"Lieutenant, speak when spoken to-" He choked when he got a glimpse of my face. "Yes, George?" "W-What in all things holy are you in military attire for?" He struggled to gain graceful composure, slowly falling to his knees beside me. "I think I have already told you sir, I do not thrive in dresses." "So you stole that uniform." "Precisely, except 'stole' is a harsh word. I would prefer the word 'borrow'." I smiled at him. ~~~ Thank you for your interest in this book. Yes, it's another King George x Reader book. I hope that I don't bore you that bad with it. Disclaimer: I do not own Hamilton or any of its characters. I only came up with the plot. ***LMAO this is some shit I wrote as a junior in high school damn this is old.Complete

Coward [ORIGINAL]
EDIT: THIS IS THE FIRST DRAFT OF COWARD AND IN MY OWN HUMBLE OPINION, ABSOLUTELY TRASH. I'm sure there are some incredibly kind people out there who actually liked this, but I'm abandoning it because I've got another story idea based off of this one that will definitely be better. So. Um. Read that one!! I mean, you can read this if you want, but it doesn't really matter. Yeah. Ok. See you in the (BETTER) other version! PS: It's also called Coward. You'll find it if you click on my icon thingie. *** [ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION] I'm just gonna change the description again cuz why not. Basically this is the story of a young noblewoman, Ellie, who flees from England and her father and seeks shelter in the colonies (this is in 1760, guys, so I don't know if she'll ever meet the Hamilsquad. If you want her too, just comment or PM me). She hides as a servant in Georgia, but before long she is forced back to England... and her fate. I haven't got the entire thing planned out yet, but I WILL. And I know this sounds extremely crappy, but PLZ read it? Pretty please with a Hamilton ticket on top? If you click read, THANK YOU SO MUCH AND MAY YOU BE BLESSED AND HAVE A LONG, WONDERFUL LIFE! <3 <3Complete
Waking up to a new reality
Eric was the younger of twelve year old twins, just approaching their thirteenth birthday. Although only six minutes younger than Lauren, she was clearly the alpha character when it came to sibling rivalry; she had an effervescent outgoing personality and exuded confidence in everything that she did. Eric, on the other hand, was introverted and largely lived his life in under the shadow of his sister. That was until Eric was diagnosed with a life threatening condition. Admitted to hospital for emergency life-changing surgery. Waking up a different person there was a new-found confidence and optimism that results in a metamorphosis into a life that is far from the shadows. Born out of Covid-19 lockdown, this was conceived as a light-hearted short story to counteract the doom and gloom that was resulting from the pandemic. It grew longer than expected, as I got to know Erin. The story might still be a bit rough round the edges, but I wanted to release it in time for summer vacation reading. There is no violence or hatred, just kindness and acceptance. For those that discount this as unrealistic of the real world, I counter two arguments: 1) It is a complete work of fiction. 2) My son went to Lycee (Senior secondary school) in rural France, where attitudes are generally very conservative. Despite this, there was a girl his his year, who believed she should have been a boy. HE was accepted for who he was, without prejudice. Hopefully it offers a little light reading with a happy ending. Not that the story is set in Scotland and the spelling reflects British convention, perhaps with some Scottish dialect thrown in.Complete

His Baby
A/N - There are many spelling and grammar mistakes - I apologise, also this was written when I was a teen so this story is so beyond reality. Thanks. Rose Quinten is the daughter of an ex-Navy seal turned security for the rich and famous. After a tragic life in England they up and move to sunny California where she meets the bad boy at a party when a guy tried to force himself on her he saves her, keeping her safe in a room they play games all night then things get heated. Rose unknowingly meets the family of the guy she slept with. Rose is in for one hell of an adventure and also gets more than she bargained for in the end. Comments - "I have to say this is a sweet romance that brings the wonders of being a new mom (dad) in to it, Its a romance that id read again (I've already read it a couple of times XD) I love how she (rose) is not like everyone else I've read. Its refreshing, I mean she's strong, hard-headed (at times) And witty. Its funny reading about how she boss's everyone around (in a good way of course) the Adventures. The tell of a girl turning in to the women she is to day. Its breath taking, I'm gonna stop now before I say to much, But its a good book that can make you laugh just as fast as it can make you cry.... Ok for real I'm stopping (lol) But its a wonderful read" - arrow1616 #5 in Teen Fiction out of 243k Stories - 03 Oct 2020 #3 in Teen Fiction out of 254k Stories - 25 Apr 2022 © This book is of my own creation and I reserve all rights to it.
