find out - but when Brennan asks Xaden to protect his sister, things get infinitely more complex. Everyone has secrets. And no secret stays buried forever.
Even ones that could bring down the government.

Summary
This is a collection of scenes from the trilogy - some that happened off page, some that I wish had happened. And Cardan's POV of the entire third book. This is super self indulgent.
Excerpt:
A faint brush against my palm. The gentleness of that touch frightens me, and I dare to break eye contact, glancing briefly at our joined hands. He’s drawing a very soft circle on my palm. The edges of the coin, he’s tracing them.
Terror sings up my spine. Cardan was looking for a weakness, and he just found it. My mutilated hand is viciously painful, more than I can bear, and he’s going to know. He’ll use it against me.
I lock eyes with him again. Wickedness is written into every line of his face.
“Cardan,” I try, “No—”- Language:

Disrespectfully Yours, Marinette Dupain-Cheng by fettuccine (LFA)
Fandoms: Miraculous Ladybug

Summary
Marinette Dupain-Cheng is top of the class. Straight A's, perfect attendance, and editor-in-chief of her university's premiere fashion magazine.
Or... she would be top of the class, if it weren't for her academic rival Adrien Agreste.
They've been competing for everything since their freshman year of college. If Marinette gets a 99, he gets a 100. If she gets an internship, he gets a better one.
Now in their senior year of college, they're ready to fight it out one more time to win student journalist of the year — and the scholarship that comes with it. But when a semester-long project forces them to team up, everything changes.
If they want to remain in consideration for the award, they'll have to figure out how to work together. Because in the cutthroat world of academia — and journalism — failure is not an option.Series

Summary
Marinette and Adrien were supposed to be the dream team: best friends and skating partners, a perfect match both on and off the ice.
But when Adrien abruptly leaves and gets a new skating partner, Marinette vows to show him just what he missed out on and become a champion all on her own.
Years later, an injury takes Marinette out of the competitive circuit, draining her of sponsors and confidence. Just when she’s about to give up, a certain skater is in need of a new partner and he’s requesting one person: her.
If they want to become a gold medal team, they’ll have to work through their grievances or the past will keep them, and their Olympic goals, apart forever.Part 1, 1-12: complete

Summary
“Is this okay?”
“Oh, no, this is good. Great, actually.” There’s such a hardness in his eyes that it almost takes her aback— she watches as Adrien’s jaw clenches in frustration, and then relaxes, and then tightens again— she wants to make it stop but knows that it’s best to let him work through it on his own. “Going on a faux honeymoon with my faux wife because our job demands it— the faux honeymoon, may I remind you, being in the exact same city as where our real honeymoon was going to be— and my faux wife being my actual wife I was in the process of losing while I’m still hopelessly in love with you. Everything’s great, Marinette.”
“I love you,” she whispers.
“I love you, too. Thank god you’re worth it,” he sighs.

Summary
Dreams had long been his only escape. Dreams of Ladybug, the girl who had always been there for him.
If only in his dreams. And only while she was also sleeping.
Because with the first rays of sunshine gliding over her skin, with the first fluttering of her eyelashes, from the moment she opened her eyes in the morning, memories of Adrien would vanish from her mind.
She would go on living her life.
He would always be the only one who remembered.
At least until they meet in the real world and fall in love all over again, something that would’ve been easier to do if Adrien wasn't a prisoner in his own home.- Language:
