OMG!

Not really sure what happened today, but I’m really happy that I managed to take care of the 10 drafts I made yesterday and throw a lot of new insane ships in the universe.

You never know who might be listening ;)

So as recap from today, here’s what we had (with the links):

My always beloved Nuada x Gretel ship from “About elves and witch hunters” (I seriously need to organize those snippets in some kind of narrative);

Sansa x Roan circling each other;

Gretel x Darth Maul trying not to kill each other;

Scarlett x Darth Maul feeling that magnetic connection;

“All I see is red” taking off before the fluff begins (future 47 x Scarlett and Katia x Snake Eyes)

Madam M X Storm Shadow as the ship I always needed;

Vampire Lady Margaery Tyrell x Lucian in an Underworld AU;

Werewolf Alpha Sansa x Marcus also in an Underworld AU;

Castiel x Bee showing that demons and angel can (kind of) get along just fine;

Sherlock x Irene meeting really early on.

I hope you guys had as much fun as I did with all of these today. Remember you can also count on the tags to take you to your favorite ships, and there’s awlays the chance that there are more posts about them than you’d’ve imagined ;)

Also, requests are still open, but only until the end of the week. So if you have something in mind, let me know before it’s too late!! You can find the rules here.

Cheers!

Looking for a Romance this Valentine’s Day?

So, every publication and blogger is putting out a Valentine’s Day romance list, and we are nothing if not followers. We’ve assembled a large list (33 Books) of a mix of traditionally and indie published books. All of the books on this list are ones we’ve read and feel comfortable recommending. And they all fit the definition of romance - a story where the relationship is central to the overall plot and features a happy for now or happily every after ending.

We’re going to break this down into several categories because not everyone reads Regency romances (but we are going to start there).

Regency Romance

These are books set between 1795-1837. While the Regency itself was only from 1811-1820 most people use these dates including Wikipedia. This was honestly one of the hardest for us to narrow down, mostly because it’s the dominant genre in traditionally published romance -- even Contemporary doesn’t hold a candle to Regency right now.

Sweet Disorder - Rose Lerner - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Election hijinks ensue when the local election hinges on who the widowed wife of a newspaper printer marries. Other Notes: Plus-Sized Heroine, Family Drama, Disabled Characters, Everyday People Falling in Love, Marginalized Author (Jewish).

The Baroness Affair - Jean Wilde - M/M/F Romance (Steamy) - A desperate noblewoman enlists the help of a male courtesan to help her get pregnant... no it’s not what you think. Other Notes: Equal Triad Polyamory, Period Appropriate Homophobia, LBGT Romance, Family Drama.

How To Start a Scandal - Madeline Martin - M/F Romance (Steamy) - A wallflower and secret society reporter reconnects with the Earl Next Door who’s recently returned from the war. Other Notes: Plus-Sized Heroine, Family Drama, Positive Mental Illness Portrayal, Cute Plot Animals.

Project Duchess - Sabrina Jeffries - M/F Romance (Steamy) - A duke returns to his family after the mysterious death of his stepfather, yet another duke, only to be enchanted by a woman who has a connection to the last person to see his stepfather alive. Other Notes: Older Heroine (the whole series features these), Romantic Suspense Series, family drama. I’m really enjoying the whole series and it’s worth a read.

The Rakess - Scarlett Peckham - M/F Romance (Steamy) - This is a love it or hate it kind of book that flips so many of the conventional romance tropes on its ear. It features a hard-drinking, hard-smoking, highly sexual woman who authors progressive literature and causes a scandal just by living her life meeting up with a mild-mannered reputation conscious Scottish Architect with two small children. Even the cover flips the script on the classic clinch cover. I loved it. A lot people didn’t. Other notes: Period appropriate sexism/hypocrisy/etc., CW: alcoholism, neighbors to lovers, adorable plot moppets.

Paranormal Romance

These are romances that feature a fantastical element. This can be anything from vampires to shifters to time travel. These also will often be series which may or may not continue with the same relationship throughout several books.

Hot Ghost - Annika Martin - M/F Romance (Steamy) - A waitress finds love with the ghost who haunts the pier near her family’s restaurant. Other Notes: Major Character Death (It’s a Ghost Romance...), Everyday People Falling in Love, Novella.

