It's the 1860s. As the American Civil War rages on, two teenagers find unexpected refuge in their budding friendship-one that blossoms into something more. In a small Maryland town balanced on the edge of loyalty and rebellion, they find themselves irrevocably drawn together. One is a free spirit, sharp-tongued, and unconventional young lady. The other, a charming outsider raised among aristocrats, jaded by the frivolous life of high society. She's lost someone to the war. He knows it's the wrong time to fall in love. But the heart rarely waits for permission. ┎┈┈┈┈୨♡୧┈┈┈┈୨♡୧┈┈┈┈୨♡୧┈┈┈┈┒ This slow-burning romance explores the courage it takes to hope-especially when everything around you says not to. With letters tucked under pillows, glances that linger too long, and a town that watches too closely, their story is one of stolen moments and hard decisions. Featuring beloved tropes like friends to lovers, and the yearning ache of uncertain affection, this sweeping historical drama captures the uncertain beauty of first love in a world where trust is a radical act-and loving someone may be the bravest choice of all. ┖┈┈┈┈୨♡୧┈┈┈┈୨♡୧┈┈┈┈୨♡୧┈┈┈┈┚ ------ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ------ Top Rank Tags: #1 on 1860 #6 on Clean This book is entirely a work of fiction, inspired by the historical events of the American Civil War.

(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right? Rating: R+15 *** Updates: Irregular This book contains anime/manga illustrations (all drawn by me, unless stated otherwise) and sensitive topics such as depression and grief. 🎖- YARomance - Semesters of Love 🎖- Official Anime Profile - Light Novel 🎖- Official Teen Fiction Profile - Soul Deep 🥈- Undiscovered Writers Awards: Light Novel 🥈- Spotlight Awards: Teen Fiction
