I like stuff with romantic elements and angst, usually YA, fantasy, paranormal/urban fantasy or variations thereof. Usually wrinkles nose at sci-fi due to unlikely tech. Straight girl who likes boys that like boys!

Lead - Kylie Scott

“Here.” I held out the shirt to Jimmy.
He stopped, cocked his head. “You’re fired.”
“What?”
“Lena, look at it.”
I did so. “Huh. Well, it’s very bright and cheerful. No one will be looking at your face, that’s for certain.”
“Yeah. That’s why you’re fired.”
“I think the clashing pink and red Christmas trees make quite a statement. And the frolicking deer are kind of cool… wait, is that one just jumping or has it actually mounted the little one beneath it?”
Angry fingers flew over the buttons of his ruined white shirt. He tore the last few, sending them pinging off into the four corners of the bathroom.
“Oh, goodness. There’s even a threesome happening on the back. That shirt really has it all. But I think if anyone could carry it off, it’s you.” I should stop. I really should stop. But I just couldn’t. “The Jimmy Ferris. I mean, whoa. You’re basically the style king.”
“I don’t know why the fuck I put up with you.”
I shrugged. “No, me neither. But you keep paying me so I keep hanging around.”
“Awesome. Go away.”
“You got it, boss.”

 

Lena is AWESOME.
