Gwyn and Azriel once had a week-long fling at a music festival where they were both performing. It was supposed to be a no strings attached kind of thing, so they both tried to put it behind them when the festival ended and their groups moved on.
Five years later, when a snowstorm drives the band Legends Written to seek shelter, they wind up at a bed and breakfast where Gwyn now lives with her daughter. It's not long before Az puts two and two together when it comes to the clever, friendly five-year-old with the long black hair and her mother's eyes. Throw in a local music venue/theater that needs an influx of cash to stay afloat, some small town holiday traditions, an upcoming Nutcracker performance, and a dash of friendly intervention, and it's a recipe for a Christmas Hallmark-esque romance for Azriel and Gwyn.
Modern AU plus Band AU plus Hallmark (let's just throw it all in there like it's an AU experiment)

The Shadows Between Stars
LiaLina- "tbh, the fact that i almost scrolled past this absolute masterpiece of a book should be considered a crime. Also that I only clicked on it because of the turtle" The worst thing you will do is not give it a chance! I know, I know. It's an original character with Azriel. But does Elain, Eris, or Gwyn have a super awesome pet turtle? I didn't think so. Novalie does... and she also has a ton of other secrets (ones she doesn't even know about). She also makes Azriel pretty happy. And desperate. And sappy. And touch her and ☠️. And.. Azriel and her pet turtle turn out to be bff. I think. So far... I mean at one point they have a moment where I wasn't sure who was going to win.. but they do work it out. First there was The Shadows Between Stars now There's The Crown of Dusk...

☽✧ Lost In Prythian ✧☾ {Rhysand x OC}
Estelle Beaumont just wanted a peaceful hike on her last day of vacation. Instead, one ill-starred moment of curiosity leaves her miraculously stranded in the fictional world of Prythian--a faerie realm full of ruthless court drama, rampant misogyny, and enough deadly magic to keep anyone up at night. Armed with foreknowledge that's only helpful when it isn't actively trying to get her killed, Estelle quickly discovers that living through the story of ACOTAR is far less fun and far more perilous when it's her own basic-ass, untrained mortal life on the line. Her plan is simple: keep her hands off of the plot and survive long enough to find a way back to the family and love she left behind. But the so-called "Mother" clearly has other plans for Estelle, forcing her to confront an unsettling truth--that her role here in Prythian might be far greater than that of a passive observer. As Estelle reluctantly abandons her original plan, uneasy alliances form, old wounds reopen, and fractured trust begins to mend. Love, loss, and scars of the past converge as Estelle slowly starts to see that the family she thought she'd lost might take a new shape, and that the life she left behind might be the only reason she's prepared for the fight ahead. But the cost of shaping Prythian's future--and her own--might be greater than she can bear. After all, it's a future that was never meant to be hers to begin with. And this is all that damned Cauldron's fault... ☆⊱──────⊰ ☽✧☾ ⊱──────⊰☆ A/N: Warning: This fanfiction is purely self-indulgent, with long-winded introspection and a major, major slowburn romance. Read at your own risk lol. Also if you don't like self-insert/iseki like tropes were an original character who read the books ends up in the fictional world as the new main character, you might want to skip this. Somethings will stay very familiar, others will diverge completely, and I plan to add extra world building along the way.

A Court of Soul and Shadow
ᴄᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ ✮ ᴀᴢʀɪᴇʟ x ғᴇᴍ!ᴏᴄ ✮ ᴛᴀᴋᴇs ᴘʟᴀᴄᴇ ᴀғᴛᴇʀ ᴀᴄᴏᴡᴀʀ The fall of Hybern should have been the end of it: the bloodshed, the violence, the strife. But all kingdoms come with a failsafe. An Heir rises, and an assassin wakes. She is a walking myth, a legend from nightmares. When the Deathbringer finds her way into the Night Court after centuries of dormancy, the Inner Circle sees her for what she is: not an omen, not a weapon, but a girl. She just might be the key to saving Prythian -- if she can first find a way to save herself. Assassin. Murderer. Monster. It seems like a fair enough trade: her shattered soul to take down the Heir of Hybern. And yet, the Inner Circle has another method in mind. The guilt of her past weighs like a world on her shoulders, though Fallon can't seem to deny it: this Court, these people... they're worth dying for. But they just might be worth living for, too. There's one in particular. One who speaks to shadows, one whose darkness seems to whisper to her own. There's a word hidden in that whisper, one she could never fathom until now -- until him. slowish!burn. plot-centric just as much as it is romance-centric, or at least imo.
Of Fire and Shadow
ACOTAR Meta Fanfic - What if Sarah J. Maas didn't just write A Court of Thorns and Roses... what if she lived it? When Sarah J. Maas vanished, everyone assumed she was working on her next novel. Her husband knew better. Desperate, he calls Lyra-ex-military, pragmatic, trained to survive anything-and tells her the truth... Sarah didn't just imagine Prythian. She went there. The portal that fuels her stories opens only for those it chooses, and when Lyra crosses through, she finds herself in a world of Fae courts, shadows, and impossible magic-a world that doesn't follow the rules of fiction. And she's about to realize that fiction and fate have thinner boundaries than anyone believed. Armed with nothing but her instincts and a soldier's will, Lyra must navigate the same deadly beauty that made Maas's books legendary. But the longer she stays, the more Prythian begins to change her-body, mind, and soul. To save Sarah, Lyra will have to survive the story itself. Because this time, the author isn't writing the ending-Lyra is. [COMPLETED STORY] Picks up after ACOWAR ACOTAR Meta Fanfic featuring Azriel, Lyra (OC), Rhysand, Feyre, Cassian, Nesta, Mor, Amren, Tamlin, Elain, Keir, and Dis (OC) ⚠️ Content Warning: This story explores trauma, survival, and healing-both physical and emotional. Lyra's journey includes scenes of violence, captivity, and intimacy (consensual and non). Please read mindfully and take breaks if needed. ❤️ My first fanfic. Literally started as a "what if" and spiraled into a full-blown, emotional, magic-fueled rescue mission through Prythian itself.
