I have known the Bridgertons for most my life. Daphne is my best friend and the closest to a sister I will ever have. Being the only child isn't just lonely. It's a constant reminded of the future I will have if something were to happen to my father, and if I ever try to forget, my mother will be there to make sure I remember. Then there is Lord Bridgerton-- Anthony...I have loved him for as long as I have known what love was. He makes my heart pound and my knees unsteady. One moment of weakness made it easier to believe he could love back, but my mother isn't going to wait for him to maybe ask for my hand. My reality is that I must get married and he will never want to marry me. I have one more London season to find my match before my mother makes one for me... ________________________ This story is based off the Bridgerton books series by Julia Quinn(that I highly recommend).

You and Benedict have been best friends since childhood, but things change dramatically once you come out in society. You're struggling to find someone you're as compatible with and who knows you as well as Benedict, all while trying to quell your ever-growing feelings for him. Shenanigans ensue.

"My heart ached for her when she wasn't near, but it skipped a beat when I saw her." It is Elizabeth Johnston's second debutante, she finds it pressuring that even the Queen is sending her hope in finding a suitable husband. While experiencing every possible emotion you could before be presented to society a second time, she finds herself falling for someone that she can't have. At least not in public for all eyes to see. ________________________________________________ eloise x fem oc I do not own any of Netflix's Bridgerton characters. I only own the ones in this story that are not in the show or books. before you read, i will warn you, i changed around the timeline of the siblings getting married just a little bit. :)

Juliette Rivers is crazy. Or at least that's what her parents think, not to mention the doctors. But she knows the truth, that the things she sees are far from imaginary. And worse, those things are out to get her. But maybe, just maybe, a little craziness is exactly what she needs to save her. "Oh Juliette, come out come out wherever you are. Come on my dear, don't you want to play a game with me?" He purrs. His words send a shiver of horror throughout my body. "I know you are out there Juliette, I hear that frantic little heart of yours beating. I can practically see your perfect pale breasts heaving in panic." He takes a few more steps forward then stops. A moment later, I hear him chuckle. He had found me." WINNER OF @ViktoriaRay and @_Tattered's SHIVER CONTEST Cover by @nameeramariyam All Rights Reserved 2013

For the month of January, we want to witness a wide array of emotions as we close the previous year and start another. This is a collection of stories where roads cross and diverge and where challenges, courage, and rebirth abound. Tales of brave characters who go into the unknown and tackle the trials or having to experience something new for the first time, those that will encourage us to look to the future and reminisce about the past. Reflection, valor, and hope-there are vast possibilities of fantasy worlds and characters that can begin again. So, take your past, enjoy your present, and leap with grace to the future! Together, we will face tomorrow.
