Summary
Jack’s not sure how many more times he can go through this; how many more times he can watch Carter go through this. He can’t bring himself to tear his eyes away from the soft skin of her neck, fixated on watching the pulse there thrumming away steady and even.
Thrum-thrum. Thrum-thrum. Thrum-thrum.
It’s a subtle movement that he desperately needs to see right now—a perfect visible reminder that she’s real, warm, alive and still here with him.
Real. Warm. Alive.

Summary
“While the Copernican principle comes with no guarantees that it will forever guide us to cosmic truths, it's worked quite well so far: not only is Earth not in the center of the solar system, but the solar system is not in the center of the Milky Way galaxy, the Milky Way galaxy is not in the center of the universe, and it may come to pass that our universe is just one of many that comprise a multiverse. And in case you're one of those people who thinks that the edge may be a special place, we are not at the edge of anything either.”

Summary
Victoria went through her life, 63 years of reign. The Grandmother of Europe. That history was written from the moment she was born, because as a mortal, one always had to live through unbearable foolishness only to gain little wisdom in old age. So she lived then died, full of hindsight. Now she is offered a chance to restart all over again, at the fateful morning of 1837. With what she knew and what she wished she had known, no longer a young naive maiden of 18 but an older woman with regrets, what different choices could she make?

Summary
She was young, he’d been right, and so small. She couldn’t have been much above five feet tall, and it certainly had been an odd sensation looking down at his new monarch. But there was a strength in her voice – a strength with a tremor, for sure, and a lot of fake confidence that anyone with any observational skills would see right through – but a strength that had surprised him, given her history. She hadn’t been completely cowed by Conroy, he thought a little triumphantly. There was a fire in her eyes, an eagerness to succeed, but a wariness. She couldn’t hide her fear, no matter how imperiously she looked at him, how high she held her chin.
Or, the one where Lord Melbourne becomes Private Secretary to a twenty-two-year-old Queen Victoria sometime in 2017.
