A lot of people imagined so many things about Rosalind LeRoy. She must have been a wild heiress or another bombshell blonde with nothing to fill her head. Some supposed she must have had so many torrid affairs with actors and toured Europe with the next Howard Hawks on her arm.
What a lot of people didn't know was that she was on a leash just like any other studio employee. LeRoy Pictures owned her and her image, and her Daddy made perfectly clear that she was to front the best, effectively spotless reputation.
Still, she knew how to have fun, and she was just coming into an age where she was ready to give Charles LeRoy the biggest run for his money.

The Expansion of the Universe {Completed}
"My name's Elijah, by the way. It's nice to meet you, window-girl." She liked that name: Elijah. "I doubt you're even listening, but, look, I'm not here to cause problems, you know? I'm just here to chat. It can get lonely when we segregate ourselves into our own little world. I mean, maybe you like it in there," he continued, as she stared at the door separating them, "but, in case you don't, I'd like to offer my company." Instead of panicking, Liza could only focus on four words he'd said. 'Our own little world.' How had he known? She was in her own little world, consisting of her, her dog, the condo, and now, maybe . . .? Her voice was barely a croak when she spoke to him for the first time. "I'm listening." *** A horribly tragedy left Liza Garner tucked inside her condo, the only safe place she knew, terrified of the outside world and the people within it. Especially men. A change in living brought Elijah Harris into a nice new neighborhood, and he'd never been afraid of knocking on others' doors and introducing himself. Especially if a pretty woman was on the other side. This is a story about mental health, the amazing impact certain individuals can have on one's personal journey, and how making progress-no matter how seemingly insignificant-is always impressive. *** PLEASE NOTE: Rated mature for language, topics, and detailed descriptions of gore.

Ignition & Heartblood
Please forgive you desiring Wild Ones, Guys, Dolls, Rebels Without A Cause On The Waterfront, Men and Giants of East Of Eden! Because here you can read the story how the shy James "Jimmy" Dean falls in love with his alluring idol Marlon Brando. It's the (and not always serious..) fantasy of the storyteller, how it could have happened between the two actors (um, maybe...) and what happens if true feelings can come into play. Nevertheless, i would like to mention that i am a big fan of both actors myself and tried to capture the basic character traits of both characters in the best possible way with my certainly imperfect knowledge. I hope that I was more or less successful in this, at least I have fun writing this story. :-) Now I wish you a lot of fun reading, shaking your heads, cheering and smiling - also thank you very much for doing all this to yourself. It means a lot to me. - and, phew, English isn't my mother tounge, so please bear with me! Don't stop dreaming as you'll live forever. Your crazy, lovely, feelings.Complete
