Summary
Galinda Arduenna Upland is the epitome of goodness. Ever since she was a child, she had to endure her mother's glittering expectations for how a proper Gillikin lady should act. She lived up to them, of course. She got good grades, she was kind to all of her peers, she engaged in extracurriculars; she was practically perfect in every way, and she knew her place in life.
Enter Elphaba Thropp- absolute loner, shunned from all social groups at Shiz High after a scandal involving one of her closest friends broke lose. Despite her high academic standards, her controversial political opinions left her stranded when it came to attending further education.
Fast forward to senior year, and Galinda and Elphaba are thrown together in their history class- one that is dominated by males, and those with opinions that contradict theirs.

Summary
England, 1949
An unexpected love blossoms between Harry, the heir to a wealthy family, and Louis, the son of the head butler. Their childhood friendship transforms into a deep and secret bond, nurtured by stolen moments in the estate's gardens. But social differences pull them apart, and the weight of convention forces them onto separate paths. Years later, destiny brings them together again in another city, on another continent. Memories of the past resurface, forcing them to confront the pain of abandonment and the possibility that a love once thought lost forever might still find its way.
For the rape/non-con: nothing really happens, it is an attempt of sexual assault, stopped in time. I chose to insert the warning anyway.

Summary
Metropolis, 1953. A disgraced bureaucrat is hauled into court, a defense contractor’s name keeps showing up in all the wrong places, and Clark Kent is already late filing copy. Between deadline sprints and backroom whispers, Clark, Lois, and Jimmy start tugging on a thread that just might unravel into something far bigger: something with ties to foreign oil, shadow money, and a familiar bald name buried in the fine print.

Summary
Her angel, Cooper— he does all sorts of wicked things to her each night. All sorts of things that she’d never even dreamed of in her marital bed.
Wicked, sinful things.
But as if hearing her thoughts, Cooper whispers in her ear, “Sweetheart, if you love me, it’s not a sin,” he tells her. When he pulls back, even in the low light of her bedside lamp, Lucy can see the lovely glint of his hazel eyes. “And you do love me, don’t you?”
She nods slowly. Yes. She thinks so.

Summary
It’s the summer of 1959, and classics professor Stede Bonnet is determined to become a new man. He’s made two monumental changes so far: he’s resigned his position at the University of Chicago, where he has taught for his entire career, and he’s left his wife Mary, to whom he has been married for nine years. Now he’s off to the only place in the United States where you can get a no-fault divorce: the deserts of Nevada. He’s checking in to a so-called Divorce Ranch just outside of Reno, where he’ll spend the requisite six weeks establishing residency. After that, it’s off to California to assume his new teaching position and his new life.
It's the summer of 1959. Ed Teach has been living in Reno since he was a teenager. He's a radio DJ, an artist, a handyman and a fixture of the community, particularly popular in the underground gay nightlife scene that is still recovering from the brutal vice raids of the McCarthy era.

Summary
The room is not big, but it's not small either. It doesn't look much like an office except for the crammed in desks and typewriters. The floor is wood, stained dark. Light streams in through a barely-open window, lending all of the brown a forgiving sheen of gold. The rain must have stopped.
Several of the desks are overfilled with knick-knacks and books, definitely not in a suitable state to work at. Behind one of these, a man sits with his feet on top of the table and its contents, ankles crossed. If Eddie had to make a guess he'd say he's around Eddie's own age. White, with dark hair. He's wearing glasses.
Bingo. This is his man.

Summary
This was good. Joel could work with this. Dallas was far enough away without having to worry about hitting the reset button on every aspect of his brother’s life. He nodded quickly. He wasn’t worried about the kind of work he might be asked to do. He didn’t even consider it then - he saw a way out and that was all that mattered. But a wave of anxiety did wash over him which left him faintly trembly, weak in the belly. Everything was going to be on him, now. He had to do right by Tommy. There was no point to any of this if he couldn’t do it better than his old man.

Summary
Sara Sheffield knows she has everything she was supposed to want, a perfect husband, a perfect house in the perfect street, and perfect dreams for the future. And she does want it very much. Truly.
But something—or someone, rather—someone blonde, and pale, and pretty next door, helps her remember that there is more. That there was more. That there can be more.
