Disclaimer: i do not own the bridgerton material - only my OC. It doesn't exactly follow the bridgerton series, so sorry in advance if that's what you're looking for.
When Rosalie Bellerose, daughter of the powerful Duke of Roseington, enters London society, she has no intention of becoming the center of it.
Yet the moment she arrives, Queen Charlotte names her the Diamond of the Season, making her the most sought-after young woman in all of London.
But Rosalie is not interested in the shallow games of the ton.
She is intelligent, outspoken, and unafraid to challenge the expectations placed upon her.
Especially when those expectations come from Anthony Bridgerton, the famously duty-bound Viscount determined to choose a wife based on practicality rather than love.
Their first meeting sparks arguments instead of flirtation.
Their morning rides through Hyde Park become battles of wit.
And when rumors begin to swirl around their unconventional courtship, London watches closely as their connection deepens into something neither of them planned.
But love in high society is never simple.
With rival suitors, dangerous gossip, and the Queen herself placing conditions upon their courtship, Anthony and Rosalie must decide whether their growing feelings are worth risking everything.
Because in a Season where every eye is watching...
Love may prove to be the most scandalous choice of all.
And sometimes the rarest diamond is not the one admired by society-
but the one that captures a heart.

A Spark Of Scandal ¹ |A.B|
In a world ruled by decorum, duty, and whispered scandal, Valentina Rose Featherington has mastered the art of composure. The eldest Featherington daughter and the undeniable diamond of her season, she is admired for her beauty - but it is her intellect that truly unsettles society. She reads philosophy in secret, debates with precision, and refuses to marry for anything less than respect and equal regard. Anthony Bridgerton, Viscount and reluctant romantic, has long since decided that love is a liability. Bound by duty to his family name, he approaches marriage as strategy practical, controlled, emotionless. There is only one complication. Valentina has known him since childhood. She remembers the boy beneath the title. He remembers the girl who never once feared him. Their reunion during her season is anything but gentle. Every ballroom glance is sharpened by history. Every argument is layered with something dangerously close to longing. She challenges his authority; he tests her composure. Society sees rivalry. What it does not see is the way his jaw tightens when another man claims her dance. Or how her breath falters when he steps too close. Anthony insists she is impossible. Valentina insists he is infuriating. Yet neither can ignore the truth: their animosity masks a devotion neither has the courage to confess. As suitors close in and expectations mount, Valentina must decide whether she will choose security... or the man who both infuriates and understands her more than anyone alive. And Anthony must confront the very thing he fears most - not scandal, not society, but loving someone so fiercely it threatens to undo him. What begins as a battle of wit and will becomes something far more perilous: A love forged in fire. A bond built on history. A passion that refuses to be denied. Because sometimes the greatest danger is not falling in love It is realizing you have been in love all along.
Rewrite the Stars
Vivienne Ashcroft had spent years arranging the heavens. With quiet precision, she guided the hopeful toward their proper orbits-pairing hearts, calming fears, ensuring that every match aligned exactly as society expected. The ton called it talent. Vivienne knew it for what it was: survival. Benedict Bridgerton, meanwhile, had no interest in destiny. A devoted rake and an expert at avoiding expectation, he drifted from night to night with practiced ease-until his mother decided his future required intervention, and deposited him squarely in Vivienne's capable hands. She was meant to guide him toward someone else. He was not meant to notice how effortlessly she did it. But when the man who refused to follow any path met the woman who had spent her life charting them, something shifted. Lines blurred. Patterns broke. And the careful order Vivienne had always trusted began to feel less like fate-and more like a challenge. After all, Vivienne knew better than anyone that stars could be arranged. The question was whether two people who had spent their lives following-and fleeing-them were brave enough to rewrite them instead. -- Bridgerton Season 4 - Benedict Bridgerton x Vivienne Ashcroft Standalone Vivienne is my creation, and I own all rights to her.

The Bridge Between Us *Louis Tomlinson*
In 2017, Louis Tomlinson stood on a bridge in Los Angeles, ready to end it all. A stranger talked him down and disappeared into the night without a trace. Eight years later, Louis releases a song about that night, hoping to find her. His confession shocks the world and brings his One Direction brothers back to his side. When Louis joins Dancing with the Stars, he's paired with Cat Fernández-the talented pro with six Mirror Ball trophies and crystal blue eyes that seem oddly familiar. She's been keeping a secret for eight years. He's been searching for his savior. And every dance brings them closer to the truth. Some connections are worth waiting for.
His to protect
She was only twelve when Violet Bridgerton took her in-just for one night, they said. But one night became a lifetime. Raised alongside the Bridgerton siblings, she grew up in their home, their hearts, and under the ever-watchful gaze of Anthony Bridgerton-the heir, the protector, the one man she was never supposed to fall for. Now on the edge of womanhood, she's ready to step into Society. But Anthony isn't ready to let her go-not into the world, and certainly not into the arms of another man. Because she was his to protect. Always had been. Maybe... always would be.
Wicked Devotion
Elena Cowper was never supposed to return to London. Not after the scandal. Not after the heartbreak. And certainly not after Anthony Bridgerton-the boy who once swore to protect her-shattered her trust with a single, careless choice. Now older, wiser, and utterly uninterested in society's rules, Elena is back. And this time, she has no intention of playing by anyone else's game-least of all Anthony's. But the Viscount has changed. Duty weighs heavier. His family needs him settled. And the one woman he cannot stop thinking about is the one woman who wants absolutely nothing to do with him. What begins as friendship rekindled quickly burns into something far more dangerous. Elena makes him grovel, and beg, and plead-and Anthony, once so proud, finds he would kneel a thousand times over for her forgiveness. But love in the ton comes with consequences. Secrets linger. Reputations ruin. And for Anthony Bridgerton and Elena Cowper, the path to happiness may be paved in scandal... and surrender.Complete
