    Born into slavery, Lena Wells escapes in search of freedom-but instead finds a Union camp overflowing with runaways, soldiers, and the man whose gaze she can't seem to forget. What begins as stolen glances soon becomes forbidden touches and passionate, secret kisses. But war has a way of claiming everything, and when Julian is called back to his regiment, Lena is forced to let him go. Four years later, Lena has built a fragile new life in Philadelphia-a seamstress by day and a devoted mother by night, determined to protect the child who carries the face of the man she lost. Julian Dennis, wounded and discharged, is living in the same city rebuilding a life that no longer feels like his own. When a chance assignment brings Lena into his home that he shares with his mother-who has hired her to sew a few dresses-the past collides violently with the present. One look at Lena's little girl sends Julian spiraling. She looks like him. She acts like him. And the timing is undeniable. Yet Lena insists the child isn't his. Now Julian is torn between hope and heartache, while Lena clings to the truth she's carried alone for years. As long-buried emotions resurface and new wounds open, both must confront not only the ghosts of the war, but the powerful forces of society, race, loyalty, and love that threaten to keep them apart. Because sometimes the war doesn't end on the battlefield- Sometimes it finds you again, exactly where you're trying to start over.

Do you understand that?" ༄ 𝘼 𝙨𝙞𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙜𝙞𝙧𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙖 𝙍𝙤𝙮𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙪𝙨𝙠𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙧. 1770. Claudette Bardot loses everything she ever had, in the fire that erupts in The Groaning Goblet Tavern in her quaint town of Alsace where she worked with her two sisters-Paulette and Laurette-as a waitress. With the Prince of Beaumontria's monstrous curse withdrawn, his marriage to Belle, and the rogue city of Alsace brought under the kingdom of Beaumontria, the new era was supposed to be a new beginning. But not for Claudette. Part of the doll-like beautiful triplets formerly known around Alsace as the Bimbettes, the sudden fire at the tavern brutally destroys her life as Claudette knew it, killing her two sisters and the kindly tavern owner Monsieur Warrick, stealing her dreams, freedom and her voice. But when Alsace is visited by a group of the Prince's Royal Musketeers, and Claudette runs into the elusive and strong Marceau D'aureville, her despairing heart might just have found something else to beat for, on this cusp of her journey where unbeknownst to her, a curse awaits.

She is thrown into a life of servitude to the king. But What happens when the king develops a deep desire for her? Will she fall in love with the merciless King? 𝑬𝒙𝒄𝒆𝒓𝒑𝒕: I hear the king get up from his seat and start walking over to me. I see his shoes come into my line of vision. My senses are clouded by his strong scent of cedarwood. I refuse to look up at him. He gives off an aura that is dark and intimidating. My eyes begin to swell with tears at the thought that I will end up like the man before me. "Look at me," he commands in a deep voice. I refuse. He commands again this time more cynical, "Look. at. me!" His voice booms off the walls, echoing in the room. I flinch at the tone but still refuse. Then suddenly, he roughly raised my chin. My eyes meet his cold blue ones. His eyes seem to soften for a moment then quickly return to their cold state. He muttered something under his breath that I didn't catch. He lets go of my chin and walks around, scanning me with his eyes. "What am I to do with you?" He mutters to himself. After a few moments, he is back in front of me. He smirks, "I will make you my personal chambermaid." CONTINUE THE STORY INSIDE...

    "Evangeline," He exhaled tightly, a thick vein bulging in his forehead as he shut his eyes tight, brushing his lips against her bare shoulder, his hold on his gun tightening as he held it in the arm he had wrapped around her torso. "Though this is fucking New Orleans, it will not be the police business, thieves or killers, or even dealers of dark magic, but you, who will be the death of me." ༄ 𝘼 𝙋𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙝𝙞𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙝𝙞𝙚𝙛 𝙤𝙛 𝙋𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙚. 1927. When the twenty-four year old Princess of Maldonia and a practicing witch, Evangeline Hamilton's, life is endangered upon the murder of her father, the elder Queen of Maldonia arranges for her sister to be sent to New Orleans for her safety where the Princess finds herself sentenced to living in secret. The New Orleans Police Department is charged to primarily guard the life of the Maldonian royal while protecting her identity, but things get personal when Evangeline comes across the adamant, stoic, infuriatingly closed off presence of Theodore Stanhope, the Chief of Police of the NOPD, who has dark secrets of his own. Further, when Evange stumbles upon an old empty antique journal, her spiritual life takes a turn for the worse when strange and horrifying occurences begin around her, opening connections with her father's murder and the darkness surrounding the closed off and intimidating Theo Stanhope, and that cursed journal. *[Disney's The Princess and the Frog AU, mature read; violence, eventual smut, horror, gore, slowburn romance, mental health. 18+ only please.]

    Oscar Wilde's only novel is the dreamlike story of a young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty. In this celebrated work Wilde forged a devastating portrait of the effects of evil and debauchery on a young aesthete in late-19th-century England. Combining elements of the Gothic horror novel and decadent French fiction, the book centers on a striking premise: As Dorian Gray sinks into a life of crime and gross sensuality, his body retains perfect youth and vigor while his recently painted portrait grows day by day into a hideous record of evil, which he must keep hidden from the world. For over a century, this mesmerizing tale of horror and suspense has enjoyed wide popularity. It ranks as one of Wilde's most important creations and among the classic achievements of its kind.
