It's allowed to be anything from smut to literature. I would just like to experience a story about trauma and relationships within the context of sapphic romance. I would prefer an age gap because I'm a sucker for stories where the protagonist seeks refuge with a caring older partner.
A slowburn always has my preference over something rushed.
Though I understand this question will mostly yield smut (which is fine), I am really craving something deep and meaningful with a little more substance than only the love story.
My motivation for the request is being a young woman with a lot of trauma. I am not even gay or into older adults. But I think such a character could be an interesting soundboard for a troubled younger person. I want it to be a woman because I have read this dynamic in F/M romance time and time again and I need something different. Oh, and when I say younger I mean late 20s to early 30s. Adults that can properly exercise their agency. 🙂
Shoot! Even if your rec doesn't fit the bill exactly. Who knows what will scratch the itch.
