(Book 1 of the Mafia standalone series) "Do you need anything?" I ask, turning to Jeremy even though my voice trembles. Jeremy throws his head back against the cushions and smiles. "Keep speaking," he says, eyes half-lidded but glowing. I blink. "What do you want me to say?" "I'm so happy I was shot" he murmurs, grinning up at the ceiling like a lunatic. My mouth drops open. "If I'd known hearing that gorgeous voice would require a few bullets" he adds, "I would've taken them sooner. Happily." Heat crawls up my neck. "Keep talking, or I'll pass out" he threatens lightly, waving a limp hand in my direction. I roll my eyes, but I can't help smiling. "Jeremy Romano, don't pass out on me." His eyes fly open as if someone electrocuted him. "Say that again" he says, suddenly wide awake. "Don't pass out on me?" I repeat cautiously. "No" he breathes. "The two words before that." I frown. "Jeremy Romano?" His reaction is immediate, his smile brightens until it practically lights the whole room. "Say it again" he whispers. "Jeremy Romano." He lets out a dreamy groan. "I'll die a happy man." I slap his arm. Harder than I should've. He winces and I instantly panic. "I'm so sorry!" "Kiss it. I'll feel better," he says, smirking.

Lyanna Tyrell, princess of Highgarden, was raised in comfort and light, her childhood seemingly untouched by fear. Yet since she was very young, she has been haunted by the same nightmare: a dragon tearing her from her home. On her eighteenth birthday, that dream begins to take form. Her father tells her she has been betrothed to Aerion Targaryen of House Targaryen, grandson of the King of Westeros, a man feared throughout the realm as Aerion the Monstrous for his cruelty and vile acts. Lyanna begs not to leave Highgarden or be bound to a monster, but her father is unmoved. This marriage, he insists, is her duty. A Tyrell joined to House Targaryen will secure their house's future. As Lyanna is forced toward a fate she dreads, she must face a truth she has feared since childhood: her nightmares were never just dreams-they were a warning.

━━ in which the Brigertons are not the only prolific family with oddly named children, and they become tied in the the most common way of all. [oc x benedict brigerton] [season2 with book elements]

❝ London smelled of rain and coal. It was heavier than she imagined, colder, quieter. But there was something in Elena that refused to bend to new places. She'd learned long ago that silence and fear never built futures. Late summer of 1920 brought with it not only the quiet beginning of autumn, but also a wind of change, one that carried the scent of dust, sea, and destiny all the way from Mexico to London. It didn't take long for word to reach Thomas Shelby about the new woman in business. A foreigner, they said. A widow. Someone who spoke with an accent that turned heads and worked with a quiet efficiency. Because men like Tommy didn't notice easily. But he noticed her. The way her voice carried conviction. The way her hands, though small, never trembled. The way she looked him in the eye, not as a man to fear, but as one to challenge. She came to London chasing work and a better life. He found in her a fire he thought long gone. And neither of them knew that by the end of that autumn, the wind of change would burn through everything they thought they controlled. ❞ Thomas Shelby x oc 🐦‍⬛
