    Summary

    With a young son who cries more than he smiles, a house in a frontier town plagued by violence, a job that all but guarantees heartache, and a death certificate for his first wife, Sheriff Aaron Hotchner cannot imagine anyone wanting to marry him. But at the urging of his few friends and family, he places an advertisement in a national paper seeking a woman of fortitude who can love his boy and tolerate his temperament.
    Victoria Beauregard cannot imagine ever wanting to marry someone. She stopped believing in romance and happy endings years ago, too busy trying to survive on her own and outrun her past. But when an advertisement in the paper catches her eye, she cannot stop wondering what life would be like on the frontier with the widower and his son.

    Summary

    Madoka makes a wish that she could understand her feeling sooner, this should have been a one and done wish, that is, if she didn't have the karmic potential of god, so that wish resounded, altering her world's history and rippling into the new timelines, which causes a whole other stack of dominoes to fall, like for example, her wish fulfilling itself the moment her eyes meet the new transfer student

    Summary

    Min Yoongi doesn’t fall in love.
    He survives. He obeys. He bleeds quietly in the background while the empire stays standing.

    So when Chairman Kim offers him a deal disguised as a marriage—to his only daughter, Kim Soojin—Yoongi says yes, because saying no would be fatal. She’s elegant, ruthless, and terrifyingly perceptive. Their wedding night ends with him sleeping on a couch and wondering which poison she’s picked.

    In a world of hidden motives, bloodstained deals, and people who know too much, Yoongi finds himself caught between a woman he can't understand and a man who feels like déjà vu.

    The rest? Complicated.

    (or, 25k+ words on min yoongi getting girlbossed, gatekept and gaslit.)

    Summary

    “I did not enter this marriage under grounds of love or other frivolous feelings,” Rio said, voice steady. “It was an act of duty. Nothing more.”

    Agatha tilted her head, folding her arms.
    “You paid quite a high price for ‘nothing more’, Your Majesty.”

    Rio’s jaw twitched. Her eyes sharpened — dangerous controlled. But cracking.

    Agatha felt it. The shift, the restraint, the want.
    She wanted to break it.
    She wanted to own it.

    OR

    With the king dead and the kingdom on the brink, Princess Agatha is placed on the auction block — a pawn to be bartered for power, her hand sold to the highest bidder.

    She expects a life of misery. Obedience. Silence.

    She does not expect Rio Vidal. The cold, revered queen of a neighbouring realm. A warrior cloaked in shadows and secrets. A woman who seems determined to keep her at arm’s length.

    Their marriage is a weapon. A wall. A vow.

    But no walls are strong enough to stop what is destined to grow between them.

    Summary

    enigma (n.)
    a person or thing that is mysterious, puzzling, or difficult to understand.
    --------------
    Your families had decided this was for the best. A strategic alliance, they called it. Your quirk, Umbra Manipulation, allowed you to control and solidify shadows, an ability that paired well with Bakugou's explosive quirk. Together, they said, you'd have powerful children. You thought quirk marriages were old fashion, but your parents didn't care.

    Not that you had any desire to become a hero. You weren't like Bakugou—confident, brash, and full of fire. You preferred the quiet, the background, where you could avoid conflict and simply exist.

    But that wasn't an option anymore.

    Summary

    In a world ruled by duty and divine law, Prince Nico was never given the luxury of choice. Amongst a hall of sharp-tongued suitors and watchful eyes, he was bound to a fate he could neither fight nor flee. Yet on the night he tried, it was a stranger’s hand, a king’s hand, that reached out to help him escape. Who could have known that the man who offered him freedom would become the very one to bind him to his heart?

    Married to a king from a land as vast and untamed as the sea, Nico fears he has only traded one gilded cage for another. But Lewis, his betrothed and then his husband, defies every expectation... every impression hes ever had. Beneath his crown lies a quiet gentleness, a vulnerability that mirrors Nico’s own. An almost hidden need to belong as well.

    And as Lewis keeps the door to freedom open, waiting to see which path Nico takes. He begins to wonder...

    If the cage no longer locks, and the hand that now held him only wants to see him fly? could he learn to spread his wings?

    Summary

    Charles Leclerc is twenty-four, well-mannered, and sold into marriage like a piece of real estate while Max Verstappen is twenty-seven, a Dutch business heir with more money than mercy. Their union is sealed over champagne flutes and poker chips, polished smiles for Monaco society. Behind closed doors, it’s lace and battles, punishment and rebellion, champagne spilled across bare chests and whispered pleas in the dark.

    Charles begins as property, resisting with wit and silk while Max begins as mogul, demanding control. They collide in battles of flesh and will until they both kneel.

    Charles in love, Max in devotion.
