    Summary

    Gon Freeces has moved to his ninth school in ten years. He's used to the routine by now. But as he's shown around campus by the affable, if hopelessly nerdy Leorio, he sees someone who takes his breath away.

    It's love at first sight.

    Only, Killua Zoldyck isn't allowed to date. At least, not until his older brother starts dating. So Gon goes on the hunt to find a soul brave (or stupid) enough to court the campus ice queen: Illumi Zoldyck. And he thinks he might have found that brave/stupid soul in the body of the infamously deranged Hisoka Morrow. But Hisoka won't just do it for free.

    It's a mess of a situation, and enough to make Gon's head spin. But there's no obstacle so great that true love can't surpass it.

    Summary

    Toujours Pur.

    Some people say there are three types of witches and wizards: pure-blood, half-bood and Muggle-born.

    Some say they are all the same.

    But not everyone can be right all the time, and sometimes. Just sometimes... Someone is wrong.

    Narcissa Black just isn't sure who it is. And she doesn't like being wrong.

    She's got a lot going on: school, exams, a disinherited sister, strict parents, and thoughts that just won't stop running through her head.

    It's the start of her sixth year at Hogwarts, and the last thing she needs is problems with friends, new people in her life, romance, or a great magical adventure that may or may not involve hiding valuables, meeting werewolves, or hunting dragons.

    A lot is done for family and in the name of love. Narcissa will do anything, no matter how wrong it might be. No matter how threatening and confusing for one's soul it seems to be. There are two main forces leading people's actions: love and fear. She is lead by both.

    Sanctimonia Vincet Semper.

    Summary

    Fresh off a messy divorce from Stolas, Stella’s a wildfire of rage and feathers—until Darius Ironclaw storms in. He’s a hulking demon lord from Wrath, all scars, smirks, and raw masculinity, and he’s got one goal: tame the untamable shrew. With a voice that rumbles like thunder and hands that pin her in place, he marries her for power and vows to bend her bitchy streak ‘til it breaks. Sparks fly—angry, electric, and dangerously hot—as Stella claws back, only to find herself melting under his iron grip. Think Taming of the Shrew with a Hellish twist: blood-soaked pits, dagger-sharp tension, and a bedroom showdown neither saw coming. Will she submit, or will she burn them both down? Dive into this dark, sexy clash of wills—feathers will fall, and rules will shatter.

    Summary

    Peter was comfortable in life, and he was happy. He had his friends, and his place in the world, and a sound understanding of himself. He really didn’t need anything else–certainly not a romantic relationship.

    Unfortunately for him, Sirius didn’t agree.

    The one thing Gilderoy had always wanted; more than attention, more than anything really–was to be liked.
    But Gilderoy Lockhart was a shallow, pompous, prick. Everyone said so.

    So it had to be true.

    Summary

    Everyone knows Fred and George Weasley are the masterminds behind every clever scheme and carefully crafted plot within the walls of Hogwarts. So, when a frustrated Oliver Wood comes to them with a personal dilemma, the twins can't resist. After all, who are they to deny their beloved Quidditch captain-and what's more, an opportunity for a bit of sport?

    The mission is clear: Oliver Wood has his eye on the elusive Hufflepuff darling, a girl with a dating ban so strict it's practically legendary. Her one condition for considering romance? Her fiery, sharp-tongued friend, Han Yuri, must find her own perfect match first. Easier said than done, as Yuri's prickly demeanour and razor wit are enough to send even the bravest souls fleeing. But not Fred Weasley, and he is ready to sweep Yuri off her feet-or at least keep her distracted long enough for Oliver to make his own moves on her friend.

    His playful ploy quickly becomes something else as Fred realizes that underneath his opponent's tempestuous exterior lies a will just as stubborn as his own, and he has to remind himself that in this game, he's only playing her for a fool, not trying to win her heart.

    Because, in the end, all's fair in love and Quidditch.

    Summary

    Eleanor blows out a gust of air and lolls back in her chair, trying to exude some sense of casualness. "Please, don't be so dramatic. It would be one simple transaction, nothing more; no one needs to get hurt."

    "Simple? Let me repeat what you're asking of me: you want me to hire someone to date your brother, aptly nicknamed the Shrew of Nassau, without his knowledge or consent, so that you can finally one-up your father at his manipulative games and go out with Charles Vane." He pauses strategically here and Eleanor almost smirks; Jack Rackham always knows how to milk a silence. "Once again I have to say: where to start?"
