The Princess and I
Elizabeth has studied for many years now and is finally ready for her first courting season. She has it all figured out: she wants to marry a wealthy man who will love her and give her many children. She's got her eye on her brother's best friend, Duke Liam Arlington, the eternal bachelor. And it soon turns out that Elizabeth has caught his attention as well. Their marriage will follow soon... or won't it? We all know about the Victorian Era. The many balls and social events. Splendid dresses. London's famous courting season. This love story is a different kind of love story, though not less real. It's about a love that was and perhaps still isn't as accepted as it should be, but therefore not less powerful or wonderful. This story is about one of the most important battles in one's life: the battle to love whoever one wants.Complete

Stranger on the Cliff (ONC 2021)
The cliff stands, unbroken and solid, a line of darkness against the blue of morning. Tav stares at the man whose dark hair moves in the briskness of the spring breeze.

Octavius Kennerly woke up with what he thought was an epic hangover. That's his excuse for how long it took him to realize he wasn't in his own bed. Or his own reality. Now he has to work out what happened, and decide what to do about the handsome man who seems so interested in him, but doesn't actually exist. Oh yes, and prevent the man's vile aunt from marrying him off to the man's sister. ONC 2021 Participant Prompt: A storm is raging outside, but you're cozy at home reading a good story.

Pride And Prejudice, The Sequel
I have just finished reading Pride and Prejudice for the 100th time, and I really wanted to see how Elizabeth and Darcy handle their married life, so I decided to write my own sequel. This is just to satisfy my own wild side, I have never been to Great Britain (but I would love to!), and I know very little of the 19th century traditions. *I appreciate all the corrections I get on the culture/timeline/location/language/plotline dearly and would do my best to fix my mistakes in the story. I only request that you put a smiley face emoji at the end of a correction 😀. It is not a requirement, but it would be highly appreciated.Complete
Husband Wanted (HC #1)
Elizbeth Humphrey wants a husband. Her expectations are not outlandish; all she asks is that he be reasonably handsome, reasonably wealthy and completely kind. Her brothers have offered their assistance, and it's given her hope that perhaps there is a man out there who might want her for a wife. But alas, the first man she meets after recommitting to the battle against spinsterhood is reasonably handsome, reasonably naked and completely soaked through and stranded on their front steps. He also has a head-wound and no memory of who he is, but Elizabeth Humphrey has larger mysteries to solve; namely, the mystery of who she might marry. Book 1 of the Humphrey Chronicles!
