Summary
"All warfare is based on deception." - Sun Tzu, The Art of War
Book 4 of the Avatar Zuko series follows Lu Ten's adventures at Ba Sing Se. Nothing is fair in love and war. There's a lot of singing, writing, mutual pining, questionable battle sequences, and untold amounts of angst. You have been warned. It does get very dark towards the end, but I promise you, Lu Ten will get his happy ending and everything will be resolved in the last book of this series.

It was the early morning of June the 4th when Alec decided that something had to be done about the situation at hand. He was curled up in bed when a familiar arm sneaked around his waist, and the ever more familiar voice whispered, I’m glad you decided to spend the night.
Alternatively, a Victorian con operation for Robert Lightwood's money, where the piece de resistance is a mock wedding - now with a queer twist (or two, or three.)

Summary
A young English woman learns her long-dead father may be alive & involved in an ugly venture in the late 1700's conflict between European powers struggling for political and commercial dominance in the Americas. Accompanied by a handsome Spanish captain, who may be either her bodyguard or her jailer (and his very tall & rather violent companion), they search for the mysterious pirate who raised her and wind up rescuing a desperate young Middle Eastern man trying to save people from a cruel fate in the wilderness that is Colonial Florida.
Inspired by (requires less research than "based on") a REAL incident in American History. (This stuff writes its RebelCaptain self.Google it!) Pirates, Storms, Rum, Religion, Philosophy, Ideals of the Enlightenment corrupted by greed and the lust for power, cross-dressing. Spain v England while Portugal gnashes its teeth in the background and the American Revolution gets put on simmer. More than you needed to know about Indigo production, actual bodice-ripping of actual bodices (where appropriate), swords, 18th cen. History is full of angst and pain (and so is my writing) but I am going to try to make this little less. Fantasy. Sexy fun where I can manage it but this is me.

Summary
Family Feels, Unexpected Parallels, and Grand Uncle Bucky.
In his youth, Steve Rogers had been all but adopted by the Barnes family. After waking up in the 21st century, Steve goes looking for the last Barnes descendent: Stiles Stilinski. 70 years and three generations later, the family tradition of taking in strays still runs strong. It's a brave new world of superheroes and supernaturals that Steve and Stiles are both discovering - and trying to survive.
These are the (mis)adventures of the Barnes/Rogers family, the Hale/McCall Pack, and whatever their enemies try to throw at them. Pack is more than blood or bite, a team is not just the people you save the world with, and family is beyond the dictates of DNA. They are the people who you'd go down in flames for, who will always be by your side, and who you've still got at the end of the line.
It turns out Steve and Stiles have more of that than they ever imagined.
(Chronological posting of Phase 1 of Winter Wolves.)
