I never thought a hallmark show would end up with one of the most toxic fandoms I’ve ever seen, but that’s what happened to When Calls The Heart. It all could have been avoided if they hadn’t done an overly drawn out love triangle for two years in order to drive up ratings, then after the decision and engagement, flipped the script again. I almost loathe the color red now, since it’s become a symbol of the nastiness. Since when are Mounties the only men worthy of love??

Book Rec!

If you like Regency era romance and Beauty and the Beast, you must read Seeking Persephone by Sarah M. Eden. It’s AMAZING! (Romance is closed door, but still oozes chemistry!)

I miss the days when my favorite characters weren’t always being turned into creepy stalkers and/or mob bosses. Give me some canon goodness, please!!

Signed, a sweet romance fan.

"READ MY DNI" no. use your block button like an adult. i'm not scrolling through the many-paragraphs-long pinned posts of every blog i reblog something from. if you insist certain types of people aren't welcome in the notes of your posts then it's your responsibility to curate that. or choose a closed social media platform like facebook or instagram. or go and live in a barn away from humanity if you really don't like sharing the world with people who are different from you

Masterlist / Celebration Masterlist

You let out an irritated huff as you tried to get your monstrosity of a ball gown to rest comfortably. It was a lost cause though, the corset was digging in (why they were back in fashion you had no clue, they belonged in the 16th century, not the 21st) and the puffy skirt ruffled loudly with every movement. Your hair was pinned up so tightly that you had a permanent headache and the heels you wore were torturous.

The company around you wasn’t much better. You really wished you were anywhere else than this damned ball. Honestly, you didn’t even need to be at this ball. Yes, it was hosted by your father the king, and yes the main point was for you to socialise and meet potential suitors. But it's not like you’ll actually get to choose your suitor, so your presence wasn’t really required.

So when you got the opportunity you made the excuse that you needed to go to the bathroom and made your escape. As soon as you were out of the heaving ballroom you decided you needed some air before heading back to your bedroom. 

Once you stepped outside you kicked off your heels, plucked the tiara from your hair and pulled out the pins to let your hair lie naturally once more. You leant back against the cool stone walls, took a few deep breaths and appreciated the silence.

That silence was disrupted when you heard a male voice call out from around the corner “no, no, no you stupid squid!” 

Curiosity got the better of you and you walked around the corner to spot the man sat down on one of the stone benches out on the balcony. As you approached you spotted a laptop set down beside him and he had a Nintendo Switch in his hands.

“I’m guessing you’re playing MarioKart and not fighting a squid,” you said grabbing his attention.

The man startled as he looked over his shoulder at you. You bit your lip to stop yourself from smiling too much. he was a very attractive man, maybe not in the conventional sense, but you loved his bleached-tipped hair, glasses and goatie. You could also tell he was pretty ripped underneath his suit and you could easily get lost in his blue eyes.

“I-i oh uh- I” he stuttered.

You smiled at him, enamoured by how flustered he was “Relax” you chuckled “I’d rather be playing MarioKart than be in there” you said gesturing over your shoulder with your thumb. 

He let out a relieved chuckle and smiled back at you “I’m working security so I’m stuck here all night” he explained.

You tilted your head in confusion “I don’t recognise you, are you new to the team?” you asked. 

The man shakes his head “No, I’m special services, the king decided to bring in some extra staff to make sure the princess stays safe” he explains. 

Your brows pinch in confusion at the way he referred to you in the third person, did he know who you were? It would be a nice change of pace if he didn’t, you hated the way people acted around you just because of the title you were given when you were born. 

“And how are you doing that by playing MarioKart?” you asked him. 

The man looks at you sheepishly “I’m a tech specialist so I’ve got a system running alongside the CCTV scanning for anyone that might cause trouble or harm” he explained as he pointed over to the laptop “I’m Jake Jensen by the way, everyone just calls me Jensen though” he added holding his hand out to you. 

You smiled at him softly “Nice to meet you Jake” you said shaking his hand “Mind if I join?” you asked pointing to the spot next to him on the bench. 

“Sure” Jake smiled “So do you go to these sorts of things often?” he asked as you sat down and tried to pat down your puffy dress. 

“If I have to, but I do try to avoid it if I can” you explained with a long sigh “It really isn’t my scene”

“I don’t blame you, it seems like a whole lot of fuss” Jake admitted as he glanced over his shoulder towards the party “But I guess it must be cool to say you know the royal family” he added as he nudged you with his elbow “I bet you’re besties with the princess”

You snort with laughter, he definitely had no clue who you were and you weren’t about to correct him “Oh yeah we’re like this close” you said crossing your fingers over each other. 

“Very cool, so does the best friend of the princess wanna play some MarioKart or do you need to get back in there?” he asked offering you one of the joycons from his switch. 

“I’m never going back in” You smirked as you took the joycon from him. 

You stayed outside with Jake for the next couple of hours, chatting, having fun and playing MarioKart. You could easily say it was the best time you’ve had in a really long time and if you were honest you were falling for him. Yes, it had only been a couple of hours but surely you don’t need any longer for the right person?

You had just finished another race when he put his joycon down with a heavy sigh “I think I’ve officially met my match” he grinned. 

You chuckled warmly over at him “I think I can say the same thing” you grinned. 

Silence fell between the two of you, but not the uncomfortable kind. The kind where it seemed like the universe was holding its breath waiting for a life-changing moment to occur. You couldn’t help but nibble your lower lip when you noticed his gaze drop to your lips. You hadn’t even realised that you were leaning in until his hand cupped your cheek and his lips met your in a soft and gentle kiss. 

You instantly smiled into the kiss and you were pretty sure there were fireworks exploding around you. Your hand rested on his chest as the kiss deepened and it became almost impossible to pull apart. 

Eventually, you did, and it was perfectly timed as your father’s private secretary walked out onto the balcony looking for you. 

“Ah there you are, your father is looking for you” he said as he walked over to you. 

“Sorry I went to get some air and was just about to retire to my bedroom” you explained as you stood back up. 

“Of course, I’m sure he won’t keep you long,” he said gesturing for you to go ahead. 

You nodded with a small forced smile, your father probably just wanted to know who caught your eye and you doubted that he wanted you to say it was the security guard. You looked back at Jake and gave him a warm smile “Thank you for keeping me company, I hope to see you again soon” you smiled at him. 

“Hope to see you soon too” he smiled back at you. 

Your father’s private secretary nodded “And thank you for keeping the princess safe while she got some air” he said and you bit your lip nervously as realisation dawned on Jake’s face. 

“Told you I was pretty close” you chuckled nervously “I hope I see you again soon” you smiled.

Jake stuttered a goodbye as he held up his hand to wave you goodbye. You smiled at him softly as you waved goodbye deciding that you were going to do anything in your power to make sure you saw him again and maybe you might just convince your father to allow you to marry who you wanted. It was the 21st century after all.

I’m amazed this is getting released even though half of the audience walked out during its screening at TIFF. I have heard zero good reviews.