Accepting Fate - Deanna Chase - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Fresh from a bad break up, a woman meets her soulmate at an art gallery opening. Together they have to work through their trauma and find out if they can be happy together. Other Notes: Childhood trauma, Fire Fighter Romance, Soulmates, Artists.

Gretel - Niamh Murphy - F/F Romance (Steamy) - A retelling of the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel with a very interesting twist. Other Notes: Age-Gap Romance, Novella.

One Shade of Grey - Monica Corwin - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Dorian Grey, yes that one, has a bit of a problem. He keeps seeing a woman who he thinks is the reincarnation of his lost love. But is she really? Or is he going insane? Other Notes: Positive Portrayal of Mental Illness, Classical Story Retelling, Billionaire Romance, Immortality

Tangled in Time - Barbara Longley - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Cursed to see spirits, Regan is approached by the spirit of a cursed Irish warrior. Now they must work together to lift his curse and fall in love along the way. Other Notes: Fae Romance, Time Travel Romance, Ghost Romance.

Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites - Joy Demorra - M/M/F Romance (Steamy or Fluffy) - A vampire, a werewolf, and a magic user walk into a plot to end the world. Of course they have to fall in love along the way. Other Notes: Vampire Romance, Werewolf Romance, Magic User Romance, LBGT Fantasy Romance, Bisexual Romance, Postive Mental Illness representation, Marginalized Author (Disabled, Queer, Neurodivergent).

Erotic Romance

These are books where the sex is as much a part of the romance as the rest of the story. The plots here tend to be thinner, but they’re still present and important. This is not smut for smut’s sake. The relationship is important too. All of these are going to rate high on the steam.

After Hours - Lynda Aicher - M/F Romance - An executive assistant accidentally observes an after hours orgy in one of the boardrooms. Rather than be repulsed, she’s aroused. And up for more. Other Notes: Workplace Romance, Voyeurism, Exhibitionism, Mild BDSM, Boss/Subordinate Relationship.

Loving Maddie from A to Z - Kelly Jamison - M/M/F Romance - An outwardly happy couple looks to add something to their relationship by inviting their friend into their home and bed. Other Notes: Polyamory, BDSM, Big City Romance.

Ever After - Eden French - M/M/F Romance - An erotic modern retelling of the Cinderella fairy tale featuring billionaires, celebrities, and lots of hot sex. Other Notes: Interracial Romance, Polyamory, Billionaire Romance, CW: Child Abuse.

Test Drive - N.S. Johnson - M/F Romance - A so-called good girl finds that she’s really not when she falls for the leader of a street racing crew. Other Notes: Polyamory, CW: Infidelity, Interracial Romance, Reverse Harem, Recreational Drug Use, Author of Color.

Other Historical Romance

These are romances set outside of the Regency but not during contemporary periods. A lot of old school romances tend to be this because medieval was big then. But it also includes everything up to 1990 too... Yeah... I know... I feel old.

Let It Shine - Alyssa Cole - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Set during the civil rights movement, this story follows two young people struggling to find their voice and love amidst the turmoil of the 1960s. Other Notes: Interracial Romance, Period Appropriate Racism, Period Appropriate Anti-Semitism, Author of Color, Sports Romance, Novella.

In Pursuit Of... - Courtney Milan - M/M Romance (Steamy) - Set immediately after the American War for Independence it features a British soldier falling in love with a Black man who fought for the American side. Other Notes: Interracial Romance, Romantic Comedy, period appropriate racism, author of color, Novella.

Bringing Down the Duke - Evie Dunmore - M/F Romance (Steamy) - A rare female scholar tries to keep her scholarship going while also crusading for the rights of women in Victorian England. Other Notes: Alpha Hero, Clueless Heroine.

Contemporary Romance

These romances are set in the last 25 years and run the gamut of tropes.

Get a Life, Chloe Brown - Talia Hibbert - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Sick of living her life wrapped in tissue paper, Chloe Brown sets off to live a little. And to do that, she needs the help of her building’s manager. Other Notes: Plus-Sized Heroine, Interracial Romance, Disabled Characters, Positive Portrayal of Mental Illness, Marginalized Author (Black). As a note the sequel Take a Hint, Dani Brown is just as good and features a Bisexual Woman of Color.

