  A dead business partner brings back an old rival and to save himself from death on the gallows, Tommy must find an escaped duchess. The arbitrariness of the world brings him out of his bitterness and forces him to make decisions away from business.
In addition, disturbing turmoil reigns around the Peaky Blinders empire, caused by the well-known gang of thieves 'the forty elephants'.

  × In this story, Tommy's trauma from the war and the many lives he had to take is intensely discussed. 
But it is also about the power of love, grief, new opportunities and family. We follow Tommy through the years until we get to the point where our story begins, because I don't want to write along the series. Get ready to follow Tommy through a new adventure. Maybe he'll find peace in the end? ×

Gun metal and Daisies (Thomas Shelby) by wordless-writing

Dorothy Monroe is a petite woman with a heart too big for her chest. She's pure, kind, she looked at the world and determined all the colours of nature were miracles and needed to be remembered. She's loved photography ever since her father brought a camera home and even had a gift with the newly designed lenses ever since she could wrap her small hands around the clunks of metal. Thomas Shelby: gangster; and war hero; he reads the devils script as if it were the morning newspaper - the list will go on. I don't need to say much more, you already know him. The Shelby family, as part of Tommy's expansion plan, bought a large area of the woods on the outskirts of Small Heath, far away from the Birmingham smog, there they built safe houses and kept heavy machinery; maybe even once they kept a large crate of stolen guns, supposedly belonging to the Government. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, who stumbled around the woods (a bulky camera in hand), she had explored the woods many times, taking photos of all the things that shined bright enough, but had never come across the peculiar buildings that held many dangers. That is, of course, until she knocks upon one of the doors, ready to give an earful to whoever had built over this precious patch of land, only to come face to face with one Thomas Shelby. -loosely follows the plot of season 1- *disclaimer* I do not own the Peaky Blinders or any of Steven Knights characters, only the story of Dorothy and her own plot line. This trope is cliche and overused, but idc, I like it.

The Balls in Our Courts [F.SxO.CxT.S] by galaxyofnowhere

"You see, Amelia," Tommy Shelby asserted, his form resting against the desk, a cigarette poised between his index and thumb. "Under this roof, everything is mine... including you. It's been that way, and it always will be." Amelia swallowed hard, her fists tightening. "You've profited off me for years, yet you've offered nothing in return!" "I've given you all that you deserved, Amelia," Tommy replied, coolly. At 15, Amelia Clarke officially exhausted her parents attempts at creating a perfect daughter, and so they shipped her off to England in hopes an old business partner could whip her into shape. Where others saw a nuisance, Tommy saw an opportunity to add to his growing assets. Bad at manners, but exceptional at tennis, Amelia became one of Tommy Shelby's biggest financial gains, and he would do anything to protect it. *Main Character starts at 15, but she gets older. No Adultxunderaged material. [F.SxO.C] Eventual [T.SxO.C]

I do not own any of the characters except for Annabelle, Joanne, Paola, Madeline and Will. Since I am no fan of unrealistically fast developing relationships, this will be a "slow burn" fan fiction. *WARNING* incredibly slow burn.

blue velvet, t.s by lolitaadaydreams

she was young, much too young for him, much too young for it to be moral but thomas shelby wasn't a man of many morels not in the general sense anyways, they say opposites attract but tommy could swear it on the bible that had they met under other circumstances that he wouldn't have touched her perhaps out of respect but deep down it was more so out of fear, she was the devil wrapped up in angel wings more like him than he could have ever imagined. a wise woman one said the only thing strong enough to blind a man like thomas was love; but his lola wasn't like grace not one bit. broken in a way only he could understand. this is a reright of Tommy Shelbys last love with barely any of the sadness, the turmoil the anguish, tommy shelby isn't a man who can promise much in the way of love or kindness and granted it's hard to love the man sometimes; a man plagued by his own desires. tommy shelby, the definition of an anti-hero // i'm not gonna be mentioning much of grace i want to allow tommy to have his own romance without grace being bought up 24/7, god knows i hate that bitch 'end of season 3 onwards'
