    Summary

    Gideon didn’t regret pushing Harrow out of the way of the oncoming pickup truck. Obviously, it would have sucked to see the nunlet flattened and shattered like a stepped-on Pringle. She did definitely regret getting hit by the car herself, even if she was not so much the Pringle as Harrow might’ve been. Breaking both legs in different places, vividly colorful bruising all down one side of the body, two cracked ribs and a big concussion – and, of course, the coma. Out for two and a half weeks, or 17 days, or just long enough for, apparently, the entire social dynamic of her life to change. Go figure.

    Gideon wakes up from a coma and believes that Harrow and Palamedes have started dating. What the fuck?

    Summary

    Ten years ago, Harrowhark Nonagesimus watched Gideon Nav walk through the gates of Drearburh for the last time. Presumably, never to see her again. After eighteen years of hatred and consistency—and then a few weeks of something else entirely—Harrow must live a life she once thought inconceivable. But she made her choice, just as Gideon made hers.
    And never the twain shall meet.
    But ten years later, Harrow's coworker-turned-frenemy-with-benefits makes her an offer she can't refuse. And things get unimaginably worse from there.

    Summary

    Shame was for those whose hands were free.

    Nav lived a tough life. In a world where the criminalized poor are sold to the highest bidder, Gideon Nav fought through her youth to stay alive. When a figure from her past purchases her ownership at auction, a forbidden love is rekindled - but deception is the only chance for freedom, and the cost of failure could be extraordinary.
