    Summary

    "The Tuesday after she gave him the shirt back and he ruined her life with a scarf, things are suspiciously fine. Good, even. Service is smooth, dishes go out on time, there’s barely a raised voice in the kitchen. At one point Carmy puts his hand on her back to get past her and she doesn’t even react. Her self-control needs to be studied in history books. "

    (Or as Virginia Woolf said, "Yes yes yes I do like you. I am afraid to write the stronger word.")

    Summary

    She knows he looks a bit like Carm. She had it as a passing thought when she first saw him, and again when he picked up a chair with one hand. She’s resolutely not thinking about it.

    (Syd gets a boyfriend.)

    Summary

    The first inn they'd slept in for weeks was warm, crowded, and entirely too comfortable.

    Nami expects Sanji to spend the evening charming strangers. Instead, she finds herself watching him teach magic tricks to an innkeeper's daughter, and discovering that some things are far more dangerous than flirting.

    Summary

    “Louise, my dear, if I intended to leave everything to Felix, I’d have set the Wharf on fire years ago.”

    “You're weird.”

    “Aren't we all?”

    Or: Ten years after the original series, Louise Belcher has grown into exactly the kind of person Mr Fischoeder always expected she would. Sharp-eyed, difficult, and impossible to intimidate, she slips easily into his world of property deals, favors, and carefully constructed performances.

    The problem is that somewhere along the way, she starts caring about him too.

    Summary

    Samira Mohan doesn’t lose- Well, except maybe to anyone coached by Jack Abbot. The infuriatingly composed legend is responsible for every professional defeat on her record.

    So when she’s knocked out of Wimbledon by a 17 year-old, coached by Jack, of course- Samira thinks it can’t get worse. Then he’s named head coach of Team USA for the Paris Olympics.

    If she wants the one title she’s never won- Olympic gold- she’ll have to train under the man who’s not only outmaneuvered her for years, but who haunts her thoughts and dreams far more than she’d like to admit.

    She hates him.
    At least, she thinks she does.
    But the more time they spend together, the more she's unsure what burns hotter- resentment, or something far more dangerous.
