Start Here

If you’re looking for escapist, whimsical, happily-ever-afters with all the swoon and banter but none of the spice, you’ve come to the right place. Here you will find low-stakes, cozy, life-affirming, closed-door romance in two deliciously unique flavors. All on offer are standalones because the need for more HEA is very real. It’s one of the reasons you read after all.

Now all you have to do is pick where to start.

Which will you choose?

Option 1: Enchantment Retold is a series of standalone fairy tale retellings. Some fairy tales you may have heard of; others might be less familiar. All feature a closed-door MF romance (that’s a male hero and female heroine falling for each other) with a supporting cast of inclusive side characters and some of the swooniest, escapist romantasy you’ll ever read. Swears are minimal or completely absent. Violence is minimal. More detailed content advisories can be found on each individual books page.

If this option sounds like the right one for you, I recommend starting with the novella, Curses, Diamonds, & Toads, provided its content advisory aligns with your reading preferences. This novella can be enjoyed in a single sitting and is free to newsletter subscribers. Your time is precious, and this little HEA is a great way to judge if the Enchantment Retold fairy tales are right for you.

Option 2: Escape to Love is a series of interconnected standalone cosplay rom-coms set in contemporary San Diego. If you love geek culture and enjoy a good con, these might be just right for you. Particularly if hidden identity is a trope you can’t get enough of. These rom-coms are all closed-door, swear-free, MF romances with a supporting cast of inclusive side characters. No violence but they do explore some heavier topics. Be sure to read their content advisories before diving in.

If you are craving more cosplay and love flying your geek flag, you will love these books. They can be read in any order, but start with My Cosplay Escape, if you’re unsure.
