This Rec League request is brought to you, selfishly, by me!
I want mafia romances but in a fantasy or sci-fi setting. GET ME OFF THIS PLANET.
Elyse: Oh. Now I want that too.
Shana: Taken to Kor by Elizabeth Stephens ( A | BN ) has space pirates. I’m not sure if that counts. It’s a dark romance. I’m not sure how well it would work as a standalone.
Susan: Hana Maruko’s Love Gamble With the Mafia ( A ) is sort-of fantasy; the protagonist gets reincarnated into the romance game she’s playing, obviously as the villainess, and decides that her best chance of survival is to team up with one of the game’s love interests. And by “team up with” I mean “match the freak of” and by “love interest” I mean “amoral assassin whose route is like 90% bad ends.”
It’s silly and melodramatic, but in a way that really scratches at the right parts of my brain
There’s Jordan L. Hawk’s Blind Tiger, ( A | BN | K | AB ) which is alternate history magical bootleggers?
