[Copyright © 2014] In 1943, Charlotte Truly is a nineteen-year-old American nurse serving in World War II. The oldest of four daughters, Charlotte is mostly a shy and reserved girl who keeps to herself. But when Charlotte meets William McCaden, an injured soldier on leave whom she'd briefly met when she was seventeen, she finds herself falling inexplicably in love. When Will is shipped overseas to Nazi-occupied France to fight in a deadly combat mission, Charlotte and Will have only their letters to keep each other close... but in the midst of war, how can love possibly survive? ----- DISCLAIMER: This work was written when I, Raine the author, was 14 years old (circa 2014) and is a FIRST DRAFT. Certain aspects of this story are highly problematic and should rightfully be called out. Please do bear in mind, however, that the entirety of what you see here was written (unedited) by a 14-year-old girl. Now, I as a 20-year-old writing student am fully aware of my mistakes and would like to apologize profusely for them. They are not reflective of my present character by any means and I can assure you that I FULLY condemn the slut-shaming, misogyny, white saviorism, racism, and the general oversimplification of vastly complex themes and historical contexts you might see in Yours Truly (2014). As much as I would like to chalk it all up to being a sign of the times (the very backwards 1940s), I understand now how I should have handled this particular time period with more tact and discretion. Especially with how I recklessly portrayed the horrific racial climate of the 1940s American South. Again, I am very sorry and can wholeheartedly promise you that any later drafts of Yours Truly would 100% rework all of these themes and contexts with the utmost of consideration towards the communities they affect directly. Thank you. -Raine, Feb. 11/2021

Can two people who are forced on a turbulent journey of lies, and deceit, still overcome and discover true love? Read Book Two of the Heiress Trilogy: "The Accidental Heiress." It can be read as a stand-alone book, but I would encourage everyone to read Book One first: "The Shipping Heiress." _____________________________________ Abagail Mercy Fulton, recently adopted by Bella Fulton Now-The Duchess of Windsor- is a rich American heiress living among the Haute Ton in England. After an accident, long ago at sea, claimed the lives of her parents, the influential, successful, and wealthy Fulton family took Abagail in and cared for her as their own. With Abagail's beloved sister, Jade Fulton, now betrothed to an Earl, Abagail feels alone as she tries to navigate and fit into the often cruel and unforgiving High Society of London's upper ten thousand. Lord Richard Freeman, is handsome, titled, wealthy, and an eligible, marquess who would love nothing more than to help ease Abagail's way through London's daunting High Society. Having found himself recently captivated and intrigued by her beauty and the hidden depths of her personality, he fears for his heart. No one has ever piqued his interest quite like the shy and sensible American Heiress. Miss Abagail Fulton is different from all the other simpering misses, and a real danger to Lord Freeman: she's the type of woman he could see spending the rest of his life with and being eternally happy and forever content. However, Lord Richard Freeman, The Marquess of Winchester, has a secret: a secret that's so shocking it could cause Abagail to turn to another.

*Now published on Amazon and free with Kindle Unlimited Sample chapters only What's a girl to do when she's left orphaned and alone after her father's unfortunate and unexpected demise? Miss Verity Weston imagined she'd be whisked off to the country and settle into a quiet life with her only living female relative, Aunt Margaret, the Countess of Blakley. However, her father had other ideas. Fearing his sister, Margaret, would set a bad example for Verity-the countess was quite eccentric and well in her dotage-her father did the unthinkable and left her the ward of Viscount Stanbury-a mere stranger. Viscount Stanbury was in too deep. A confirmed bachelor and heir to a dukedom, Julian lived his life at leisure until the unthinkable happened. However, as a gentleman, he was only as good as his word. Verity Weston had turned his life upside down, and he wanted to wring the chit's neck or kiss her senseless-depending on the moment. With Verity's exquisite beauty and dowry, settling her with an honorable husband should have been easy, yet nothing was simple when it came to Verity. A love/hate relationship, burning chemistry, and a crazy, overbearing countess collide in this thrilling and humorous Victorian Novella.

Marcie is an oddity in her village, the daughter of a widower with both village and outsider blood in her veins. She cares for her drunken father, and struggles to fit in with the rest of the village. Everything changes when she comes across two dragons, a mother and her new born, and unwittingly becomes the Tamer of the baby dragon when his mother dies. This new unlikely bond completely changes her life and opens doors to her future that she would have never thought possible whilst also causing her pain and heartache.

"As soon as you believe you are a monster is when you become one." After many years of war, the kingdom of Edria is finally in an era of peace--peace obtained by one thing and one thing only. A deal. King Regol has made a deal with the devil, or rather, a beast. A monster. Or so he claims. When he uses the deal for his own advantage, he threatens a girl named Zara, who has had everything but her family taken away. Zara is ordered to kill the beast Regol made a deal with, unbenownst to her that the deal even exists. When her attempt fails, she is left with two choices: to never go back home, or to learn from the beast so she can take back what is hers. She faces dangers on the castle grounds she thought were only stories; magic, creatures that kill a person in a single puff of air, and lastly, the beast, who can barely control the darkness that has buried itself in him for years. The longer she is on the castle grounds, however, the more she realizes everything is more than it seems... ...and that she has a power she could only dream about. **** A retelling of Beauty and the Beast Wonderful cover by @nicegirlsreadbooks Highest rank: #1 in Fantasy #4 in Adventure

(This is the book 2 of POE chronicles - please check out book 1 Evolution first ) Evolution had created us. Allowed us to be different, given us a chance to survive outside the walls of Citybases. But evolution had also made them. They might not be as intelligent as we are, but nature is on their side this time around. This is a game of survival; a game to see who adapt faster and grow stronger. You have no idea who your enemies are or what to believe. All you can do is try your best to stay alive. Nature only favours those with the right adaptation, ruthlessly eliminating the rest. Nature will make you. It will also break you. Only the fittest survive.

(This is book 3 of the P.O.E. Chronicles, Read book 1 Evolution and book 2 Selection if you haven't already) I never wanted a war. All I wanted to do was to get things back to the way they were and to keep those I love safe. But it turns out that everything was just an illusion, that the reality I lived in was all but a lie. That world was no place to live, and in order to make a better future, a future that so many have sacrificed so much to try and archive before me, I had to fight. And to do that I needed to find out the truth, no matter what horrors lie beneath it. The web of lies, of secrecy, of betrayal, is spun so far, so fine, so wide that I had been seeing only a corner of it. I didn't know if I have the strength to go on, but I know that if I don't step up, the world as we have known it will end. If you asked her four years ago what she imagined herself doing in the future, Abigail Beckett could safely tell you that it doesn't involve political meetings, living in an ancient castle and seeking advice from a three hundred years old Original. Having discovered her roots, she had inherited the responsibility to make sure the world doesn't end by the terrorist group Apocalypse and make peace among POE and Legres. With the fate of many of her friends still uncertain, she must race against time to uncover the Apocalypse's plan, pacify the government, and tried not to get killed by her grandmother.
