Summary
Francesca is in need of money to expand her music shop. Penelope thinks volunteering them for the newest late-night game show, The ChallengeShip, will be a good way for Francesca to acquire the money. The problem? Francesca Bridgerton is an unmated alpha. She's not even seeing anyone casually. But it's too late to back out. Things only get more confusing for Francesca when her best friend's omega cousin, Michaela Stirling, volunteers herself to be Francesca's pretend mate. This would be helpful...if Francesca wasn't head over ass in love with the woman. She's so fucked.

Summary
University AU where Francesca is supposed to be in a perfectly loving relationship with her boyfriend, John, with a sensible future of marriage and children on the horizon, right up until John's cousin, Michaela Stirling, returns from a sabbatical abroad and Francesca finds herself, suddenly, hopelessly curious about another woman in ways that are utterly nonsensical.
Now Francesca finds herself unable to stay away and trying very hard not to think about why telling Michaela she and John are dating feels like it would ruin everything. Surely keeping that little detail about her relationship status cannot be seen as lying if Michaela never asked. Right?
--
Or, finding the courage to be yourself before it's too late.

Doesn't love make us all a little crazy though? Or is that just Francesca?

Summary
"Would you kiss me?" Francesca asks the question before she can register how insane it sounds.
Michaela responds pretty much exactly how she expects her to: like she can't believe what she heard. Her head whips up, eyes as wide as saucers. "I'm sorry—what?" Michaela sputters out.
If the ground opened up right now and swallowed her, she would be thankful.
OR
Francesca thinks kissing is overrated until she kisses her roommate-best friend-crush, Michaela.
