I've always loved those vintage romance covers that featured Fabio and some random woman. They were so majestic that when I wrote my own romance books I knew I had to make some of my own, but make them gay!

❤️ Friends to Lovers
🔥 Happy Ending
💜 First Time
🎇 Hurt/Comfort
👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨 Found Family

Prepare to lose yourself in three spicy, gender-bent fairy‑tale rebirths.

🐋 Drown Me Gently: A love that refuses to stay buried in whispering tides.
💰 Rob Me Blindly: Sapphic heists crafted from longing, not gold.
🌴 Wish Me Freely: The true wish is freedom—wild, dangerous, irresistible.

🌿🏹 Meet the couple you're about to be obsessed with:

🧝♀️ Robin: outlaw, heartthrob, cottagecore chaos incarnate. Sharp with a bow, softer with her love.
🌸 Marian: noble in childhood, rebel by choice. Dagger hidden in her skirts and poetry in her soul.
