How to make an unredeemable inveterate Regency rake acceptable to a prim and proper heroine, for example? How to get a loan wolf cowboy on the rodeo circuit to the point where he can settle down behind a picket fence? <br /> Paranormals are fun because you can let your imagination soar to get your characters where they need to be!Taryn Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11130206764352777367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7499019835203480699.post-85049470377659062912010-06-03T07:28:21.657-07:002010-06-03T07:28:21.657-07:00I was reading through this article and found mysel...I was reading through this article and found myself caught a bit by one of the major premises of it: that only the hero is "other", and the heroine is presumed to be "human", or "not other." Presumably the story hinges around her being brought in somehow into that "other world" that the hero inhabits.<br /><br />This is a slowly changing trend - I know I've been seeing some books now where the woman is the "other" creature and falls for a human of some sort or another. <br /><br />I can think of only a handful that goes with the idea that "others" getting together with "others" (Laurell K. Hamilton & Kim Harrison leap to mind), but those lean more toward Urban Fantasy than outright romance. <br /><br />Anyone got book recommends that might be other/other or woman other/man human?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17703102405965656616noreply@blogger.com