Beg, Borrow, or Steal - Susie Tate - M/F Romance (Fluffy) - A medical student has to juggle the needs of being a single mother, a student, and paying the bills. And if that means she’s got to take off her clothes to do that, that’s what she’s going to do. Too bad she keeps falling asleep in class. Other Notes: No Sex (No really), But also Super sex positive, Student/Teacher Relationship, Adorable Plot Moppet.

Soft Hands - Ariel Bishop - M/M Romance (Steamy) - A professional Hockey Player ends up falling for the team trainer and massage therapist. Other Notes: Bisexual Rep, Sports Romance, Interracial Romance.

The Year We Fell Down - Sarina Bowen - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Two people who’ve suffered from accidents which have left them disabled find each other at a Harvard Expy. While one of the characters only has a temporary disability (broken leg) it still fucking counts. Other Notes: New Adult Romance, Disabled characters, Sports Romance, College Romance.

Small Town Romance

A subgenre of Contemporary Romance, these are books set in a small town and often the stakes tend to be pretty low. They can run the range of no-sex to lots of steam. They are also often VERY WHITE. While many are set in America, they can also be set elsewhere with Australia and the British Isles being the most common other settings.

Falling for Her Brother’s Best Friend - Noelle Adams - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Who doesn’t love a small town romance featuring characters that used to be childhood friends becoming more? Other Notes: New Adult Romance.

The Last One - Tawdra Kandle - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Meghan, an art student, and Sam, a farmer, and how they meet in small-town Georgia when Meghan comes to teach art over the summer to the kids in town…and ends up staying with Sam and his family. Other Notes: Alpha Male Hero.

If Wishes Were Horses - Caitlyn Lynch - M/F Romance (Steamy) - When an Aussie woman inherits partial ownership in a horse ranch in Ireland, sparks fly. Other Notes: Novella, Irish Romance.

Old School Romance

These are romances that were written before the rise of indie publishing where white men had the power and it shows. These are what people point to when they reduce romance novels to just “bodice rippers” but even then they weren’t just that.  BTW none of these books feature Fabio so suck it!

Skye O’Malley - Bertrice Small - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Daughter of a small Irish lord, this book follows Skye through her life and romances across England, Ireland, and even Algeria. It’s wild and all over the place and is not your typical romance novel. It ends on a HEA but there is a JOURNEY. But gods it’s one of my old-school faves. Other Notes: Major Character Death. Non-Con, Pirates, Interracial Romance, Historical Domain Characters, This is not your typical romance. I like the whole series... but that’s a me thing.

The Traveling Matchmaker Series - Marion Chesney/M.C Beaton - M/F Romance (Fluffy) - A housekeeper inherits a large sum of money and decides to use it to travel about England. Along the way, she makes matches for the other passengers of the stagecoach she’s traveling on while getting into all sorts of adventures. This series is pure fluff and I love it. Other Notes: Period appropriate xenophobia, Age Gap Romance.

Remembrance - Jude Deveraux - M/F Romance (Steamy) - A romance novelist discovers that the reason she hasn’t found love is because of an issue with her past life. So she decides to do something about it... only to find it’s just the very tip of the story. Other Notes: Time Travel Romance, Past Lives, Meta... so very meta.

Desire in Disguise - Rebecca Brandewyne - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Look this is set during the French Revolution and features duelling (quite literally) pirates. This is a wild ride and it’s so old school it hurts. Other Notes: Alpha hero, mistaken identity, enemies to lovers, spies, pirates, But oh so many problematic tropes. This looks to be out of print... so check your local library.

Gentle Warrior - Julie Garwood - M/F Romance (Steamy) - Set right after the Norman Invasion of England, this features a Norman Lord who was granted an Anglo-Saxon wife and all of the drama that comes with. Note... this is the first Romance Novel I ever read.. My mother bought it for me when it was newish -- in 1987. Other Notes: CW: Rape, Arranged Marriage, Non-conventionally Attractive Hero.

