Hi! This is an extremely self-indulgent and detailed request of mine that I fear might be too hyper-specific, but here goes!
I'm looking for romances with an extremely feminine East Asian or Southeast Asian female protagonist (bonus points if she's mixed with white!), who is a bubbly, sweet, glamorous, strong-willed, short, slim-but-curvy, dainty-faced, girly girl sunshine type of woman who likes frivolous fripperies, cute, beautiful, and elegant things, and pink! I want a story with a Female/Female, Female/Male, or Female/Genderqueer relationship, and both interracial and intraracial relationships are fine. In the case there are multiple love interests, I'd prefer a polyamorous or reverse harem dynamic. Both SFW and NSFW stories are fine. Happy endings preferred!
Genres I'm interested in: gothic romance; romantasy; fantasy romance; fairytale romance; contemporary romance; historical romance; mafia romance; erotic romance; Omegaverse romance; dark romance; billionaire romance; sports romance; dance romance; supernatural romance; monster romance; romcom; bodice rippers.
Tropes I love to pieces: reverse harem; why choose; polyamory; enemies to lovers; rivals to lovers; friends to lovers; grumpy and sunshine; bad person/good girl; long-lost royal; fated mates or soulmates; stalking; dubcon; noncon; power imbalance (captor/captive; teacher/student; boss/employee; rich/poor; age gap; XD/lg, DD/lg, or MD/lg; Alpha/Omega; bully/victim; supernatural being/regular mortal; guardian/ward; protector/protected; religious figure/religious follower; etc.); chosen one; strong female relationships; yearning; love and lust at first sight. Any combination of these are excellent.
Tropes I loathe with a burning passion: cheating/homewrecking; serial womaniser/maneater/heartbreaker; not like other girls; textured/brunette hair, brown eyes, and/or dark skin being considered "plain" or "uncivilised"; love "triangles"; betrayal; fake relationship; miscommunication; marriage of convenience; a shallow female antagonist or side character whose sole purpose in the plot is just to be an obstacle or to be hated; identity fraud; FMC being oblivious to her own beauty. Anything with these tropes automatically make a book unenjoyable for me, regardless of how well-written they are.
Settings I like: anywhere around the globe in any country is fine. If the historical era is in a European setting, I'd like for it to be set during the medieval, Rococo, Regency, or Victorian eras, but honestly, any historical era is fine.
Love interests I typically prefer: the Byronic/Shadow Parent/grumpy/morally grey/Alphahole archetype who is jealous, possessive, obsessive, and yandere, and wears a lot of deep, muted, or neutral colours. Any hair colour, eye colour, skin colour, body type, clothing style, and race is fine. They can be attractive, average, or ugly; it's all good.
Thank you in advance! 🩷
