All the Things We Didn’t Disclose by ravenpuffprincess
Fandoms: The Empyrean - Rebecca Yarros

Summary
Violet Sorrengail has a perfect life as a lawyer: a calm 9–5, a boutique firm she loves, and absolutely zero interest in Big Law chaos.
Unfortunately, Big Law is very interested in her.
Temporarily seconded to Basgiath LLP to help save a massive M&A deal, Violet finds herself thrown into late nights, adrenaline-junkie lawyers, and a data room full of secrets. Worse, she’s stuck working with Xaden Riorson, an infuriatingly competent M&A associate who thinks closing the deal matters more than asking how it should be closed.
Somewhere between midnight diligence calls, shared takeout, and a deal that refuses to behave, Violet realizes two things:
1. Big Law is nothing like her 9–5.
2. Neither is Xaden.
All set in the least romantic setting to fall in love: the M&A data room.

Summary
When Violet and Xaden find themselves in a rather compromising situation at 35,000 feet, their impulsive mile high lie lands them in London for a wedding week full of fancy events, suspicious relatives, and a story they have to keep straight. But as the line between real and pretend begins to blur, the consequences of their one little lie grow harder to ignore.
AKA : The fic where Xaden and Violet meet on a plane and get caught joining the mile high club. They impulsively claim they just got engaged in an effort to get out of trouble, locking them into living their lie as they head to London for a wedding in a story that celebrates some of our favorite tropes: Fake Relationships, Only One Bed, Forced Proximity and jealous Xaden's Touch Her and Die vibes.

Summary
Violet is happy to helm story time for the early-learners group occasionally—it is her bookstore after all—but she has no interest in catering it for the holidays. None. Nada. And for the last time, there will be no tinsel in this building, Ridoc!
Enter Xaden Riorson: handsome tattoo artist and single dad. He's just trying his best to make ends meet, get his daughter to that reading-session-thing she likes so much, and make sure she has the best Christmas now that she's old enough to remember it.
Oh, and convince the gorgeous bookstore owner that the holidays aren't so bad after all if they celebrate them together. That too.

Summary
Starting as strangers, over the course of a few years, Violet and Xaden meet at different weddings and their obvious attraction doesn't seem to take 'no' for an answer.
Four weddings, four seasons, more plot than I had originally intended. Come for the smut, stay for the possibility of a happy ending.

When an unexpected murder victim washes up in DC, the ensuing investigation brings them closer together despite her every effort to stay away, and she's forced to decide if the careful distance she keeps around her heart is really worth it.
