Blushing Spurs - RDR2 (Rerelease) by autrytonic

In the dying days of the Wild West, Kimberly Autry rides with the Van der Linde gang-a woman with a past as tangled as the outlaws she calls family. As Dutch's grand plans unravel, Kimberly finds solace in Arthur Morgan, a gunslinger battling his own doubts about the life they lead. But with betrayal festering in the ranks and the law closing in, love may not be enough to outrun the bloodshed that awaits them. From the dust-choked plains of Lemoyne to the storm-wracked shores of Guarma, this tale of loyalty, survival, and heartbreak weaves through the final days of an era. When the truth comes to light, who will be left standing-and what will be left of them? Inspired by Red Dead Redemption 2, this fanfiction delves deep into the Van der Linde gang's world, balancing high-stakes action with intimate, character-driven storytelling.

Ghosts of the Past [ RDR2 - Arthur Morgan ] by Kindcube

New chapters every Friday at 7pm GMT! When Arthur met Rosemary at the young age of 25, he was pretty much a goner. It seemed Arthur had a thing for kindly little women. Maybe because deep down all he really wanted was an honest life on a ranch, with a lady he could worship and provide for like a real man should. And in his short time with Rosemary he allowed himself to play make believe that that could ever happen. But like most good things in Arthur's life - that came to a crashing end when Dutch uplifted the gang from that town to move on again. But people from the past always have a way of showing up when you least expect it.

One Wrong Choice by PrimaryQ

This is a Red Dead Redemption 2 Fan-fic. Arthur Morgan x Female Y/n (Reader) Life is pretty simple as a rich woman. No, let me try that again, life is pretty simple as woman married to a rich man. Stay silent unless spoken too, dress with only the latest fashion, don't do anything unlady-like, and remain faithful to your husband. No matter what. Heaven forbid a happily married, high society woman of any respectability be found going against any of these rules. Good thing then, you are not a happily married woman; and when a group of outlaws makes a sudden appearance in your dreary city of Saint Denis, you happily break every single rule in the book. This story will not follow strictly along the lines of Red Dead Redemption 2 but I will do my best to do every character the justice they deserve. However I'm a sucker for happy endings so I will be adding my own spin on it. DISCLAIMER: I do not own rdr2 or any of its characters. This is a non-profit fan made story.

Joy & Woe - An Alternate RDR2 Story | Arthur Morgan x OC | by ponyboygrimes

[A Slow Burn Arthur Morgan x OC Story] ~ By 1897, Joyce Robbins is a petty criminal in her late 20s due to a series of unfortunate events - the common denominator for most like her, it seems. Having tragedy struck at a young age, Joyce finds herself plunged into the life of a single woman desperate for work and money to help provide for her and her siblings - and in this world, that only gives you about two options: stealing or selling yourself. So, she opted to steal. Simple memories she'd made long ago seem to determine her fate, however, as some familiar faces show up and completely alter her sullen trajectory. When a fateful meeting goes much differently than expected, Joyce is again left with two choices: die, or keep moving forward. So again, she opts for the latter. ~ [THIS STORY WILL INCLUDE MATURE CONTENT SUCH AS VIOLENCE, GORE, SEXUAL THEMES, ETC. THIS STORY USES CHARACTERS AND INSPIRATION FROM ROCKSTAR'S RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2 AS WELL AS ORIGINAL CHARACTERS.]
