Sixteen-year-old Evienne de Roussel has dreamed of one thing since she was a little girl. More than anything, she wants to be a part of the glittering court of Versailles, flirt, dance, and wear beautiful clothing like her idol, Madame Pompadour. Time goes on, and on the day of her sixteenth birthday, Evienne learns something shocking about herself that will change her life forever. When family shame and tragedy bring her a new name, a new husband, and a place in Versailles, she quickly learns every dream has a dark side. Evienne meets Pierre de Ailiot, a widower with piercing blue eyes, a dimpled smile, and the most macabre job at Court. Monsieur de Ailiot paints those who are condemned to die, finding beauty and humanity in their final moments. He tries to mitigate the difficulties of his work and his broken heart with his other passion: painting beautiful women. When the two are swept together during the tumultuous demise of one of history's most opulent eras, intrigue and scandal make them both legendary--and works of art some wish to see destroyed.

Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy had more in common than one would expect from their bitter school rivalry. Neither wanted the life that was laid out or expected of them. Both had seen too many things and lost too many people to return back to the blissful ignorance they once held. They just wanted peace. And that was exactly what they found in each other. Strange events occur, causing Draco to wake up at Number 4 Privet Drive. In an unlikely twist, the two boys become infatuated in one another as the opportunity allows them to see the small things. Such as the way Potter's laugh sounds like hot chocolate on a cold night. Or Malfoy's eyes hold more secrets than anything. It's one thing to achieve happiness; it's another to keep it. There's a war going on outside after all. And secrets lose their meaning through word of tongue, so is it any surprise when their newest arrangement becomes the focal point of it all?
