Tiffany Reisz's MEN AT WORK is a sexy, subversive triology that turns tropes on heads while delivering delight. Number two in the series takes place at Thanksgiving.

We did a deep dive back in season four.

we know there's an Original Sinners -> Priest series pipeline but I wonder if New Camelot is just as inspired by Original Sinners in different ways and not just because he met her when she was 16.

my message to any series writer, whether you're writing a TV series, a book series, a movie series, I don't care

before you continue a series you ended previously

ask yourself:

do I actually have a substantive reason to continue this, or am I just reviving characters who had their definitive endings already

Visions flashed through her mind. A fluttering of white wings. A burning arrow. Stained glass under her feet.

what erotic novel were you reading?

the red by tiffany reisz

it had such a cool premise, but the author just seemed so disinterested in the premise that she, herself thought up that she put no real plot into it (when it really could've had an interesting one) -- and, because there was no plot, there was no real character arc or development, and there was no emotional connection to anything that was happening. i didn't really understand why the main character was acting the way she was, so i didn't understand why she was enjoying herself, so i couldn't enjoy myself.

it was just

bleh

[triviareads]

Reading Feast of Sparks by Sierra Simone with the same enthusiasm I read The Prince by Tiffany Reisz except more because the "present day" scenes don't bore the shit out of me.

Tell me this isn't the bby Kingsley/Søren experience:

“Don’t confuse love with romance, young lady. Romance is beautiful, it’s a gesture, it’s a walk in a park with a pretty girl. Love is ugly sometimes. It’s a crawl into a war zone to save a friend. Romance whispers sweet nothings. Love tells painful truths. Romance gives an engagement ring. Love takes a bullet.”

— Tiffany Reisz

[liquorisce]

I'm so obsessed with priest AU. And I just neeeeed to read a book or fanfic with something like it 😭🥺 Do you have any suggestions?

omg yayyy im glad you like it! cant wait to share it in long form in the zine that is coming out later this year!! <3

if you like priest kink fics, the priest by sierra simone is a classic. the second in the trilogy, the sinner is also great!

if you want something that gets a bit darker you can check out the siren by tiffany reisz!

[littlefreya]

Do you read smut novels? And if so do you have any recommendations?

Hey love, I do tend to read erotic novels every now and then, however, the queen of recommendation on that genre is @wolvesandhoundshowltogether. So if you want, feel free to leave her an ask. She'll be more than happy to assist. I'm more of a fantasy/horror/thrillers/historical and magical realism savvy :)

Now onward to my recommendations.

Landscape with Animals - Cameron S. Redfern

This is one of the first erotic novels I bought and read and even though it's been almost 20 years since then I can never forget about the journey it took me through. The main characters are nameless and we know very little of their past and current lives. What we do know is that their relationship is quite the taboo...

At some sense it feels a bit like voyeurism as we get a chance to experience their very intense, feral and doomed relationship. While this is not a classic plot-book and more driven by the characters' perspective, it's loaded with emotions and will get you hooked.

More under the cut

Wicked Intentions by Elizabeth Hoyt

It was only a few paragraphs ago where I mentioned loving thrillers! So this book is actually a combo of historical thriller and passionate erotic romance. What grasp me is how evocative and how well written it is, and of course I can't say no to murder mystery.

More books under the cut

Beautiful Stranger - Christina Lauren

Allow me to give you the synopsis from Goodread

Escaping a cheating ex, finance whiz Sara Dillon’s moved to New York City and is looking for excitement and passion without a lot of strings attached. So meeting the irresistible, sexy Brit at a dance club should have meant nothing more than a night’s fun. But the manner—and speed—with which he melts her inhibitions turns him from a one-time hookup and into her Beautiful Stranger.

I think that's nuff said. Mr sexy brit reminded me of a certain agent Walker throughout the story. And it definitely delivers as promised.

The Red: An Erotic Fantasy - Tiffany Reisz

Another book that Marta texted me with "sfsafka Freya!!! you must read it, ASAP"

Yet another mysterious british man making our dear protagonist an offer she cannot refuse. Or is it? This book has quite the delicious surprise... and the smut is... top notch. It's not as romantic as its debaucherous.

The Chief - Monica McCarty

Currently reading this one, though quite slowly. This is another book recommend to me by Marta. Historical romance, highlands 👀 and again, really well written.

The Lost Story: A Novel by Meg Shaffer US pub date - 7/16/24

Having been fortunate to read an early copy of The Wishing Game and adoring it, I was just as lucky to receive an invitation to read The Lost Story which I knew I had to read the second I could - growing up I absolutely loved the Narnia books (4th grade Scholastic book fair, ftw), have continued to love a good fairy tale and while I read the synopsis for this, I was immediately sold. 

Once I started this, I read it over a day as it was pure magic. With each chapter, I fell more and more in love with this story; it just kept getting better, and I didn’t want to stop reading. 

*The bit about fairy godmothers made me tear up. 

*And the romance? omg, omg, OMG! Chef’s kiss.

*The secondary characters are vivid. 

Gorgeous and perfect, I read The Lost Story with the utmost pleasure; it’s the best book I’ve read so far this year and has my highest recommendation,  I hope you love it as much I did ❤️

*I’m going to pre-order this as an audiobook. 

**I truly hope there will be more to this 😍

***Stevie Nicks is a goddess, the High Priestess, who really does transcend space and time

****thank you for sharing such a beautiful story with us, @meg_shaffer

*****I’m also going to add Tiffany Reisz’s books to my list. 

Thank you to Ballantine and NetGalley for the DRC

[hawnks]

not really a romance book but dark ish (well. kinky) - the original sinners series by Tiffany Reisz actually did something for me. dunno if you’d like it bc it does get fucked up and dubious, but it also carries such heart in a surprising way
