His father won’t stop nagging him about getting a boyfriend. The coffee is shit. And Robert’s got a nagging suspicion that the neighbor who’s been giving him vegetables in exchange for breakfast has more secrets than any rural farmer should.
Welcome to the Corner Inn, now under the new management of Robert Townsend.

Summary
"You are to take life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise."
- ExodusIn war no one is left unscathed, untouched by the horrors man can do to their neighbour. The American Revolution is a war of liberty and brutality, of honour and of spies categories that are rarely neat. Arielle Nathan, is a young Jewish heiress whose life is thrown into spin by the British interest in her family. Half Jacobite covert and half Jewish, having travelled in short space from London to New York they represent the cultural identities of Britain's enemies. Over the years of the revolution her girlhood melts in Setauket as she learns to take matters into her own hands, those of love from a youthful infatuation with a British Captain to the love of her life-a Quaker in New York to those with more serious consequences- matters of life and death. It seems the Old Testament will continue to ring true.

Summary
"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph."
Elizabeth Walker knows her place in the world, but that doesn’t mean she is happy with it.
That doesn’t mean she is happy to be staying- to be sheltered- at her father’s estate while he deals with congress in York, and her older brother, Joseph, deals with the parties and games of Philadelphia, while she makes sure her house stays put- and out of British hands.
And that doesn’t mean she is happy to be dragged into the war itself, after months of defeats outside Philadelphia, when finally on a cold December night, a dying soldier shows up at her door, and his commanding officer follows.
But, deep down, a part of her is happy when it means change- change in the war, change in her life- when she is recruited by the young, passionate, and downright angry Major Benjamin Tallmadge to help revive the army’s dying supply system and keep the men staying at Valley Forge alive.
By whatever means possible.Series

Summary
When Robert Townsend moves to the small town of Setauket, he is not prepared for the fervency that is Halloween. In Robert’s opinion, Halloween doesn’t even count as a holiday; on the contrary, it’s a shameless cash grab by commercial America, one last desperate attempt to squeeze money from delusional parents and children before the great farce that is the Christmas season.
Or four times Robert refuses to celebrate Halloween, and one time he does.

Summary
Amy Peale, a 23 year old historian, somehow goes back in time where she meets her ancestor, Charles Peale, at Valley Forge during the winter of 1777-1778. During her stay at Valley Forge, she meets a variety of influential figures which she has been fascinated with throughout her life and daydreamed about meeting, and things go very different than she imagined.
[This began as a cheesy self indulgent, self-insert fanfic and turned into something a little more serious but still self indulgent with moments of cheesiness. So, I hope you enjoy this cheesy but semi serious story of love and angst set against the backdrop of the American Revolution.]

Summary
One would think that a prestigious University such as the University of Cambridge, the second oldest University in the UK, one of the most well-known places in the entire world and home to the likes of Isaac Newton and Stephen Fry- one would think that such a place would not be as much as a hotbed for gossip as it was.
And yet Anna had been working in the Quincentennial Library at Jesus College, Cambridge for the best part of two years and she was still routinely ambushed by her colleagues, eager to impart the newest crumbs of gossip.
Anna (literally) runs into the new guy. Edmund falls in love.