Books that check all of the boxes of Romance but aren’t Labeled as Romance because Sexism.

Romance isn’t about sex. There’s lots of books with explicit sex in them that aren’t Romance and several with a strong romantic relationship that drives the plot which ends happily and satisfying. But sexism is a thing and so here we are.

The Princess Bride - William Goldman - M/F Romance (Fluffy) - You’ve probably seen the movie. The book is also fun. And since the romance is central to the plot AND the ending is a happy one (especially in the movie) it qualifies.

The Hunger Games Trilogy - Suzanne Collins - M/F Romance (Fluffy) - Look who would have thought that in a book about kids killing each other and the violence of war that Romance would play that big of a role? But it does. And it is. And it’s important.

Katherine - Anya Seton - M/F Romance (Fluffy) - This could feasibly go into Old School Romance, but apparently the publishers have decided to downplay the actual romance and try to sell this as literature. It follows the real-life Romance between Katherine Swineford and the Duke of Lancaster. 

Did we leave off any of your favorites? It’s probably because we haven’t read them! We always like recs, especially featuring marginalized authors or main characters with marginalized identities.

If you like this kind of thing, consider leaving us a tip in our Ko-Fi!

Grimmtober Day 11: Little Red Riding Hood

When Little Red Cap entered the woods a wolf came up to her. She did not know what a wicked animal he was, and was not afraid of him.

--

This story has an ATU of 333, and is popular fairy tale in pop culture. The Grimm’s tale isn’t the original, but it’s the one that most of these retellings are based on. The interesting thing about the Grimm’s version is that both brothers were told different versions of the tale. One went into the main story, and the other went into the sequel. The first one goes like this:

A young girl was asked by her mother to take a basket of wine and cake to her ailing grandmother who lived in the woods. She gave her strict instructions to stay on the public path and not wander into the woods. The girl grabs the basket, fastens a red velvet cap gifted to her by her grandmother, and sets on the way.

As she skips along the public path, a hungry wolf spots her and approaches. Little Red Cap is not afraid, for she does not know how wicked the wolf is. He asks her where she is going and what she has in her basket, and she answers innocently. He then asks where her grandma’s house is, and she replies honestly. The wolf gets to thinking how delicious the little girl would taste, and if he was lucky, he could get the grandmother too and fill up his belly.

He asks Little Red Cap why she isn’t enjoying her trip to the woods, drawing her attention to it’s beauty, and slips away while she is distracted. Little Red Cap, convinced by his words, strays from the path when she sees beautiful flowers. She begins plucking a bouquet for her grandmother, each flower taking her deeper and deeper in the woods.

The wolf, meanwhile, heads straight to the grandmother’s house, and pretends to be Little Red Cap when he walks through the door. The Grandmother asks him to enter, and in one swift jump he ate her up. Then he dresses in grandma’s gown and cap, gets into the bed, pulls the covers up to his chin and waits.

When Little Red Cap finally arrives, she feels a strange dread. She reaches the door only to find that it was open. She calls out to her grandmother but receives no response. Pulling back the curtain she sees her grandmother in bed, looking very strange.

(You all know this bit)

“Oh, grandmother, what big ears you have!"

"All the better to hear you with."

"Oh, grandmother, what big eyes you have!"

"All the better to see you with."

"Oh, grandmother, what big hands you have!"

"All the better to grab you with!"

"Oh, grandmother, what a horribly big mouth you have!"

"All the better to eat you with!"

And with that the wolf jumps out, and gobbles up Little Red Cap. But now, with a full belly and comfortable bed, the wolf gives into his desire to go to sleep. A passing huntsman hears wolf’s snores and grows suspicious. He enters the cabin to find the wolf, who he had been hunting for a long time.

He’s about to shoot the creature when it occurs to him that it may have eaten the grandmother, so he takes a large pair of scissors and cuts open the wolf’s stomach and both Little Red Cap and grandma came crawling out. They then fill up his stomach with stones and sew it back up. When he woke up and tried to runaway, he was weighed down by the rocks and fell down dead.

Little Red Cap never strayed from the path again.

