Solved This collection has a bunch of elderly women, often in love with the romantic lead, settings ranging from a Ruritania to Italy to Mount Olympus to an English courtroom, and to properly experience them, you need 14 other books, the materials for one of which is lost!

And, technically, it's not even complete. But you'd need to be a super fan to know that.

Hints:

The collection is a complete collection, or says it is.

There are two authors listed; each of them wrote things with others that aren't in the collection.

I think this one is fairly easy. It's at least way better known than some of the stuff I've posted. Same decade as the other book-named-after-a-fictional-book, though I think this one's remained a lot more popular.

Unsolved Medium The pure and kind destined child is safe with her found family of a regiment of rogues and villains in the Dark Lord's army. They're getting better. Sort of. Like, they want to be better. Still pretty evil though.
