In Austria 1937, Amelie Bauer has been dreading the debutante ball her parents signed her up for, for weeks now. She'd much rather be in her garden, or by herself reading her romance or detective novels. When the evening of the debutante ball arrives, she is met with an ominous man lurking about the grounds. She, soon after noticing him, finds herself face to face with the strangely dashing man as she escapes the ball. His name is Anton, and he some how charms his way into gaining her trust.

But remember, trust can be lost so quickly.

The Regency Rules by Blondeanddangerous

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of her own business and independence, must be in want of a man who wants more than a damn one-night-stand. Right?! Annie La Fontaine is fed up with modern dating. Too many non-committal guys, too many disappointments, and definitely not enough romantic yearning. So when she decides to create a monthly Regency-style ball in her small Australian town, she is unprepared for both its success AND for one very specific suitor who arrives unannounced (how rude!): Blake Byrne, her first love and the man who broke her heart years ago. Blake knows better than to try again with Annie - romancing his sister's best friend all those years before had been a mistake, and he is still putting the broken pieces of his life back together after a terrible accident. But in love, the heart wants what it wants, and as Annie and Blake find themselves unable to stop the gravitational pull back towards each other, will they be able to put their pasts behind them and their hearts back on the line? Or will the rules of a Regency romance be too challenging to overcome?

Yet, their actions were met with death and brokenness - their bodies were left to freeze next to the morning trash. But Daniel Wellinger - a respected apothecary - found one of the girls alive and took her home. He nursed her back to health and adopted her as his daughter. Daniel gave her a new life, a new identity - Deborah. Despite the current prejudices in the land of Fantasia, she grew up like a flower under Daniel's protective care.

Not Your Princess by badboybooktrope

Loosely inspired by the fairy tale of Cinderella, Not Your Princess plays on the scenario where neither the prince nor the future princess attends the ball. Aschleigh Baker did not have a fairy godmother to rescue her when she was prohibited from attending the prince's engagement ball. No one was there to wave a magic wand and right all of the wrongs done unto her. Instead, she ended up going to the town's tavern to miserably celebrate her last night of freedom before she is forced into marrying her family's blackmailer, who knows about her secret imperviousness to fire. Prince Augustus never wanted to be forced into an arranged marriage with a stranger. Thus, on the night of his engagement ball, he finds himself visiting the nearest town's tavern to live one more day of freedom. There, he meets Asch and finds himself enchanted by her from the moment they first meet. Neither one of them was aware that missing the ball would lead to an accidental, irreversible marriage. Nor could they expect a person calling themselves the Priestess to set their sights on the new princess, intending to kill her for sins Asch is not aware of. As secrets are revealed and characters called into question, the accidental couple must learn to navigate the world with one another or risk losing more than memories of their wedding.
