Roman Brady has barely been back in Salem two months, when he abandons his family because of a threat from organized crime boss Raffi Torres. Marlena and her children are left vulnerable when Raffi decides to go after them instead. John takes Marlena, Eric, Sami, and Carrie on the run, determined to protect the family that will always be his.

This story is inspired by "A very Salem Christmas" which didn't have enough of the magic that is John and Marlena😍. I hope you will enjoy it☺️

Post Marlena's 1992 return to Salem. Marlena made the decision to give her marriage to Roman a try, but is struggling. John, putting his own pain aside, is frequently there to help her. Thank you to Ms. Goldie for the cover art and for inspiring me to revise and continue this story!

What is Isabella never existed and John was left alone in Mexico assuming Marlena had chosen Roman? Would Marlena show her true colors? And would Romans faults come to light?

John can't forget the one woman he can't have. Marlena can't stop dreaming of the man she should have let go. What happens when fear, love, and desperation collide? This is a Canon Divergence retelling of the Lady in a Cage storyline with significant canon changes leading to another affair.

Marlena helps John discover the secrets of his past after the return from Mexico. Both of them navigates their individual relationships with Isabella and Roman, while denying their love for each other.

Yet another love story. It's 2018...Marlena never stopped John from leaving Salem in 1993. Will they ever meet again and what would happen if they did meet after 25 years apart.

John and Marlena deal with her memory loss and Alex North's control. Each short story is its own separate short, basically how I wanted or thought a conversation/event should have gone during this awful storyline long ago.

John left Salem in 1993, and two years later Stefano has drawn him back in, by kidnapping Marlena. John, Marlena, and Roman are pulled in as Pawn's in one last game plotted out by Stefano DiMera's diabolical mind. What happens when past lovers reconnect, and the real truth behind Stefano's hatred for the Brady's comes to light?

This is another one-shot but I am posting it in sections as I write it so keep checking back because I'll be updating it every few days! This story takes place in early 1997, mere days after John married Susan, masquerading as Kristen, in the delivery room as she gave birth to Elvis Jr., or John Jr., whichever you prefer. You might remember a rather delicious kiss that John and Marlena shared in Kristen's hospital room in the days following John Jr.'s arrival, while Kristen was trying to seduce her 'husband' into bed and Marlena was struggling with telling John the truth about his 'wife'. Well, that's where this short story starts. I think we all know where it's gonna end....
