Summary
Captain William Ransom, Ninth Earl of Ellesmere, is assigned a covert mission by his commanding officer to uncover a rebel spy in the tiny parish of Rosewood, Philadelphia. Posing as William Dunsany, a young immigrant from England, he is taken in by John Rose and his beautiful half-Iroquois daughter, Anna. Meanwhile, he struggles to reconcile himself to the fact that he is not the biological son of the eighth Earl, but is actually a bastard born of an encounter between his mother, Geneva Dunsany, and Jamie Fraser, a known rebel and traitor to the Crown. Surrounded by rebel sympathisers, William must play his cards carefully if he is to uncover the spy... and he must also guard his twice-broken heart if he is to keep himself from falling in love with the enchanting, spirited Anna...
WARNING: There may be a few book spoilers in later chapters.

Summary
Rhaena Targaryen, tired of playing nursemaid to her two younger half-brothers, makes a bold decision-to claim Sheepstealer, the wild dragon that has made a home on the hillside of the Eyrie. Determined to be a dragonrider like her sister Baela and join the war, she rushes headlong towards the beast, and towards freedom.
Meanwhile, Rhaenyra has to contend with the new dragonseeds and ensure they learn the ways of the dragonriders. Addam of Hull-a newly minted dragonlord and bastard son of Corlys Velaryon-proves especially loyal, and she decides to award him by knighting him Ser Addam Velaryon.
When Rhaena returns to Dragonstone atop her new steed, Rhaenyra is both worried and impressed-the girl is far too young and inexperienced for battle, and is still untethered after the loss of her betrothed, Lucerys. Driftmark is still in need of an heir, and when Corlys decides to legitimise Alyn, Addam's brother, and declare him heir to Driftmark, there is nothing to stop Rhaenyra from arranging the betrothal of Rhaena to Addam, now the second son of an old and reputed house, and a suitable match for a princess.

Summary
Five years after the war, Draco Malfoy keeps his life small: a London flat, a forgettable Ministry job, and a policy of avoiding literally everyone. It’s working—he’s stable, if still sarcastic as hell—right up until Hermione Granger shows up to ruin his lunch.
Now a Ministry Investigator, she “requests” his help searching Malfoy Manor for a dangerous artifact… one the last loyal Death Eaters are also hunting. But when a routine inspection turns into something far more tangled—surfacing long-buried truths—they’ll have to confront who they were and who they might become.
----
Or, Draco got therapy and space after the war. He's still an arse but is trying to be a better person when he reconnects with Hermione in an unexpected way.
