Why I’m Backing Lady Agatha Speaks Her Mind — A Spiceless Romantasy Delight

 

If you love romantasy but prefer your stories spiceless, I’ve found a gem you won’t want to miss: Lady Agatha Speaks Her Mind by Elisabeth Aimee Brown. I just backed the Kickstarter, and I’m genuinely thrilled about this project.

This story promises all the charm of a fairy tale with the wit and whimsy of the Ella Enchanted movie adaptation—one of my all-time favorites. It sounds clean, clever, and full of heart. I had the chance to read the sample chapter, and I was laughing out loud. Lady Agatha is a heroine with a voice, and I can’t wait to hear more of it.

The campaign runs until September 18, so there’s not much time left to join in. If you’ve been longing for a romantasy that’s rich in story and light on spice, this might be the one to support. Plus, there’s something special about helping bring a story like this into the world.

Why I Backed Turnabout Is Fair Cosplay — And Why You Might Want To, Too

 

If you love Shakespeare, sweet romantic comedies, and stories that sparkle without the spice, Turnabout Is Fair Cosplay might be your next favorite read — and it needs your help to come to life!

Amy Trent’s upcoming novel is a no-spice, enemies-to-lovers rom-com inspired by Much Ado About Nothing, set in sunny La Jolla, California. It features cosplay, witty banter, and a heroine who’s prickly but lovable — think Beatrice with a cactus collection. The story promises all the swoon-worthy tension and clever repartee of Shakespeare’s original, but with a modern twist and zero steam.

As a fan of clean romance and classic literature, I was instantly drawn to this project. It’s refreshing to see a contemporary love story that celebrates emotional depth, humor, and character growth without relying on explicit content. Plus, the cosplay angle adds a fun, nerdy layer that makes it stand out.

I read the first chapter, which is available for free right here, and I absolutely loved it! The voice is sharp, funny, and full of heart — exactly what I hoped for.

⚠️ The campaign ends September 18, 2025 — just two days from now! If this sounds like your kind of story, don’t wait — hop on it while you can!
