Summary
Captain William Ransom, Ninth Earl of Ellesmere, is assigned a covert mission by his commanding officer to uncover a rebel spy in the tiny parish of Rosewood, Philadelphia. Posing as William Dunsany, a young immigrant from England, he is taken in by John Rose and his beautiful half-Iroquois daughter, Anna. Meanwhile, he struggles to reconcile himself to the fact that he is not the biological son of the eighth Earl, but is actually a bastard born of an encounter between his mother, Geneva Dunsany, and Jamie Fraser, a known rebel and traitor to the Crown. Surrounded by rebel sympathisers, William must play his cards carefully if he is to uncover the spy... and he must also guard his twice-broken heart if he is to keep himself from falling in love with the enchanting, spirited Anna...
WARNING: There may be a few book spoilers in later chapters.

Summary
Rhaena Targaryen, tired of playing nursemaid to her two younger half-brothers, makes a bold decision-to claim Sheepstealer, the wild dragon that has made a home on the hillside of the Eyrie. Determined to be a dragonrider like her sister Baela and join the war, she rushes headlong towards the beast, and towards freedom.
Meanwhile, Rhaenyra has to contend with the new dragonseeds and ensure they learn the ways of the dragonriders. Addam of Hull-a newly minted dragonlord and bastard son of Corlys Velaryon-proves especially loyal, and she decides to award him by knighting him Ser Addam Velaryon.
When Rhaena returns to Dragonstone atop her new steed, Rhaenyra is both worried and impressed-the girl is far too young and inexperienced for battle, and is still untethered after the loss of her betrothed, Lucerys. Driftmark is still in need of an heir, and when Corlys decides to legitimise Alyn, Addam's brother, and declare him heir to Driftmark, there is nothing to stop Rhaenyra from arranging the betrothal of Rhaena to Addam, now the second son of an old and reputed house, and a suitable match for a princess.

Summary
The Ministry’s Family Protection Act isn’t just policy—it’s a weapon, cloaked in tradition, tightening its grip on the magical world. For Hermione Granger, the pressure to marry and bear children is suffocating, but the whispers of something darker are what truly terrify her. The war was meant to bring freedom, yet the autonomy she fought for is slipping away. She won’t wait for the inevitable. Instead, she escapes.
With Hermione already fleeing and even Percy—rule-abiding Percy—urging her to go, George can’t ignore the signs. The Ministry’s reach is growing, and when incentives fail, enforcement will follow. Expanding Wheezes abroad—once a dream—is now his only chance at control over his own future. But leaving means severing ties, abandoning home, and walking away from the last pieces of Fred that tether him to England.
Yet escape isn’t the same as freedom. The Ministry’s shadow looms, and as the world tightens its grip, Hermione and George must carve their own path—one built not on fear, but on quiet, unwavering defiance.

Summary
Aemond Targaryen is good at war.
Excellent, actually.
It’s how he wins the Dance of the Dragons: wholesale, unrepentant violence.
It cows the people.
It annihilates his rivals.
And so he sits alone on the Iron Throne in the end.
…As fate would have it, the throne is only the beginning.Mature readers only. Mind the tags. The lowest lows (and the highest highs). See chapter 1 notes and the Author's Note at the end.
