Summary
Nesta had been angry for a very long time. She wasn’t even sure when the anger began, it felt as if it were just always a part of her. It kept her safe, it protected her from the criticism from her mother and dance coach, Miss Amarantha. Their harsh words about her body as she matured and grew, the insults about her lack of effort and will whenever she mis-stepped, how nothing she ever did seemed to be enough. Even after her mother passed, Nesta allowed her dance coach to continue her vicious training regime, remaining silent as the hurled insults and threats increased tenfold.
Another seven years have passed, Nesta was now in her second year of the Velaris University’s Juris Doctor program. With both parents now gone, Nesta knows she should be a good eldest sister and try to keep the family together. She’s already agreed to a weekly dinner with them, often inviting friends too. But now Feyre and her boyfriend are getting serious and she’s trying to integrate her sisters with Rhysand’s brothers. One of those brothers has a knack for getting on Nesta’s nerves, ruining any hopes she had of trying to have as little stress and piss-poor habits as possible in her second year of law school.

Who’s That Girl? It’s Nes by ChelseaMorningGirl

Summary
Nesta Archeron has always prided herself on being the kind of woman who has her life together. She wears power suits to her editing job at Velaris Publishing, her hair is always immaculately styled, her apartment has been featured in a “Young Professionals Living in Style” blog post, and she’s been in a relationship with Tomas Mandray—successful lawyer, conventionally attractive, wholly appropriate—for three years.
Past tense on all of that.
Because yesterday, she’d come home early from a work trip to surprise Tomas, only to find him very enthusiastically not surprised, and very enthusiastically occupied with his paralegal, Claire, in their California King bed with the Egyptian cotton sheets Nesta had picked out.
The bed that Tomas had paid for, in the apartment that Tomas’s name was on the lease for, because Nesta had moved in with him eight months ago, instead of looking for a new place together.
What a joke.
—————
A New Girl AU where Nesta is Jess, Cassian is Nick, and no one is emotionally equipped to handle what's happening. That’s it. That’s the summary.

Summary
She’s my mate. He couldn’t form another thought in his head. It echoed again and again, making him think he might lose his damn mind. Who is she?
Rhys went silent, likely seeking the answer from somebody else. Nesta Archeron.
That name would haunt his dreams.
She was beautiful. Devastatingly so. She was from this awful city. She looked like she could rip him to shreds–
Cassian. She’s married.
***
Or, an AU where the Archeron sisters are born in the Hewn City
