Summary
Francesca has spent her life walking a perfectly straight line. As her university's youngest literature professor, she hides behind academic theory. But when a rare impulse leads to a breathless, anonymous one-night stand, her structured world begins to crack.
She assumes her secret is safe—until she walks into her 9:00 AM seminar on the first day of term and finds that the very woman from the night before is her student.
Michaela is everything Francesca is not: unfiltered, unapologetic, and dangerous to Francesca's carefully guarded boundaries.
From the moment she comes to terms with her professor on the podium, the lecture hall becomes a battleground of double meanings, stolen glances, and agonizing proximity. Hidden beneath their sharp academic debates lies a consuming passion.
Caught between strict discipline and an "unlawful longing," Francesca must decide whether to protect her hard-earned career or give in to a love that might finally teach her how to truly live.
Or: Francesca can survive falling for her student. Telling the Bridgertons she's fallen for a woman? That's a different story.

Summary
Medieval Knight AU (ASOIAF inspired)
Princess Michaela Stirling is known as the Glory of the Realm. Not only does she possess a level of wit that many relish in, but she is also an outgoing and free-spirited woman who enjoys things such as archery, painting, and walking through Scottshire to play with the children of the city.
Lady Francesca Bridgerton is one of eight children born with the Bridgerton name. Not much is known about Lady Francesca other than her love for music and horseback riding. She's a hidden beauty, a mystery waiting to be discovered.
On her 22nd name day, Princess Michaela Stirling sat and watched as man after man fell from their horses. She hadn't bothered to pay much attention until she heard two names: Prince John Stirling, Lord of the Kilmartin Isles, and Ser Bridgerton of the Aubrey Lands.

Summary
"Mama, I... I wished to ask you something of a rather delicate nature. It is hypothetical, of course, but I find myself curious."
Francesca had rehearsed the question in her mind a dozen times, yet it still felt clumsy when she spoke it aloud.
"What would it signify, do you think, if a woman were to have... dreams of an intimate nature about another woman? A friend, perhaps. Someone she has known for some time and regards with great affection. Would that indicate anything particular, or is it merely the mind playing tricks in the quiet hours?"
Violet set her embroidery aside, her gaze sharpening with immediate interest. She studied Francesca for a moment before speaking, her tone gentle but direct. "I confess I am not entirely surprised by the question. Tell me, my dear, does this concern Michaela?"
Or:
Michaela returns to Kilmartin after two years away, and Francesca becomes entirely, inconveniently, and helplessly obsessed with her.
