~The Domestication of Godfrey Parke~
Fandom: My Man Godfrey (Eric Hatch Novel Universe)
The chase is finally over, the marriage has begun, and Godfrey Parke is about to face his most daunting job description yet: becoming a husband to Irene.
Following their whirlwind reunion on the island of Palda, Godfrey and Irene Parke board a New York-bound steamer as newlyweds. For Godfrey-a man who survived prison, poverty, and the chaotic whim of the Bullock household-the quiet waters of matrimony should be a breeze. But as Irene changes her mind about their future house fifteen times in one afternoon, attempts to cook a disastrous "thank you" breakfast in bed, and tackles the art of housekeeping with terrifying literalness, Godfrey realizes that being a husband is a beautifully chaotic full-time job.
Escaping the watchful, skeptical eye of their tag-along friend Pete, the newlyweds navigate rough tropical storms and the even rougher waters of finding an apartment in New York that doesn't feel like a Bullock estate. As they await the return of Alexander Bullock from his improbable island-banking venture, Godfrey slowly sheds the armor of his past loneliness. A witty, warm, and chaotic fanfiction continuation of Eric Hatch's classic novel, exploring what happens after the happily-ever-after, and how two completely opposite people find a place to call home.
