[ Jack Dawkins x Fem oc ] 1850s. London was soot and blood. Port Victory is no kinder. Evangeline Blythe has always known how to survive. First in the shadowed corners of London's cobblestone alleys, where she learned to stitch wounds and silence her own failing heart - and now in a colonial port town, where she trades herbs for shelter and cares for the children too afraid to ask the crown for help. She thought she'd left her old life behind - until a familiar thief with a sharp grin stumbles back into her path, all swagger and secrets, chased by more than just memory. Ten years have passed since Evangeline last saw Jack Dawkins - the boy who once begged her to play his sweetheart to outwit the Redcoats. Now he's grown, the lies are heavier, and nothing in Port Victory stays buried for long. ⸻ Genre: Historical Fiction, Romance, Drama Themes: Found family, survival, slow-burn, colonial tension, hidden illness Setting: London & Port Victory, 1850s POV: First person, from Evangeline's perspective

But now a special girl named Brielle Everly Greywood has arrived all the way from London. And while Brielle may seem like a beautiful young lady, she has a darker side than people might expect from her. Or should I say: a more thieving side..?
