>>A Matter of Trust by quietruby (Twilight)
"This is the Twi doppelganger of my SVM story Halo Effect, and I love it! Sweet school teacher Bella gets trapped in an elevator with Uber famous and popular Edward. In the midst of her impending panic attack, she treats him like she would anyone else, and he's both intrigued and dare I say, smitten? Read to find out what happens when they get to know each other! This is a great first story from this author and I can't wait for more of this fic - and to see what else she comes up with!" -- Missus T
>>A Smarter Sookie by Sophie Myst
"Takes the idea that Sookie isn't as dumb as CH initially made her, and gives her sass and smartness. This has her going to Shreveport nightclubs to test out her telepathy and the fact that she can influence people. When she turns up at Fangtasia Eric takes an immediate interest (obviously) and the relationship growing between them is fantastic.
The last chapter posted (chapter 8) almost had me in tears of laughter with a Pam incident.
Everyone should read this." -- drumbjo
>>Dead or Alive, the Honeymoon by Honeypop
"You don't have to have read 'Dead or Alive' for this to make sense but if you haven't you have seriously missed out!
Eric (vamp) and Sookie are on honeymoon and she finds herself ready to be a bit more, ahem, experimental in bed. Eric, of course, does not fail to deliver...this is rated M for a reason peeps, it's hot, hot, hot." -- Alison at Northman Maille
>>Discovering Beauty by laurielove (Harry Potter)
"As everyone knows me, I read all kinds of fandom. Including Harry Potter which is why I recommend this story to the up most. Some may balk at this story, because of what it is based on, but before you spew take a peek. This story was so intelligently told that at times I needed to refer to a thesaurus. It is that cerebral. Did I forget to mention it's a major smutfest after chapter 16?
The premise of the story for those who follow Harry Potter takes place after Deathly Hollows. A chance encounter at a book store changes the lives of two very different, yet similar people. A young herione, part of the Golden Trio, and the Death Eater who tried to kill her years ago. Will years of ingrained bigotry change his way of thinking once he finds himself drawn, to a Mudblood? You will have to read to find out.
On the plus side it is complete, but it is quite lengthy. Don't let that deter you, I was able to convert a Sookieverse reader to read it, and she thanked me profusely, because it was brilliantly written and the sex/love scenes were written in such a way that I haven't read before in any fandom. Simply marvelous." -- ebonyeyez1
>>Fangtasia Stories by Honeypop
"After reading a recommendation from ericizmine, I checked out the first chapter of this fic and instantly fell in love! Honeypop's sense of humor is hysterical, her dialog leaves me in stitches! I literally had to stop reading late last night in fear of waking up my parents from my laughter. A fantastic read for behind the scenes moments between maker and child, Eric and Pam, at Fangtasia." -- Lubadub
>>Fated by Mortia
"This story had me more hooked than almost anything I have discovered recently. I am amazed this is the author's first fic, it's just that good.
When Bill takes Sookie to Fangtasia she and Eric recognise each other..but how? Why does she remember what she thinks is their wedding night and why is he so desperate to get her away from Bill?
Eric & Sookie N at it's best, rated M for Mmmmm Viking :)" -- Alison at Northman Maille
>>Halo Effect by Missus T
"I don't know how I waited so long to read or recommend this story. This is an AH story where Sookie loses her memory for a time. I love the character of Eric, how sweet, caring and protective he is in this story. Sookie is handling things well considering the circumstances. They build a real relationship based on feelings and values, able to ignore the day-to-day details. I love tiramisu. There are some excellent references to canon, some twisted, that always make me excited. Oh, and Bill is the biggest douche imaginable. Ha!" -- Northwoman
>>Movie Night by Kjwrit
"This is a sample fic for the Seven Deadly Sins contest, (there is a link to contests on the homepage of this lovely blog).
Sookie and Eric have settled into a comfortable relationship which includes 'Movie Night', Sookie has been picking the films (including 'Grease', she managed to cajole Eric to dress up as Danny, how she did it is an M rating :))This week though Eric gets to choose....with very lemony results, keep a cold washcloth at hand :)
The other two sample fics on the contest are brilliant too!" -- Alison at Northman Maille
>>Second Chances by NorthmanGirl
"This story grabs me with its playful fun, its ties to canon, and because it is Eric & Sookie. I admit I have been encouraging the author and recently have been helping as a beta. I am excited to see what happens in this story. Eric & Sookie meet in high school, when Sookie is dating Bill. Eric wants to be with her and knows Bill is cheating on her. Sookie finds out about Bill cheating just as Eric graduates and goes away to college. What happens when Sookie ends up at the same college as Eric, a year later?" -- Northwoman
>>Shelter from the Storm by Missus T
"This is a sample fic for the 'Kiss the Cook' contest and I am telling you, if it was an entry I'd be shocked if it didn't win.
Eric is a restaurant owner in New Orleans when Katrina hits, he is in an area that isn't as badly damaged as some so decides to stay and help out. When his friend Jason's sister turns up looking for help and shelter he is torn between wanting to get her out to safety and never letting her go.
This is a fantastic love story but it is the depiction of the hurricane and its aftermath that grabbed me, Missus T talked to someone who was actually there to make sure she had the details right and it shows in this sympathetic but realistic account. I just loved it, can't you tell?" -- Alison at Northman Maille
>>The Vampire's Assistant by Makesmyheadspin
"I am on a bit of a marathon with Makesmyheadspin's stories at the moment and this one is one of the best.
Originally a birthday fic for 5 authors, she MMHS decided to write a 5 chapter fic. Sookie has been Eric's PA for 5 years, they are very attracted to each other but she has not acted on it because he is a hound dog and she doesn't want to be another of his cast-offs. When it comes to her birthday though, can Eric persuade her to change her mind? AH and M rating" -- Alison at Northman Maille
