    Summary

    The balcony is empty. The air is thick with summer heat.

    Michaela steps closer than she should. Francesca's legs part, almost reflexively, for her husband’s cousin. Michaela slips between them and rests her hands on Francesca's thighs.

    She leans in. Francesca can smell the limoncello on her breath. Her nose brushes Francesca's cheek.

    "Tell me it's killing you like it's killing me," Michaela whispers against her skin.

    Francesca trembles. Her need pulses in her chest, her stomach, lower still.

    "Please, Fran."

    "We can't."

    "I know. I know."

    -OR-

    Francesca Stirling is a high-powered Manhattan attorney on her eighth round of IVF. Her husband's cousin, Michaela, arrives for the summer and immediately upends Francesca's routines. When her husband leaves for a work trip to London, Francesca is forced to reckon with the woman she has spent years refusing to look at — and with the question of whether she can finally become herself without breaking the man who loves her.

    Summary

    University AU where Francesca is supposed to be in a perfectly loving relationship with her boyfriend, John, with a sensible future of marriage and children on the horizon, right up until John's cousin, Michaela Stirling, returns from a sabbatical abroad and Francesca finds herself, suddenly, hopelessly curious about another woman in ways that are utterly nonsensical.

    Now Francesca finds herself unable to stay away and trying very hard not to think about why telling Michaela she and John are dating feels like it would ruin everything. Surely keeping that little detail about her relationship status cannot be seen as lying if Michaela never asked. Right?

    --

    Or, finding the courage to be yourself before it's too late.

    --

    Doesn't love make us all a little crazy though? Or is that just Francesca?

    Summary

    This is ridiculous. 

    She should hang up.  

    She should tell Eloise and Penelope to mind the business that pays them and that she is perfectly fine without ever having had a climax— 

    “Hi, darling, my name is Princess—and I’ll be your playmate tonight.” The greeting comes quicker than Francesca had anticipated, her mind lingering for longer than it should on the way the operator calls her darling, “May I ask with whom do I speak?” 

    So focused on the sound of the phone sex operator’s voice, she misses the last question entirely. Instead, she simply blurts— 

    “What is a pinnacle?” 

    There’s a pause on the opposite end. And then, a tentatively confused voice asks, “A.. pinnacle?” 

    Francesca flounders for synonyms, “Yes, a pinnacle—the climax—a summit, an apex, whatever the hell they’re calling it around here I just don’t know what—” 

    Francesca’s nervous rambling trails off as she realizes the phone sex operator is chuckling lightly at her, “I’m sorry, I’m not laughing at you, I promise.”

    “Is this your first time?” 

    -

    Or, Francesca doesn't know what a climax is. So she calls a phone sex operator hotline to find out. Francesca/Michaela

    Summary

    “I do not know you.”

    “Yet I should like to know you.”

    Francesca finds that her eyes have already drifted back to her left, back towards Michaela.

    “I—” She feels her cheeks paint pink, “Well you should—” She coughs. “Not.”

    Michaela just smiles, nonplussed, “I fear your repellant disposition is having the opposite effect, Miss Bridgerton.”

    Francesca cheeks redden even further as she rolls her eyes, looking away again, “I told you to—”

    “Tell me then, Francesca..” Michaela purrs, turning towards Francesca and stepping closer. Francesca’s neck jerks right back to her at the sound of her voice. Her heels click once, twice. And she teases a small pout, a dangerous gesture indeed, “What mountains must I move to earn favor with you?”

    Francesca’s eyes unconsciously fall to Michaela’s lips for a half-second.

    And when she looks back up, Michaela's pout transforms into that same damned enigmatic smile.

    Holding her gaze steady, seemingly unaffected, Francesca finally suggests,

    “Perhaps you can start with Everest.”

    Or, Queen Charlotte decides to spice up this year’s season by adding a jewel to her collection of diamonds.

    Summary

    ”I barely touched it.”

    Rio sternly grabs her wrist again, pulling it into the stream insistently while Agatha struggles against her grip.

    ”You need to put it under cold water-“

    ”-It doesn’t even hurt-“

    “-Stop being awkward-“

    ”-I’m fine, really-“

    ”-Agatha, don’t move.”

    And that’s when she hears it.

    Don’t move.

    You don’t want it badly enough yet.

    The air leaves Agatha’s lungs in a rush. She hears every filthy word she’s heard whispered in her ear as she climbs higher and higher echoing in her brain. The faceless woman who’s been talking her to orgasm.

    Except now she has a face.

    It’s Rio.

     

    When Agatha Harkness discovers audio erotica she finally gets something that she’s never achieved through forty-two years of life and a god-awful marriage.

    Then she finds herself with a roommate with the most familiar voice.
