What happens when the two people who swear they can stand each other actually can? This is a RomCom. "Stop" Sam said looking away "Stop what?" She looked at him confused "You'll me say things I can't take back Mia" "How" He looked at her. His lips apart but words still stuck in his throat, maybe it was the way the light was tinted that made the green of her eyes so intense. He forgot how to talk. Wasn't it bloody obvious already?

(Formerly The Black Knight 2012 Watty Finalist) Sir William Horton is Ashfern's resident Hero. He was the richest man in five counties and a well-known bastard. Rumors of every kind have been whispered about the infamous Black Knight, his all-encompassing cruelty, his frozen heart, and the twisted means by which he finds his pleasure. Every person in Ashfern knows to keep a wagging tongue still and eyes trained anywhere but on him should he come into view. So when Nan Harris finds him on the beach and is neither distant, silent, nor fearful, he cannot help but wonder. How can a simple beggar girl can treat him as though he is just another man? Who is this woman that can hold his attention with just a few words, or more importantly, who was she before coming to Ashfern?
