    Summary

    It wasn’t obvious—not enough for the commander or the other recruits to notice—but her damn fingers wouldn’t unclench, her heart wouldn’t settle. She had faced worse than this. Broken ribs, shattered knuckles, near-starvation in the streets before she’d clawed her way into the ranks. She’d learned how to smirk through bruises, how to swagger her way past doubt. But nothing—nothing—had prepared her for the weight of those eyes.
    The Empress’ stare had landed on her like a blade pressed against her throat, sharp and unrelenting. Blue as winter, so cold it stole the breath from her lungs. And yet… and yet—

    Summary

    “So,” Jayce drawls when they meet up for lunch. “Who’s this girl that Vi likes?”
    Caitlyn’s salad-laden fork freezes halfway to her mouth.
    “The who that Vi what?
    “Yeah, I was surprised, too,” Jayce says, oblivious. “Apparently she wants to impress a girl.”


    Vi has a crush on someone, and it’s ruining Caitlyn’s life. A.K.A. Caitlyn finally learns to ask for what she wants.

    Summary

    In present-day New York City, 30-year-old lawyer Caitlyn Kiramman is figuring out how to rebuild her life after a quiet divorce. Between long hours at her family’s law firm and co-parenting her three-year-old daughter Lavender, the last thing she expects is to catch feelings for a bartender.

    Vi, 28, works at The Last Drop—a dim, slightly run-down dive bar on the outskirts of the city. When Caitlyn walks in one night, Vi doesn’t expect her to come back. But she does. Again and again.

    As their late-night conversations turn into something deeper, both women are forced to confront what they want, what they’re afraid of, and whether they’re brave enough to let someone see the mess beneath the surface.

    Summary

    “What? I can’t ask you questions now?” Vi’s teasing her. It’s annoyingly disarming, and she would be lying if she said she wasn’t completely turned on by it.
    She breathes deeply. “I don’t have any plans. I’ll probably order dinner. Watch a movie. Fall asleep early with a bunch of files on my lap."
    “Come over.”
    “Excuse me?”

    Or the one where it's basically love at first sight, and Vi handles it a little better than Caitlyn does.

    Summary

    “I just - it’s a long week, and I feel safer around you. It still feels-”

    “-like someone’s chasing,” Vi finished, and the two smiled at each other - soft smiles, endearing smiles.

    “Yeah,” Caitlyn breathed.

    “Okay, so,” Vi said, “we can still hang out and stuff. But our first date-”

    “-will be one week from today,” Caitlyn finished.

    “Sounds good.”

    Caitlyn nodded. “Sounds great.”
