Anne Wheeler is a misunderstood, colored woman who was a slave up until she was 20 years old. She's reunited with her brother WD when slavery is abolished, and he convinces her to do a trapeze act with him in P.T. Barnum's Circus. But when she meets a questionable, supposedly no-good man named Phillip Carlyle, things in her life take a turn. In this story, Anne battles through discrimination, assault, and heart ache. When you're reading this story I can promise you one thing. Feels. 

This story starts at the beginning of 'The Greatest Showman.' I have no rights to the movie or the characters. Fic rated: PG-13 for some adult themes and mild language.

Warning: There are adult themes in this story. There will be notices in a chapter that contains them before and after they happen. All of these themes (examples: self-harm, assault) are mildly used, and they all have negative outcomes. I'm not adding  these things to the story to promote them. I'm just simply adding them to make the romantic plot more interesting. 

If you are struggling with a mental illness, or have been assaulted, do not hesitate to get help. You are important. And I love you. If you need help, talk to someone you trust, seek therapy or (in extreme cases) call 1-800-273-8255. I'm always open to talk to if someone needs it. 💕

" " What?!, When?!, Where?!, Why?!, And how?! " • As the average savage adult that I am, I can be very serious with my work and words, but that happens exactly right after the death of my father, or so I thought. My brothers and I have been getting along very well, as a Bounty Hunter, I can be very intimidating, until I met him. His hair, his eyes, his touch is all I need, I never thought all that of him can make me feel like this and to my surprise, I act like a child. I was just no longer that average savage adult that I was, but everything changed when I learned about his past. I couldn't believe it nor could I even want to, it was overwhelming. I was lost, confused, it got to the point where I wasn't myself for a while. But the fun part is being Dominant. What's that supposed to mean?, What past did this person learn?, Is the father dead or alive?, Who's more dominant?, In what way? Read this book to know.

Well, this is my own twist on it. What if Anne and her brother had a 14 year old sister? And what if Phillip had a younger 16 year old brother? • "Why don't we rewrite the stars? Say you were made to be M I N E." • Read? This is the Greatest Book! It'll take you to the other side, of awesomeness! Ok I'm gonna stop with the puns. Hope you all can Come Alive with this one ;)
