Richard Faulkes didn't want to fight a war. He wanted to live out his days peacefully in London, watching out for others and doing whatever made people smile. Peter and Katherine wanted just the same. But someone started a war, and they had to do their part to stop it. None were grumbling about that.
Seems everyone got a war whether they wanted it or not.
Even with one of their number out of the country, Peter, Richard, and Katherine don't plan on leaving anyone alone. Despite the Blitz and the miles, some would say that the trio were closer than they'd ever been. And no one denied that they were closer to the suffering people around them.
|"After all this, and I'm sure you'll both agree with me, I don't think wars are fought with guns and bombs after all. I've done much more caring for others than fighting for them. I think I prefer it."|

Duchess
"don't you wish all spies could be so lovely?" Codenamed the Duchess of the Allies, Louisa Tallmadge is thrown into the midst of World War II as an Air Force pilot and a spy. Her husband Benjamin, is deeply in love with leather jackets, the American cause, and Louisa. With Benjamin as the head of US intelligence and Louisa his top spy, an ocean of separation between them and the constant dangers of being in enemy territory threaten to separate them forever. (a WWII spinoff of my book Of Wildflowers and Gunpowder, with a few of the same characters making appearances. Mostly because I wanted to experiment with Louisa and Ben in the 20th century, and a SEVERE lack of WWII books on here which stinks...ANYWAY GOOD LUCK AND THANKS FOR ANY INPUT)Complete
North Road {HS}
His eyes are a shade of green I can't quite put a name to. Muddy, overwhelming, pain might come close, and maybe that's why it seems so familiar. Because his arms, clad in the faded homespun my mother once made, feel like home. He's a sad, lovely song I don't know the words too but long with every ounce of my being to sing. ----------------------------- It's 1918 and an entire generation is aching in its very bones. Love and loss are bedfellows. Sometimes in the aftermath of death things grow and in the aftermath of war is life. ----------------------------- Harry Styles/ Emilia Clarke/ Sam Claflin/ Lily James (#1 in WW1)Complete
The Decorum of Warfare - Zarry - GIOD Sequel
"If everyone fought for their own convictions there would be no war." ― Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace All they ever wanted was to end the war. And they did. Peace was all that England had known for five years until a threat arose. Not in their kingdom but across the channel. Most things start off easy, simple. They trickle in bit by bit so you almost don't even notice until they start to drown you. England is still enjoying peace but her Kings know that now they're knee-deep in bitter water. It has been five years since Zayn and Harry had to unsheath their swords as the Kings of England and defend their Kingdom. Just when they thought they could live out the rest of their reign in peace, with their children never having to experience war, France starts to pose a threat to them. Will they manage to save England? Or will they fall victim to foolish ambitions of lesser men? [Sequel to Glory in Our Defiance]Complete

. *. ⋆ Simone Adler was 23 years old when she decided she'd do all she could to help bring the war to an end- to do that, she studied and trained for hours a day, multiple days a week, her efforts being given to becoming a nurse. A flight nurse, specifically, where she'd be on board with the men, aiding them when needed, her skills there to help save lives that would be lost if she weren't on board. Through this process, Simone met the men she would be stationed with, being those of the 100th Bomb Group. They all seemed okay in Simone's opinion- except for one, that is. John D. Brady, the bane of her existence- he was insufferable, always cranky, and for some reason hated her before she could even have a real conversation with him. The hatred was mutual, of course- however, the hatred was quick to morph into something different, something more friendly after the two encountered near-death situations. It was something that resembled love- something that was love, and it was so very clearly the one thing that was destined to save them in the end.

Under The Banner ▪ Band Of Brothers
Collaboration with @silmarilz1701 Svetlana knew how to play the game. She'd been caught in the political drama of Stalin's inner circle since birth. The only child of one of Stalin's closest friends, she grew up in the limelight, scrutinized by friend and foe. With the outbreak of the war, Sveta found a taste of freedom with the snipers. For Zhanna, her place in the military was the only thing she could be proud of, giving her a tie to the place she called home. With the grace of others looming over her head, Zhanna had only one chance to be more than the blood inside her veins and the prayer on her lips. But then the Nazis invaded the Motherland. Tasked with reaching the Allies by her father, Sveta once more found herself a political pawn. But she wouldn't go alone. Friend and comrade Zhanna joined her in their flight from Russia. But with the Eastern Front crumbling, the girls found themselves at the mercy of America for a way home. And that way home meant learning to jump with the Airborne. They were already soldiers. How hard could that be? For Zhanna, she may be able to embrace the company of those around her. But for Sveta, the daughter of a man who represented everything the Allies worked against in the Bolshevik Revolution, it may be too difficult. * * * * Title Inspiration: "Death to the German invaders!
