The trouble with local newspapers and oral sex

the trouble with local newspapers and oral sex written by:ClaireLilyP 

Summary: Cunnilingus by an expert: extremely attractive man in his late 20s, single, expert in the subject, offers his services FREELY to CLEAN ladies who value PERSONAL HYGIENE. Please call or text the following number and ask to talk to BIG D about his mouth, and we can make arrangements.

Ramble:  A modern story that you can really see happening.  I don't know why this is the first kind of story like this that I've come across now that I think of it.  Seriously though.  With a modern Richard, how can he not try to wreck havoc and set up some pranks on Darcy?!  This is a two chapter story, where the first chapter is in Elisabeth's perspective, and the second one in Darcy's.  A fun and quick read.

Shadowed Grey

Shadowed Grey written by: Ravyn

Summary: Recovering from an accident, Kaoru finds herself not only dealing with injuries that have left her temporarily blind… but with a vampire whose attentions she doesn’t quite know what to make of. One shot. B/K.

Ramble:  Another vampire based story.  This time, their blood has special healing powers.  What vampires do in this story is not really described.  I mean there are some ideas, but very little mention of blood shed.

Rainfall

Rainfall written by: Ravyn

Summary: Kamiya Kaoru was his obsession. She wanted to leave, Kenshin could only force her to stay. A past life haunted both their steps, threatening what little sanity they had left. BK Dark Fic. One Shot.

Ramble:  I forget what I was looking for earlier, but I was surprised to see how few of this author's stories are here.  The drafts are probably somewhere in my email drafts, but I decided to read all of the Rurouni Kenshin stories on fanfiction and make a note of them.  Some of these stories are the fist ones that I signed up for alerts for.  Anyways, back to this story; a semi dark and possessive one shot.  There is a quick warning at the beginning of the chapter.  It is really short and quick read, perfect for a quick pick-me-up.

The Sweetest Ruin

The Sweetest Ruin written by: hyacinthgirl (Amber)

Summary: The original low angst story has William Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet meeting for the first time in Sin City.  The cast includes a less angelic Jane and nice Caroline Bingley.  (Meryton Reading Room)

Ramble:  The summary has a very good warning.  As I read the story, I was glad that I was given a warning about the change in personality.  Sometimes it drives me nuts when characters are really different from what they seem to be in the original piece of work, but with fair warning this one did not irk me as much.  Most of the story kind of goes as expected, with the whole meeting in Sin City, but it is still a wonderful read from the beginning till the end. 

It is separated into 4 big parts with multiple chapters in each part.

I Hope You Dance

I Hope You Dance written by: LissaMU

Summary:  No summary posted (Completed AHA)

Ramble:  I have to admit that part of me took a look at this story because I recognized the song title.  Not only that, but I found myself listening to the song as I read the story.  This is short and sweet, and to me, it was worth it to take the time to find the song.  A nice reflective piece that follows a character as he listens to the song.  To me, it has a sweet ending.  Just be warned, some might want some tissues handy just in case.

Perfect Fit

Perfect Fit written by:  Linda Wells

Summary: Billionaire Fitzwilliam Darcy is burdened with maintaining his family’s legacy following the tragic deaths of his parents, and must also attempt to restore his young sister’s spirit after becoming the victim of Internet luring by a former family friend.  Elizabeth Bennet is a popular author of young adult mystery novels, written as a way of escaping first the behavior and then the memory of a dominating former lover.  These two lonely people meet at a wedding, over a broken shoe, and learn that once upon a time can lead to a happy ending. (The book can be found on Amazon too)

Ramble:  A modern twist on the classic story.  Elizabeth has a history with Collins already that isn't that happy.  While their history is not covered in a lot of details, readers are able to see how it shapes Elizabeth's character.  At first, I thought the story could have ended earlier, but after reading it, the author ended it at the right place.  I guess my original thought stemmed from where the classic story ended, so imagine my surprise when I got to where I thought the story will end, but see a more pages to the story.  :)
