Summary
After her designation as an omega is revealed, the only thing that can save Violet from a fate some consider worse than death is a dragon bond. But the riders quadrant has its own dangers, not the least of them Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless Alpha Navarre has seen in decades. Thankfully, she's skilled at keeping her emotions under controll and the strong suppressants she takes should do the rest in concealing her true nature.
After all, nobody but her True Mate could sniff her out as long as she is careful--and how likely is it to ever meet that person, let alone on the confined grounds of Basgiath?Bookmarked by Bridget1199

Summary
At 17, Violet Sorrengail spent a night in the 2022 Olympic Village with the son of her Mother’s greatest enemy. 20-year-old Xaden Riorson was the gold-medal snowboarder who fell for her instantly, but she vanished before he could even get her real name.
Two years later, Violet is a sports journalist hiding from her mother’s shadow with a daughter who has Xaden’s signature onyx eyes. When Brennen, Xaden’s team medic, recognises his niece, the secret detonates. Xaden finally finds the girl he’s been pining for, reeling as he realises why she ran—and that he’s not nearly as alone as he always felt.
Will they put their past and their demons aside and fall back in love like the universe wants them to? Or will this secret tear them both apart?
And will their daughter be the tether that finally pulls them back together?Bookmarked by Bridget1199

Summary
Xaden Riorson is hockey’s most dangerous weapon. Trapped on a losing team with a ruthless owner (Rex Tauri) and a tyrant of a coach (Augustus Melgren) who control every move he and his teammates make, Xaden is counting down the days until he can break free.
Violet Sorrengail has just claimed everything she’s ever worked for. She's the newest principal dancer at Navarre Ballet Theater, she was cast in her dream role, and just landed a career-defining brand deal that could launch her into another stratosphere entirely.
There’s just one catch.
Her campaign partner is Xaden Riorson - the broody, arrogant athlete who clearly doesn’t want to be there… or anywhere near her.
But when an out of context photo goes viral, a fake relationship becomes the perfect power play. It should be simple: a few staged photos, a couple of public appearances, a strictly professional and mutually beneficial arrangement. But nothing is ever as simple as it seems.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail has been Professor of Magical Histories for over half a decade at the Basgiath Academy for the Arcane Arts. She knows the value of her field of study; the problem is proving that value to her superiors. So when a hotshot shadowmancy professor joins the faculty, Violet is understandably upset when he gets funding that was allocated to her.
What’s the big deal with shadowmancy anyway?
Luckily for her, Professor Xaden Riorson is happy to indulge her curiosity.
*****He leaned in, almost imperceptibly, and murmured, “Unfortunately, Professor Sorrengail, the benefits I’d like to show you have no place in a library.”

Summary
Basgiath is known for two things: snow and skating.
Sol Dawnstar and Violet Sorrengail have been on the ice since they were kids, winning every local title their small town could offer. But after watching Olympic gold medalist Xaden Riorson claim victory for Navarre, “good enough” stops being enough.
When Xaden moves to Basgiath and takes over their home rink, Sol and Violet seize their chance—unaware that Xaden’s hockey-playing brother, Liam Mairi, is about to complicate everything.
Between Olympic dreams, fake dating schemes, sibling rivalry, and the dangerous pull of attraction, Sol will have to decide what he’s really skating for—gold… or the boy who keeps knocking him off balance. Meanwhile, Violet is skating far too close to the line between ambition and desire—because falling for her coach was never part of the program.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail, number one student in her class at Harvard Law, has a secret: She has a penpal. And she has absolutely no idea who he is. He's a bit of an ass, but after years of anonymously writing to one another, he knows her better than almost anyone.
But after Violet graduates, the letters stop, only to suddenly start again when she moves back to Boston two years later for a new job — a new job that comes with a new coworker who manages to infuriate and attract in equal measure.

Summary
It should be illegal to look that good.
And the worst part? Xaden’s irrevocably, completely, without a doubt, off-limits. Although, I’d very much like him to be on-limits.
And on me.He also happens to be the guy I’ve been hopelessly in love with for the last 7 years. Unrequited of course, because a guy like Xaden would never be interested in his best friend’s kid sister.

Summary
Violet Daxton never expected a lot of what life handed to her. She never expected to lose her dad in a tragic car accident. She never expected her absent mother to take over guardianship. She never expected to transfer to a fancy boarding school, away from all of her friends her senior year of high school. And she never expected that she would be at the center of a secret school society and a murder plot.
She is, though, and now she has to deal with it, and if that means getting involved with the mysterious, handsome history professor Xaden Riorson in order to solve this mystery, then so be it.
But Violet's relationship with Xaden crosses more lines everyday they're together, and the closer they draw together, the worse their circumstances- and chance of survival- become.

All the Things We Didn’t Disclose by ravenpuffprincess

Summary
Violet Sorrengail has a perfect life as a lawyer: a calm 9–5, a boutique firm she loves, and absolutely zero interest in Big Law chaos.
Unfortunately, Big Law is very interested in her.
Temporarily seconded to Basgiath LLP to help save a massive M&A deal, Violet finds herself thrown into late nights, adrenaline-junkie lawyers, and a data room full of secrets. Worse, she’s stuck working with Xaden Riorson, an infuriatingly competent M&A associate who thinks closing the deal matters more than asking how it should be closed.
Somewhere between midnight diligence calls, shared takeout, and a deal that refuses to behave, Violet realizes two things:
1. Big Law is nothing like her 9–5.
2. Neither is Xaden.
All set in the least romantic setting to fall in love: the M&A data room.

Summary
Violet’s life is quiet, safe, and painfully unseen. With a soft voice and neutral opinions, she conforms to a world of beige. Struggling with her own feelings, she fights to carry the Sorrengail name in her own way. Raised in a world that sought to protect rather than prepare her, Violet was never hardened by cruelty or sharpened by survival. But when her path takes a drastic turn, she is thrust into a future that will test not only her strength, but her sense of self.
Xaden was seventeen when Tyrrendor claimed its independence. Raised by his father in a world where war was always looming, he was shaped to lead and trained to fight. Determined to become the next leader, he carries the Riorson name with pride and honor. Where Violet was sheltered, Xaden was hardened—not by exile or loss, but by responsibility placed too heavily on young shoulders. He learned that love is a liability, control is survival, and hesitation costs lives. But when faith disrupts the life he’s built, the greatest threat to his control may not be war.
Two lives shaped by opposite forces. One forged by war. One sheltered from it. And yet—both must learn that who they were raised to be may not be who they are meant to become.
