    Summary

    Late 1985, early 1986.

    For Helena Mastroianni, the city of stars holds no cinematic magic.

    At twenty-four, her roots are split between the olive groves of Italy and the sun-drenched coasts of Spain, but her present is confined to an office at Epic Records and a suitcase overflowing with stop-motion mockups and miniature worlds.

    Helena is... strange.

    A mind that only seems to understand fantasy, handmade creatures, and tiny fabricated universes.

    While trying to prove to her family that she will not return home empty-handed, her path collides - quite literally - with the most famous man on the planet.

    Michael Jackson is in the middle of a creative storm. He is searching for something different, something that pushes beyond the limits of what people expect from his "mini movies."

    When he meets Helena, he does not find another obedient fan or the fragile girl the world constantly assumes he wants.

    He finds a woman who is expressive, stubborn, unapologetically herself - wrapped in a dark, distinctly European kind of elegance that fascinates him instantly.
    Michael finds something almost impossible:

    A real friend...or more than friend.

    Summary

    Five years ago, Park Sunghoon was compelled to leave the countryside to take responsibility for lavish estates and obligations he was unprepared for following the death of his parents. He left the countryside certain that nothing there could ever change. When he returns, he is proven wrong in the most dangerous way possible.

    Kim Sunoo (once the quiet, overlooked younger brother of Sunghoon’s closest companion, Jay) has grown into a poised and captivating young man, admired by society and courted by many. Though Sunoo’s family stands beneath Sunghoon in fortune and influence, it is their familiarity, rather than their status, that makes Sunoo forbidden.

    Sunghoon finds himself drawn to Sunoo, yet every glance, every word is shadowed by the unspoken truth: Sunoo is the younger brother of his closest friend. To act on his feelings would be a breach of loyalty and propriety.

    To feel anything at all would be a betrayal of loyalty and decorum alike.

    Yet affection does not ask for anyone’s permission.

    “Mmm…miss Fatherington, wha…what are you doing?”

    She turned to face him again, there was an uneasy softness on her face, resembling the calm before the storm, “I need your help Mr. Bridgerton.”

    Summary

    They started the dance silently. She wondered why he had bothered to ask her to dance at all if he didn’t want to talk. There was so much left to say, but none of it in polite company. And, most importantly, none of what she had to say mattered now. They were both married.

    “I almost forgot to congratulate you-”
    “You do not need to.”
    “But I must-” She insisted.

    “I’d really rather you didn’t.” He said sternly. Colin’s face was unreadable as he couldn’t meet her eyes. Instead she stared at his clenched jaw. She supposed she wouldn’t have wanted his congratulations either after her own wedding, not that he tried to offer any.
    ---
    1814: Colin Bridgerton realizes he is in love. It should be a joyful time, but with competition for Pen's hand and secrets that threaten to ruin them, the pair's far from a happily ever after.

    1816: Penelope Debling is trying to make peace with her new life as a Countess running an estate for an absent husband. She is determined to feel content, but when she has to host Colin Bridgerton, old feelings threaten to unravel her.

    This story will be told in 2 alternating timelines (complete with double ch drops!) until the first timeline catches up to 1816.
