1940s acceptance comingofage girlscouts sweet

Fayard and Namazzi Clark regretted having a child. Not because they didn't love their daughter. Not because they couldn't handle the task. No, it was because in 1945 they were watching their baby girl suffer. 

When little Armantine Azalee comes home with a flyer for the girl scouts her mother decides its worth a go. Thus in January of 1945 Amma had been signed up for girl scouts. Little Amma loved the girl scouts and Namazzi and Fayard realized that thanks to Juliette Gordon Low freedom wasn't so far away.

 Join Amma Clarke from Daisy to Ambassador in this coming of age journey as she grows into womanhood in a society that treats her like filth over her skin tone.

Note: All I can find on the levels in the 1940s is that The Daisy's had not been introduced so I'm going to go with brownies-ambassadorAll Rights Reserved

Corrupted, Damaged, And Beautiful by CL2121

Daisy is the soft-hearted mother of one with a dark past and an ex husband she's running from. She's spent the past six months building a new life for her and her daughter, Hope, trying to blend into the world around them. Her memories are tainted, her delicate heart is shattered, and her innocence took advantage of. She doesn't want to be found, she doesn't want to be recognised, and she certainly isn't interested in falling in love again. Especially with the hot, panty-melting, toe-curling irresistible CEO Nate. A spontaneous coffee trip has her heart thumping, shattering, and aching in a whirlwind of emotions after coming face to face with him. He makes her panties wet, but her body sweat with panic. She doesn't believe her jaded, corrupted, damaged self is worthy of love, never mind with a gorgeous as sin man like Nate. Yet, she can't stop thinking about him. Nate has been heartbroken once before, betrayed by those he loves, and secretly desperate to find that one woman who can turn his world upside down for the better. He's practically a billionaire with his own confectionary company, but he still feels like a damaged puzzle with lost pieces. Until he meets her. Her sapphire blue eyes were mesmerizing pulling him in a trance, her petite curvy body was delicious, and that sweet angelic voice was a melody to his ears. Damn he wanted her, and he intended to make sure he did. However, the closer he gets the more he learns about the fragile Daisy, can they both survive a rollercoaster of events, emotions and get their happy ever after?

She's With The Band (Warren Rojas x Fem!OC) [DJTS] by 7silverspringss

☆THE UNTOLD STORY OF AMERICA'S FAVORITE LOVERGIRL: CHRISSY BERRY☆ "I mean I knew he was interested, but I wasn't sure if it was romantic or not. I just assumed it was purely sexual, but it was Warren fucking Rojas. I was okay with it." Christine Wallace finds herself moving across the country to live with the hottest rising band of the late 70s, The Six, and gets thrown around in all their drama, as well as her own. She gains icon status as a talent and worldwide heartthrob, Chrissy Berry, which means permanently leaving behind her old life and embracing the berry of it all. She's happy to do it, but her stubborn best friend isn't too thrilled. It's a fun ride, sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll baby!!!! Excerpt from STAR Magazine, Apr 1981: Who Is BERRY? Everyone knows Chrissy Berry, but how did she come to be the famous rock journalist, style icon, and worldwide heartthrob we know her as today? She has dated some of the most famous names, including but not limited to, Bill Wyman, Robert Plant, and most notoriously, Warren Rojas, but how did she end up there? And what's all this talk about LIVING with The Six after moving from Kenosha?? I thought she was a Zeppelin girl from Greenwich?! Speculation is as far as we get with her, as the only public statements she's made since 1978 are strictly business. ~~~ Mostly based off the show because I'm not done with the book and the show has a simpler storyline. BUT chuck (Williams) still died in Vietnam and Eddie is still Loving because Roundtree is so SquarePants coded.. no Pete though, sorry queens (except for brief mentioning of a brother from Ed.) please don't judge me this is my first xOC fic. Started April 2023 Ended November 2024 2025 note: this is the best thing I've ever written. please love it. I love it. love y'all xoxo -Cory

