When tragedy hits Genevieve's life at 15, how will this multicultural British teen adjust to the changes in her life. All the rules, restriction and faith that her parents have set up is turned upside down. With her brother in a different city, there is only so much he can do to comfort his little sister and guide her whilst he is at university studying. 

Genevieve now has free reign to do as she pleases; will she do so cautiously or recklessly. With her best friend Tiny, brother Mike, her family doctor, Donald Fredrick and all her new misadventures will Eve learn to navigate herself away from making things harder for herself or will new found attention have her heading straight down a path her now deceased Christian parents would not approve. 

Follow Genevieve (otherwise known as Eve) as she experiences a lot of firsts and make some important decisions while trying to find out who she is without interference from her once overbearing mother. 

A lot of firsts. New relationships. Old relationships. Loss. Big decisions. Newly found freedom.

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K

Best Decision, Not Chosen

23 parts Complete Mature

A positive test is always supposed to be something good; it's written in its name. But the plus sign was all it took for Milly to know her life was over. Milly was never the star student or model daughter. She wasn't the person others wanted around, in fact, she was the girl who always found herself in trouble. This time she is facing the ultimate punishment for a teen: unwanted pregnancy. It didn't take long for the world she knew to tumble down and be crushed into a million pieces with her still in it. The people who should have supported her have all turned away. With no parents, no father for her unborn child, and no place to call home. Left with nothing, Milly must find a way to survive in a world that despises her.
