Life's not the easiest. It's not the simplest, either.  Especially for Annette Alvarez. Half Irish, half Hispanic, and living in 1965's version of America, it's her against the world. Well, she's got her friends too, a gang of overlooked misfits. A freak with a huge scar; a boy with an abusive father: a pretty boy who looks like trouble; a gay boy; an almost invisible boy; a near-silent, small Latino boy; and her overprotective brother. This is not a fairy tale, this is a tale of suspension, the struggle for acceptance, death, racism, fights, sexism, fires, and short tempers.

{MxMxMxM} "I'm everything I can't be, and I hate it. But I can't do anything about the situation I'm in, so I'll have to deal with it. " .... Tycho Black was struggling with a few things in his life with no one to save him but himself. He didn't really care though, considering it was easy to block out unwanted things. Whether it was thoughts, physical or emotional pain, or anything else- at the end of the day none of it mattered to him. He didn't care that he could possibly feel some sick attraction to men, even though he had never felt attraction before. He didn't care about going home and being met with nothing but fear. And he certainly didn't care about Alexei Abbots or the other older and mysterious men Alexei was associated with. Alexei in particular, though, was just a little weasel that wouldn't leave his mind. He thought he could block him out like every other person, like every other male that made him think in such a bad way. But somehow, for the first time, he couldn't force himself to forget the expression on the boy's face when his fist collided roughly with his jaw. ~ Alexei Abbots was happy. Really, really happy. He was open, free, and accepted by the two best women he had ever met who completely turned his life around. Not only was he welcomed with open arms by his two mothers, but he was also met with the arms of two men he had a mutual fondness for: Riley Worthright and Xavier Mendoza. He was on top of the world, and his not-so-gentle past wouldn't change that. Neither would Tycho Black, the aggressive bully on campus who seemed to get off on being a homophobic a-hole.

Inescapable - A Mafia Story

45 parts Ongoing

In ancient Rome, a horrifying tradition existed: baby girls were often murdered at birth, viewed as weaker and less valuable than boys, who were considered fit for war and essential to society. Centuries later, echoes of this dark practice linger within certain mafia families. While the killings have stopped, a cruel alternative remains-selling their daughters to other families to avoid appearing weak in the cutthroat world of organized crime. The Hernandez family, with their reputation built on strength and loyalty, has raised eight sons. But when Stefano and Vittoria Hernandez finally welcome a baby girl, their joy is overshadowed by fear. Tradition demands sacrifice, and the family's survival in the mafia world hinges on the unthinkable. They are left with no choice but to give her up, a decision that will haunt them and ripple through their family for years to come.
