A Soldier of No Importance [ WWII / Band of Brothers ] 1
Included on Wattpad's HistoricalFiction World Wars reading list. - * - * - * - Being in the French Resistance wasn't what Alice Klein envisioned her life looking like. She'd wanted a husband and a flat in Paris, and maybe a cat with a pink bow who would sleep on her piano. But bullets didn't discriminate between male or female, young or old. Alice knew that better than most. As a half-German, half-French Jew, it seemed no matter where she went, she was hated. To the German army or Vichy France, she was a traitor. To any uneducated Allied soldier, her last name screamed Nazi. When the Maquis heard of the Allies looking for connections to the French Resistance, they'd quickly offered up Alice as a multilingual translator and Underground liaison. Whisked away from the French Alps, she arrived to the States to train as a paratrooper, knowing that failure was not an option no matter how much she disliked it. Lucky for her, she didn't just find barracks and training grounds in America. She found men, and in them, family to replace the one she'd lost. - * - WARNINGS for realistic depictions of world war ii, strong language, era-typical sexism, era-typical anti-semitism, alcohol abuse, cigarette abuse, past sexual assault - * - * - * - Pairing: mostly gen, way down the line it's eventual Lewis Nixon/OC BOOK ONE in [ A Tale of Two Heritages ] Start Date: December 5, 2019 End Date: March 24, 2020 Final Word Count: 150,786 Cross-posted to FFN and Ao3 - * - * - * - #1 in World War Two, #1 in Band of Brothers, #1 in Feminist, #1 in 1940s, #1 in Lewis Nixon FIRST PLACE: Cherry Blossom Awards 2020, Writer's Glory Awards 2020 THIRD PLACE: Historical Fiction in Spice Off Award, Fanfiction in Majestic Inc.

Winfred
The Women's Guard, The Soldier, The Nazi, The Spy. The Spy turned Prisoner. As they say, dead men (or women, as the case may be) tell no tales. But Kathleen Winfred isn't dead; she managed to escape. Now, the story of her capture by Nazis in occupied France, and her time spent in a hotel-turned-prison must be reported to her superiors. Most stories like Kathleen's are simple: captured, taken prisoner, and, finally, a daring or lucky escape to freedom. But Kathleen's is a little more complicated than that, and to sort out what goes to her superiors in the end, she has to wade through the memories first. .....

The Last Mercy
Occupied France, 1942. In Lyon, a city strangled by shadows and betrayal, German soldier Johann Keller is bound to a cause he no longer believes in. Claire Moreau, a fearless young courier for the resistance, risks her life with every message she carries. When their paths collide one night, Johann makes a choice that changes everything, he spares her life. What begins as an act of mercy sparks a forbidden love, whispered in alleys and hidden from watchful eyes. But as the Gestapo closes in and suspicion grows on both sides, trust becomes more dangerous than treason. In a world where every heartbeat could be their last, Johann and Claire must decide whether love is worth the ultimate price. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Claire pressed herself against Johann, breath uneven, fingers digging into his coat. She tilted her head slightly, feeling his warm breath against her neck, sending a shiver down her spine. "They could be anywhere," she whispered, voice trembling. Johann's hands cupped her face, thumbs tracing her jaw, lingering there like he couldn't let go. "Then we stay... just for now. Here. Together." A nervous smile tugged at her lips. "And you call this a good idea?" "I don't care," he murmured, voice low, rough with need. "I need this. You... I can't wait. Not a second longer." Her pulse throbbed against his chest. "Johann..." He leaned closer, lips brushing hers, teeth grazing her bottom lip, holding her like he feared she might vanish. "Stay with me. Feel this. Every heartbeat, every breath-remember it. Remember us-before the world drags us apart." Her fingers clung to him, nails pressing into his coat. His hands tightened around her waist, holding her impossibly close. For a moment, the war, the fear, the shadows outside-they all vanished, leaving only the heat between them, fragile and burning.

Hidden Truth
Carol is dropped into the plot of her favourite crime novel as a tragic side character with the same name. The character who shared her name was an unfortunate cannon fodder who died to advance the plot and further, the protagonist's drive to solve the crime and avenge his junior officer who was murdered by the final boss. Carol was only mentioned briefly. Maybe a total of 5 lines were used to describe her. She was an intern at the station fresh out of the police academy at the ripe age of 19. She wasn't even aware of the main case that the plot revolved around. The only reason to explain her death was being at the wrong place at the wrong time, which caused her to bump directly into the main villain as he was escaping the protagonist's chase midway through the book. The villain took her hostage as he noted her badge and lack of protective equipment and then killed her when the protagonist tried to negotiate terms rather than simply accepting his demands. Although the villain pulled the trigger, Carol couldn't help cursing out the protagonist when she read this scene as she felt he was equally responsible for her death. Carol ended up finishing the book anyway and as she read the last chapter a sense of frustration overcame her and she left a 'strongly worded' comment for the author, cursing out the protagonist as stupid and irresponsible, she preached that there was no reason to have killed off a 19-year-old girl like Carol (from the book) the way they did and how if a person with common sense faced that situation the girl would have lived. So when Carol awoke in the young girl's body, she had a few thoughts: what the hell is happening? how do I avoid dying? can I speed up the plot to save more lives? Along the way, Carol discovers a surprising ability hidden in the cannon fodders DNA. She has a mystical ability to physically see when a person lies and the actual truth. I'll update as soon as the writers block leaves me be.Complete
