A feminine rage anthology.

Seven stories of the damage men cause when consumed by power—and the women who endure the consequences.

Seven stories of the damage men cause when consumed by power—and the women who endure the consequences.

In Malicious Intent, the seven deadly sins take on human form, exploring the brutal cost of unchecked ambition and desire. Each story explores a different sin—pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth-exposing the twisted paths men take when temptation claims them.

100% of proceeds from Malicious Intent will be donated to Amnesty International, supporting the global fight for
human rights.

Join us in a cathartic release of feminine rage and political frustration written by Eri Leigh, A.L. Quinn, Kate Grube, T.R. Spells, Aneilya Pauline, Taylor Hannah, and Maria Vagdouti.

About ‘My Fantasy Dream Husband’

Six women vying for the man of their dreams. One lord who promised far more than a marriage.

Blair didn’t expect much from entering the contest to become a lord’s wife—at most, a brief escape from her mundane routine. She certainly hadn’t expected to be chosen.

What starts as a silly whim—a few nights in a lavish manor—spirals into something darker when Blair survives the first trial. Suddenly, she has more questions than answers.

Who is Lord Damian, and why is he searching for a wife?

My Fantasy Dream Husband offers a satirical look at the absurdity of romance competitions and how media reduces women to simple archetypes—the cool girl, the gold digger, the femme fatale, the innocent, the manic pixie dream girl—and, of course, Blair, who is just an ordinary person.

At its core, My Fantasy Dream Husband is about greed—a force that drives men to exploit and objectify others for profit. But what happens when women reject this greed and refuse to be pitted against one another? They forge a path toward a better future.
