The Queen Of Arrows
** Marian, a thieving nobleman's daughter with too big a heart, meets Robin Hood, a daring thief with a huge ego. Will they be able to overcome pain, longing, and, finally the cruel Sheriff of Nottingham? Or will the legend end before it begins? ** "Hope, be it never so faint, bringeth a gleam into darkness, like a little rushlight that costeth but a groat." ― Howard Pyle, The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood - In the heart of Nottinghamshire, the noblewoman Maid Marian has a secret double life as a thief by night. She steals from the chests of embezzlers and distributes her loot to the poor. When she crosses paths with the self-proclaimed King of Thieves, past and present collide, soon forcing her to choose between loyalty to the crown and the law - or rebellion. But it's not only the dangerous raids that swirl her life: soon she is torn between her feelings for the charming Robin Hood and the honourable Guy of Gisborne. Will Marian be able to bring justice to the kingdom? Will she lose her heart to the King of Thieves or will the righteous Guy of Gisborne be able to preserve her honour? In a story of love, courage and resistance, Marian's fate interweaves with the legends of Sherwood Forest. **** Wattys2023 GERMAN WINNER + Special Price for Most Engaging World Cover/Banner by Thinkerling *** 🥇1st Place Literary Book Award - Adventure 🥇1st Place Lavender Awards - Historical Fiction 🥇 1st Place Ambrosia Awards - Best Cover 🥇 1st Place Ambrosia Awards - Historical Fiction 🥇 1st Place Phoenix Award - Best Cover 🥈 2nd Place - Tricolour Triennial Awards - Historical Fiction 🥈 2nd Place - The Wonder Awards - Fanfiction 🥈 2nd Place - The Nebula Awards - Historical Fiction 🥈 2nd Place - The Aster Awards - General Fiction ****Completa

At the age of sixteen, their friend was forced to leave their friends behind and go with their father and sibling after the death of their mother. Alex d'Auvergne snuck away to the Crusades to serve first as a healer and then as a warrior before being knighted by Richard the Lionheart.

Appalled at the changes made by the sheriff they sought to find one known as The Man in Black. Alex's honor, integrity, and vow to King Richard makes him stay in Nottingham to right the wrongs that he has already seen. It's only when the secrets are revealed that changes can be made. I have this rated as mature but I would consider it to be more of an R rating.Completa
Change is Afoot
This was a follow on to my first ever attempt at fan fiction, Marian's Lessons in Love and I wrote this in 2010 having watched the BBC series of Robin Hood This story is set somewhere in the early part of season 2 of Robin Hood and is inspired by Guy & Marian. These are my own ideas on what should have happened between them. No copyright infringement intended - I did not create these characters I have just borrowed them for this fiction. This story starts five months after Marian's lessons in love. Guy and Marian have been married for 9 weeks. Guy has met in secret with Robin three times to discuss how they can overpower Vasey, but continues to work for Vasey as his Master at Arms.Completa
A California Girl in Nottingham's Court
Aylaina MacLeod is a time traveler whose inaugural journey catapults her not to her intended destination, but deep into the 12th century. Landing squarely in the heart of Sherwood Forest, she finds herself thrust into a version of the Robin Hood legend that defies everything she previously knew. As Aylaina is drawn into the fold of the Merry Men, she must navigate the complexities of a past she is attempting to reshape. Her primary objective is clear: to right the wrongs of history by altering the course of events that lead to tragedy. I've reimagined the iconic figures from the 2006 BBC Robin Hood series, offering a fresh take on our beloved characters: Sir Guy of Gisborne: Moving away from a purely dark, Twilight-esque portrayal, this version of Guy is a deeply tortured and brooding soul. However, upon meeting Aylaina, a softer, hidden side of his personality begins to emerge, I try to stay true to the nuance and depth originally brought to the screen by Richard Armitage. The Merry Men: The story captures the authentic voices and dynamics of the series' core cast, immersing the reader in the camaraderie and high-stakes environment of Sherwood Forest. Note from the Author (Jeannie): This work serves as an expansion and reimagining, specifically incorporating the narrative arc of the final two episodes of the BBC series, "Something Worth Fighting For." I acknowledges the original creation rights belong to the BBC and Tiger Aspect.Completa

A Flower for Guy #Wattys2021
Sir Guy of Gisborne comes back from the Holy Land, on his conscience the knowledge of having killed Marian. Appointed Sheriff of Nottingham in the place of Vaisey, he struggles to find a way to make up for his past wrongdoings, but it's a very hard task. Guy meets again - after many years - Lady Violet of Chetwood, a childhood friend of Robin Hood; the widow of a man who mistreated her, the young woman has returned to her ancestral mansion and has always helped her friend Robin since he has been declared an outlaw, and therefore she's not well-disposed towards Guy, whom she knows since she was a child. Complicated dynastic events, however, will force her to approach precisely the black-clad knight for a marriage of convenience... [My heartfelt thanks to @JeannieGisborne for her invaluable help in correcting this story; pls check her lovely stories about Guy and the Robin Hood BBC fandom, I highly recommend them] WARNING: If you're reading this story on any other site than WATTPAD, you are on an illegal site and you are at great risk of malware attacks.
