1770s revolutionary war

First book in the Against the Stars Trilogy 

When Virginia "Ginny" Miller moved from England to the Americas in the 1775 she expected a fresh start. All she wanted to do was put her life in England behind her. But when she arrives at America, she never expects what she finds. 

Arriving in America, Ginny is shocked to find that her only friend, Abigail Everhart, has abandoned her. Alone, in a strange new place, Ginny cannot help but wonder what is going to happen to her life. 

When Ginny befriends Benjamin Eby, the son of the owner of the general store, her life finally takes a peak for the better. Along with another new friend, Celia Roser, Ginny begins to see all life has to offer.

But war with England is looming and lines are being drawn. Ben and Celia both are patriots well  Ginny's parents are strict loyalists and disapprove of her friendship with Ben.  And to make matters worse Celia, is from an English family turned patriot, something Ginny’s parents are horrified by. 

Desperate, her parents try to get her to befriend people like Lucy Winslow, or (heavens forbid) Bella Kersey, who come from “good English families”. But it isn't till her parents start introducing "gentlemen" into the picture, that Ginny realizes how truly torn her heart is. 

Ginny is stuck trying to figure out how to live life with all its up and downs.  She feels as though her soul is being ripped in to.  Should she follow her parents, and be loyal to the country she once called home; or should she become independent like the country her heart is rooted in?All Rights Reserved

*NO sexual content* "Who else knows about this place?" Hazel asks looking over my gaming system while Abby looks adoringly at my books. She is a major reader just like me. "Caydon, Dad, You, Abby, and I." I absently say while going through my mail. One in paticurly catches my eye. I have not a clue whom it's from. All it has on it is my address. Hmm, guess that one will get opened first. I pull out a business looking folded piece of paper. I turn it around to see that it says: 'For Sophia-Grace James's eyes only.' I look around to see Abby reading a book in one of the bean bags and Hazel playing Call of Duty: World at War on the Xbox. I unfold the paper to read what it says. What I read makes my blood run cold. Dear Grace, I know you are wondering who I am, I promise that you will find out soon enough. I want you to meet me Thursday, July 8th 2012 by the baseball field, behind the concession shack closest to the woods at 9pm Come Alone.

Hunted Series - The R Rated Chapters by Corinder

But I am also uploading them here to be read freely as they come up. :) This is for the Prequel, Hunted & Hunter The appeareance of two injured, sick and panicked non-pack werewolves, known as mutts, in New York is usually not a cause for alarm. It's easily dealt with. But two female mutts, appearing out of no where, already months into their changes, this is a cause for alarm. There should only be two female werewolves in the world- Elena and her five year old daughter. So where have these two come from? Elizabeth, an Australian, is one of those new mutts, and running from her past is something she's keen on doing. Even her mind's in on denial- she remembers nothing since coming to America months back, except flashes of torture, torment, and her own stubborn will to survive when others haven't. Yet somehow she can trust the American werewolf pack, though she can't understand why, and allows them to offer her and her friend safety from those who would bring her back to pain, torture and to a man who still haunts her with the name 'Master'. He isn't the only man that haunts her though. Someone else in the pack seems to remember her too. Jeremy, the Alpha of the American werewolf pack, and Elena, the alpha-in-training, are brought face to face with a new Alpha, his pack and his attempt to claim America, kill off all the pack werewolves, and to capture Elena and her daughter for himself. Only with the assistance of 'Anne', as Elizabeth now calls herself, and Pav can they know where to start looking.

"Shut it!" Chills shoot down my spine as if someone just dumped a bucket of ice water down the back of my shirt. What is he doing? I know he can get angry sometimes, but he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me in public, would he? I wait and wait for him to do something, but he does nothing because we get interrupted by a loud voice that sounds through the quiet of the night. "Hey!" I dare to open my eyes a little to see where it's coming from. A tall blond guy, carrying grocery bags is standing a couple yards away. "Yes, I'm talking to you! Step away from the girl right now!" *** The story of two broken souls- Madeleine Evans, a college student in an abusive relationship, and Elias Sanders, a soldier suffering from PTSD- trying to pick up their own and each other's pieces.
