Summary
In a kingdom teetering on the edge of revolution, Nick Nelson has spent his life fighting for the Republican cause. His mission is clear: infiltrate the Royal Guard, earn their trust, and, when the time is right, kidnap Prince Charlie—the key to dismantling the monarchy once and for all. It should be simple. But the moment Nick lays eyes on the sharp-tongued, golden-hearted prince, everything begins to unravel. Because Charlie Spring is nothing like he expected. And as the lines between enemy and beloved blur, Nick is left questioning everything he once believed. Is he truly willing to betray the boy who has stolen his heart?

Summary
“God, he looks fucking incredible. Charlie usually kept his hair short, but now it’s cropped even shorter on the sides, with longer curls at the top. He’s wearing a loose vest that proudly shows off his binder and there’s a definite path of hair trailing down into the waistband of his jeans that wasn’t always there. His top rides up as his arms are lifted in a V-shape, stretching out a huge flag behind him. Blue and Pink and White. It’s beautiful. He’s so fucking beautiful.
His caption is a simple message: charlie (he/him)
Well, there’s not a single doubt in my mind now. I’m definitely bisexual.”
“Charlie Spring is a boy.
He’s always been a boy.
He was my first boyfriend.”
OR: Trans Charlie AU where Nick and Charlie date in school before Charlie’s transition. Charlie breaks up with Nick. Eleven months later, Nick sees Charlie’s coming out post on Insta and reaches out.

Summary
Charlie surprises Nick at one of his rugby matches during his first semester at Leeds
———
When the game finally ends (with a Leeds victory!), I select one of the best photos I took of him today, then with shaking hands, I type out two sentences.
You look fit as fuck in that jersey. Wanna make out?
I hit send, then wait. I’m literally trembling from head to toe, beaming like an idiot.
I watch him and his teammates happily chatting and patting each other on the back. They make their way over to the sideline where they slowly start grabbing their phones and water bottles.
I watch Nick like a hawk, almost vibrating out of my skin at this point. I think I might actually die of anticipation.
He grabs his phone and water bottle, taking a long swig and then making some comment to the guy on his left, who laughs and claps him on the back. He smiles, then grabs his phone and starts walking toward the changing rooms, in the opposite direction from where I’m sitting. SERIOUSLY, Nick?! Without even looking at it?! I start to worry that he’s truly not even going to check it when I see him stop dead in his tracks.

Summary
Nick Nelson is twenty-six and a rising semi-professional rugby player in London, admired for both his skill and his looks. But when a devastating injury pulls him off the field and into a hospital bed for months of recovery, Nick is forced to confront a world that suddenly feels very small and frighteningly quiet.
Assigned as his primary nurse, Charlie Spring is calm, kind, and quietly observant. A young man more comfortable in hospital corridors than stadium crowds. Determined to stay professional, Charlie focuses on helping Nick heal, even as small moments of laughter, vulnerability, and shared silence begin to blur the lines between patient and caregiver.
As Nick struggles with pressure from his distant father, the loss of his identity as an athlete, and the unexpected pull toward someone he was never supposed to fall for, Charlie must balance duty with feelings he isn’t sure he’s allowed to have.
A slow-burn romance about healing, patience, and finding connection in the most unexpected place.

Summary
Hermione was never meant to rewrite the rules. Top of her class. Always prepared. Always predictable. But after one mistake and a humiliating betrayal, her certainty of who she is begins to fracture. And in the unraveling, she starts asking questions no one expects.
Draco notices. He’s not supposed to. Not her, not like this. But the more she slips beyond the version everyone knows, the more she disrupts the carefully constructed lines he’s lived behind.
The year begins like any other. But the ground is shifting. The rules are changing. And the game everyone thought they were playing suddenly doesn’t look the same.
Because this isn’t a story about enemies. Or even allies.
It’s about what happens when two people are faced with a choice: keep playing the roles they’ve always known, or risk everything for something neither of them saw coming.
TLDR:
Hermione wants revenge, picks up a broom, and becomes the hottest problem Draco’s ever had.Tension builds. Clothes come off. Draco can’t look away.
Unfortunately for him, neither can anyone else.
Chaos, thirst, and jersey-related disasters inevitably ensue.

Summary
My stomach growled eventually. I looked around to find a bush of berries. I picked a few and then sat down to eat them. As I looked at them, I remembered the berries that had saved Peeta and I. I remembered the way we had fully committed to death. We'd spit them out in time. Foxface hadn't. My stomach turned. I threw the berries away. I didn't want them anymore. I shoved the images of the dead tributes out of my head.
-----
After the first Games, Katniss has some difficult trauma-induced mental health issues that she needs to work through. What would happen if she would've been a little more open and honest with Peeta? And herself, about if there was something real there?My take on a more realistic Catching Fire. Starts just after the first Games. Continues through the end of Mockingjay. Some changes to plot as well.

Summary
While I was talking, the idea of actually losing Peeta hit me again and I realized how much I don’t want him to die. And it’s not about the sponsors. And it’s not about what will happen back home. And it’s not just that I don’t want to be alone. It’s him. I do not want to lose the boy with the bread. (The Hunger Games, Book 1, Chapter 22)
What if Katniss and Peeta picked up this conversation and got together before Catching Fire? Set four weeks after their win of the 74th Hunger Games.

Summary
“What’s got you bothered, love?” Nick asks, running a hand down Charlie’s arm.
Charlie tries to talk again, taking a few breaths in. He wants to talk to Nick like he normally does, he wants to tell Nick what happened. He tries to speak, but the wall holding his words inside of him doesn’t crack, he still can’t seem to say a single word out loud. He can’t even form them in his head now he finds. It makes him want to rip out his hair and scream until all these words, everything he is feeling, spill out completely. He just wants to talk to his boyfriend for fuck’s sake, why does this have to be so difficult? He stutters, trying to say a syllable and fails, a frustrated sob breaking out of him as tears prick his eyes.
or
Charlie goes nonverbal after a stressful family dinner, rushes to his safe place, the Nelsons', and Nick is there for him.

Both, Wylan and Jesper, are scarred from their past, but they want to open up. So, a first date at the Aquarium might just be the right thing, right?Bookmarked by RubyReads1
