Eitan's Chord
Fairy magic requires fairy sex, so when the three Chanukah fairies—cute butch Latke, enthusiastic party girl Dreidl, and their elegant leader Menorah—decide to help an impoverished young couple, a fairy threesome is in order!
Eitan, a trans man, and his cis wife Abigail work retail and live on love in a studio apartment with broken blinds. If only Abigail’s beaded jewelry would sell online, they’d have a little more cash, but nobody’s biting. While they sleep, the fairies bring the miracle they’re looking for.

A note on my reviewing style: I read lots of books, but writing reviews is work and I only really do them to endorse books that I enjoyed enough to signal boost. That's why my reviews are mostly positive. It's not that I like every book ever :P

March 14, 2016I wrote a threesome between Chanukah fairies. With bonus G-rated cuteness between a (human) Jewish trans man and cis woman. Enjoy!

2 Stars. Initially I did round it up to 3 stars because it was technically written well and I posted it to GR. But it didn't sit well with me, so I went back and changed it to 2 stars.
It just wasn't for me. Fairy sex? On Chanukah? I should've known what I was getting from the description. Oh, well. I was intrigued by a story about Chanukah and the beautiful cover (there is a different one on Amazon which is much nicer than the GR cover).

This, she thought, must be how the sugar feels when it melts into the tea.

Super short - like read-it-in-a-half-hour short, for me at least - and super cute and heartwarming. Also delightfully sexy. The interactions between the human couple are short but enough to get a sense of at least their relationship and tenuous situation, with some super relatable observations on the exhausting chaos of working retail during the holiday rush.
But the focus is on the dynamics between three very different (and all beautiful, as one of them notes) fairies, having some very sweet and satisfying sex, and the blessings that arise from all those good feelings. A really creative and nice concept; I just really loved the idea that much-needed relief and surprise good fortune comes from fairy threesomes (with the caveat that I'm not Jewish, so my thoughts on the actual holiday/cultural implications don't apply).
Also contains allusions to fairy roller derby leagues, so that's pretty much a guaranteed 5-star right there.

Definitely my favourite in the “totally unexpected and truly delighted” category for my short fiction of the year. Full review up on my Short Stories 366 blog here.

This winter I've decided to read Holiday romance and not only Christmas but also Hanukkah, Yule/Winter Solstice, Kwanzaa, etc. And this short, sexy story with three wish-granting lesbian faeries was a nice way to start.
Perfect for this time of the year.
Smut level: 🔥🔥🔥🔥/5
Spice level: 🌶🌶/5
It's currently only 1$ on Amazon (I don't have KU, it's maybe free on KU). So everyone that wants to make their holiday reads a bit more diverse, check it out!

I wonder what the human couple would think about having fairy magic all over their things...

Fun little Hanukkah erotica
This was a cute, fun little story. I really liked the idea of Hanukkah fairies and how they create miracles, but it neither warmed my heart or my loins. It had a lot of promise for super sweet feelings, but I don’t feel there was enough interaction with characters with the reader/that the reader saw to be fully emotionally invested. I enjoyed it, but I wish there had been a bit more to increase emotional investment. The idea of it is super fun and unique, and I love the premise; story itself just didn’t wow me like I’d hoped for.

Lesbian Chanukkah fairies, what's not to love?!

4 stars. Don't ask why I'm reading a holiday romance in the middle of summer. Just know that this was a lot of fun and so light and cute. I really want more of all of these characters.

3.5 stars. This story certainly has some of the more creative uses for ordinary objects in sex I've seen. ;-) There isn't much to this short story beyond spicy sex for a sweet cause, but what it does, it does well. I absolutely adored the personification of Chanukah ideas into these three fairies.

This was pretty random and slightly weird, but it was steamy!
