Or will Prohibition, duty, and long-hidden family secrets tear them apart? Trigger warnings: Strong language, sexual content, mental and emotional abuse, and alcoholism.

    Desperate to escape their tiny Arkansas hometown and the dark scars and secrets of their past, four seventeen-year-old best friends make the decision to run away from Russellville and immerse themselves in the glamour and glitz of Prohibition-era New Orleans. Farrah Thornton was the eldest, the golden daughter of a preacher. Raised to be perfectly prim, she always felt caged in Arkansas. But the good-girl act won’t last long in New Orleans, especially once the whiskey hits her bloodstream. Jackelyn Steele was the rebel. All she wants to do is escape her abusive and drunkard father, as well as her life of poverty and equally miserable future. Her sneaky, ambitious nature will serve her well in “the City that Care Forgot”, but the people she meets might be just as horrible as the ones she ran away from. Eve Bartlett was the friendly one. The warmest and nicest of the girls, she holds them together through thick and thin, but has her own personal goals to experience the world as much as she can. Her desire to see everything the city has to offer and to support her fellow women in their struggle for rights, however, may very well drag her into hot water And then there was Lilith Clyde, the youngest and shyest of the group. Redheaded, freckled, and terribly insecure, Lilith let herself be walked over in Russellville. But with the salty air of the city comes a new feeling of power, and Lilith will do anything to get what she’s wanted her entire life – to see her name in lights. It was the age of Prohibition. The age of rumrunners, bootleggers, and moonshiners. The age of smoky speakeasies and the rise of jazz. It was the age of flappers and scandalously high hemlines. The age of red lipstick and sequins. The age of elegant cocktails and charming gangsters with their hats pulled down low. It was the age of love, whiskey, and cigarettes. And New Orleans was about to get wild.

    "A Bridge To Cross" is a historical fiction set in 1927. The story begins in Buffalo, NY when the lives of young, vigorous Leopold Throckmorton and vivacious Phryne Truffaut are driven to drastic change by deception, betrayal and violence. Phryne and Leopold have kept steady company for almost two years, and are a dynamic, effervescent pair. The subject of marriage was brought up more than once, but they never made any definite plans. They seemed to shy away from any sense of permanence in their relationship. Secretly, they feared that marriage would be the end of the fun. Neither of them desired their lifestyle to change; at least not yet. There was simply too much to do, so much to enjoy, and, besides, life so far has been an endless party. Phryne relished her sexuality and would tease her man at every opportunity. A soft touch here, a quiet whisper there, or a gentle hand upon his thigh was not only a temptation for him, but a thrill for her. He knew it, and sometimes would pretend to ignore her with detached indifference. This would only make her tantalizing behavior even more direct, and his playful rejections stronger. It was foreplay that could last for hours, and always ended with passionate, prolonged and fervent rapture. Phryne and Leopold shared an avaricious love of life that was energetically practiced as the accepted norm in 1927. Living and loving in the "Roaring Twenties" was exactly that: experiencing life with a resounding roar. Forces beyond their control eventually make the roar even louder and dangerously deafening.

    In the heart of a city that worships profit without knowing it, Silas Crowe, known to those who notice him as Greed, presides over his empire with precision and quiet dominance. Yet even the most meticulous calculations are vulnerable, and an unexpected choice threatens to unravel the balance he has maintained for decades. A new figure rises from the shadows, a Sin as yet unnamed, whose presence begins to challenge Silas' station, testing his control, his judgment, and the limits of influence built over years of secrecy. The Seven may still hold power, but one misstep could shift the scales, and what was once assumed eternal becomes perilously fragile.
