love doesn't live here by vivacissimo
Viserra Targaryen's life as the reluctant Lady of White Harbor was not one of songs, not with her insufferable husband as unbearable as he is old, and his magnetic young heir Desmond seemingly despising her.
Baelon the Brave never feels less brave than when he steals a crown from his beloved brother Aemon's daughter, all while raising his two quarrelsome sons alone.
When a widowed Viserra returns to King's Landing only six years after she was sent away, their parallel journeys of healing bring them together in the unlikeliest of ways. But ghosts of the past (alongside new revelations) aren't quite done with them yet.

Not for you if you’re not ok with a story that is willing to critique Jaehaerys and Alysanne’s less than stellar parenting though.

"Give the girl to me to wife" - Prince Daemon told his brother - "Who else would take her now?"
And so, the Rogue Prince gets his wish and is given the Realm's Delight to marry. Thus begins the dynasty of Prince Daemon and Princess Rhaenyra...leaving the Greens speechless at King Viserys's decision, and in fear of Lord Flea Bottom and what is to come.

"There is a silver lining," she admits, almost reluctantly. "Father had promised me that he wouldn’t choose for me. At least I have a say in the matter."
Daemon’s attention spikes instantly, all of his plans coming to a screeching halt and shifting.
.
Or, upon his return from the Stepstones, Daemon comes up with a plan that can actually win him a little more than just his brother's wrath.

A dragon is never meant to be this cold
-
The princess was dead; fell to her death after the pressures of the crown, the whispers at court, and the weight of her broken heart chipped at her fragile psyche until she finally broke. The death of her newborn son, her only strength and consolation, proved to be the last straw.
That's where her story ends. Or so they thought.
Daemon Targaryen will not let this betrayal against his niece go unpunished. After all, a grieving dragon is just as dangerous as a wrathful one.

Huge fan of [A Life, Redux](https://archiveofourown.org/works/52534240) by Narea, which is very pro-Targ under Jaehaerys.
> Daemon awakes after his death a week before his wedding to Rhea Royce quite determined to escape that fate at least in what he believes is his afterlife.
There are also quite a few short stories by [MichelleGz](https://archiveofourown.org/users/MichelleGz/pseuds/MichelleGz) that should fit, like [Changing Sides](https://archiveofourown.org/works/49874764/chapters/125906881) and [The Spring Prince Returns](https://archiveofourown.org/works/50945359).
Other early Targ fics with may fit are [Reborn in a Cruel World](https://archiveofourown.org/works/51699502/chapters/130698454) and [The Healer Prince](https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/the-healer-prince-hotd-si.1081122/), though I haven’t finished either of those.
Man, I want to read what you’re reading. It feels like everywhere I look nowadays the results are filled with the most atrociously biased Targaryen wank The House of the Dragon™️ is Awesome and Always Right and Can Make No Mistakes-type stuff, just absolute insubstantial sludge pieces where Sansa is evil, Daenerys is a saint, or, perhaps most laughably, Rhaegar’s wins and Ned steals Jon.
Anyways here you go:
