Summary
Viscount Gwaine de Hautdesert, future Earl of Orkney, has made a reputation for himself in London as a drinker, a reveler, and...well, a rake. But he does have some principles. First and foremost, he doesn’t lead astray wide-eyed debutantes.
Lady Merlin Emrys is not a debutante. She hadn’t even known she was nobility until one year and six weeks ago. That was when a lawyer appeared at her and her mother’s doorstep and informed Merlin that: 1) Her father and mother had been legally married, 2) her father was dead, and 3) Merlin was now the Baroness Dynevor.
Merlin is not a debutante, but she is pretending that she wants to find a husband. She's looking for someone...she just isn’t sure who. The dragon hadn’t given her a lot of details. Bloody dragons.
In which Merlin tries to find the Once and Future King without knowing who it is and Gwaine tries not to seduce the girl he likes but ends up getting seduced instead.

Summary
Yuletide in Camelot was a complicated thing.
Merlin had grown up with simple winter traditions: small gifts left on windowsills, bread shared between neighbours, his mother humming old songs while the snow piled against the door. Ealdor’s winter had been cold, yes, but it had been kind — a quiet, honest cold that wrapped around you and sat beside you at the fire.
Camelot’s Yuletide, by contrast, was a spectacle sharpened to a shine. Crimson and gold banners layered every wall and archway, richer and heavier than usual. Courtiers drifted through the halls in velvet and fur, jewels bright at throats and wrists, their laughter ringing too loud, as if joy were something that had to be proven by volume alone.
Below, the lower town seethed with it all — stalls packed into every sheltered corner, merchants shouting over one another, the air thick with spice and smoke and roasting chestnuts. It was dazzling, overwhelming, impossible to escape.
And above it all, the castle tradition: the Gift of the Longest Night.

Summary
It's hard being the unlovable child. Swallowing bitter bile back with every burning string of hope that is pulled from within. Alas, no one said being the eldest child is easy. It certainly never is for Petunia.

In another world... but not this one. Something ancient runs through the Evans' veins, and in this world it awakens in Petunia.
Following Petunia as she enters into the world of witchcraft and wizardry, trying to make a home in this new and exciting world as insurrection rises at its horizon.
An ancient and powerful form of magic threatens the covert workings of the Dark Lord and his Knights of Walpurgis, and when confronted with opportunities in this new world Petunia will have to decide on how to thrive. She won't settle for 'enough'.
