If you're a regular reader of the Bookshelf or a fan of Crystal Veeyant, then you may be a bit confused seeing this review. Surely, you must be thinking, you remember T-Girl Tales #8 from a year ago, so why is Sally talking about it now? Well, the stories that were originally released as T-Girl Tales #8 were repurposed into the T-Girl Tales Family Values collection, so this new edition of T-Girl Tales #8 - Wish Fulfillment is actually all-new content.
These stories are super sweet stories of erotic discovery and kinky romance. There's so much joy to them that, no matter how trashy or tawdry the sex may get, no matter how twists and turns may make you (temporarily) question that joy, the emotion is always there, inviting you to soar along with the characters. I found myself smiling so much in reading them, that I really do think they may be some of Crystal's best relationships yet.
The story of Andi's Dream Come True is, well, just that - and in that order. We start with a young man who takes a job cleaning houses to pay for his crossdressing habit, but who is also guilty of lifting silken treasures from dresser drawers and bedroom hampers. When he's caught, the heady, romantic story of the sissy wife begins . . . and a pair of poker games later, with one very determined Mistress willing to be it all, we shift into the story of the slave, which has its edgy moments of darkness, but is no less a story of self-discovery because of it.
Lesbian Sissy Toy is more about the hot MILFs next door than Lenny's stepmom, but here the story starts with edgy kink, with themes of being caught and transformed, but as secret motives are revealed, we find our happily-ever-after.
Barracks Gangbang Sissy, meanwhile, is likely precisely what you expect in the middle, but getting there and moving on are delicious surprises. It's don't-ask-don't-tell for the fetish generation, and just when you think Alex has been betrayed and pushed beyond his limits, we find out just how much he can take - and precisely what he wants to take.
Probably my favorite story in the collection, Sissy Therapy is that rare Crystal tale told not from the sissy's POV, but from that of their Domme/Therapist. What makes it so powerful for me is that it explores the very same guilt and shame so many people like Bethany are familiar with, working through those darker emotions to find a wonderful level of self-awareness and self-confidence, leading to a surprise HEA.
Now, if you're starting to fear that Crystal has gone soft, she saves the darkest, sometimes cruelest, and sometimes most succulent surprises for last in Country Girls. I don't want to say much about this, but what begins with an accident, an act of violence, and an abduction turns into a forced-feminization fantasy of erotic misuse at the hands of others. There's still happiness to be found beneath the darkness, and some wonderful thrills that will have your heart racing to the conclusion, but how you feel about what's in between . . . well, may just depend on whether you need that Sissy Therapist or have already found your self-awareness.
