Marie Roussin is an orphan from France, living in French Colonial Louisiana with her husband and two young sons. She is happy and content, until a French officer's arrival shakes up the stable ground she has finally built a life on. From the moment of Benjamin Dumont de Montigny's arrival, Marie is captivated by him in a way that is more unsettling than exciting, and yet a strange mixture of both. Tyrannical commanders, native uprisings and unimaginable loss will either bring them together or separate them - forever.

Daughters of the King (Completed)
{WATTYS 2020 WINNER} {FEATURED BOOK} Paris, 1663. 500 girls selected by King Louis XIV embark on a journey across the seas from their homeland. Each is given a dowry, and the expectation that they are to marry a French settler, in order to increase the population of New France. They are the historic Daughters of the King, or "les filles du roi." Eighteen-year-old Celeste Dubois is a free-spirited, educated and headstrong girl. She comes from a wealthy Parisian family that has squandered their money and is subsequently forced to journey to New France. However, Celeste doesn't plan on marrying a complete stranger. She hopes to use the dowry and the free voyage as a way to escape the poverty and social ranks of Paris. Matters are complicated when against her will, she falls in love. Romantic, kind and stunningly beautiful Lorraine Leblanc is a girl from a large family with children to spare. Unlike Celeste, she happily dreams of the day she will meet her future husband in New France. When she marries a mysterious widower with two young children of his own and still reeling after his broken heart, she realizes that married life isn't all she had hoped it would be, and begins to question her new husband's complicated past. - Wattpad Picks Blast to the Future Past list 2018 - The 50 Best Wattpad Stories of 2018/19 by Design Wizard - 2018 Youngblood Awards Winner (Romance) - 2018 True North Awards 2nd place for Historical Fiction and 2nd place Truly Canadian special category award - Featured by Wattpad Historical Fiction profile under Kings, Courtships and Empires, Young Adult Fiction profile under Love, Actually and Romance profile under Time will Tell *Please be aware that since this book covers the colonial period, it does contain sensitive themes of racism and violence that readers will find disturbing.

A geniuses exciting life (male reader x Marinette)
Paris, an incredible City in Europe that's recently been under attack of akumatized supervillains. Luckily two mysterious superheroes called Ladybug and Cat Noir always save the day and put a stop to them. All this has gotten the attention of a young genius called Y/N L/N, who lived in America before he moved to Paris alone. He of course has hidden all his life that he is a prodigy in all aspects of electronics, math, science and the like. Only his parents know, but they don't really care that much. They mostly just accept anything going on with their son, because he made the impossible possible since his first real invention, and they learned not to question it. Our main character is now ready for his new start at the "College" Françoise Dupont, and can't wait to start a journey of heroism as well. Just what heights can a person reach, just with his brain power? ("Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir" is made by Thomas ASTRUC and is owned, as well as published by Disney. Y/N is the only real character written by me. Cover by Rina Rina on Pinterest https://www.pinterest.de/pin/aa-madison-stuff--4574037115417394/ )
