Under Her Protection

Sometimes men are the ones trapped in a tower, or bound by a curse, or doomed to stay in the underworld. Damsels or not, they need rescuing too. And these are just the women to do it… KD Sarge writes of a swordswoman and a scholar. Erin Zarro tells of a grim reaper and a dead man. Siri Paulson shares the tale of a maidservant and an inventor. Kit Campbell writes of a new university grad and a prince. Turtleduck Press proudly presents fantasy romance stories about strong women…and men who need their help.

Introducing Under Her Protection, our newest anthology

Erin here.  We’d like to introduce our new anthology, “Under Her Protection: Stories of Women to the Rescue,” which is now available. It’s filled with stories about…women to the rescue! At Turtleduck Press, we strive to twist things around and change stuff up. So, when we were planning this anthology, we thought about the traditional “damsel in distress” stories and thought, “what if the guy needed saving? And what kind of woman would be the one to save him?” And, naturally, sometimes saving someone comes with a bit of romance. And this anthology was born. Here’s what we have in store for you: KD Sarge’s “Guardian” tells the story of a scholar and a warrior who isn’t what she seems. My story, “Reaper Girl,” is about a grim reaper who accidentally reaps the soul from a man very much alive – and must fight the Underworld to get it back. Siri Paulson’s “The Raja and the Madman” tells the story of an inventor in a tower and the maidservant who befriends him. Kit Campbell’s “Drifting” is about a girl, unsatisfied with her life, who receives an odd letter about a Prince who has been cursed in a Faerie world – and an old family legend come to life. We feel these stories will stir your soul and touch your heart. As always, all proceeds will go to UNICEF. Where you can purchase our anthology: Amazon KindlePaperback EditionSmashwords
