Young Western Victorian women were always taught to be proper--quiet, small, conserved, and hardworking. But for Eliza Lynch, this lifestyle held nothing but confinement. Her days were always the same: Wake up, eat, help her mother around the house, eat, more work, eat, and go to bed. All she wanted was to break away and make her own mark on the world.
Gabriel Sinnet's world was quite the opposite. As the son of state-wide infamous smuggler and gun slinger, James Sinnet, his life was always spent on the run. He wanted nothing more than to be a normal young man: to go to school and learn and have a normal life.
There was no hope for either of their dreams to become a reality. But that was before their paths crossed, and sent the pair on a road that neither of them ever expected they'd take.

Why don't you believe?" I ask whilst clenching the cross necklace that laid around my neck. "God has the ability to heal the world so if he exists why doesn't he? Why does he let innocent people suffer just to spite the ones doing wrong? Why would he leave two young boys motherless and then parentless? Why does character building mean going through shit?" Holden's voice cracks and I see his lips quiver, he looks away avoiding my gaze. In that moment I knew he needed comforting and sometimes that doesn't mean words, so I laid my head on his shoulder and took his hand in mine letting him know if all else goes wrong, I'll always be there for him. __________________________________ Addison Mills just had her life turned upside down, from the death of her mother to leaving the only home she's ever known and Micah, the man she loved. Things look bleek until Holden Daze , an adrenalin junkie that moonlights as the perfect southern gentleman becomes her safe haven in a unfamiliar place. As the two try to navigate their way through senior year, hidden truths begin to surface and dark forces dare to tear them apart. Will their bond be strong enough to overcome life's challenges? Or will this be another tradegy added to the history books?Concluida

Ravished by the Pirate
Cassandra didn't know what was wrong with her. Why didn't any of the Earls and Barons appeal to her? As a woman of four and twenty living in 1804 England, she was expected to be wed by now. After running away from an embarassing dance lesson, she ends up at The Vixen Inn, run by her friend, Sophia Brook. While there, a bounty hunter and his prisoner,Jeremy Hawkins, seek refuge from a storm. Can the outlaw pirate, set for a date with the gallows, be the man who can give her what she craves? I read some of the comments where people were upset about the mores of the time. It's not my personal belief. I'm just reflecting what people believed in those days. I appreciate comments. Most people don't use swear words, and I and most readers appreciate that. Please refrain from using swear words in your comments.

Heartbreak's a bitch, and her first relationship had been anything but normal. Thinking herself mature for her age, her affair with Mr. Cain started swooningly well. Except things ended quite abruptly. It's a lot for a seventeen year old to handle. But who's really at fault for what happened? Who even is Mr. Cain, and what is he hiding? From the wreckage of her naivety and self-esteem, can Louise save her friendships and rebuild herself? Our love songs aren't telling the whole truth. How can this be? In this tale of vulnerability, adolescence and painful reckoning, the arrogance of youth demands a price. * "'You're what, Louise?' he asked. 'You're sorry? What am I supposed to do here? How can I turn this around? How can I tell you that everything you want and feel is reciprocated, when I have to go back to work and pretend none of it happened?' 'I don't know the answer!' I cried. 'Neither of us do.' I threw my hands up in defeat. He caught them before they could fall. 'But how do I go back to living without your words?' His voice became a whisper. He squeezed my fingers tightly, closing his eyes and bringing them to his chest. 'I need how you make me feel, Luiza. I need it to feel alive. I won't stay away. No one's made me feel this good before. And I can't stand myself for wanting what I want. What do I do?' I was a violin bow on the verge of splintering. Every inch of me pulsed with an ache that began from the marrow of my bones. Fate had brought us here. At this crossroads of ours, there were a hundred different choices to make. A thousand different lifetimes to choose from, stemming from and decided entirely by my next choice. And in the end, I chose incorrectly. I held his face between my hands, feeling the echoing pulse of his skin. I brought his face to mine. I kissed him."Concluida
