Damnation Of Devotion ✔
"I would've prayed for Them to go easy on you too." He moves and his eyes are on me, eyes where they are brimming with tears, but his soft smile confuses me. Gently caressing my temple, he gazes at me as if I'm the most delicate treasure. His lips kiss my fingers. "They did. A few years late but They did. Their mercy on me is you." ______________ While World War II is absorbed in its own devastation, a runaway slave stumbles upon a meadow. He is saved by a curious, lonely spirit and builds an affinity with her; but will he be her only salvation or eternal damnation? Either way, she can't let him go. And neither can he... as they're more similar than they thought. With unexpected gifts and losses coming their way, the starry-eyed lovers go on a journey for a sense of peace through a strange reality, a stark contrast to her own. The human world.

Spoken in Silence| ✓
In the autumn of 1916, deep in rural Ontario, Clara DuBois, a young Black woman, spends her days tending to her aunt's modest farm and working as a nurse's aide at a military hospital overflowing with wounded soldiers. She keeps her head down, works hard, and knows better than to expect kindness from a world that has rarely offered it. Still, she finds purpose in her care-until a single encounter shatters the ground she's built her life on. When Lieutenant Edward Whitcombe, a well-born, sharp-tongued soldier from a wealthy Toronto family, is brought in with a shattered leg and a sharper temper, Clara is assigned to tend to his wounds. What begins as a clash of class, race, and stubborn wills slowly softens into something neither of them expected: understanding. And, perhaps, something even deeper. But as rumours stir and the shadow of separation looms ever larger, Clara and Edward must decide whether the emotions between them is strong enough to endure the forces determined to tear them apart.Lengkap

Dust and Destiny
Time Frame: 1865-1869, immediately following the Civil War. Setting: The book is set across the plains and small frontier towns of Kansas, Nebraska, and Colorado Territory, as railroads are slowly expanding westward. Lawmen, outlaws, and settlers are carving out lives in a raw, often unforgiving landscape. Plot: The story follows Clara Bennett, a daring and independent 22-year-old woman whose family lost everything in the Civil War. Determined to make her own way, she leaves her small Missouri town and heads west with nothing but a revolver, her wits, and a horse she bought with her meager savings. Along the way, she encounters: Eli Thompson, a charming but morally gray outlaw hiding from the law, who becomes an uneasy traveling companion. Sheriff Jonas Calloway, a relentless lawman who is tracking Eli but develops a grudging respect for Clara's resourcefulness. Native American tribes trying to protect their land from encroaching settlers. Dangerous terrain, harsh winters, and opportunistic bandits. The book's adventure comes from Clara navigating the challenges of frontier life-horseback chases, river crossings, train robberies, and tense negotiations with townsfolk and Native Americans. While it's full of daring moments, it's realistic for the 1860s: communication is slow, gunfights are deadly, survival is uncertain, and the culture of the time shapes every choice. Tone: Gritty, adventurous, and character-driven, focusing on survival, morality, and the tension between law and lawlessness in the Wild West.Lengkap
The Forgotten Ones (A Completed Steamy, Historical Romance)
We know a lot about the American Civil War. We know about the battle at Gettysburg and how Sherman burned Atlanta but do you know many individual stories? Follow Oliver and Naomi from their arranged marriage through the war. It will be quite a journey as Naomi faces the war home alone and Oliver fights battle after battle. She will face one of the cruelest band of the southern militia army as she tries to protect the people she loves most. This is a story about the ones left home during the war. The one's who earned no great merit or place in history. The forgotten heroes of a bloody war that stood for freedom and equality for all Americans. I based some of facts in the story on writings left behind by my family that lived here in Indiana in the 1860s. My ancestors were Quaker and they were abolitionists in Indiana. We still have their homes used in the underground railroad in our family. My other side was endangered servants from Ireland and my great-great-grandfather was, unfortunately, one of the soldiers that came to Indiana while serving under John Hunt Morgan. He was the rest of my family's enemy. https://www.wattpad.com/646167251-the-forgotten-ones-a-completed-steamy-historical Please keep in mind this story is based in America during the 1860s and it was a different time.
