GreenFairy, for you I'm choosing authors I've enjoyed:

Bonus:
- I read this one a long time ago but liked it and continued with the series. I remember it as a fighter romance.

- I just finished this one, which is definitely erotica, although it was different--lyrical, I guess, which elevated it a bit.
