i love how Ilona Andrews "Kate Daniels" series is subtly a pierogi hype machine as one of the authors is part russian

and as someone who grew up in NE Ohio with a huge population of eastern europeans, I agree

ghouls? we should eat pierogi while discussing how to find the source

fighting an elder god? i should eat pierogi while i figure out how to kill him

lost and alone in life? you guessed it, i should eat pierogi

me, when i moved to florida for a few years: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT PIEROGI ARE???

Ilona Andrews: the world may have experienced the apocalypse, but there will always be pierogi 😔

books i’ve (re)read ; Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews

If someone manages to obtain some of your blood, kill him and destroy the sample. At first it was a matter of survival. Later it became a matter of vengeance.

A classic among classics, we’re talking ENEMIES TO LOVERS this week! We get to the bottom of what we think of as “enemies,” and how it differs from “rivals-to-lovers” and “friends-to-enemies-to-lovers” and “friends-to-lovers” (jk, we’ll never understand friends-to-lovers). We revisit some of our very favorite romances, talk about stakes, about impossible situations, and about how sexy hating someone can be.

Fantasy Romance Recommendations Pt.2

This is list number 2 and it will be focusing on Urban Fantasy and Contemporary romance with fantasy elements. For more traditional Fantasy recs, check list 1! Maybe it will help someone somewhere. XD ***Some of the books listed here are not Romance novels officially but all have romance and have HFN or HEA endings Urban Fantasy Romance (Paranormal Romance)

Hidden Legacy Series by Ilona Andrews 2 Trilogies Nevada Baylor is a Truthseeker; she is able to tell when people lie. When her family's detective agency is tasked with apprehending a powerful fire wielding psychopath, it puts them on the path of collision with the powerful magical elite who rules Houston. Guildcodex Series by Annette Marie 4 Series. Spellbound, Demonized, Unveiled and Wraped. When feisty redhead Tori landed a job at a sketchy pub, she had no idea she'd just joined a magic guild. And the three guys she drenched with a margarita during her first shift? Yeah, they were mages. She's about to get a crash course in the world of magic and mythics. Mercernary Librarians Trilogy by Kit Rocha Meet the Mercenary Librarians: a trio of information brokers who join forces with a squad of elite super-soldiers to use their knowledge to help the hopeless in a dystopian post-apocalyptic United States ruled by a corporate autocracy. Psy-Changeling Series by Nalini Singh A world shared by Changeling, a race of animal shifters , the Psy, a race of powerful psychic who live without emotions and Humans. Tension between the 3 races are rising. The Firebrand Series by Helen Harper Emma, an aspiring detective, is placed with the Supernatural Squad in London. Soon she is brutally murdered by an unknown assailant, wakes up twelve hours later in the morgue – and is very much alive. Contemporary Romance with Fantasy Elements The Dead Romantic by Ashley Poston Florence Day is the ghostwriter for one of the most prolific romance authors in the industry, and she has a problem... she no longer believes in love. Then her new editor shows up at her front door as a ghost. Romance is most certainly dead... but so is her new editor, and his unfinished business will have her second-guessing everything she’s ever known about love stories. The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna A warm and uplifting novel about an isolated witch whose opportunity to embrace a quirky new family--and a new love--changes the course of her life. A Stitch in Time by Kelley Armstrong Thorne Manor has always been haunted...and it has always haunted Bronwyn Dale. As a young girl, Bronwyn could pass through a time slip in her great-aunt’s house, where she visited William Thorne, a boy her own age, born two centuries earlier.

Apple pie from Magic Strikes by Ilona Andrews

Ingredients

For the Crust:

▢ 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

▢ 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

▢ 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold, cubed

▢ 1/2 cup shortening cold, cubed

▢ 6-8 tablespoons ice water

For the Filling:

▢ 8 cups apples I like ginger gold or granny smith, peeled, cored, sliced 1/4 inch thick

▢ 2 tablespoon lemon juice

▢ 3/4 cup granulated sugar

▢ 3 tablespoon all-purpose flour

▢ 1 teaspoon cinnamon

▢ 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

▢ 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

For the Topping:

▢ egg wash

▢ coarse sugar

Instructions

For the dough:

Mix the flour and salt together. Use a pastry cutter or forks to cut in the butter and shortening until mixture resembles pea-sized crumbs. Add the water one tablespoon at a time, stirring between each until dough starts to come together.

Press dough together, divide in two and then shape into a thick disks and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30-60 minutes or up to 3 days.

For the Filling:

In a large bowl, mix the apple slices with lemon juice and the sugar, flour, and spices together. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees with a rack in the lower third of the oven.

For Assembling:

Roll out one dough disc (leave the other one in the fridge) on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle and transfer to a pie plate.

Place the apples in the dough, discarding the liquid in the bowl.

Roll out the remaining dough into a 12-inch circle. Place on top of the apples. Trim excess dough (if desired), pinch the edges of the dough together, and roll it under itself. Flute the edges. Make 5-6 slits in the top of the pie to allow steam to escape.

Brush the top of the pie with the egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake for 45-55 minutes until golden. Place a pie shield on the pie after 25 minutes to prevent edges from getting too browned.

Let pie cool on a wire rack. It takes 2-4 hours for pie filling to set. Store leftovers in

Words: 2,787 Ratings & Warnings: General Audiences, No Archive Warnings Apply Characters: Kate Daniels, Derek Gaunt, Curran Lennart Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Roleswap, Enemies to Lovers, (Only Enemies Part Shown), Fealty Summary: In an alternate universe in which Hugh d’Ambray died on the street and Voron found a young, recently orphaned werelion in the woods… Kate faces the consequences of her and Derek’s actions, Derek has a great day actually, and Curran kills several birds with one stone.

I’m about 2/3 through the Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews (urban fantasy action/romance), and excited to be entering the new fandom with this extremely me-typical fic: random scene from the middle of a timeline-divergent au presented with minimal context, ft. really intense but messy fealty relationships, fucked up blood magic, and a dash of (consensual but also coerced) mind control. Can’t say I’m inconsistent!

For @aethersea. Thanks for the book rec!
