seriously romantic: game for marriage by karen erickson

game for marriage kicks off with one hot night of crazy sex for jared quinn and sheridan harper. jared is the star quarterback for the local team, and happens to be in dire need of image rehab. the team publicist believes that sheridan will make the perfect fake wife, especially considering she's barely making ends meet in order to keep her art studio open.

it's too hard to say no to the deal they offer and before she knows it sheridan harper becomes sheridan quinn. and things would be going swimmingly if it weren't for a no-sex clause sheridan had insisted writing into their marriage contract. at the time sheridan was thinking to protect her heart because too many wild nights with jared would inevitably result in heartbreak.

she hadn't counted on wanting him in spite of all the possible terrible consequences. getting to know her husband she realizes that he's not really the scumbag player he's made out to be in the press. and the guy he is around her is someone easy to love. negotiating how to make this fake relationship a real one will involve some fancy footwork. but there's too much heat and emotion between these two that there is only one conclusion.

i'm a big fan of fake relationship stories. and football too. and watching sheridan and jared figure out that all those pretend emotions are something very real is well worth the read.

simply catching up on all things general hospital

hmmm, it's been months since i've blogged about gh . partly this is due to the fact that i fell behind while i was traveling. partly because all the outrage lapsed into disinterest when i realized i couldn't bring myself to care anymore and everything that was happening was just so trite and boring. some days i still feel that way. and there are still whole storylines that i either hate or just fast forward through. but there are some good things too. in no particular order, here are my thoughts on the goings-on in port charles: 1. soras [and why re-casting roles works on soaps even if you do miss the original actors]: the new, older versions of sonny's kids are turning out to be quite enjoyable. [although hilariously, cameron whom i believe is older than molly is now younger. and because cameron is so cute, i'm kind of hoping they won't fix that. we also haven't seen spencer in ages, so he may be approaching 50.] in any case, at this point we've only s

genre debate: urban fantasy versus epic fantasy: team epic gets their say

Team Epic: Why I Love Epic Fantasy! Since it's my blog, I'll go first: Epic fantasies take you on quests that take you beyond the limits of what is real. The rules can be different, they are different, and everything just matters more. It's not just one life at stake, it's lives, it's a whole world, a whole way of being. Epic fantasies force you to use your imagination and take you on an adventure to places you never thought possible, but as different as everything feels, there are still things that are always real, no matter how you write it.

We can erase all of our preconceived notions of society and law and even science, throwing all of that over the side of a cliff. Epic fantasy lets us push humanity well past the breaking point with ever
