Hey Erynne! Aw, your story sounds tragic!!! That might actually make me cry if I ever read it!! 😢
Oh, I totally feel you when it comes to reading/writing Christian romance! People can be so messed up, and a lot of it shows in their writing. The fine line between beautiful romance and bad stuff is sooo hard to write. I don’t write adult romance, which is much harder to portray in a Christian (but not cliche) way. I’m pretty sure @zee writes adult romance, though…? I write YA with romance in it, and I love it when popular YA authors portray romance cleanly! It’s so encouraging and inspiring.
I have two WIPs right now, but the second one has more romance. Here’s #1’s synopsis, As Dark As Mist and Shadow:
Seia has lived in isolation her whole life. With an abusive mother, few friends, and no prospects, there is only one thing keeping Seia from running away: her sister, Sadana. Seia’s only wish is to escape with Sadana and find a new life of peace and safety in a far off land. But then the unthinkable happens: Sadana is engaged to one of the most powerful and dangerous men in the empire. Thrown into a world of adventure, Seia must navigate her way through new friendships, danger, mystery, and romance, all to save her sister before it is too late…
I want to make Seia and her love interest, Matias, go from enemies > friends > lovers. (i looove that soooooo much ❤) How is your romance set up? (e.g. love at first sight, friends > lovers)
