Fics like Eros’s Equinox

Cozy autumn/Halloween themed fluffy monster romance story with dark academia vibes. Contemporary setting. Dr Áine Rohan is an anxious, disorganised, self-professed goth and history nerd who has just relocated to take a dream position as a research fellow and lecturer at Harome University in Willow Vale, a town with the biggest multispecies population in the West Midlands. Unlucky in love, Áine considers herself ‘romantically inept,’ but quickly finds herself nursing a serious crush on the taciturn minotaur man working alongside her in the Faculty of Classics. The stern professor’s behaviour leads Áine to believe that her feelings are unrequited, but as the two get to know one another, she finds she may have been mistaken. Not set within the exact Cambric Creek world by C.M. Nascosta but heavily inspired by this series, and by Morning Glory Milking Farm and Blue Ribbon Romance specifically.
