TRying to find where to put this, but you know the [livejournal.com profile] cakefic generator? Are you still willing to put new people in it? Because if so, I've just watched some Avengers episodes, and I think Emma Peel and John Steed would be excellent additions to the madness. Incidents with cake would be positively normal for them.

His life at a crossroads, he was now set to carry out one last transaction: moving in on Carey's – a company ripe for takeover.
Sensitive, intense, determined– DAVINA James had been forced to suppress her warmth and sensuality, first by her domineering father and then by her womanizing husband.

UNMASKED
by Nicola Cornick

Nick Falconer has been sent from London to the tranquil English village of Peacock Oak to solve the murder of his cousin Rashleigh and unmask the female Robin Hood. But Nick never expected that Mari would be so intoxicatingly beautiful or so disturbingly luscious. Determined to have her at any cost, Nick sets out to seduce her with a passion that inflames them both. But Mari holds much deeper, darker truths than Nick
could ever imagine. Can she hide her sinister past from him much longer? Or will trusting the one man she so desperately wants lead her straight to the hangman's noose?

I’m tickled by the potential for extraneous cousins and the knowledge that the generator will eventually specify “the male Robin Hood,” suggesting a universe in which the original Robin Hood was female. This pleases me.

Is there a length limit for the generator? This one is rather rambling but full of tropes:

Well Matched by Jen DeLuca
Single mother April Parker has lived in Willow Creek for twelve years with a wall around her heart. On the verge of being an empty nester, she's decided to move on from her quaint little town, and asks her friend Mitch for his help with some home-improvement projects to get her house ready to sell.

Mitch Malone is known for being the life of every party, but mostly for the attire he wears to the local Renaissance Faire—a kilt (and not much else) that shows off his muscled form to perfection. While he agrees to help April, he needs a favor too: she'll pretend to be his girlfriend at an upcoming family dinner so that he can avoid the lectures about settling down and having a more "serious" career than high school coach and gym teacher. April reluctantly agrees, but then dinner turns into a weekend trip, and it becomes hard to tell what's real and what's been just for show. But when the weekend ends, so must their fake relationship.

As summer begins, the Faire returns to Willow Creek, and April volunteers for the first time. When Mitch's family shows up unexpectedly, April pretends to be Mitch's girlfriend again…and it doesn't feel so fake anymore.

Despite their obvious connection, April insists they've just been putting on an act. But now there's the chance for something real and she has to decide whether to change her plans—and open her heart—for the kilt-wearing hunk who might just be the love of her life.
