Once upon a time, in the faraway England, a young singer lived in a shining hotel. although he had everything he desired, the singer was spoiled. Will he be able to break the curse when he meets a young writer? A twist to the famous tale and movie. I don't really think I based this on their own persona, but more on the characters they (sort of) played on the "Hard Day's Night" movie. **some cute but EXPLICIT - no violent tho**

Hamburg, 1960. Willa and Elsie March are on the run, and they find safety at the Bambi Kino in the red light district of Hamburg with five cocky, sometimes maddening, usually drunk, and bloody talented boys--the Beatles. Willa has never met anyone quite like John Lennon. He's everything she didn't know she'd been missing. "I thought about John, about our interactions and our late-night chats. He was without a doubt intense, and most definitely moody. He made me feel so many things--confused, annoyed, relieved, comfortable, content, and bloody irritated--but not nervous." And there's more to Elsie's relationship with Paul McCartney than she's willing to admit. This is their story, full of trust, betrayal, secrets, love, lies, hope...and the Beatles. ** Achievements 2025 Grand Winner - Fanficiton Category (The Nano Watt Awards) ** •Part One: 1960 (Chp 0 - Chp 17) Started: March 5, 2023 Completed: June 27, 2023 •Part Two: 1961 (Chp 18 - Chp 36) Started: Sept 24, 2023 Completed: June 16, 2024 •Part Three: 1962 (Chp 37 - Chp 53) Started: Sept 29, 2024 Completed: March 23, 2025 ** Thank you so much to the amazing @strange_daisies for creating the cover! ** [Just Like] Starting Over is a work of fiction.

1965 started off like any normal year, then one trip to visit my Uncle George at work turned out to completely change my life. Why, you ask? Because it started my life with Paul McCartney.

1957 Liverpool. It's summer, and Wendy is new to town. Out with her little brother one afternoon, she runs into a boy that doesn't really strike her fancy, and then another one that does. And teddy girl Wendy, is up for the challenge that is John Lennon.

The year is 1967 and Evelyn Moore, an average 22-year old photographer struggling to make a name for herself, finds herself moving from the lonely state of Montana across the sea to London to pursue her career. Ever since Beatlemania hit the UK and the United States, nobody could get enough of the Fab Four. Evelyn knew that, and she intended to give the people exactly what they wanted. Even if it meant breaking a few hearts along the way.

It's December 1968. John is now with Yoko. George and Ringo are fed up with being 'Beatles' and the band are arguing constantly between themselves. For Paul, having been very publically 'dumped' by Jane just a few months before, this is all too much! He finds himself very much alone and disillusioned with his life. Then, after meeting Lucy, it seems that life can only get better...or can it?
