Y’know how superheroes with enhanced senses can hear heartbeats. And they can tell people apart and recognize them by their heartbeat cause everyone’s is a little different. Why is that low-key romantic and high-key adorable?

I published a story!!

If you're interested in reading, it's available on KU.

Stars in the Sky is a high heat short romance between two wildly famous superhumans - Maeve Black, an A-List actress with the ability to manipulate gravity, and Patriot, America's greatest living superhero. Though the pair have always shared somewhat of an antagonistic relationship, they find themselves drawn to one another when they become overwhelmed by the swanky Hollywood party they're attending.

I've always wanted to write a superhero romance, focusing on the drama of the interpersonal relationships of the characters rather than having the main focus be on the action. I've held off on publishing very much in this genre since I know there isn't a huge market for it, but if I'm being true to myself, it's what I want to write, so I may as well publish and share with likeminded readers. If this doesn't find an audience, at least I had fun writing it!

There's been a lot of gritty twists on classic superheroes as of late in both comics and on TV, and as I eat it all up, I'm throwing my hat into the ring with my own take on the edgy superhero trend.

***

Stars in the Sky does not have a happy ending. It leaves our main characters feeling a little lost after a fleeting moment of connection. This is because while this short story can be read as a stand-alone piece, it’s meant to set the stage for a superhero flavored romantic drama I intend to follow this with.

The short story takes place some months before the drama kicks off, and it follows our protagonist, Maeve, on her mission to improve the lives of her fellow superhumans.

Patriot will return in the drama as a major character, alongside another major character who does not appear in the short story—the man who originally set all of this in motion.

Time travel, save the world... and fall in love.

Oasis has been the superhero SwordBright for longer than anyone might expect. All went well for a while, and then the world got destroyed. So now, back in time in their 20 years old body, they need the help of their local super villain if they want to prevent all this from happening again.

Karry is technically an eldrich god-monster trapped in a human body, but she’s been pretending to be the super villain «The Vampire Queen» for decades now. It’s fine; people fear her and her nemesis is an idiot child with a sword, which makes her job quite easy. But then Oasis shows up at her door, asking her help with preventing a tyrant from rising to power, and all her carefully laid plans start to crumble.

Time moves ever onward, and sometimes, there’s nothing but a blurry line separating heroes from monsters.

Hey all! Do you like free books? Do you like time travel fix-its? Vampires? Nonbinary Canadian superheroes?! Then you might like SwordBright!

Read it for free now on Tapas! More than 50k words already (that’s the lenght of a small novel!) and more coming soon.

✩🦸‍♂️💜Review:

Where have superhero romance novels been all my life?!?

I thoroughly enjoyed this new genre of writing that Zapata explored in ”When Gracie Met the Grump.” It was really easy to become fully immersed in the fictional world she created because it is modeled after our own with the only difference being the presence of superheroes. As a huge Marvel and DC Comics fan, I was immediately intrigued by the Trinity, the Zapata equivalent of the Avengers and the Justice League. Gracie’s interactions with The Defender after he crash lands in her yard slowly reveal bits and pieces surrounding the Trinity’s relation to mankind and each other, their unique abilities, and the thinking behind who they choose to save. Zapata’s choice to withhold information until the very last moment maintained a sense of mystery that kept me engaged to the very last page. 

Aside from the superheroes, another aspect I loved about the book was the relationship development between Gracie and The Defender. The two start out as strangers and quickly become “temporary friends” when they are kidnapped by the cartel. With The Defender out of commission, Gracie prioritizes his needs over her own to nurture him back to health and increase their chances of escape. Gracie’s willingness to care for him despite her precarious situation is what ultimately convinces The Defender to let down his walls and let her be “best friend number 20” (in actuality, she holds the number 1 spot). 

While he still gives Gracie a hard time on occasion with his grouchiness, The Defender proves to be a big softie by the novel’s end. I love how protective he is of Gracie, how he goes above and beyond to ensure she feels safe, and how he finds ways to make her dreams come true after living such a sheltered life. Most of all I love how Zapata took her time establishing the intricacies and depth of their friendship before gradually delving into their romantic relationship.

REVIEW: Just Mr Love by Mimi Jean Pamfiloff (ARC)

Click the image to buy on Amazon Summary Is he a love machine or a weapon of mass destruction?My name is Huff, and I used to be a wimpy nerd, but after an unfortunate event, I now have the strength of a hundred men along with other interesting abilities. Even my, eh-hem, man part is pretty special—a recent discovery. “I can’t believe it can do that!”No one knows exactly how this happened, but…

[text-ink-png]

The hero looked around the alley and startled as they saw two amber eyes staring right back at them. They cautiously backed away, hoping that the villain would at least give them a chance to explain.

"I've been waiting." The low rumble of the villain's voice brought goosebumps on the hero's arms. They were truly in trouble. The villain's usual jovial mood and happy demeanor were nowhere to be seen.

Oh no, they were truly in trouble.

"Look, I-" The hero fumbled, wringing their fingers nervously. "I know I messed up. It was just too nerve-wracking. Going against my mentor...I tried but honestly the pressure caught up to me. I was thinking that I was all alone but I was still trying, but then the media showed up which meant it was live and everyone was-"

"How is your leg?"

"Huh?" The hero stopped blabbering and looked at villain's face. The villain's face did not give away any signs of anger but it almost seemed...worried? No, the shadows from the street lights must be messing up villain's face.

"Your leg. I watched the broadcast and you took a terrible fall. Let me look at it."

The hero hurriedly stepped back as the villain reached for their leg. Was this some other kind of punishment for messing up? The hero had often heard rumors of the villain's brutal methods. Was this one of the tortures?

"Hero" The Hero stilled, shaking in fear as the Villain stood in front of them, daring them to take another step. They flinched as the villain bent down to observe their leg. They felt a warm hand rest on their knee. Oh lord, were they going to snap their knee?

The hero relaxed as they felt warmth seep into their leg from villain's palm. Right, they had heard about villain's ability to heal. The warmth seemed to be pressing a comforting hand to their back as if beckoning them to take rest.

The hero felt their body hit the ground but felt no pain. No, they felt as if they were in heaven, floating through clouds while angels sang in their ears.

One such angel looked down at them and shook their head. They ruffled hero's hair and whispered, "What am I supposed to do with you?" The angel was truly beautiful.

Oh, the hero must be in some kind of trouble.
