    Summary

    Winter, 1871.

    After her husband’s death, Mulan lives alone on a remote homestead built on stolen frontier land, surviving harsh winters, hostile settlers, and the quiet guilt of a country expanding over graves.

    One storm-filled night, she finds a wounded stranger hiding in her barn.

    The man is Shan Yu — an Indigenous war leader hunted by soldiers, feared by settlers, and whispered about like a ghost story along the frontier.
    Mulan should turn him in.
    Instead, she lets him stay.
    As the mountains close around them and violence creeps ever nearer, Mulan is forced to question everything she has survived for — and whether mercy toward a dangerous man will destroy her… or save what remains of her soul.

    Summary

    When the Chinese Empire secures a fragile peace treaty with the Mongols through a future marriage alliance, the bride promised to the Khan’s heir is chosen years before either side ever sees her face.
    The Imperial Court considers that an advantage.
    Because when the time finally comes to deliver the “princess,” the Emperor sacrifices someone far easier to replace instead: Hua Mulan, a palace servant trained to obey, disappear, and keep secrets.
    But Shan Yu is not the ignorant brute the court expected to deceive.
    And Mulan was never as invisible as they believed

    Summary

    The Emperor has decreed that a group of peace-making beauties be sent to marry into the ranks of the Huns, as a gesture of unity and fraternity towards the now defeated tribe, their new allies.

    Hua Mulan goes along as an escort. Shan Yu finds this, and her ever increasing anger at him, endlessly amusing.

    Summary

    “I see,” Harvey says. “What school?”

    “Stanford Law,” Mike replies.

    That gets the guy to perk up minutely, a there-and-gone twitch of his eyebrows. “Law?”

    “Yeah. Don’t tell me—you’re a corporate sellout, aren’t you?”

    Harvey laughs under his breath, which is how Mike knows he’s right.

    Summary

    “Now Robby, I know you can’t wait for him to be back on your shift so you can oogle him whenever, but he still has another week with me. You’ll get him back, I promise.” He replies with a knowing smirk that grows wider when Robby’s face grows flushed and he sputters indignantly.

    “Wh- What do you mean oogle? I don’t oogle. I’m a consummate professional with all my residents and you know that!” Robby bites back, growing more red when Jack barks a laugh and claps him on the shoulder.

    “Brother, please. You and I both know that’s a lie. Hell, Collins still works with you, though god knows why she puts herself through that.”

    “Besides, you’re not exactly subtle with the way you act around Whitaker. I’m surprised no one else has noticed, or if they have they haven’t mentioned it.”

    -------------

    Jack and Robby have been together for years. They both realize they kind of have a thing for their new student doctor, Dennis Whitaker. It's just a matter of time before they realize he feels the exact same way.
