1968 Stories

2026. Baton Rouge. Six biological sisters - Keziah, Amaya, Zuri, Ashley, Marisol, and Toni Riley - are just trying to survive grad school, jobs, and Louisiana heat. They're close, chaotic, and ordinary. Until the night a freak power surge hits during a thunderstorm at their late grandmother's house, and the old RCA record player in the attic starts spinning I Want You Back... before that record was ever pressed. When they wake up, it's July 1968. Gary, Indiana. The air smells like steel mills and hair grease. And in a cramped living room on Jackson Street, five brothers are rehearsing with a leather strap snapping in time. They can't say why they're there. They can't say what they know. Joseph doesn't allow the boys to call him "Dad" - only "Joseph." Rehearsals leave welts. And a 9-year-old Michael Jackson has a voice that makes the walls shake. This isn't a romance yet. It's survival. It's friendship earned in small moments: sharing Katherine's peach cobbler, hiding report cards from Joseph, watching a kid named Michael dance to James Brown like he was born to it. Because history is already written - July 23, 1968: Motown Audition. October 18, 1969: Hollywood Palace. December 14, 1969: Ed Sullivan. And the sisters know what comes after. The #1s. The 200+ shows a year. The belts. The loneliness. The boy who will become the biggest star in the world, and the brothers who will try not to drown in his shadow. They can't change it. They can't even hint at it. All they can do is be there. Book 1 of the Time Travel Romance series. Slow-burn, historically accurate, and based on documented events from the Jackson family's early years. No one gets saved. History stays intact. But maybe, just maybe, it gets a little less lonely.

Four years ago, on a stormy night filled with howling winds and flashes of lightning, a six-year-old boy stood frozen in terror as he witnessed the unthinkable. His mother, a kind and gentle woman, was facing an evil wizard whose sinister laughter echoed ominously through the air. In her final moments, she turned to him with tears in her eyes, urging him with her last breath to promise that he would look after his younger siblings, a promise he made wholeheartedly despite the weight of the world suddenly resting on his tiny shoulders. It was 1986, and the boy, no longer the wide-eyed child of that fateful night, had grown into a thoughtful ten-year-old. The thought of attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry filled his mind with excitement and trepidation. While tales of magic and adventure beckoned, a more profound struggle churned within him-the looming question of whether he could leave his siblings behind. They depended on him now more than ever, and the thought of stepping into a new world while they remained behind weighed heavily on his heart. The prospect of embracing a magical quest clashed with his steadfast commitment to family, torn him between his duty and his dreams.
