Summary
October, 1847.
The first woman Captain James Fitzjames has seen in years is dragged before him in the aftermath of a fatal accident.
He follows classic Royal Navy protocol: because she is Inuit, he does not ask for her account. And he cannot forget the way she looks at him afterward.
When the woman reveals she cannot return to her people, James makes a rash decision that binds them both: taking her aboard Erebus in secret. Trapped in the ice, with both his mission and his will slowly unraveling, he finds himself drawn into a strange reckoning with a woman who knows the land, the truth of his quest, and the cost of survival far better than he ever will.
(Or: a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers character study in which JFJ discovers that he may not be the man he thinks he is...he may, in fact, be a far better one.)

Summary
It’s the eve of her wedding, and Elizabeth can’t stop looking at a dead leaf…
What if Victor's aim had gone astray by a few inches? What if the Elizabeth who lay in the Creature's arms as he carried her out of the mansion was not dying but only injured?
Far from polite Victorian society, alone with the Creature who refuses to let her die, Elizabeth must grapple with a forbidden desire that somehow feels like both sin and salvation.
And something inside her, long kept in darkness, finally starts to bloom.
(Or: Elizabeth meets the Creature again, and what we all want happens.)

Bookmarker's Notes
Riveting and although I never saw Master + Commander I couldn't help but fall in love with these characters. Romantic and suspenseful and with one of the best battle scenes I've ever read.

Summary
The Franklin expedition was meant to be a triumph. Yet James Fitzjames has returned to England and can scarcely believe he survived the nightmare.
During the expedition, however, he found a companion: Esther. She spent years hidden beneath another name. Now, she must learn to live in the open.
The path to healing is fraught with obstacles, and the ice is never far behind.
Or: a story between past and present, where some members of the expedition make it home, and what follows.

Summary
“Could I have Austria.”
James looked at him, a touch surprised.
“Not unless you have an army, or perhaps haven’t told me something rather crucial about your parentage.”“What?” He looked at James like he had lost his mind. Then, he found himself laughing again. “No, I mean the piece.”
Or James attempts to get Francis out of his own miserable head with the help of an outdated puzzle map
