($2.99 or Kindle Unlimited) A man gets sold out by his shitty ballet company to be the companion of an otherworldly sugar plum fairy. [Purchase Link]
Lots of dialogue and well-built characters. I can appreciate when I can tell who is talking even if there names aren't attached to the dialogue (which is useful since there was a spot where the paragraphs were separated so that it sounded like a different person was talking).
But I didn't really care for the characters or the chemistry they brought, as well-written as they were. Felt less like fireworks and more like "well, I'll hook up with you, I guess, kinda bored anyway." I know that's rich coming from me since I wrote that exact plot in What the Weretiger Wants, but I want to be clear that this is NOT a dig at the quality of the work. The work is fine, just not my thing. I don't always write stuff that isn't my thing, which is why What the Weretiger Wants is also "I'm bored. Let's fuck"
Also- why is it called fairytail instead of fairytale? I didn't finish since it wasn't my thing, but as far as I know, the fairy doesn't have a tail, so I'm not sure if the title is a pun or a typo, or if I don't know how fairytale is spelled
