Summary
In less than a week, Gideon would be surrounded at any moment by goggling children and fawning women, and their interactions would consist of Gideon winking at Harrow from over the heads of her entourage as she took endless selfies. It was excruciating to watch, but at the moment, felt preferable to watching Gideon awkwardly scratch her head and ask “How’s stall set-up going?” as if it would ever be possible for the two of them to have a normal conversation.

It’s Harrow’s last year selling bone jewelry at the Dominicus Renaissance Faire before she finishes her PhD. Which means one last summer putting up with Sir Gideon, the obnoxious knight that’s been a thorn in Harrow’s side for the past three years. Except, Harrow made out with her at last year’s end of season party, and things have only gotten more complicated since then.

Summary
Gideon is Harrow’s first everything: first rival, first friend, first fight, and first time. None of their friends are aware of their past, though, as their first time together is an awkward, embarrassing, and, quite honestly, painful memory, if Gideon had to be honest.
But during a Saturday night, with the gang hanging out together and everyone a bit drunk on beer and wine, Gideon ends up talking about that one night as 'her-worst-lay-ever.'
It’s pretty surprising when Harrow has a completely different way of looking at it.
Or, the Bad Lay AU

Summary
“So you want to shake off Ianthe and I want to make Corona see me as a legit romantic prospect. I have the perfect plan,” Gideon said, her eyes glowing in the way that told Harrow she was much drunker than she’d been letting on.
“That’s not a comforting statement coming from you,” Harrow replied, knowing she was definitely not drunk enough for whatever Gideon was about to say.
“We should pretend to date each other."
“No,” Harrow said. “Absolutely not.”

Harrow agrees to fake-date Gideon and it goes completely smoothly and according to plan.Just kidding, it's an absolute disaster of pining and repressed feelings.

Summary
All Gideon wanted was to get outside and ride her motorcycle. No part of that plan had included eight weeks in Canaan Medical Center with a broken Pelvis and the meanest little doctor this side of the eastern seabord.

Summary
“You’re too pretty to be a nun,” she—the patient, the charming patient, Ava Silva, 19, no family, paralyzed from the neck down—tells Beatrice when she walks into the room.
Beatrice doesn't know what to say to that. She doesn’t spend much time looking at herself except to smooth out her hair, to make sure there are no stray pieces of lint on her shirt. She definitely hasn’t thought about the word pretty in relation to herself.
“I’m not,” she tells Ava directly.
“Not pretty or not a nun?"
