    Summary

    Elizabeth has lived in silence since childhood, certain that love and society have little place for a deaf woman. She has learnt to read lips, observe what others overlook, and hide her deepest fears behind wit and composure.

    Then she meets Mr Darcy. Their first impressions could hardly be worse, but as mistrust gives way to affection, both must decide whether love can be stronger than fear, pride, and the expectations of their world.

    Summary

    “Seventy years we will give you back, a gift of life you should have had, but nothing gained is ever free, paid in years they shall not see.”

    The deal is made. Yet when Maester Aemon wakes up, sure that it was but a cruel dream and he is still alive with the regrets of a lifetime consuming him, he expects to hear Samwell Tarly and Gilly and to still be at sea.

    Instead, he finds himself in a feather bed in chambers he has not seen in over seventy years, in a time he has no business being in, and with a man he had not hoped to see again sat by his bedside.

    Yet even the Gods can’t predict just how differently things go. Really, he should have known better than to expect changing the future to be simple.

    Summary

    Her realization came in an elevator. She was tucked into a corner when Borgov and four others boarded, and she tried to make herself small, unimportant, trying to look away but not quite managing. But she heard them talking. Understood what they were saying, thank god for her Russian lessons. The two men flanking him listed her weaknesses with such a casual air that she thought she was going to die right there: she was a drunk, she was angry, she’s just a woman-

    But Borgov cut them off.

    "She’s an orphan. A survivor. She’s like us - losing is not an option for her. Otherwise, what would her life be?”
