Set in the late 1880s, All Our Yesterdays is the story of a young woman plunged into a world she doesn't understand. A world where power resides, where she is hunted and loathed for what she has become, and where she has to kill to survive.

There's humour, too, honest

Y/N had given up hope for ever escaping her wicked family, until one day, a kind and handsome stranger rescued her and brought her to the Castle Vascini. Once there she discovered that her rescuer was actually the Royal Tutor, who had been ordered to find the prince a bride in the next three months. Indebted to the man for saving her from her terrible situation, Y/N had no choice but to agree to the tutor's crazy plan to turn her into the perfect bride for the prince. But what if this plan ended up working a bit too well? Despair and hopelessness lay behind her, while trickery, danger, and obsession wait in masquerade for Y/N.

Sincerely Yours by tehyayoung

In 1800s England, a well-meaning but selfish young woman will do anything to avoid matrimony to the county's finest suitors and to justly prove she doesn't need a husband to find her way in society. Even under the peril of her uncle losing his property and business to debt. In all but two months, she must prove to her family she's more than capable without a husband and can, in fact, exceed society's expectations of the female sex. But what woman can write what she hardly knows of the world, and its secrets? And most of all, how far is she willing to prove herself toward society and the Lord? At what cost for love? Maxmillian Knightley has returned from university in London, now facing the looming title of marquis. With that title comes responsibility to interact with those he despises most, and with which he must fight for his inheritance. But how far will he go in order to grow favor in the scrutiny of society and his stiff-neck father? He may be everything a woman of the ton looks for in a husband - titled, wealthy, and cheek bones that can draw in any woman - but he is in no mood to humor eligible women by participating in all things reformed. The question is: how far will he go to do everything against his own sensibility and judgment? For inheritance ... or for loyalty and love? The only common enlightenment between two entirely different sexes? A fondness for penmanship and our humorous Lord who writes the very novelty of life itself. And what happens if proving oneself leads to something quite worse? When it comes to love, making the right choices, these two are their own worst enemies.

Leavitt Stafford and the Awful, Terrible, Not Very Nice Plan. by quatrecentvingttt

The year is 1865 and Leavitt Stafford, an intelligent and highly eccentric gentleman, has formed a most outrageous plan to battle God. This plan is so dreadfully immoral that you shan't believe your eyes! As this unspeakable plan progresses, the life of Leavitt Stafford gradually begins to unravel until it is an intolerable knit-knot of nonsense! And if the possessed baby and the divine kidnappings weren't dreadful enough, Queen Victoria is abducted by aliens, amongst similarly disconcerting occurrences. Can Montague, Leavitt's architecture-obsessed friend who is approximately as socially aware as a potato, and Marjorie, Leavitt's meek-but-insightful maid, impede Leavitt's dreadful machinations before it's too late? I believe it would be prudent to mention that the pansexual communist horses, who can travel throughout time and space with minimal exertion, believe this situation to be most entertaining.

Once Emily discovers that she has gone against her advice, and is once more aiding Blake, Emily's and Maggie's relationship reaches breaking point.

I looked at his eyes and put up a strong face. His eyes bore into mine as much as mine into his. It was like he could read my mind and reach out to my soul just by looking into my eyes.
