Summary
**Despite the very long hiatus I always planned on finishing this someday. I really love this story and what I was trying to do with these characters, though admittedly, I was very young when I started it and perhaps it wasn't done with the sophistication required. A rewrite had been the plan, once I had time and inspiration struck. As much as I adore these characters, the accusations of racism going around are kind of heartbreaking and I just don't have the heart to even consider coming back to it right now. I really thought the moral of this story was clear and that my intention was obvious, but I can see it's not. Maybe it's down to immaturity, bad writing and/or a lack of sophistication. If you want to know how it was going to end, feel free to email me.**
The only reason I'm not deleting it completely is because that will just give people the ammo to keep saying it was racist. I'd prefer it be available for people to look at and decide for themselves.

Summary
William Langdon looks like a man preserved from another era. He has all the soft grain of old cinema, a man cut from a cloth no one wears anymore. He's polished, refined, effortlessly charming, and it makes people lower their guard around him without ever quite knowing why.
Maple Bennett knows better than to accept a ride from a stranger, especially on a deserted road, in the middle of a raging storm, far enough from the nearest town that the shape of it feels like a memory. And yet, when Will pulls up beside her lonely bus stop, rain streaking his windshield and concern in his gaze, something in her is set on edge.
Refusing him should have been simple. But simple is for kind men. Normal men.
By the time Maple understands what she's stepped into, the road has disappeared behind her, the storm has closed in, and the man at her side has all the patience of a man who gets what he wants.
The most terrifying thing about Will Langdon is not how far he can bend her, it's the loving hands that refuse to let her break.

Summary
WIP - Evie, borne from a childhood of chaos, has only ever wanted one thing: to be loved. Traumatised and vulnerable, Evie pins her hopes of a better life on her new career at Willow Publishing House, a renowed company led by Alexander Willow. Alexander, controlling and cruel, places Evie in an impossible position - submit to his every twisted whim or return to a life she was once desperate to escape?
____Alexander ignored my protests, bundling me into the back of a cab. I didn't want to go with him - I wanted to go home. I opened my mouth to form an argument, yet it was like my brain was buffering. I stared out the car window, noticing how the lights of the city streamed like a watercolour painting. Thoughts fell from my mind as a warmth, comforting and cosy, widened in my chest. What was going on?
Vaguely, I remembered the pill, promised as paracetamol, bitter on my tongue.
"A-Alexander?" I asked, feeling weak and dizzy, "w-was that really just paracetamol?"
Alexander looked down at me, impossibly handsome in the darkened light of the cab, streetlights catching the moss-coloured corkscrews embedded in the grey of his eyes.
He smirked, "it's whatever I tell you it is, babygirl."

Summary
The heatwave of 1955 didn't just bring cracked roads and heavy air to Maple Hill, it brought Kitty O'Callaghan. Instead of the quiet start she hoped for with her mother, Kitty finds herself trapped under the roof of her stepbrother Johnny - a brooding mechanic who sees in her every trace of the woman he resents.
What begins as aggression soon turns to desire. Johnny soon wants more than her fear. He wants her softness, her trust, her heart. And nothing will stand in his way. Not her tears. Not her defiance. Not even her hate.

Summary
I heard the chimes of her anklets—a haunting whisper, an echo of something too painful. I desired her. A desire so vengeful that it consumed my very being. But make no mistake. It wasn’t a desire born of admiration, or even love, that men such as myself professed to proper ladies. It was one of hunger, born of years of loneliness and isolation, of an aching need for flesh.
Damian Redfern, a solitary young officer of the Imperial Forest Service endures the brooding silence of the Nilgiri hills, India, in 1892, cut off from home and kindred, until he falls into intense lust for Valli, a quiet veiled maid, modest yet haunting.
(Based on true historical accounts)
