He is gazing down at the other character with soft curiosity. She is a woman with dark honey blonde hair, and her green eyes are wide as she regards him with a conflicted expression, one of her hands outstretched towards him but halted. She is dressed in sleeveless leather armour, and her muscled arms are covered in scars. The text reads: A Verdant Vendetta, Aimee Donnellan, Nightwalkers of Concord. the tropes on the map read: slowburn but its weird and horny. audhd social trauma. monster hunting. golden retriever x black cat. magic eating dragon. resurrection trauma. bi4bi romantasy

Prague, 23 November 1911
Highly esteemed Mrs. Curie,
Do not laugh at me for writing you without having anything sensible to say.
But I am so enraged by the base manner in which the public is presently daring to concern itself with you!? that I absolutely must give vent to this feeling. However, I am convinced that you consistently despise this rabble, whether it obsequiously lavishes respect on you or whether it attempts to satiate its lust for sensationalism!
I am impelled to tell you how much I have come to admire your intellect, your drive, and your honesty, and that I consider myself lucky to have made your personal acquaintance in Brussels. Anyone who does not number among these reptiles is certainly happy, now as before, that we have such personages among us as you, and Langevin(3) too, real people with whom one feels privileged to be in contact. If the rabble continues to occupy itself with you, then simply don't read that hogwash, but rather leave it to the reptile for whom i

A Crimson Covenant and The Chase Begins by Aimee Donnellan

Behind ACC is digital art of two ladies standing back to back, one with brown skin and a bun of dark hair and the other with pale skin and strawberry hair.

Behind TCB is digital art of a person with brown skin, brown hair and scales across their faces, with a pale redhead woman with glasses leaning over them intimately.

✨NOVELLA 6 RELEASE DAY ✨ This book is my love letter to every funky episode with dangerous dreams and false realities. Buffy's Asylum ep, the attic episode of Dollhouse, the fracturing reality in She-Ra... all that good stuff. A fantasy series with time for character deep dives? I got you.

book cover trope graphic.

A woman with pink skin, teal hair worn in thick braids, and golden horns on her head sits with one hand pressed to her face while the other performs magic in front of her. The magic is pink and forms a spiral in front of her hand. She is dressed in a pale and long-sleeved shirt under breastplate armour that bears a crest with a rose on it. Behind the woman is a wall with simple paintings of dark red, two of which look like moons, one crescent and one full.

The text reads: The Ruin Reveals, Catastrophe Incoming: Volume VI, Aimee Donnellan, "What is illusion, but altered perception?"

tropes read:
adhd rejection sensitivity
"it's a trap"
daddy issues get their own chapter
what ship? ALL OF THEM
buff gay grandma
bi panic in a crisis
fight your inner demons but they look like your ex

If you're not yet familiar with itch.io, it's a site that queer indie authors are increasingly embracing because it's not hostile to our content & it pays a higher revenue share by default than other platforms. And YOU get DRM-free ebook files that are yours for keeps, unlike on Amazon! Win-win. 🏳️‍🌈

thinking about my nightwalkers series and the fun similarities and differences, so I made a little venn diagram if you're looking for queer romantasy that centres women, this might be a great series for you!

a book comparison venn diagram

a crimson covenant vs a verdant vendetta

a crimson covenant:
- sapphic
- werewolf x vampire
- horny biting

a verdant vendetta:
- queer m/f
- werewolf x monster hunter
- horny bathing

both:
- the werewolf is a simp
- femme tries to be grumpy (and fails)

I’m so very excited to promote A Ballad for Slayers & Monsters - a sapphic adult fantasy by @ritacoolbeans.bsky.social ! It’s cover reveal day and just look at this gorgeous cover by @afoolsdeath.bsky.social If you love Castlevania or the Witcher, don’t sleep on this! It’s coming out April 15th!

An illustrated book cover with two women standing close to each other. The first women has short red hair and dark clothing and a blue scarf around her neck. She’d holding a sword and behind her the second woman has long white hair, white and purple clothing and two vampiric fangs protruding from her upper lip. Both have serious looks on their faces. The background is a dark purple forest. At the bottom of the cover the title reads ‘A Ballad for Slayers & Monsters’ and the author’s name at the top is ‘Rita A. Rubin’.

Kas of Veldenier is a Slayer, a travelling monster hunter for hire.

Claudia of Trulio is half-human, half-vampyric. Half monster.

They should be nothing more than enemies. But when the long-lost remnant of the dragon Ombral turns up, and with it the possibility of unleashing the dragons to wreak havoc on Vil Tresar as they did long ago, Kas and Claudia’s paths converge. Through a shared desire to keep the dragons from returning, they embark on a quest to see the remnant destroyed. Along the way, they will encounter fearsome monsters as well as a burgeoning desire for each other. Can a monster and a monster slayer truly find love together?

Pursuing them from the shadows is Serisa, a vampyric who wishes to see the world burn. And she will need the remnant to make that wish a reality…
