The Boy She Illegally Brought To The Lavender Field (bwwm) by imjustvibinfr

(If you read 'Bunny' then you know that towards the end there is a movie plot. I came up with it just so the movie Willow would be in sounded realistic and good but I couldn't let it go so I wrote this book based off of it but with a few changes added after finding out there's apparently already a movie similar to the movie mentioned in 'Bunny'. This story contains true events and is now based on multiple real stories put into one.) "God owes me now and I want it paid back in full." In the south of Mississippi during the civil rights movement, two families seem tied together regardless of how many times they try to break apart. In the height of racial injustice and the fight back, the Moore and Ross families are plagued with hard choices, evil people and scary experiences. Read this book to be a part of both family stories as they learn it's okay to be selfish and live the life they deserve. (Warning: story contains violence, murder, attempted r***, slurs, and other harsh language. Reader discretion advised.)
