Deanne is tall, and that makes her the brunt of everyone's jokes, ever since she was a child in grade school. Now, being 20 and 6-foot-7, the harassment still doesn't stop, even on a movie set. Thanks to her father, she was chosen to be an extra in Elvis Presley's new movie Kid Galahad. That means being close to and maybe even being friends with her six-year-long star-crush. This is too good to be true! She knows, though, that there's absolutely no chance with him because she's seven inches taller than he is, and he's a world-famous star who has a teen girlfriend who he met in Germany. No other woman has a chance with him, besides Joan Blackman, who plays his love interest in the movie, and who he is in love with. He also has another girlfriend Anita Wood. So, yes, Deanne doesn't have a chance. He has two girlfriends, he's in love with another woman, and... guys don't like tall girls.

Elvis is intrigued with this very tall girl who becomes his coworker on the movie set. She is kind, funny and extremely pretty, but she has a lack of self-esteem since she seems to be hassled and made fun of because of her height - no one sees the real her since her height masks it. Well, maybe he can do something about this so she can see herself as an incredible and beautiful individual, inside and out. Falling for her is a possibility, regardless of his teen girlfriend Priscilla, other girlfriend Anita Wood, and love for his co-star Joan.All Rights Reserved

Long overdue by natasharich2023

"Do others also have a crush they obsess over for four years, even when he completely ignores them? Probably not... at least not if they're sane." Natalie is thrilled to finally leave high school behind and start a new chapter in her life. She promises herself she won't be the same dumb teenager, obsessing over boys-specifically, one tall basketball player who never even spared her a glance. What began as an intense crush had slowly twisted into self-doubt and resentment over the years, as each ignored glance chipped away at her confidence. Now, she vows to cherish herself more, to be confident, and to never change for anyone else's approval. But what happens when the same guy she grew to hate, after four years of trying and failing to get his attention, ends up at the same university and, for the first time, calls her name?

Purple Blues [Elvis] by PurpleKorea134

When does a girl ever get the opportunity to meet her idol in person, even when they have passed away almost thirty years before she was born? Well, go back to when they lived, of course. Katelyn is sixteen years old and was born in the year 2005, yet she is obsessed with Elvis Presley and has listened and danced to nothing else all her life. Her grandmother Iris, who was sixteen in 1956 when Elvis was young and famous and is just as obsessed, raised her from infancy since her biological mother and father were in prison when she was born. Because of that, Katelyn is bullied. So she turns to Elvis. His music is soothing and fun and can instantly bring her into a good mood. A miracle happens, and she gets the chance to meet him in New York. Sure she becomes an icon because of her purple hair and a rumor that says she's from the future, but the real thing here is that she befriended her idol, is falling in love with him, and is trying to tell him information about his future that can save his life. Elvis is intrigued by this strange girl who says she's from the future, and who knows all his songs, even ones she claims hasn't come out yet. He finds himself drawn to her and her purple hair. Does she know something? Will she change his life?

The Boy ✔️ by lyssa_235

"Would you like to dance?" the boy asks me. I stare deep into his blue eyes, but I can't figure out who he is. He's tall with dark hair and the brightest blue eyes I've ever seen. I know everyone at this school, but with his features hidden behind his mask I can't tell who he is. "Sure, I would love to." Did I just say that? I agreed to dance with a random boy who I don't know. He takes my hand and leads me to the dance floor. We dance for a few songs and then he asks me, "Would you like to take a walk? I know the perfect place." I nod and he pulls me behind him off the dance floor. We leave the hotel and start walking down a little path. At the end of the path I notice a little fountain surrounded by candles. I wonder if he set this up. We walk over to the fountain and we sit down on the edge. "I had a wonderful time tonight," says the guy. He reaches to his face and removes his mask. I recognize him immediately. How did I not know it before? *** Carter Bennett has managed to survive her first 3 years of high school. Everything has been amazing... for the most part. She had her life completely planned out.

