    Summary

    This Prologue sets the stage by retracing the broad emotional trajectory the 2015 BBC adaptation showed, a path often sharply divergent from Winston Graham’s novels. It follows the years shaped by Ross Poldark’s fixation on Elizabeth Chynoweth, the strain this placed on his marriage, and the choices that ultimately drove Demelza to leave Nampara.

    At the same time, this AU restructures the 1790–1795 arc to serve the story that follows. Several threads shift earlier or unfold differently: Demelza’s friendship with Caroline Penvenen, her first meaningful encounters with Hugh Armitage, and the quiet strengthening of her independence. Certain series plotlines are condensed, reordered, or set aside entirely to keep the focus on Demelza’s emotional journey and the consequences of Ross’s choices.

    Spanning 1790–1795 (unpublished Chapters 1–25), the Prologue provides the revised history through which this AU emerges. Only then does the true narrative begin. From Chapter 26 — The Gulf Between Us onward, this story follows the aftermath the adaptation never confronted: a marriage bent past breaking, a woman reclaiming her dignity, and the reckoning that unfolds when Ross finally seeks her out.

    Summary

    Midwife and nurse Claire Beauchamp is this season's new hire at Lallybroch Glen Family Resort And Spa – a luxury Highland birthing retreat and nursing home. It is high-end, state of the art, exclusive, gorgeous, and Claire hates it on sight. She hates just about everything at the moment, but still. . .

    She has to stay, she's already signed a three year contract. She's in for the long haul now.

    When among her first patients are an inexplicably surly woman named Geneva Dunsany, and the impossibly handsome companion she introduces as - "My husband, Alex MacKenzie" - and yet insists he must not share her room, Claire is mystified, intrigued, confused, and deeply, dangerously attracted.

    She hates the feeling, the moment it creeps into her heart. She can't fall in love. Not again. Not like this. Not with him. Not only is it wrong, it's much, much too soon. . .

    And already too late.

    Call The Midwife crossover. Modern AU.

    Summary

    Grieving the loss of her beloved Uncle Lamb, 28-year-old Claire Beauchamp takes a break from medical school and finds solace working at a small café in Edinburgh. There, she meets a tall, redheaded Scot who offers an unexpected distraction and a glimmer of hope for her uncertain future. But when a sudden tragedy leaves him in a coma, Claire is thrust into the heart of the close-knit Fraser family, where tangled truths and buried secrets challenge her sense of right and wrong. Now, caught between a lie and her own heart, she must confront her true feelings and face the consequences of choices that could change everything for the people she’s grown to care about.

    (Note: This fic is based on the 1995 film, While You Were Sleeping, starring Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman, with several departures from the movie plot.)
