    Summary

    Michaela, whilst grieving and overwhelmed with the feelings blossoming in her chest for her cousin's widow, does the only thing she can think to do when asked so sweetly to stay, she flees.

    But now, after two years of running, she has returned to London, determined to make amends with the woman she has managed to convince herself she cannot fall in love with, under any circumstances.

    Yet her chosen path is not an easy one, for Francesca Stirling, now seething with rage, grief, and a furious current of feelings she neither understands nor can explain, is just as determined to discover the very reason for Michaela's flight in the first place, a reason Michaela is intent on keeping to herself.

    Summary

    When Francesca Bridgerton returns to Kilmartin House in the wake of her husband's sudden death, she finds the one complication she cannot manage: Michaela Stirling, John's cousin, still in residence, and still capable of unsettling Francesca with a single look.
    Michaela was the first person to offer Francesca comfort in London, and the first to abandon her without explanation. Now, forced into uneasy proximity by estate politics and watchful eyes, the two women circle each other through icy silences, sharp arguments, and moments of tenderness neither is willing to name. Francesca insists she is only trying to restore order. Michaela insists she is only trying to keep Francesca safe. But beneath the rules of mourning and the ruthless scrutiny of society, something forbidden begins to breathe.
    Francesca is forced to confront an unbearable truth: she may be losing herself to a love she never knew she was allowed to want. Michaela, torn between devotion and fear, must decide whether protecting Francesca means leaving her... or choosing her.
    The Widow's Reckoning is a passionate continuation of Francesca's story, where love does not replace what was lost, but dares to exist beside it... even if it becomes scandal.

    Summary

    Sansa is used to liars. She knows how to read them.

    She has to.

    Grew used to them somewhere between her father’s head on a pike and the battle of Blackwater. She had perfected reading and playing them by the time she’d been wed to Tyrion. And by Ramsay? Well.

    Point being, she is used to them.

    And so, when Jon receives word that Daenerys Targaryen wishes to meet with him to discuss uniting under her name, she can’t help but scoff.

    (Or: A complete rework of the war between Cersei and Daenerys - that which Daenerys and Sansa fall in love in the midst of.)
