Recs and Reviews

What I love about Mrs. Hamill's writing is how effortlessly she combines plot and romance, a great story and great sex. This fic has it all, an engaging, thrilling plot with a creative surprise twist, believable interpersonal chemistry that results in some of the hottest kiss- and sexscenes in the fandom, great writing that gives just enough clues to make the plot twist a surprise, but neither unlogical nor deus ex machina, and that special, hard to pin down extra something that makes a story not just good, but great. [...] There's a sequel called "The Kennobi Affair", posted to MA and MrsHamill's website.[1]

I love this story! It completely blew me away the first time I read it, and started me thinking seriously about the craft of writing real stories (as opposed to PWPs). It was the inspiration for my fic, "The Bodyguard" (which I really must finish one of these days). It ends a little abruptly and the plot isn't wrapped up as much as I'd like, but I can overlook that.[2]

Anything I say will spoil it (the theme already did omg) so I'm not going to tell you anything about the plot, just that it's action/adventure, and romance, and very enjoyable.[3]
