"Hold me close so I can finally... breathe" Marriage wasn't something Carina Bridgerton looked forward to. And true love was not something she dreamed of. She had declared it very clearly to her family that no marriage shall ever be expected from her entering into the season. Only, curse her luck, she had been named the royal jewel, along with her sister Daphne, the diamond. Now being an incomparable made both of them surrounded by suitors at every turn. And when she could finally breathe freely without having to be surrounded by climps from all directions, Anthony had decided to promise her to the biggest pig of them all. What happens when Carina and The Duke of Hastings lead the biggest scam of the season and fool the entire ton, only to find their relationship so much more than a sham. Inspired by 'Breathe' by James Arthur. (Book 1) (oc x simon basset) (bridgerton s1)

Marriage was the last thing on her mind when her brother, the Viscount had yet to mature enough to handle the responsibilities of being a head.

With her sister's debut, her brother's ignorance, and her family's stability weighing her down, can the girl find it in her heart to love another?

Love Island Season 7 USA Nic X Fem OC Cierra X Male OC Olandria X Male OC Better description in the synopsis;)

This story begins with Conrad in California, detached and disciplined, carrying the familiar weight of being the responsible one-the son who absorbed pressure, grief, and expectation until love felt indistinguishable from obligation. He is older now, sharper, angrier, and more self-aware, but still haunted by his past: his mother's death, his father's failures, and the wreckage left behind with Belly and Jeremiah. Everything fractures the night he meets Valeriya-brilliant, commanding, emotionally guarded, and immediately unreadable. Their connection is instant and volatile, built on challenge rather than comfort. Valeriya doesn't soften Conrad; she exposes him. She calls him out, refuses to be managed, and meets his intensity with her own. What starts as mutual fascination quickly spirals into something obsessive, physical, and deeply binding. Their relationship becomes the emotional center of the story: fierce loyalty, constant proximity, and an intimacy that is not gentle but deliberate. They move fast-not recklessly, but with certainty-building a shared life that feels private and impenetrable. Sex becomes routine, grounding, and expressive rather than impulsive; domesticity becomes just as charged as conflict. Conrad finds himself choosing her again and again-not out of duty, but desire. But as their bond deepens, the past fights back.

Elia nodded, fussing over his still-smoldering curls. "You're smoking." Percy flashed a cheeky grin. "You too, hotstuff." She rolled her eyes, exasperated, and held up his arm where the hair had singed off. His only response was a disappointed, "Oh." Elia Smith always imagined her days at Camp Half-Blood would be as ordinary as a demigod's life could be-just another kid trying to stay under the radar and make it to twenty. But everything changes when Percy Jackson crashes into her world, turning it upside down like a centaur in a china shop. Suddenly, she's thrown into a whirlwind of monster attacks, wild quests, and cryptic prophecies that force her to discover more about herself than she ever expected. Alongside quirky gods, bumbling monsters, and the weight of the world on their shoulders, Elia and her friends must embark on an adventure that's as hilarious as it is hair-raising.
