Looking
for something different to read? I have just the thing…
A. Violet
End is soon releasing her first erotic romance novel and it's based on the fairy
tale we all know and love…Cinderella.
Intrigued? I know I was so I asked Violet a few things about it. I'd like to share with you the novel’s beautiful cover and what she had to say about the story.
A little about As You Wish…
Annora is willing to
do anything to save her father from the dark eros of an evil witch-mother and
two demonic step-sisters. It's a perilous task, battling such awful magic, but
she doesn't have to face danger alone; a fairy man waits to make all Annora's
wishes come true--for a price. This is not Walt Disney's Cinderella, dear
reader. This is As You Wish, a Cinderella story coming soon from author A.
Violet End.
Gorgeous cover, yes? Absolutely stunning! Here’s what the author has to say about the novel…
Is it
anything like the Grimm & Dirty Tales?
Yes and no. Mostly no. It's a fairy tale. It's based on my reading of the original, but I threw almost all the baby out with this bathwater and redid it. In my Grimm & Dirty Tales, characters are less three dimensional. They're more like paper dolls. In As You Wish, it was as though two paper dolls fell in love with one another, broke the fourth wall, and said "Hey, writer! Take a note! We'd like a bit more story in our story, please!" Once I realized what had happened, I was compelled to go back through the book and clean it up. When one falls in love, one isn't near as crude as when one is just being Grimm & Dirty. So, no, this book is quite different, although WHY I decided to write a romance when for 23 stories in a row I was content to just write smut, I do not know. I guess it took me 23 tries to fall in love, what can I say? Frog kissing is fun, too, let's not knock it!
How does it compare to the Billionaire books?
Tristan and Lisa have a relationship...sorta. Okay, the Diary of a F*ckdoll books have obviously taken a Sci Fi turn with the addition of part 5. That saga will be over in part 7, and yes, there is something like a relationship happening between Tristan and Lisa, but it's not a romance. That series is pure erotica. As You Wish is about two characters who do the dirty, sure, but they also fall deeply, deeply in love. And being fairy tale characters, it's a tough call how much of their personalities to draw. Fairy tales are about archetypes, right? In that way, I guess As You Wish has something in common with The Billionaire Who...stories, because Tristan and Lisa are archetypal, as well. It is my great hope that by the time I get through this final ass-kicking edit of As You Wish, I will simply be presenting you with the finest story I've ever written. Hot, sweet, dark, dirty, and romantic as hell.
This sounds really good. I can’t wait to give this one a try. Coming very soon...

the flight attendant he has his way with, over and over again. Good clean fun,
right?

I love fairy tale re-tellings! This sounds very cool. I haven't read fantasy in a long time and I think I need to get back to it.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading her omnibus of erotica fairytales now. Very cool indeed. I downloaded the Grimm Brothers and read their version, then Violet's version. I'm enjoying it.
DeleteThank you so much for hosting my reveal! I can't tell you how long I looked for an image I could live with. I was on the cusp of hiring a fashion model and renting a "castle" space to do a photo shoot when I found this artist.
ReplyDeleteIf you're enjoying the Grimm & Dirty tales, it is my great hope you are going to see an amazing difference between that writing and As You Wish, and all for the better. Like moving from hamburger to steak.
Fingers crossed. Here's hoping you just love it!!
