Arabian Nights by Pamela Rose (NC-17)

Hi, I'll be your Pros driver this month. I've only been in Pros fandom about a year and am still maneuvering my way through the multitudes of fiction online, let alone in zine format.

My tastes in Pros vary, from A/U's to sweet B/D PWP's, so I will try and give you a varied taste of what Pros fandom has to offer online. But, I only will be offering the Bodie/Doyle pairing, I am a OTP girl. I don't read anything else. So all you Murphy/Bodie fans will have to wait until next month! *g* I have some favorite authors, so you may see the same names a few times in the subject line.

Enough about me...onto the fiction!


Fandom: PROFESSIONALS
Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website:
Why this must be read: Like a good Harlequin Romance novel, this story sucks you into the author's fantasy world and barely lets you escape at the end.

An A/U set in 1892, where Bodie is a sheikh and Doyle his captive, this story may have the two lads not working for CI-5, but they are completely in character. Wonderful secondary characters add to the tale and what you get is the ultimate Desert Prince kidnaps and woos his virgin captive scenario, where battle of wills occurs, the lovers part and are reunited -- eventually.

The dialogue is fresh and hot, plus the idea of Bodie as a sheikh...cold shower anyone? This is truly a classic novel in Pros fandom. (Plus if you can ever get your hands on a copy of the novel in zine format, do. I have it and the art alone is worth the money I spent for it because of the Suzan Lovett illos).

Oh, yes, Bodie as a sheik...this is one very enjoyable AU for our Lads :)

I liked that a lot. The series is long, action-packed, and angsty, with smut and lurve lacing through it. Desert sagas aren't a kink of mine (because that fantasy doesn't push any buttons--the reverse in fact). But this tale was well worth reading. Very good rec--thanks.
