Nathaniel Jean's Senior Year
At first glance, nobody would be able to tell that Nathaniel Jean had a problem. Or second glance, or third, or fourth. After all, he had everything. He was a captain of his school's soccer team and one of the top players in the state. He had a big house and money to spend. He had family, he had friends, he had fun, he had faith. He never meant for it to happen. He never wanted to look at another man in the way he should have been looking at a woman. The idea had disgusted him for most of his life - living in a heavily Catholic town with heavily Catholic parents, homophobia was the only response he knew. That didn't change when he first realized that he didn't like girls. No, Nathaniel Jean was still homophobic. He hated the idea of a man sleeping with another man. He was raised on the notion that all gays went to hell, and he believed it. He despised them, and so he despised himself. Nathaniel Jean was more fortunate than most, because help did arrive for him. Help by the name of Lucas Morgan, they boy he'd always known but never known. The boy with big dreams and bigger talent. The boy that changed Nathaniel's life over the course of their thirty-six week long senior year.Complete

His Irish Love | Thomas Barrow
Jessie Buckley, celebrated Irish actress and singer, had just wrapped filming Wicked Little Letters. But when a strange accident transports her to the 1920s, Jessie finds herself not on a film set, but living in the very real world of Downton Abbey-a world that is only fiction. To her astonishment, the Crawley family and their devoted servants are no characters on a script; they're flesh and blood, carrying out their lives in the grandeur of the grand estate. With no way to return to her own time, Jessie must adapt to the intricacies of Edwardian life. Stripped of her modern career and identity, she reinvents herself as a Lady of the house, all while concealing the truth of her origins. At first, Jessie feels like an outsider, caught between the rigid hierarchy upstairs and the vibrant lives of the servants below. But as she learns to navigate the elaborate social codes of Downton, she forms an unlikely bond with Thomas Barrow, the enigmatic first footman whose guarded demeanor hides a longing for acceptance and love. What begins as a friendship between two lonely souls soon blossoms into something deeper. Jessie, drawn to Thomas's vulnerability and resilience, finds herself falling for a man she once thought existed only in history. As their connection grows, Jessie faces an impossible choice: fight to return to the life and career she's known, or embrace a new existence-and a timeless love-in the past.Complete
