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. -

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.

Edmund returns home to Scotland after leaving America hoping to find some peace of mind. When his sister finds out about the reason for his swift departure from America and his broken heart, she vows to do everything she can to see her brother happy again, even if this means breaking the law and blackmailing a man she has never met. Things come to a head when Edmund is summoned back to America by Spyhunter-General Benedict Arnold. Once again close to Anna, will the two find back together? And how will his sibling's dabblings in spying, intelligence-gathering and playing senior officers on both sides of the conflict off against each other affect the outcome?

Summary
Abraham Woodhull doesn't entirely want to acknowledge why he ended up living on Ben and Caleb's couch but he wants off. He doesn't want to be 28 and still living with friends or with his father—definitely not his father. Going back to law school is his only option left to salvage a decent future, which proves to be difficult when he finds memories of his late brother everywhere. However, encouragement is found in the strangest of places. When Abe finds quiet refuge in a new coffee shop to study in, he does not expect to enjoy the company of Robert, the man behind the counter. Neither of them could have possibly anticipated what meeting each other means for their futures, especially since they seem to clash.
