"The course of true love never did run smooth."
Caramel, Braeburn, and the Elements of Harmony had long abandoned any hope of finding love in their lives. Granted, a few had their dreams of a certain somepony, but that's all they were to them: dreams. That is until Winter Wrap-Up, where Caramel's clumsiness sets off a chain of events that could lead either to the betterment of everypony or to a schism between the Elements. Visions, reappearances, secrets, and histories attack ten ponies who begin to feel love's gentle warmth. Before all is told, each will have to battle his or her demons to find love waiting on the other side.

In an attempt to save face, Big Macintosh takes drastic measures to assure his secret stays safe. However, his actions bring forward a whole new set of deceptions that aren't entirely his own.

(This is the sequel to my featured story Darkest Secrets. I highly recomend people go and read that one first if they haven't already, I'm 99% sure you won't understand the context if you don't.

“Congratulations! If you're reading this book, it means that you've been tasked with EEASS's main project: finding and putting together a team of six stallions and bring them to the spotlight for the salvation of male ponies' virility everywhere! If you haven't been tasked with the mission, please close this volume right now, and return it to our offices in Canterlot. Failure to comply will be met with extreme prejudice and harsh words.

Now, let's get started! First thing, why is it called a Five Stallions Band if you're going to need six members? In the first chapter of the book...”

What happens when Equestria needs six stallions and Luna becomes genre savy? EEASS, that's what.

An unexpected turn of events have lead to Discord's freedom, but his plans are turned asunder when Twilight Sparkle accidentally badly injures him.

Vulnerable and weak, the spirit is taken in under the ever watchful, gentle and concerned eyes of Fluttershy. Through this time of healing, the pegasus discovers that there's more to this miscreant than meets the eye, and she's determined to prove it.

Through this process dark secrets are revealed, pain is revealed, and gradually a hidden side never seen of the draconequus, and Fluttershy struggles to push him and past friends back together.

Will she ultimately have an effect on his indifferent heart or this only another one of his dastardly plans?

Spring. It's that time of year where all the fillies around start thinking less with their heads and more about doing what nature intended, if you know what I mean. For Big Macintosh, this means a whole lot of headache as he heads into town. With every mare acting like it's an all-you-can-eat special at Sugarcube Corner, how will our stoic stallion fair when he's the buffet?

Chrysalis is left broken and defeated at the edge of Equestria after her failed plan. Seeking revenge, she releases Discord from his stone prison. But after the Draconequus begins to grow on her, will more then revenge come from their partnership?

Big Macintosh doesn't know what to do when given some time off from work at Sweet Apple Acres. He goes into Ponyville for what seems like the first time in forever, and he ends up running into the mane six, who he hasn't seen in a while. He still remembers what they did for his sister last Applebuck season, and he intends to be the gentlecolt he always is, and thank them each. However, simple greetings and thanks can always blossom into something more.

At first, Chrysalis loathed him; the dumb-as-a-brick woodspony who goes by the name of Evergreen. But through circumstance, he is her only savior. And slowly, she comes to love the simple pony and his way of life. But her life as a changeling keeps holding her back. Will there be a happily ever after for them? Or are they doomed for failure?

On a Shoe Day, farriers set all their other business aside and devote the whole day to fitting ponies with shoes for the upcoming season.

Big Mac is certainly up to the task this Sunday. However, something about meeting pretty much everyone he`s on amiable terms with in one day proves to be... interesting.
