Forever Evermore
Women of W.A.R.by Kate
Think SF is too hardcore? Too bogged down in details? Not sexy enough for a paranormal reader like you? We beg to differ…
- Worlds – same, same, but different
Just as in paranormals, much in a science fiction world is quite familiar, but with a few key changes. Whether it’s set on a space ship, a distant planet, or a dystopian Earth, there is enough that is familiar to ease your way into the world, but enough different to add a bit of spice and excitement.
Stargate – the movie - Sexy heroes – the galaxy is your oyster
Whether it’s the strong warrior, the diplomatic politician, or the unflappable scientist, the universe is populated with gorgeous new heroes, just waiting for you to find them.
the warrior hero – Chris Pine as Captain Kirk 
The moral outlaw – Nathan Fillion as Captain Mal Reynolds 
Logic has never been sexier – Zachary Quinto as Spock 
Humour and strength – Will Smith in Independence Day 
The unlikely hero – Bruce Willis in The 5th Element - Strong heroines – kicking alien butt
Kick-ass, anti-, or just complex, three-dimensional heroines, Science Fiction features an array of women taking care of business in an array of situations, from facing down alien abductors or setting up planetary governments, to kicking some inter-galactic ass. Looking for strong female characters? You’ll find them in SF.
Jean Grey – the most powerful of the X-warriors. Sure she almost kills everyone, but everyone has off days. 
Dana Scully – the smart, sceptical scientist that holds the X-files together 
Ellen Ripley – the warrior heroine of the Alien series 
Sarah Manning in Orphan Black – an anti-heroine chasing down answers behind an apparent cloning – hers. - High stakes
Whether it’s planet-wide destruction, a chilling villain, or war on a galactic scale, something is always going on in SF that drives the relationship stakes into the atmosphere.
Luke – I disapprove of your girlfriend… - Favourite tropes, with a twist
Bodyguards, arranged marriages, damsels who can save themselves from their own distress (but get a little help along the way), friends-to-lovers, even billionaire playboys – just throw the word ‘space’ in front of them, and you’ve got an SF plot, just waiting to be written or read!
Or, in this case, superhero genius inventor boss hero meets capable, intelligent, organised assistant/secretary heroine - Happy ever after ending guaranteed
