Untamed
"She's the fuse," Rowan muttered. "And we're all gonna burn." _____ Sadie Quinn didn't plan on ending up in a nowhere town like Deadwater, Texas. But running doesn't always come with options, just a half-charged phone, a bag over her shoulder, and a past she'd rather not look back at. She came for the job. A quiet cabin. A paycheck. A chance to feel like herself again. What she found were four men. Rhett, the cold, commanding boss with eyes like judgment and a voice like gravel. Colt, all sharp edges and low threats, the one who doesn't believe in giving space. Rowan, charming and reckless, always smiling like he knows what she's thinking. And Levi, the quiet one. Unreadable, intense... and the first to truly see her. They're not just cowboys. Not just ranchers. There's something darker behind those stares. Something dangerous under the surface of Hollow Creek. Sadie doesn't trust easily. But every day on that ranch pulls her in deeper. Toward secrets, toward heat, toward the kind of want that can burn everything down. She came here to escape. She might've just found the thing that finally undoes her. _____ Updating frequentlyComplete
King Henry
Medieval England - Year 1450: Eleanor was a poor shopkeeper's daughter whose only hope for a better life for herself and her family was to marry well. When she caught the eye of Thomas Fletcher, a royal courtier of noble blood, her family thought he was the answer to all their problems. Eleanor thought he was unattractive and rude, but she didn't have any better options as a poor commoner so she accepted his proposal. They just had to somehow convince King Henry that she was a suitable bride for Thomas so he would approve of their union, because marrying Thomas meant that she would join Henry's inner circle as a courtier. At just twenty three years old Henry had to take over as the King of England when his father passed away unexpectedly. On his first day presiding over the royal court, he was faced with a tough decision, should he approve Thomas' marriage to Eleanor, a commoner that he was almost certain was unfit to join his Royal Court? He decided the only fair way to decide was to have her stay at his castle for a week as his guest so he could see for himself if she had what it took to withstand the pressure of the life of a royal courtier. What King Henry didn't count on was the feelings that started to grow for that commoner throughout the week. She was already betrothed to someone else and even if she wasn't, a King could never marry a commoner. But he also couldn't ignore the growing need he felt inside to be with her, even if it would throw his country into a civil war and turn both of their lives upside down. He knew some things were worth fighting for.

An Unexpected Life
Isabel's life was turned upside down with one decision. She had been living rather a peaceful, albeit boring, life with her grandparents on the edge of the Scottish Highlands when a fateful land trade occurred and she was brought into a world that she never imagined. Isabel, now with the nickname Isla, finds herself in a whole new village, learning a new language, new world views, new traditions, and dealing with new emotions. --------------------------------- Laird Lachland MacNichol was tired. While he was only in his late 20s, he had spent most of his adult life picking up the mess that was left to him by his incompetent father. Not only had he reestablished their clans control of the Isle of Skye, he'd accidentally found himself with families under his protection on the mainland. While this made his old clan families proud of their newfound strength and connections, it had also gained the attention of other lairds in the area. Now, he had to pull in extra help from the new families to prepare for an onslaught of visitors from all ranks. Little did Lachlan know that his actions had put more into play than he realized and the laird's life was about to be changed in ways he could not imagine. (Very loosely set in the Scottish Highlands before the English impact the region too much - will revise someday to fix historical inaccuracies and make the timeline more concrete)Complete
