A Historical/ Romance novel

MULATTO (Iyila) tells the story of a young slave girl during the era when slavery was at its highest peak in the American South - the year 1860, before Abraham Lincoln's succession as president. Iyia was not just any slave but a mulatto, conceived through a brutal rape.

Life as a slave is quite unpredictable, misery and pain is the deal of the day especially amongst the black  females, this of course includes the mulattos who were generally seen as a curse, an abomination by their African mothers and some were thrown away after birth.

But Iyila, being quite fortunate, was kept until she turned six before being abandoned by her family. She gradually grows into a woman, passed on by different owners until she is finally sold to Mr John - the richest plantation owner in the whole of the South. His brutality could not be measured and hope in his household is something of a rare find. What with Mr. John's brutal son and his stupid daughter, the slaves are yet to see hell, until Gabriel - his first son - arrives from Oxford University with a degree in law.

The John's mansion soon turns into a drama house, where opinions clash and feelings begin to emerge.

What will happen when the handsome, intelligent and well built human rights activist begins to find the striking, stubborn mulatto slave (Iyila) amusingly intelligent and very unlike her folks? Could it be fondness? Or is it something much deeper? Which presents another delicate problem, dropping a yet to answer question - will Iyila ever let go of her hate for the white folks who have caused her nothing but pain? Or will his looks and opinions weaken her stony heart? Find out in this thrilling book .... MULATTO (Iyila)

Jack: Book One in the Trilogy, the Battle Begins by gdorion
51 parts Complete
In Book 1, Jack conspires with friend Jeremy to undermine their racist, secessionist teacher's efforts to poison his students' minds with his benefits-of-slavery lectures. Will the students buy into it? Not if Jack has any say. The book is dedicated to my brother and to my old friend, Jack, the latter who, at 19, was killed speeding in his too-fast car, alone, in 1971. We met when I was a first grader at a Groton, Massachusetts parochial school. Jack was in second grade, I was in the first grade. One day Jack began teasing on the bus ride home so we got off at his bus stop to fight. I was little - he much bigger. He pinned me to the ground, forced me to quit. That kicked off our friendship that lasted years. Jack was a pitcher on the high school baseball team. He was so fast - somewhat wild. I was afraid to bat against him. He tried out for a professional farm team but didn't make it. He worked in the local factory and had no real career designs other than in sports which were the center of his life. Not long after his failed attempt(s) at major league baseball, he smashed into a tree at high speed on a quiet road early one morning. Jack had a 'hero complex' - needing to be the center of attention. He excelled at sports but wasn't interested in academics. He bet everything on his sports abilities that wowed neighborhood friends growing up. This story also is dedicated to both Jack and my brother, Paul, a friend of Jack's. Paul passed in January, 2016. I finally started Jack's story in 2000 when I began teaching in New York City. It dawned on me one day to transport Jack as a composite character - i.e., a character who has qualities and characteristics that Jack had but who also possessed ones he didn't have - into 1860's America. In the book, Jack becomes the hero - a status that mostly evaded him in real life. I think he would have been proud of the story. Many events are entirely fictional - some are not. All characters are fictional or partially so.

"You're spoiled." He snapped at her as he moved toward her, fire in his caramel colored eyes. "And you're a lecherous rake!" She snapped back just as he yanked her forward, kissing her hungrily. She melted instantly. Turning into mush as his hands traveled down. One of his large hands squeezing her bottom. She gasped, electricity flying between them. "If this is how you react every time I tell you no, I'll be doing it a lot more often." He chuckled against her parted lips. Her eyes widened and she jumped back, slapping him across the face. "Oh!
