Summary
Sophia Laforteza runs Verdenia with the precision of a ticking clock. She has a plan for everything—except a surprise wife. When a forgotten twenty-year-old treaty resurfaces, Sophia is legally bound to marry Manon Bannerman, the chaotic, unbothered "Spare" of the rival coast. While Sophia treats the engagement like a cold war, Manon treats it like a vacation. But as the sunny Spare chips away at the icy Heir’s defenses, Sophia discovers that the only thing more terrifying than ruling a kingdom alone is falling for the one woman who makes her want to stop.

Summary
"Everyone deserves someone who can speak their language." - Gitling (Hyphen), 2023
No one ever told Sophia how quickly you could stop dreaming in your first language.
Manon would like to believe (although Dani and others would disagree) that she can speak four, maybe even five languages. Six if counting the Korean lessons Sophia made them all take for Yoonchae. Another one won’t hurt.

Summary
“Sophia, you’re a superhero. You could call yourself anything. I mean, none of these girls have helmets or like, real armor. Be a fucking Power Ranger, at least!”
“Manon,” says Sophia, and when she opens her hand there is a magic wand with a glowing star on the top lying in her palm.
Manon blinks at it. “Okay,” she says. “So you’re a magical girl.”

Summary
“Look,” Sophia says, pointing up at the sky. “You can’t even see the stars because of the snow.”
“That doesn't make sense.”
“It doesn’t have to make sense. It’s pretty.” Sophia turns her head to look at Manon, and there’s snow in her hair and on her eyelashes; Manon wants to lick it off — she’s, like, drunk though, and it’s the alcohol speaking, and if she says it enough times, she can convince herself it’s true, right? “You’re pretty.”
Manon's breath catches. “You’re drunk.”
“I’m drunk and you’re pretty. Both things can be true,” she declares, before sitting up and brushing snow off herself. “Okay, now we should actually go home before we freeze to death for real.”
Or: Love blooms, in the snow, and it is just right.
Or (unrelated): 35 people will break up today because a girl will post Sophia & then their partner is going to say, “Hey, how can you post Sophia Laforteza and not me?” Well, babe...
