    Summary

    "Do you know what your problem is?" Eloise asks.

    "Several paid professionals have tried to answer that question."

    "You're in love with Michaela."

    Francesca nearly drops her wine glass.

    "That's absurd."

    "You learned Portuguese when she had to spend a month in Sao Paulo."

    "I learned Portuguese for practical reasons."

    "She's the practical reason."

    Francesca Bridgerton is definitely not in love with her best friend. Unfortunately, the evidence would like a word.

    (or the very slow friends-to-lovers modern AU in which everyone has already figured it out except the two women sharing lingering eye contact, emotional dependency, and an alarming commitment to calling it friendship)

    Summary

    Part 2 of The Shape of Wanting series. Sequel to Before We Were Brave.

    Modern AU Franchaela, with characterisation kept close to canon. All of the Bridgertons will make an appearance.

    Francesca Bridgerton thought Spain was over. She thought Michaela Stirling belonged to the holiday: to sunlit streets, late-night bars, warm skin, dangerous smiles, and the kind of wanting Francesca had never quite known what to do with before.

    Then her dog gets hurt, and the vet who walks through the clinic door is Michaela.

    They find each other again in London, but the reunion is far from simple. Francesca has questions she never asked. Michaela has grief she never explained. Between them sit missed messages, wrong assumptions, and all the things they were not brave enough to say before goodbye.

    Spain was supposed to be temporary.

    This was not.

    Summary

    It begins, as most things do, rather innocuously. With a phone call.

    A phone call that shocks Francesca from her deep sleep, blinking confused and discombobulated in the dark.

    She registers her phone ringing on her nightstand with a jolt, and crawls out of the warm nest of blankets, flinging an arm over and answering without even glancing at the caller ID. Her voice is hoarse, brimming over with sleep as she clears her throat and mutters, “Hello?”

    “Frannie,” Michaela breathes on the other end.

    All of a sudden Francesca’s wide awake.

     

    Or: Michaela’s apartment floods. She moves in with Francesca until it gets fixed. And that should’ve been fine, right? But Francesca’s used to her simple, quiet routine -– bookstore job, piano on the weekends -– and, well, there’s nothing less routine, less controllable, than Michaela. Except maybe the feelings Michaela stirs up within her.
