1800s bittersweet cleanread comingofage courage growingup hope nineteenthcentury paralleluniverse victorian

Sam Paine knew exactly two things: That Mrs. Oliver was in the family way, and that the bump on his head was there to remind him never to congratulate expectant mothers again. It wasn't the first time someone had had an adverse reaction to something Sam said, but it was the first time a chain of gossip ended with a report card burning a hole in his pocket, some yarn, and an idea-an idea that maybe Sam was bound for more than counting change.

Everyone's Punching Bag by TamiCraig

Sam couldn't pinpoint how or when it happened, but sometime during her college years in the 1990s, she became everyone's punching bag. She also couldn't figure out why. She didn't know if she invited mistreatment or if the people surrounding her were all just cruel. Sam's so-called girlfriends put her through the wringer, yet somehow the men in her life treated her even worse. It's no wonder she became jaded and distrustful. Unfortunately, no amount of mind-altering substances would take the pain away. Could she ever gain the confidence to stand up to the bullies and break the cycle of abuse? Were there actually any good people out there, and if yes, how could she find them? Did she even want to keep looking? Or should she just put up a wall to protect herself from the world?

The Jones Family - it is not that simple by FreeThoughts271

This is another one-shot collection. It's about Sam's and Penny's experiences as parents from different perspectives - and as the title suggests, things can go haywire sometimes...I hope you enjoy reading. I'll write the stories as they come to my mind, but I will insert and upload them as they fit in time - this means that the chapters won't appear at the end as usual, but somewhere in the middle. In the end, the collection should result in a (hopefully) coherent story. The numbering before the titles are the chapter numbers and give you an idea of where we are in the story and what is still missing. I have no rights to the images from the series, the series itself or its characters and I am only writing for fun. I use Google to translate.

Wolf Love and Tiger Strength by SmlAlwaysOriginal

Part 3 of the Bites and Stripes series In book one we meet three men who have to change how their world works so that they can be safe and happy. In book two we follow Peter and find out that no matter who his father was he is a better man and one worth loving. Here in book Three we'll find out what happens to the rest of the kids and we'll see if happily ever after is possible for everyone. Excerpt: They were cute I could admit it. Even if I wanted to roll my eyes at them. Peter and Mattie had already been through so much not to mention my little sister. I looked over at Olivia and couldn't believe we hadn't seen it. How had we not seen it. We'd been with her the day it happened how had we been so distracted we hadn't seen it? I wasn't sure I'd be able to forgive myself for that. Da stood up and handed Libby to me. "Keep an eye on her I need to check Samantha's diaper I think she's getting a little ripe." I laughed and looked down at my little sister. Nothing like that would ever happen to her I didn't car what I had to do. Olivia was the last sister I failed. I rocked Libby in my arms and wondered who'd be next, would it be me or Josie or even Olivia? Addy and Nelly were too young even if they did meet someone, they wouldn't be allowed to finish their mating. When da came back from changing Samantha's diaper he switched girls so that Libby could get her own diaper checked. Samantha, such a cutie had already lost her mother and father to a bunch of hate mongering humans. I knew that they still existed, but I didn't realize they still killed our kind. She'd be loved and included among us easily.

Be Rude but Love Me | ✔ by laika_c

She was all he needed. He knew it. But she didn't. ••• I can see the moment I've pushed him over the edge and he starts to get mad. "Oh, fuck you, Graham! As if you would understand what I'm going through." I jab my finger once more at his chest, ignoring the pain once again. "It's exactly because you knew I would understand that you opened up and just told me. " He catches my hand in a tight grip and comes right into my face. "Then maybe I was wrong to!" He shouts. ••• "How easy it is to be totally wrong about people - to see one tiny part of them and confuse it for the whole." - Before I Fall, Lauren Oliver.

BACK AGAIN by stuck-on-repeat_Love

Growing up, she'd been quiet. That hasn't changed. Growing up, her brother was around. Now, he's not. Simple as that. But it doesn't really feel that way, does it? Especially not when childhood friends find each other in adulthood. And 𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑐𝑖𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 not when that friend knew your brother. Is there anyway to tell if this will bring more pain? Or if there will be...love.

Bed of Lies by chelsy_lea

They broke her trust. They broke his mind. But when the past claws its way back, survival isn't enough - vengeance demands blood. Victoria learned how to stay quiet. Grief became her shadow, guilt her constant companion. It whispered in her ear that she should have been the one to die instead. Not her mother. Never her mother. If she had, maybe her father wouldn't have walked away, leaving them to fend for themselves. But silence is a fragile shield-and when the past resurfaces, dragging her into a world she barely escaped, she realizes staying quiet won't save her this time. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, behind rage, behind the monster his past made him. Forged by cruelty, built by betrayal, and fueled by rage, he became the kind of man other monsters feared. Scars became his armor. Violence, his language. He doesn't believe in mercy-only vengeance. Especially for the man who made him this way. Victoria was everything he had been taught to avoid - soft yet unbreakable, damaged yet defiant. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own, a past carved into her bones, a war waged behind tired eyes. She saw through him in ways no one else had ever dared, and he hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. He was chaos wrapped in quiet fury, a storm threatening to consume everything in its path. And yet, when she looked at him, she didn't just see the monster - she saw the man who had once fought to hold on to his soul. But love between two broken people is never easy. It's volatile. Cruel. A constant push and pull, neither of them willing to surrender, both too damaged to truly hold on. The closer they get, the more dangerous the stakes become. Yet, for all the ways they fought against it, they kept coming back to each other.

I'm not great at writing descriptions, so I'll just say this: I hope you give the story a chance. It's something different I'm trying, and I really hope you enjoy it. Tropes: Age gap Second chance Forced marriage Unrequited love Melo-drama Single parent Happy ending Note: This is my first full-length book, so please forgive mistakes, over-explained parts, and areas that still need editing. It's just a hobby, not professional work. Some chapters have mature content-skip if you're not comfortable. Thanks for reading and supporting my work. Happy reading!

Love That Is Unconditional ✔️ by JungkooksArmyBag
