Ariana is a stubborn, sharp-tongued historian who defends academic rigor above all else. Tom is a charming, cultured British actor trying to translate the past onto the screen. When a docuseries production invades Ariana's excavation site in Pompeii, the clash between science and entertainment turns into a forced proximity filled with debates, quick-witted banter, and feelings that become impossible to ignore.
After all, the rigorous truth of History is fascinating-but the romance between them wasn't in the script.

House Of Memories
Sherlock Holmes is renowned far and wide for his Mind Palace but Mycroft Holmes is privately known to have a House Of Memories. Elina Hooper is the twin sister of the sweet pathologist, Molly. French on their mother's side and being both graced with multiple talents from their late father's side; Elina paves her path at the tender age of seventeen to becoming a full time nurse to no other but Rudy Holmes. Time skip to four years on, the famous uncle to the Holmes brothers sadly passes away which gives meaning for Mycroft Holmes in the realisation that his departed uncle gave him leverage that during the moment, he does not quite fully understand. Another time skip to four years later, Elina finds herself constantly drunk due to the dismay of losing herself in the worst of ways to her boyfriend and finally decides for herself to do better, to be better and quite frankly, to not let anyone rain on her parade. During the case of what Dr. J. H. Watson; likes to recall as, A Scandal In Belgravia, Elina is down on her luck and reunites with her younger sister Molly in hopes to get her life back on track. To Mycroft Holmes, Elina Serenity Hooper is just a passing face but it can't be coincidence by the power of the universe that she happens to turn up at his office, looking her best with sharp senses and tactical knowledge applying herself for the position to become his newly established personal assistant? Perhaps Elina would admit in the end that her likeness for the Ice Man had blossomed early which in turn would slowly bloom into her first true love. Perhaps Mycroft would admit in the end that despite his tetchy aura and complications of being himself, he was indeed capable of being loved and to go as far as loving someone too... How long is thread, you say? Well, my belief is that it's as long as you wish before you cut it. Hurdles to jump, cakes to bake, angst to commence, does Mycroft have it in him to allow Elina to be apart of his House Of Memories?Complete

The Trouble With Mob Bosses (A Sandor Clegane Mob AU)
Sandor should have known better. He should have known what would happen. But he couldn't help himself when it came to you. Every single thing about you was like a drug to him. It didn't matter that he was lower in the mob hierarchy. It didn't matter that it could be the end of the world if the two of you got caught. And it certainly didn't matter than you were his brother's wife. The only thing that mattered was you. When you were practically given to Gregor as a wife, it was to keep your family financially stable. However, everyone knew Gregor's temper and you would soon become his favorite way to vent that temper. But things definitely take a turn for the better when you get close to Gregor's brother. You and Sandor begin an affair that would turn your entire world on its axis. No one could predict what would happen to the both of you. This is a Modern/Mob AU! It is based off a one-shot I wrote with the same title! I was asked if I would consider making it into a full story and ideas went crazy for it XD. I do not own Sandor or any other Game of Thrones characters that may or may not appear in this story. They belong to George R.R.Martin! I do however, own my cover AND the original one-shot this is based off of so please do not steal them (that includes reposting without permission. I've already had this happen with some of my one-shots and I was not happy.) You belong to you! This story will contain Mob-esque type violence and activities. There will be mentions of abuse though nothing graphic (this is Gregor we're talking about here), implied sexy times, steam, violence, blood and death, cheating(which I do NOT condone.) This story will have a lot of angst, but there will be some fluffy times as well. Of course swearing, but nothing to warrant a mature rating. THIS IS NOT A SLOW BURN!Complete

Royalty
You don't remember your real name. It's been too long. But when you meet the consulting detective (and his pet hedgehog of a partner), everything turns around for you. Especially when you meet the most dangerous criminal mind the world has ever seen ... None of these characters are mine, and bits of the dialogue are also taken from the show. None of those dialogue, or the characters other than "you", are mine, and they are all the property of the original BBC show Sherlock. #3 in bbcsherlock 9/4/23 ⭐ #1 in moriarty 9/4/23 💎 #1 in sherlockholmes 10/12/23 💎 #1 in jimmoriartyxreader 10/12/23 💎
