A short story after the birth of John and Margaret Thornton's first child. -The story is evolving and I can't honestly say where it will go, if anywhere. When I have good content to write, I will continue the story. Thanks for giving it a try-

The speculation of 1851. It was hailed as a sure prospect, every cotton mill owner who invested was sure to succeed, but what it it failed? The city of Milton was soon to find out as some of the most prominent mills closed their doors leaving hundreds out of work. Within all this seeming calamity was Marlborough Mills and it's master; Mr. John Thornton. He was never one to engage in speculations, but this venture affected him none the less. Then there was Margaret Hale. She was from the south and never cared for his harsh northern ways, or so he thought; but she would always be the only women he would ever love. Now Marlborough Mills was struggling and thru a series of events Mr. Thornton found that his new land lord was none other than Margaret Hale of London. Could John and Margaret find their way back to each other and set matters right or were they always destined to be apart... This story is based on the novel by Elizabeth Gaskell, North and South, and the adaptation by the same name.

Reputations, like the delicate petals of a Helstone rose, are fragile things indeed... Upon discovering Margaret in the arms of an unknown man, John intervenes. How will their story end when reputations are questioned? **This is a North and South fanfiction. As my first time publicly posting anything I have written, I encourage whatever feedback you can offer so I can improve.** Cover photo and design by beautiful_red_head (me!).

A short one shot and continuation of the story by Elizabeth Gaskell. This is my first time writing fanfiction after years of reading it. I might continue writing this story since I'm very interested in what M and J's life in Miton will be like :)

If you loved the BBC miniseries of Elizabeth Gaskell's "North and South," then this sequel is for you. "Becoming Mrs. Thornton" picks up Margaret Hale's story from the moment of her engagement. We watch her adjust to life as John Thornton's wife (yay!) and Hannah Thornton's daughter-in-law (not so yay!).

Margaret and John Marry after John reinstated his declaration of love and John hearing Margaret's declaration of love. What if John starts to worry about Margaret during the time she announces she's carrying their child to the point he injures himself? He knew many woman had perished when or a few days after they brought a child into the world.

Two paths chance to cross one evening and things will somehow never be the same again.

Dear Readers, I am just starting to upload my stories--and learning how Wattpad works. So I thought that I would start out with a short ficlet--a reimagined scene from the BBC's 2004 "North & South". I hope that you enjoy it. Cheers! Gratiana Lovelace P.S. "North & South" images are courtesy of www.RichardArmitageNet.com

A twist on Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South, Somewhere in the World sets the characters in the North and South of the U.S. Civil War.
