No matter how her heart breaks, or the world burns around her, Marianne Wilson is a practical girl. She has a tavern to run, after all, and a family of traitors to protect. But, as the situation in Cambridge becomes more dire, and it appears that war with the British is coming, it becomes increasingly difficult to stay neutral. The spell of revolution is seductive, even as handsome British soldier is quartered with them. When unexpected matters of heart begin to disrupt her carefully guarded facade, Marianne must discover who she can trust, and if she is ready to give in to dangerous, impractical love.

I curled under the jungle gym and cried my eyes out. Suddenly a shadow hovered over me. I looked up saw a boy about my age staring at me with a Unknown expression. He bent down and wiped away my tears with the pad of his thumbs. I immediately stopped crying and looked into his bright Emerald eyes. "Why are you crying?" He asked and I looked down. "Because I know that'll never make friends here" I said quietly. He was quiet for a minute before finally speaking up. "I'll be your friend" he said quietly while looking into my eyes. I smiled a toothy grin. "Really!?" I asked and he nodded his head. "You'll be mine" ~~~~ Ranked # 2 in Werewolf on 7/13/17 Beautiful cover made by: kaori_nakahodo STARTED: JUNE 28, 2015 FINISHED: AUGUST 22, 2016 EDITING: ON GOING