In the sequel (Wilhelm’s version), Little Red Cap stays on the path despite the wolf approaching her. When she reaches her grandmother’s house, she tells her about the wolf, and the two lock themselves in. When the wolf finds the cottage, he is unable to enter, so he decides to climb to the roof instead. He plans to catch Little Red Cap on the way out. The Grandmother is wise to his plan though, and instructs Little Red Cap to fill a stone trough with boiling water that was used to cook sausages and place the trough outside the door. The wolf smells the sausages and is lured forward. He slips and falls into the boiling water and drowns.

Pop Culture’s fascination with Little Red Riding Hood (and affiliated stories) is interesting. It’s up there with Hansel and Gretel as a don’t talk to strangers PSA, but the latter is adapted nearly as much. Little Red has seen retellings, poems, movies, even cameos in video games. And each interpretation seems to take something different from the story.

There are several common interpretations of the tale. There’s the idea that it is coming of age story about girl entering puberty (the supposed reason behind the red cloak), or as an allegory for romantic/erotic/sexually coercive relations. Little Red’s arc in Into the Woods alludes to this theme. On a more positive note, there’s Scarlett from Marissa Meyer’s Lunar Chronicles, which takes the romance angle mainly because werewolves hot.

Speaking of werewolves hot, Teen Wolf did a fun play where main character Scott wears a red hoodie on the night he gets bitten. This ties until another common interpretation - rebirth. Many people view Little Red's escape from the wolf’s stomach, and her better understanding of how the world works, as this. The game Dark Parables is kinda on the same theme with Little Red acting as a mentor for young girls, reshaping them into warriors. Some interpretations even frame the story as a fight of good versus evil, even when the evil comes from within — i.e the Little Red quest in the Witcher 3, or Ruby’s story in Once Upon a Time (SPOILER:werewolves again... I'm sensing a theme).

So what do we take away from one of the world’s best loved fairy tale and possibly first recorded phishing scam? Be wary of strangers, wolves often seem kind at first. But also, werewolves hot, so like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Book Review

Gabby Hutchinson Crouch: Such Big Teeth. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantasy, Humor, Middle Grades, Myths, Fairytales. Published 2020

Book blurb: The Battle of Nearby Village is over, and deep in the Darkwood, Gretel and her friends journey into the hostile mountains of the north, seeking new allies in their fight against the huntsmen. There they find Gilde the Bear Witch, along with a Werewolf named Scarlett and a winged man named Hex. Meanwhile, Hansel and Daisy set off on a dangerous trip of their own to the Citadel, where they end up in the middle of a political battle for the future of the whole country.

My review: I adored this, Book 2 in the Darkwood Series. A great series for the middle schoolers, just as much fun as book 1. Excellent, engaging characters and story - this old geezer loved it. Recommended. Thanks to NetGalley and Farrago/Duckworth Books for the ebook ARC. #SuchBigTeeth #NetGalley

A while back you mentioned which performers you envision when writing the characters in your Wicked Fanfics. I was wondering who do you envision as the parents of the Wicked characters (Frex, Ibrihim, Kasmira, etc.)? Personally for me, especially after seeing Maleficent, I always think of Kasmira looking like Michelle Pfeifer.

Ooh, good question. Especially because the more I write the characters, the more they change into my own version of them, and the more actors I see in the role, if that makes sense. 

Frex is mostly Nathan Carter, the Australian actor that I saw in the role my first five shows. 

Melena is based on Gretel Scarlett for the same reason- I saw her in the role my first seven shows. I haven’t written Melena a whole bunch, so she hasn’t changed from that too much. (I wish I could show a picture of her in costume, but there isn’t many and I couldn’t find any). 

Kasmira is tricky- I had to really go back and think what I was imagining when I first wrote her, because I ended up working with someone who was very much like Kasmira, so that’s the image I mostly have in my head now. But I’m pretty sure I was picturing Elizabeth Reaser originally (Esme Cullen from the Twilight movies). 

And for Ibrahim, I always think of him as David Boreanaz. I could not tell you why- there’s always the chance I was just watching something with him in it around the time I started writing Ibrahim (probably Bones). He just has the looks and the personality I was going for. (Again, this is what I think I was thinking. It’s been 9 years since I started writing them). 

Thanks for the ask!
