An unconventional Monday
Mar. 31st, 2025 10:23 am
First, thanks everyone for keeping my family and I in your thoughts/prayers. It helps a lot.
In a weird mood, so let's do this! And if anyone actually wants to write or do anything with these, go ahead.
(Using Doctor Who (1963, 2005), Once Upon a Time, Jane Austen)
31)CHASING SECRETS by KELSEY ROBERTS
Silhouette Intrigue
Unlawfully wedded?
Katarina would do whatever it took to prove her innocence - and the Sixth Doctor was the key to clearing her name. His testimony had sent her to jail for a crime she didn’t commit and she could never forget what he had cost her. Katarina had escaped to find justice...but her salvation meant marrying a man she couldn’t trust.
Newly wedded to an escaped con and on the run from the law, Six didn’t think things could get much worse-but he was wrong. When their quest to clear Katarina’s name turned deadly, their need to believe in each other was suddenly a matter of life or death. ( this... is definitely not one I expected. Especially given what happens to Katarina)
279) The Engagement Bargain by Sherri Shackelford
Make-believe betrothal
Rock-solid and reliable, confirmed spinster Amy Pond thought nothing could rattle her — until she discovers she needs to pose as the Sixth Doctor's intended bride. After saving his life, her honorable code bid Amy watch over the innocent charmer. And a pretend engagement is the only way to protect him from further harm.
Raised by a single mother and suffragist, Six doesn't think much of marriage — and he certainly doesn't plan to try it himself. But playing Amy's blushing groom-to-be makes him rethink his independent ways, because their make-believe romance is becoming far too real… ( I JUST watched an episode with Amy last night! :O I do sorta want to see Amy interact with classic Doctors now)
308) My Lady's Prisoner by Ann Elizabeth Cree
A Dangerous Abduction...
Since her husband's murder three years ago, Lady Lucie Miller had done her utmost to uncover the culprit, though with little success. But then Graham O'Brien, Viscount Thayne, appeared — sinfully handsome and in possession of her husband's ring!
Action needed to be taken quickly. The viscount held the key to her husband's death, but how could the daring countess persuade him to hand over the ring and reveal all he knew? There was no alternative — she would have to take him captive! But then the tables were turned and Lucie found herself in danger of being enslaved by desire for her prisoner.... (Gotta say, I lost it at "Lady Lucie". And I think @thisbluespirit has written her and Graham once?)
491) No Conventional Miss by Eleanor Webster
Rumplestiltskin is an unlikely debutant. He favours fact over fashion, cares not for 'proper' conversation and is haunted by ghostly visions which could land him in the madhouse! Marriage is definitely the last thing on Rumplestiltskin's mind...
But when he's caught in a compromising position with Viscountess Cora suddenly he finds himself betrothed! And, worse, her powerful presence only increases his visions. By shedding light on the Viscountess's past, can Rumplestiltskin gain her trust and win her round his more ... unconventional traits? (Snort. "Unconventional" is a word for it, sure! )
489) Under Her Clothes by Louisa Edwards
When Ruby dresses like a man to prove she can succeed in the male-dominated world of professional cooking, she never expects to fall for the handsome chef who will decide her fate. They agree that nothing that happens after hours will affect Ruby's chances in the competition and begin a secret affair.
It’s been years since Victor Frankenstein felt a sexual attraction toward a man. He thought he’d put that stage of his life behind him when he focused everything on his career.
But something about Ruby makes him want to break all his own rules… (Scary how much sense this one makes)
73) Society Page Seduction – Maureen Child
Millionaire the Twelfth Doctor's bride to be left him standing at the altar and wedding planner River Song was dumbfounded when she was asked to fill in. Be Twelve’s bride. For a year. What better way to escape her situation than by marrying a gorgeous, powerful stranger?
640) The Highway Man by Nadine Crenshaw
[George Knightley / Augusta Hawkins]
When a trumped up murder charge forced handsome George Knightley to flee his home, he was found and sheltered by the highwaywoman - a woman as dark and dangerous as the secrets that haunted her. As their hiding place became a place of shared dreams — and soaring desires — George knew he'd found the love he'd been yearning for! (Feel like I might need more context, is this or isn't this IC for either of them?)
370) Cougar's Conquest - Linda O. Johnston
Eleanor Tilney hasn't seen the First Doctor in over a year, not since their relationship had ended so abruptly.
Not since the brilliant, sexy man she fell for learned her secret and she'd been forced to flee. Now One is back with an offer to join a covert military unit of shapeshifters, and the spark of their attraction is instantly reignited.
Neither can resist sharing one last night of passion, but as a cougar shifter, Eleanor had been taught only to trust her own kind. Can she truly trust One with her secret...and with her heart?
In a weird mood, so let's do this! And if anyone actually wants to write or do anything with these, go ahead.
