1910 edwardian fantasy historical historicalfiction re-telling teen thesecretgarden yorkshire youngadult

"A great many things have happened in that garden - things you oughtn't to know about. Some good, some bad, and all akin to magic."

Yorkshire, 1910
Sixteen-year-old Mary Lennox has said her goodbyes to the sun. Plucked from India and the only life she's ever known, Mary must find her place within the walls of Misselthwaite Manor - her estranged uncle's sprawling and dreary estate.

It is only with the discovery of a locked and forgotten garden that Mary's spirits begin to lift. Claiming it for herself, the garden becomes Mary's paradise and the first secret she's ever had to keep. But, the garden has secrets of its own.

Deaths, disappearances and visions have long ridden the winds of the lonely Yorkshire moors. And then there's Mary's cousin Colin, bed-ridden and fated to spend his life in the dark. Misselthwaite's mysteries begin to unravel as Mary's connection to the garden and a young gardener by the name of Dickon deepen.

Is the garden the cause - or the answer to everything?

Twice Chosen | Esmerelda Potter by HogwartsMagic5

[BOOK 1] ❝ I love you both so much! Please, be strong. See you soon. ❞ These were the last words Lily Potter spoke to her twin children the night she was murdered. Harry and Esmerelda Potter are twins, separated after the tragic incident as young children, not entirely knowing that the other one exists. Harry was sent to live with his aunt and uncle and cousin, while Esmerelda was found by an elderly woman, who raised her after the dark wizard Voldemort brutally murdered their parents. After Esmerelda's guardian passed away, none other than Nymphadora Tonks adopted her the summer before she turned eleven. When each one of the twins receives a letter that changes their lives, they reunite and promise to never let each other go again. After they get to Hogwarts, friendships and enemies establish, and mysteries emerge from the surface, including one about a powerful stone and a previously forgotten dark legacy. Harry and Esmerelda battle a troll, play a sport on flying broomsticks, attempt to understand the case of a missing wand, and uncover a secret about the stolen stone! These are only the beginning of their adventures... Most characters begin to J.K. Rowling, except Esmerelda Potter and Addy Pennison. These events are based on the book "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone." I will also tell these stories sometimes based on the movies and other times based on the books. Some scenes I have also made up for your own pleasure. Happy Reading! :)

Heartless by Layanabella

My body trembled, but not from the cold. "You frighten me." His brow twitched, eyes darting around the features of my face. "Frighten, or excite?" His gaze dropped to my mouth. "Which is it, Miss Young?" ❆ Once upon a time in a dying village, there lived a girl who dreamed of a life free of fear and death. She yearned for a world not ruled by the darkness and the demons awaiting her inside it... For nearly eighteen years, Adaira Young has been able to hide from the monsters that plague her small village. Every year in Kinnot, a name must be drawn to be offered to the beasts from the mountains. Once they are sacrificed and disappear through the gates, they are never seen again. When Adaira's world comes crashing down around her and she finds herself on the outside of those very walls, Adaira comes face to face with the monster she's been cowering from all her life: A terrifying man named Beast. Whisked away to his palace in the icy mountains, Adaira struggles to adjust to her new life and fight the dangerous feelings of attraction growing inside her. But as the days grow colder and their relationship grows stronger, a deadly secret from Beast's past threatens to shatter everything. To live, he needs the one thing Adaira has to die for in order to love her: her heart. **A Beauty and the Beast retelling🖤♥️ Updates randomly, but mainly Friday's ⚠️❗️This book includes material that may be graphic to some viewers.

The Purpose of Miss Shepley by ArdenBrooks

An orphan with a dubious pedigree strives to secure her future through marriage, but as she stumbles through the dance of courtship, she begins to question who she truly is -- and who she wants to be. ***** Edith Shepley looks like a Wyrm. She takes after her father, whoever he was, but that doesn't change things. She is a proper Folk lady nonetheless, trained from the cradle to govern as Baroness of Ewert someday. And she knows her duty. Now a woman at sixteen years old, Edith must marry and beget Ewert's next heir. She obediently considers suitor after suitor, some sweet, some baffling, some detestable. But the more she sees of her mother's society, the more Edith questions whether she really is a Folk lady, after all. And the more she's stung by its insults, its injuries and injustices, the more she doubts she really wants to be. Book One of The Unfinished Wyrm! Wattys 2017 "The Storysmiths" winner!

Mattheo Riddle - Assumptions by Fan-taste

When their eyes met. YN felt like a dark cloak had been casted over her, shadowing her future. A boy with infamous reputation without even doing anything remarkable. Yet his behaviour set everything off in her. She never knew how much of a lie her life was until he arrived. "The past is always going to haunt you, haven't you heard of such a thing?" He spoke nonchalantly. She looked at him in disbelieve before narrowing her eyes "I really wanna Avada Kedavra your smart-ass at this point" she snapped. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~><~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Disclaimer I do not own any of the character except Yn and Lily Warrington is obviously a made up name and character from me. All credits goes to J.K. Rolling and whoever created Mattheo Riddle and Lorenzo Berkshire it's a story completely from my imagination so yes it wont follow the Harry Potter storyline order or events. Heads up, am going to update every week, if you wish, might as well put it in library until chap 19. Am also going to edited some of chapters that I had published later, maybe when am done doing drafts. English isn't my first language so don't expect "that kind" of description to things but I would try my best. Am writing this book to actually get used into using English so feel free to correct as I may have some mistakes. This is my first story!

Faded Away ↠H. Potter Twin [Dean Thomas] by dreamquaffle47

If you're tired of Potter twin cliches, then this book is for you. Stolen away on the night her parents died, Mary grew up as the problem child of an incompetent Muggle couple. She knows she is different, that much is evident from people's reactions to the things she can do. But when Mary is thrown into a world where magic is real, she will soon discover that being haunted by the ghosts of her parents and being driven up the wall by a man who claims to be her mother's friend is the least of her concerns. Something lurks in the dark recesses of her mind. Something that has been trapped in the shadows for far too long. Something evil that wants to break out. Albus Dumbledore cannot help but take a special interest in the little girl in whom he sees his dead sister - especially because history may be repeating itself...for the third time. He fears that Mary bears the curse of the Dumbledores: an Obscurus that threatens the very foundation of Hogwarts.