The Golden Soldier (Call of Duty: WW2 Fanfiction) by brontideandsough

Avaline Baker is a young woman on a camping trip with friends when she decides to go into a museum that will change her life forever. Somehow transported into the future, Ava finds herself at the barrel tip of Nazi German soldier. Transported to their camp as prisoner, Ava is lost and confused as to what, where, and who she is with...the how part is the most antagonizing. Shortly after being saved by two American men, Ava discovers she's been placed at the center of World War Two. Surrounded by warfare and American men who have strict mindsets about women in the the 1940's, the 21-year-old feels like she has no hope of surviving. To even have a chance, Ava has to prove that just because she's a woman, doesn't mean she isn't capable of fighting to survive like the rest of them. Ava finds herself stuck in 1944, with "strange" technology called a cell phone, no way of charging it, and no way of getting home. In the midst of a gruesome and horrifying war, she finds herself questioning more than just sanity of the time period, but even her own. Hopefully, with careful and calculating steps, Ava will survive the blistering cold winters, the first-hand experience of a war, and developing a difficult bond with the men of 1st Platoon. --•--•--•-- This is a work of fan-fiction, which means I don't own practically anything. Except for Aveline Baker and some scenes. Will be based off of/follow the campaign. This work has content pertaining to difficult aspects of WW2 including blood and gore; swearing/harsh language; sexual/crude comments and actions; German POW camps; etc. Please DO NOT READ if you aren't comfortable or have too strong opinions on things related to WW2. It's a fictional story and, thus, should be treated like it. On flip side, there will humor. Especially from Zussman- we all like him. And don't forget moments from hardass Pierson...those will get interesting too. ;) ~Started on September 1st, 2018~ ~Finished September 1st, 2019~

Far From Perfect by AngelicaGabriela1991

Far From Perfect. That's what I am. It's what I've always been. How do I even begin to see myself as anything different when all I've ever been is the fat girl? I just want to be loved and accepted. It's all I've ever wanted. And all I've ever needed. I didn't think it was possible to have either of those until I met Nate Carter. Nate swooped into my life like a wrecking ball, rattling the very walls I built around myself to keep anyone from ever getting in. And without me realizing it, he knocked them all down one by one and did what no one was ever able to do. He taught me to see me. The real me. But will that be enough to keep what is growing between us alive? × Highest Rankings × #1 in Bodypositive #1 in Selfacceptance #2 in Bodyimage #2 Bodyimageissues #2 Self-esteem #6 Firstkiss #13 Outcast

Playing The Game by just-A_potato

Not every blonde is stupid. In the South if you're a beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed girl high expectations are made. Either you're not extremely smart, so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. Or you are smart and you just pretend to be dumb so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. All her life Avery Skinner has been told what to do and how to do it- by everyone. By her mother, the girls she calls friends, the guys in school, teachers, family, even Mark the mailman. Needless to say, she's sick of it. Its time Avery took control of her life or at least get a firm grip on the sucker. She's loved football ever since she was a little girl. Yet she could never play because ladies aren't supposed to do such barbaric things. Especially in the South- unless its a rodeo and you're wearing those ridiculously tight outfits that show you're navel or showing you can hold your liquor. Avery has longed to be on the field, throwing the ball instead of cheering on the team her dad coaches that can't seem to win. Then her best friend Austin forces Avery to and for sometime everyone is fooled. But the truth can only be hidden for so long. The moment the townsfolk of Stonehenge, Alabama learned it was a girl under that helmet, was the moment true colors showed. It hasn't been easy and it won't get any better but Avery is here to play. * Avery is going to face REAL life problems, and not nice people. She's going to deal with sexual harassment, mean words, rude people, pregnancy, injuries, steroids, etc.. In this story I want to exemplify how sexist and cruel humans can be. There will be hard moments, but I want to put it out there because it IS a serious problem. Harsh language and such will be present. You have been warned, don't read it then complain.

True Love/ Raura by lovinraura_

A/N, Warning: this book is so old and I made it when I didn't know how to write properly, so it's kind of ridiculous and not logical. There's grammar mistakes and stupid lines and this isn't my writing anymore!!! I've grown out of it and you can check out my most recent books if you want something good to read. If you wanna read this too that's fine, but don't be surprised at the amount of cringey ridiculousness in it. Proceed!💗 The hockey player and the cheerleader . Now from the movies and books you've read, you'd think that this would be the 'IT' couple but if you told them this ,they'd think you're crazy. He was hot ,he was cute and maybe even sweet sometimes but he was also a player ,a jerk ,the one boy at your high school that you call the typical "Bad boy ". Laura on the other hand was popular but she was very sweet .Her popularity and reputation on being a cheerleader, didn't stop her from being nice to everyone.She was that social butterfly. So they were opposites .In some ways at least .Why did they hate each other? Well it had to do with a little incident when they were only 5 .The day they first meet.They now have that sexual tension and the fact that they were both hot didn't help . They also have quite a history with each other from their family's being friends AND hanging out in the same friend group (which leaded to ALOT of teasing from friends )but the one thing they didn't know was that ,they would make a whole lot more history .The history of their lives . ...Read and find out how two enemies fall in love......Sexual tension? Yes. Cliche ? 100% . Romance ? You know it.You might want to seat down for this ;) ~~~~ If you're going to check out this book I'd suggest you also read my other book The Moon and The Sun as well! It's definitely an upgrade from this one :) -- COMPLETE ✓
