"She's beautiful." Jared stated, like it wasn't obvious to everyone in the room. Keegan could hear a familiar tone, and he did not like it.The tone was one that signaled when Jared had found new prey. Would he approach her, even though he knew how Keegan felt about her? Fine, he lied about it but... Jared should know better. "Do not touch her." He growled. "I mean it." "Why not? Do you want her? Or are you going to punch me for sinply saying that she is beautiful?" "No." Keegan lied in answer to his second question and ignored the rest. He then turned to watch her again. He did want her. No matter how much he wish that he did not. He wanted her more than anything he'd ever wanted. *** A girl with no name is ripped from her own time only to be sent off to God knows where, and when. What will happen to her? What will be waiting for her on the other side of darkness? The very same girl is found in the woods by Keegan and his siblings near the village of Tranmere. Who is she?

It was funny when I read other novels that portray people getting sucked out in a novel or an otome game. Until that happened to me. I wake up, groggy and feeling a bit heavy. My vision was yet to arrive when a sudden pain came from my stomach. And a child was born. From me. I don't know if I'll freak out and cry or just accept the fact that I died and was reborn. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Hey guys, oh and girls!!! Thanks for taking a chance to read my book!! You won't regret it, I promise! Anyways, all names and places or even events are pure FICTION and any similarities about people or events are just coincidences. My English is not that good, but you can still understand it so please bear with my grammatical errors and spellings. Thank you!!!!!

But she gained Easy Company. Alice and the rest of Easy Company have been through six long months of combat already. They've seen friends die. But they're about to enter the toughest months yet. December in Bastogne brings trench foot, artillery barrages, and snipers. It brings frostbite and stupid mistakes. And above all, D-Day + 193 brings death. As the war drags on, Alice must face hard truths about what it means to be a German Jew. Events from 1942 come to light which force her to rethink everything she knew about her family's fate. As it turned out, Germans were the first victims of the Nazi party. Thankfully, Alice doesn't have to face it alone. While some faces disappear forever, others become closer than she could have ever imagined.
