It's Trope Tuesday, so I'm sharing the tropes you can find in my new sapphic romance Enemies by Nature.

There's also a "not-so-fake kiss" and a "heating pad situation," but I'm not sure these are official tropes! 🤣

Depicted is the cover of Enemies by Nature by Jae (a red fox facing a brunette woman in a forest), surrounded by arrows pointing to the cover, with the words: fake relationship, fox-shifter with an alpha wolf attitude, single mom, sapphic romance, only one bed, enemies-to-lovers

I finished this holiday novella by @stephanieshea.bsky.social last night. I liked how the FMCs were invested in their relationship and appreciated the work they put into themselves and each other. An enjoyable holiday read, for sure. #sapphicbooks

I haven’t done a #lesficfri post in forever, but since it’s holiday season… here’s two of my favorite quotes from my holiday novella Nochebuena 💕🎄

**theme: fingertip

Grab 𝙉𝙤𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙗𝙪𝙚𝙣𝙖 here: mybook.to/Nochebuena
Pink background image featuring a quote from Nochebuena by Stephanie Shea. The quote reads: Cami's lips found hers, but unlike their last, this kiss didn't come with the desperation of grounding Sutton, conveying security, conviction. It didn't come with the passion-filled rush of the last few nights either, the promise of blunt nails leaving trails down her back, bruises on her neck and thighs. Instead, the soft give and take of their lips, tickle of fingertips along her nape, relief in every breath carried the weight of emotions too big for words. The simplicity and grandeur of I love you. Pink background image featuring a quote from Nochebuena by Stephanie Shea. The quote reads: Sutton slowly slipped her fingers out, mapping an erotic trail along Cami's inner thigh straight to her hip, and Cami's eyes fluttered open with a groan. Their mouths brushed, the frenzied tousle of lips and tongues having quelled to a sweeter, more exploratory kiss, so indulgent Sutton released Cami's pinned hand, delighting in the sweep of those same fingertips along her nape. Sweet, like pomegranate and gin, heightened by the taste of Cami on Sutton's tongue.
