Another Helstone Girl | J. Thornton by thebookgirl25

Eleanor Weston swore she would never return to Milton. The smoky air, the endless hum of machinery, and the memories of a past she wished to forget-it was all behind her. But when the Hales decide to move north, she refuses to let Mrs. Hale arrive in a place unfit for her delicate health. Determined and independent, Eleanor journeys to Milton alone, a month ahead of them, to prepare their new home. What she doesn't expect is John Thornton. At Mr. Hale's request, the stern and formidable mill master offers his reluctant assistance, drawn to the young woman who seems out of place yet utterly at home in his city. Her quiet strength fascinates him, her defiance challenges him, and her kindness unsettles him in ways he cannot explain. But Eleanor has secrets of her own-secrets that could change everything. Because John Thornton's landlord, the man he respects, the man whose name holds weight in Milton... is the father she abandoned long ago. When the truth comes to light, will pride and past wounds drive them apart? Or will love find a way through the smoke and shadows of Milton?

John and Marlena deal with her memory loss and Alex North's control. Each short story is its own separate short, basically how I wanted or thought a conversation/event should have gone during this awful storyline long ago.

Thorn Rose (PUBLISHED) by purplehamsa

"Forgive me God for I have sinned. I allowed a Northman's lip to touch my own, to touch me neck and travel the length of the sensitive skin. My blood writhers, yearning for his touch. A quenching urge for desire and O'Lord, my eager flesh burns with raging fire." When the powerful Jarl, a ruthless and merciless Viking, takes a sudden interest in Faylin, a nun he captured on a raid, she vows not to let his wiles distract her from what is truly important - her faith. His very presence is what fuels the fire within her, allowing the hatred to fester. He destroyed her world and she watched it burn to the ground, crumbling and descending, shattering into pieces of hopelessness right before her eyes. Though what happens when she starts to realize that beneath the Northman's toughened shield lays a forbearing soul, lost within the darkness and the shadows of his own façade? Stricken by this realization, the possibility of humanity under such a barbaric character, Faylin finds herself torn between her fears of eternal damnation and desire, struggling to keep her sanity as she dances on that very thin line between love and hate.