Girl of Mine by SiljeWrites

All stories, good or bad, begin at the right time and place. The night Rosalie Wood's boyfriend of one year proposed to her during an Elvis Presley concert in 1956, she went from thinking she knew everything, to knowing nothing. Faced with Wendell's infidelity, she soon finds herself consumed by the anxious, unknown road ahead. But a path is paved as Elvis joins her journey at the height of his infamous criticism. Beneath the dazzling spotlight, he battles the pressure of public scrutiny, unflattering nicknames, rules to follow or break, and the growing disconnection between the man and the image. As Rosalie becomes a steady presence in Elvis' life, helping him navigate his struggles and love life, she's forced to confront her own. Their growing bond, rooted in trust and friendship, lets them discover solace where they thought there was none. This is the start of a book series about personal growth, staying true to yourself, and the many challenges we stumble upon throughout human life, no matter who we are. Dear Reader: Girl of Mine is rooted in its time, delving into both the life and challenges of the 1950s. Along the way, it speaks of sensitive themes such as se*ual assault, violence, substance abuse, mental health, and racism. While these themes are heavy, they are included with the purpose to reflect, to educate, spread awareness and improve one's mental health.

Midnight Falls by RealPerryThePlatypus

When you're a seventeen-year-old girl with anxiety disorder and a gorgeous, popular girl that absolutely hates your guts for who-knows-what reason bullying you whenever she gets the chance, Anna Falls has no choice but to face reality.... her life sucks. But the little sparks of hope that build up her optimistic, bright soul convince her otherwise. She will always think of one thing and that there is hope in life. Maybe even a goal. It might not be visible now, but she knew that it became as clear as a bell when she ran into Luke Carter. Twice. In one day. Second time being literally into him. -- "How about fifty-fifty?" I offer in ragged breaths. "We could have just done this from the beginning," he replies, breathing heavily. We both chuckle. I gaze into his green eyes. "Your eyes are really beautiful," I blurt out. "I know," he smirks. "Are you always that egotistic?" "It depends," he answers, pushing my hair behind my ear. I smile at him. "You're welcome then." "I never said thank you." "And I said you're welcome. Are we done, Catherine Obvious?" -- #3 in annoying: 11/18/2020 #39 in teenagers: 01/03/2021 #8 in disorder: 01/12/2021 #110 in romance: 01/19/2021 All media used within the cover does not belong to me, but belongs to the app Canva.

The Small Things [Elvis] by PurpleKorea134

Our favorite star Elvis Presley learns to love the smaller things in life... Elvis is working on the 1964 film Roustabout, which takes place at a carnival. There on the set, he meets a variety of people - a man who can swallow swords, a man a foot taller than him, and a woman who is twice his weight. Of course, these people are all extras with a unique talent or trait that got them onto the set. Among these special people is twenty-four-year-old Shannon Comm. She's an extra, as well as the resident vet, and she owns a friendly spaniel. Well, we all know how much Elvis loves animals... and women. Being involved with this one, though, or even being close to her, will cause problems. Why? She's only three-and-half feet tall, and everyone mistakes her for a person more than half her age. Regardless, the sparks fly. Hey, she may be the height of a child, but she's still a beautiful woman with a huge love for animals and huge blue eyes. How can Elvis resist? Note: I got Shannon's image from Shauna Rae, a young woman with a rare growth defect. There's a show about her on TLC. Story rating warning: some cuss words, kissing and sensual descriptions

Vegas Hotel: The Female Bellhop by PurpleKorea134

You have seen Elvis with every girl you can think of from the twenty-six Elvis stories I have written. This time, Elvis falls in love with someone vastly younger than him. This may not come as too much of a surprise, since he loved younger women and even dated a girl half his age near the end of his life. I just wanted to take my own spin of this idea. It is 1974, and Elvis is busy doing shows in Vegas. He is still in a bit of a slump because of his divorce with Priscilla the year before, and, for the first time in his life, he doesn't want to have anything to do with romance. He just tries to stay busy. Well, all is thrown off-kilter when he happens to see a young bellhop at the hotel he's living and working in being mistreated. Of course, he will have none of that. Turns out the lad is a young woman, to his surprise, as her blonde hair escapes her bellhop hat. This blonde beauty looks no older than twenty-one, but... well, we all know how much Cupid loves toying with Elvis. And this girl, who happens to not be much of a fan of Elvis, is shocked when she starts feeling something for a man nearly twice her age! Well, of course, a girl can't help herself when a man wants to protect her. Cover photo and other pictures used in the story are courtesy of AI generation. (Boy, do I love AI!
