Summary
Mary was not used to touches growing up. It changed when she moved to London, and became a natural part of her days. Touches did not bother her anymore. That is until she got touched by Mr Hayward for the first time, and it was all she could think about.

Summary
Mary drew her awareness to the way her shoulders relaxed and her heart rate slowed as she dutifully performed the sham effort of joining the back of the long line to the counter. It didn’t seem to matter that she was always dressed in unflattering bright blue scrubs, or that she wore a garish surgical cap featuring Bluey characters, Tom reliably caught her eye, gave her a slow, admiring wink, and set about prioritising the order he knew by heart over the demands of all the other waiting customers.
Dr Mary Bennet, paediatric trauma surgeon, knew of only one source of reprieve for the heavy burden she daily bore in the operating theatre - the kind eyes and easy charm of the Irish barista at Cup & Clover, the hospital café.
(Someone who has worked for all he has and made a success of himself would surely be far more attractive to a current-day career woman than some manchild with a trust-fund.)
Hence I give you the Surgeon/Barista AU you never knew you needed.

Summary
Mary and Tom are book editors in Bloomsbury, skilled at untangling narratives but utterly clueless when it comes to their own.
Modern AU.
Mary closed her eyes and took a breath, trying to ignore the fire that had begun to burn in her chest.
“So, it’s a compromise for you?” she said, her voice trembling with a brittle, rising anger. “You offer me ‘security,’ and in exchange, I devote my life and every waking hour to your whims and travels?”
“I never said—”
“Yet you made it perfectly clear."Bookmarked by Snuz99

Summary
Mary and Tom's wedding night. Both are virgins. Mary is thrilled, terrified, and determined to do it right. Tom is delighted by Mary's Mary-ness and cannot wait to bed his wife. Much awkwardness, tenderness, and eventual steaminess ensues.
AKA I refuse to believe Mary and Tom are naturals at sex but by God they get there eventually.

Summary
He'd heard about it before, in whispers from the sort of men who went to gentlemen's clubs and brothels. An act that was pleasurable for the woman, though perhaps debasing for the man.
Tom didn't think it could be.
It was a hunger that lived deep inside him, and he needed to satisfy it desperately.
AKA: Tom wants to go down on Mary. Badly.
