"I, William James Archibald, being of sound mind and body, do hereby declare this my last will and testament. To my beloved grandchildren, Alastair, Aurelia, Julian, Carver and Ophelia, I leave the entirety of my estate, to be divided equally amongst the five of you."

"However," Mr. Harris, the lawyer continues, his voice gaining gravity, "this inheritance comes with one condition. Before my assets are to be divided, each of you must spend six consecutive months living together here, at Arcadia Manor."

Genevieve Anderson, the girl that had been left behind and forgotten. In a town where everybody knows everybody, meaning that no one goes unnoticed. Nobody just grabs a bag and leaves in the middle of the night, without someone seeing something. Nobody changes identity over night, and is suddenly left with the care of their father in her hands. Forgotten over night, Genevieve changes the person that everyone thought they knew. Gone was the girl that would smile and wave to everyone, was replaced by a girl that had a need for stealing and getting by every day. She had been left with the responsibility of an old ranch that was no longer in operation and the care of her father, who had been to war, and was suffering from additions like there was no tomorrow. Gone was the girl that depended on her big brothers to open the gate, replaced with a girl that worked long hours at the ranch, before she was sneaking out after midnight, to drive whatever cars her brothers had left behind. Except, one day, something happens and everything takes a turn for the worse. "I left you here, for 20 minuets, and you have already let him relapse?! I trusted you, for a second, and you backstabbed me?! I can't believe any of you anymore, because you are made of lies!" Holding on by a string, Genevieve isn't sure how much more she can take, especially when people appear from the past she thought she left behind, when she was 5 years old. Time moves on for a reason, doesn't it? "I told you to forget about it. It's in the past, and nobody has ever asked me to do what you are asking me to do. You are asking me to put away my boots and hat, and stand in front of people in heels and a puffy dress. That's not who I am, if you had stuck around to find out who I really am.

Winter Tales

20 parts Complete

For the past few years, the Taylor siblings have allowed themselves one little luxury: their annual skiing trip to the mountains. Join Lily and her unique family on a week of fun, snow, music, sibling banter, hot chocolate - and maybe a little bit of romance. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a prequel to my other stories "Unravelling" (finished) and „Dissolving" (sequel, in progress). I recommend that you read the first few chapters of „Unravelling" first, if only to get to know the characters a bit better. You can find both other books on my profile.
