It's 1939, and the world is at the precipice of war.  But life for one young man in rural America couldn't be better.  Jonathon Blackwell is the eldest son of the most powerful family in town and heir to Blackwell Iron and Mining.  Unlike many who struggled to survive the final years of the Great Depression, he has everything he could ever want - except the one thing he desires most.

Sheltered by class, privilege, and living inside a locked iron fence meant to protect him, no one could ever imagine anything terrible could happen to him, but dark times are coming.  Fate is about to play it's cruel hand, and when it's all over, the world, the country, and young Jonathon will be changed forever.

The much anticipated prequel to the 2014 Watty award winning and Wattpad featured story, The Boy in the Woods!   This is Jonathon's story, and it just may break your heart...

Will she be able to learn from her mistakes and protect her heart this time around?

She must decide if staying the same or taking a chance on something new is the right choice for her. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * This story was originally a 1D fanfiction uploaded in wattpad year 2015 with 13 Chapters. Now, I'm editing it, revising some of the names (as well as the scenes and most of the chapters) so it will fall under the category of young adult romance instead of fanfiction. The reason for doing this is for publication purposes in the future. Feel free to imagine the same characters from the original, or think of someone you liked. Louis, Harry, Zayn, Niall, and Liam will always have a special place in my heart. But for inspiration purposes, I now imagine my BTS boys for this story, particularly JK and V!

Bound To Bea by LeeleeKez

"No respect for the dead." His words came out in silent whispers, his teeth clenched. A small smile tugged on her lips. "Respect is earned in life, my lord. When a man fails to earn respect in life, it cannot suddenly be bestowed on him simply because he returned to the dust whence he came." "At the very least, Lady Atkins, pretend," he admonished. "Pretend to mourn for your husband! You are a woman in mourning! Grief, sadness, decency is expected of you," he growled, stepping so close to her, his nose almost kissed hers. "Not a low-cut, salacious red dress!" She inched forward, jaw set, until she could feel his warm breath on her skin. "And you are a man whose cousin's widow was only a few minutes ago caught with a man on top of her," she shot back, leaning further in until her lips were nearly brushing his as she searched his gaze. "Anger, rage, fury, is expected of you, my lord... Not jealousy!" * Newly widowed, the sudden death of Beatrice's husband has brought about her freedom from the shackles of a loveless marriage... Or so she thinks. All hope is quickly lost when she discovers her husband's cruelty in disinheriting her and leaving her penniless. But worse than his decision to disinherit her, is his decision to leave her at the mercy of his cousin; Noah, the very handsome Marquess of Camden. TW: This story contains mentions of suicide.

Flower He Couldn't Pluck by MadhviVashisht8

It's a story of two people living on different sides of the same dimension. She dreaded his world, and he envied hers. She reminded him of a life he had loved once, cherished once. And he reminded her of a life she escaped once, feared once. A pretty decent job, the most wonderful family, silliest friends and a life she loved. Rose had it all until after one day someone decided to snatch it away from her. Why? Because the life she has been living was nothing but a cloak hiding humongous truth and secrets. He was the destroyer of the life she treasured and the creator of the life she never wanted to live. Highest rankings ever: #1 Jealousy #2 Obsession
