Spanish romantic literature is a fruitful genre whose seed sowed for many years a Corín Tellado turned into a pioneer of a genre that, due to its limitations of censorship in substance and form, required greater doses of ingenuity to suggest and incite the libidinous in a never explicit way.
Today the issue of the forbidden is far exceeded and many Spanish authors move between the romantic and the erotic. Cases like those of Elisabet benavent, Megan maxwell (pseudonym that recalls the Ada Miller in which Corín Tellado herself hid to address the directly sensuality of the matter ...) or her own Mar Carrion, they take the baton in the massive sales of this never-so-sensual, daring, erotic and sensitive literature, depending on how third.
And precisely Mar Carrión invites us to delve into his particular review of the romantic, with foothills that reach from one side of the plot spectrum to the other, from the darkest plots to the most candid. Because the pink narrative is increasingly sprinkled and complemented with new arguments that surprise and pair perfectly in a constant reinvention.
Top 3 recommended novels by Mar Carrión
Neve's garden
Carrión's most pure romance novel. One of those stories that exudes sensuality from almost childish sensations. Because the story of Neve evokes the duration of the days in childhood paradise, with the leap to love that jumps from the first idealization of the loved one to surrender to the physical ardor of passion.
Neve is a woman located in a small Irish town overlooking the sea. In the calm atmosphere of the place we delve into the concerns of this girl enchanted with her life but longing for even higher levels of beauty that seem to fall on deaf ears when she shares them with her boyfriend Barry.
Until Kyle arrives (or rather returns), that older boy he always had his eyes on when he was a child. Kyle and his mysterious appearance. Kyle and his presence between melancholic and brutally passionate.
The boy has returned to try to rebuild his life from a past that perhaps he did not know how to rewrite. And next to Neve you will find a tune made stormy on those Irish shores where the waves hit hard, noisy, eroding life.
Nothing is what it seems
A paranormal love is what aims to materialize between Zoe and Nick. The discord between both journalists goes back a long way, from when Nick monopolized all the news and Zoe had to settle for a few crumbs that ended up pushing her to the background in his magazine and to the ignominy of a publication of paranormal events.
Only Nick, the successful journalist also suffers a setback and ends up entering the same publication as Zoe. And there, between investigations into the unknown in an unknown town where strange things happen, love begins to awaken among the once enemies.
But what happens in the town of Peebles, where they go together to do a report, escapes everything they could imagine, and what happens then will escape everything imagined by both.
Silk traps
Eroticism, morbid and sinister take on a very particular look in our literary days with the emergence of several authors such as EL James, Penelope Sky o Meghan March. All of them determined to combine a kind of erotic genre with a black aspect of suspense when not directly from the most devastating thriller.
And in this novel you can breathe all that antithetical atmosphere of passion and its practically opposite pole of violence (so far, so close ...) At the controls of a criminal investigation around the unknown murderer of three women, Max Craven will try to act diligently trying to save a fourth victim whose body has not yet turned up.
Together with Jodie Graham, who already suffered a kidnapping in her flesh, and who shares a dedication to the cinema, like the rest of the girls in the case, both will prepare to fit the pieces before the macabre clock advances towards the unfortunate end.
