Caroline Freewill is a sheltered preacher's daughter in the wild Indian Territory during the Civil War. Her carefully formed bubble is popped when the War breaks out, changing everything she knows about life, love, family, and faith. 
  Orry Roberts is a poor Cherokee farmer's son who loves the preacher's daughter. When he leaves to fight, he finds the War is not just that of the abolitionists- its his own war. 
  Their lives will be touched by the Almighty God- and also by the actions of man. They find faith is harder when you feel separated from everything you want.  
  Will they be an unspoken casualty of the War, or will they rise above?

Arianna Hope is a child of a rich family, but doesn't act like it. She spends her free time volunteering, contributing to charities, keeping a perfect GPA, and working from the bottom up of her parent's company to learn what it's all about. She doesn't like things just being handed to her (with the exception of her personal library) and hates the rich kids at school who just live off their parents, not caring about responsibility. She finally gets her parents to fund the building of a large and expensive library for her school, because their old one is tiny and offers little help with reading and studying. When the construction is completed at the end of summer, her friend drags her to a house party to celebrate. Arianna makes some life changing decisions and wakes up in bed next to the boy with the player reputation, and she can only hope won't remember her or what they did the night before, sneaking out before he even realized it was her that was there. Her hopes come true when school starts and things are normal, he doesn't remember, and she can live her life like it never happened But what happens when that one night creates a certain consequence growing inside of her? What happens when the player, Damon Parker has been going crazy thinking about a girl he just can’t remember? And what happens when a huge hurricane rolls in, leaving Arianna and Damon trapped alone together in their high school for a week while the hurricane passes and the roads get cleared enough for a rescue?

***UPDATE: I am super excited to announce that Tattered Gray is available on Amazon in paperback and Ebook! It's free with Kindle Unlimited. Reviews would be much appreciated. https://t.co/hi0M0qHCmE I will leave the first six chapters of the book here on Wattpad for users to enjoy, errors and all (I'm trying not to cringe), as I'm doing final edits. Once available, I will post the link for purchase here. Thank you all so, SO much for reading this story and providing me with invaluable feedback. It is 1864, and the War Between the States has brought combat to Desoto Parish, Louisiana. Seventeen-year-old farmer's daughter Luciana Lanton must try to find her father-or what is left of him-after the Battle of Mansfield. Instead of her father, she discovers a young Confederate soldier, Henry Asher, lost and forgotten after having been severely wounded in battle. Determined to not see another man die, she does her best to nurse the soldier back to health. It isn't long before she finds herself enamored by his winsome heart and controversial thinking, spiting society's definition of an ideal match. To complicate matters further, her mother insists that she instead be receptive to the attention of Beauregard Dozier, an unexpected but wealthy suitor with a questionable past, so as to ensure there is food on the family table. With her family's wellbeing at stake, will Lucy abide by sensibility or recklessly succumb to her heart's wishes, and will Beau's history intertwine with her future? Inspired by civilian accounts of the Red River Campaign, Tattered Gray is a story of the devastating ramifications of war, life in a society both prejudiced and volatile, and the chance at an extraordinary love in spite of it all.

Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations for a twenty-four-year-old. While others her age might be in college or embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!
