This is a list of my favorite romance stories. I favor the more "unusual pairings" because I'm not a fan of Ginny and Hermione gets enough love on , though you will still find both in here. I prefer stories without harems, but there are a lot of well written ones out there and I'm not opposed to including good ones. Though some stories may contain sex, I am more interested in the relationships than smut. If you have suggestions, I'm open to suggestions. NO slash. |
