Every time Hermione has a crush on someone, she has turned to pen and paper and words to help herself sort through her emotions. She’s written five letters to the boys she’s loved before, poured her heart into them— and kept them hidden away, meant only for her own eyes.
Now, somehow, all the letters are out.
Seventh year is about to get rather interesting.

Bookmarker's Notes
In love with this story. I feel like it is one of the most deftly adapted Austen fics I have ever read. I love that it’s from Frederick’s POV, I love all the wonderful ice skating details, the Princess Bride references, all of it! Obviously An Ever Fixed Mark by this same author is quite possible GOAT status JAFF, but this is up there too.

Summary
Everyone knew what veela were. Veela were magical creatures, breathtakingly beautiful, who captivated men with a single look. It would have been nice to have been that strain. Instead, Hermione Granger was infected by another. Instead of captivating all men, she was captivated by one. She'd die without him. She was already in almost constant pain.

Gender bent stories are not at all my usual read, but THIS, honestly, was so well-done. Beautifully written, with a compelling reason for the swap, just so agonizingly tender in parts.

Summary
Modern AU.
Elizabeth Bennet is a special operative, protecting England, scones, cheddar, and democracy. She is also a submissive in a harsh world where the population is divided between dominants and submissives.
So, you know. Life could be better...
Especially because Elizabeth is also head over heels in love with a dominant, another special forces agent, Fitzwilliam Darcy, who is COMPLETELY out of her league.
But a girl can dream, right?
