About

This is a home for romantic fiction. We write short stories where real world elements, fantasy elements and intimacy exist side by side.

Here you’ll find tales of haunted houses, strange magic, impossible bargains, and the kinds of love stories that rarely follow simple rules.

You'll also find stories with a slice of life feeling: work, cozy moments, and everything in between.

Some of these stories take place in worlds that feel familiar at first glance: a house, somewhere in the past, peaceful forests, until something hidden beneath the surface begins to reveal itself.

Or sometimes in an every day setting that you can relate to.

We also love a good trope and moments when two people realize their lives have just become entangled in ways neither of them expected.
