    Summary

    When Siuan Sanche takes over as principal at White Tower Prep, she expects the students to be her biggest problem, not tracking down a new chemistry teacher for the science department. But when the board sends Moiraine Damodred her way to fill the position, Siuan finds that she’s catching more than just sparks in the science lab. Good thing she has a firm boundary in place about dating coworkers.

     

    Or: The modern day turning of the Wheel where they all work at a high school.

    Summary

    Unbound for a second, Beatrice lifts her hand back up. There’s no dirt, no excuse, but she palms Ava’s face again, just to feel it, just for that special close lipped smile that graces Ava’s face again, just for her to sigh.

    She removes it quickly—not quickly enough, too quickly—catching Ava’s eyes when they open again.

    “Now,” Beatrice says, voice soft and serious. “Let’s try again.”

    Ava nods, the halo glows, her feet leave the ground, and she doubles her time.

    Beatrice realizes that her touch helps Ava with her training, and, well, things escalate.

    Summary

    “You’re too pretty to be a nun,” she—the patient, the charming patient, Ava Silva, 19, no family, paralyzed from the neck down—tells Beatrice when she walks into the room.

    Beatrice doesn't know what to say to that. She doesn’t spend much time looking at herself except to smooth out her hair, to make sure there are no stray pieces of lint on her shirt. She definitely hasn’t thought about the word pretty in relation to herself.

    “I’m not,” she tells Ava directly.

    “Not pretty or not a nun?"

    Summary

    “It’s only the first year,” Rhaenyra used to say, broken down at the breakfast table by the window in their London flat with her head in her hands. “It’ll get better, after this. We just need to right our ship.”

    It was loving in the beginning.
