    Summary

    As a result of her actions during the riot, Margaret Hale and John Thornton must marry. Margaret is determined to make the most of the unexpected turn in her life.

    Yes, alright, it's one of THOSE fics, loves. (As if North and South didn't have enough of them, I’ve gone and written another one.) Here we have the forced marriage trope but without all the misunderstandings and angst and torture over married "activities". Like my friend DaisyNinjaGirl (Whose similarly inspired story is wonderful. Please read it.) I wanted to answer the question 'What if John and Margaret both decided to be honest and open and just try, for the love of all that's holy, to actually get along...all while properly shagging like normal people?' And here we are.

    This is for anyone who's ever come home from a bloody long day and just wanted a smutty, happy, North and South story.

    PS. This is already complete. (Yes...I wrote all 20 chapters...aren’t I clever?) So Happy Christmas, loves. I hope you enjoy it!

    Summary

    He knew Margaret would not take kindly to being forced into a marriage against her will. If the best that could be said before was that she didn’t like him, he knew she would hate him now.
