WLW & lesbian books with ice queen characters – (F/F Fiction Crossword Challenge #1)

April 4, 2024January 2, 2020

I’m very excited to share the first post of the long-awaited F/F Fiction Crossword Challenge with you. For our first crossword puzzle, I picked WLW & lesbian books with ice queen characters because that kind of heroine is quite popular with readers.

10 WLW & Lesbian Roommate Romance Novels

November 6, 2022November 14, 2019

When I first set out to write my latest romance, The Roommate Arrangement, I started to wonder: Are there other WLW or lesbian roommate romance novels out there?
