Summary
Aliens made contact with earth, and they're... nice. Too nice for you to trust. As an independent journalist, you have catalogued every interaction between humans and trolls that you could get your prying hands on and speculated endlessly on their true motives. Recently, the Beforan government has permitted travel to their planet, and the concept lit a bulb in your mind in an instant.
If you want to learn the true face of any government, you don't ask an ambassador, or even a citizen. You ask a prisoner.

Summary
After over a decade of warring with the ever-expanding Prospitian Empire, the weakened and exhausted Kingdom of Derse is forced to bend the knee and surrender to being annexed by the Empire. Now subsumed in its nearly pan-continental rule, the Dersite royal family is forced to leave the only home they've ever known and stay in the Imperial palace in Prospit's capital to begin negotiations for their peace treaty, until terms are settled and the Empire is assured that Derse won’t rebel.
To the Derse Crown Prince’s surprise, “negotiations” also included an arrangement for him to marry the Duke of the English Isles. Not even Prospit’s own heir to the throne, Crown Princess Jane Crocker—a duke, who really gets under Dirk’s skin in ways he can’t quite explain.
One final spit in the face from the Empress, but Derse’s prince can’t dare to reject it for fear of the consequences for his family and his nation, whose fate are now carried on the terms and stipulations of this marriage agreement.
But Dirk was a soldier as well as a prince. He was smart. He would figure out a way through this. He just had to figure out the deal with Duke Jacob Harley first.

Summary
Neither Dave Strider nor Karkat Vantas, two halves of a recently married couple, have ever considered themselves particularly capable future parents. In fact, both men are downright mortified of the mere possibility. Unfortunately, they also share a stubborn obsession with doing the “right thing”, and the death of a distant Strider relative is the beginning of a journey they're not quite prepared to face.
(Knowledge of Buy My Friendship not required.)

Summary
Dave Strider, 30, has a problem: His formerly comfortable life in New Alternia Hills has been slowly uprooted over the past three years. His sister, Rose, moved away and left him her old house three months ago. After what feels like a lifetime of trying to find a new friend group, he breaks down and lets his ridiculously wealthy twin pay for some convoluted "rent-a-friend" scheme.
Karkat Vantas, 25, needs $20,000 to pay off his student loans, and he thinks he's found a (mostly) painless way to do it. All he has to do is avoid falling for his (admittedly pretty hot) employer.
Clearly, nothing can go wrong here.
