In 1946, war-weary Rose Grantham leaves the grim, ravaged streets of London on a whim, hoping to rediscover who she is and where she came from. 

Mousehole is a pretty little village in Cornwall with a turbulent past and undercurrent of betrayal, grief and destruction beyond the sparkling blue of the sea and the whitewashed cottages. For Rose, it offers the promise of anonymity, rest and renewal.

Or, so she thought.

As she investigates deeper into the mysteries of the past, and experiences her first taste of love, she finds that her quiet journey of self-discovery may be much more than she had once anticipated.

The Shadow of the Watchtower by xkyneidk
25 parts Ongoing
This novel is a tense and atmospheric historical adventure, filled with twists and unexpected alliances. The dark and stormy backdrop of coastal Wales adds a gothic mood, while the plot is driven by characters who harbor personal tragedies and secret ambitions. The mystery of the watchtower builds steadily, with the crumbling old structure serving as a metaphor for the decaying moral order and hidden betrayals of the town's society. Set in Carreg Dun, a fictional port town on the coast of Wales. The town is perched on cliffs, with narrow cobbled streets, half-timbered houses, and a looming stone watchtower that has been abandoned for generations. The nearby moors and wild coastline lend a windswept, isolated feel, and the sea plays a large role in both the economy and the atmosphere of the novel. The time period, 1682, is in the heart of the Restoration era, shortly after the English Civil War, with tensions between royalists, parliamentarians, and smugglers creating a volatile political backdrop.
Marmalade's Love Potion by brightwitchbrews
56 parts Complete
In the final days of autumn, a young princess climbs her favourite tree clutching a folded star of paper to her aching heart. Contained within its crisp lines are recountings of her dreams and darings... and a plea that she might, at last, be welcomed home. With a kiss for luck, she tosses her star to the southbound winds, and stumbles her way to a crumbling cottage in the deep woods. Years pass and the constellations spin, her pleas have gone unanswered. The princess grows, and her uncertainties are buried beneath the gentle earth of spurned hopes. It is now, when she has almost forgotten how to wish on morning stars, that an invitation of smoke and dream light arrives, carried on horseback by soldiers of a different kingdom; the Dark Moon Ball might prove her salvation. She does not yet know that love is an exquisite, wretched thing and that wishes are fickle as wisp light. She does not yet know that paths of magic have their own sense of poetry, and walking them presses footprints into the deepest sands of self, remaining even as the stars and seasons turn. She does not yet know that home is where you keep your north star.
