Summary
“Is it so unthinkable of a suggestion? Am I that off-putting, that horrible that you cannot even imagine pretending to date me?"
"No, Fran. It's not that. It's—" Michaela stopped, shaking her head and sighing. "You deserve more than that. More than what I'm looking to offer."
"I want nothing more!" Francesca spoke too emphatically, drawing attention to herself. "It's seamless. It solves both of our problems. You get a steady, unobjectionable partner and in turn, the estate. I get a reprieve from my family's haranguing, as they'll see I'm happily coupled. Nobody needs to know that our partnership is platonic masquerading as something more."
OR
Michaela can’t inherit the Stirling Estate unless she reforms her womanizing ways and Francesca can’t get her family to cease their incessant badgering about her finding true love. Realizing they both stand to gain from a relationship, they start up a fake one. Inconveniently for their plan, they’re already in love.

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
Michaela Stirling returns from four years in India to find the life she fled exactly where she left it, John's ghost in every corridor, and Francesca at the top of the stairs.
She had told herself the distance had taught her restraint. That she could stand in the same room as Francesca Bridgerton and call herself only a friend. That four years and an ocean were enough to make loving someone bearable.
She had been wrong on all counts.
Or
michaela and francesca spend several chapters inventing new ways to avoid admitting the obvious.
