I do a lot of reading, and I mean a LOT of reading. Sometimes, though, I have trouble finding stories I haven't read that fit the theme I'm in the mood for, even after searching the categories.
So, here's what I'm lookin' for right now- romantic stories (with a male playing the primary love interest), a protagonist between the ages of 14-35, I tend to like the deals/bets/dares transformations where the protagonist might be a bit 'femme' beforehand, but doesn't really identify as TG/TS until later.

Suggestion
Have you read Donna Lamb's Blue Moon? Or my own Sledgehammer? Both are in the Hatbox but are also available from Doppler Press and are even here for free. :) There's also Lainie Lee's Esperanza and her Suit Your Self. I wrote the songs in Blue Moon, did the art in Esperanza and edited Suit Your Self. :)
You've actually described what is pretty much my favorite sort of story here, too.

Thanks!
I read Sledgehammer, I'll have to check the others out, though. I know there's a lot of good stuff out there I've missed, so I can't wait to see what comes up.
A few of my faves:
Bridesmaid- Miss Jessica
For My Daughters- Shalimar
G11- Sarah Bayen
No Half Measures (need to buy)
A lot of Janet Stickney stuff (very formulaic, but feel good stories)
I'm With the Band- Melanie Brown
Colleen- Jennifer Brock
But, But, But- (can't remember author at the moment)
Zapped! by Bob and some of the Julie O! stories
Also, Ma Cherie Amor by Angela Rasch

Read, read, and read!
I love 'My Cherie Amour' and 'Zapped'- actually, one of the few AR stories I do like.
As for Julie O, some of her stuff is too long to read on the PSP- not enough memory to even load Fresh Start 2.
Thanks for the suggestions, everyone!
Don't I need to read 'Devil in Drag' before 'Blue Moon'? Hmm.
Devil in Drag
The Devil in Drag by Lainie Lee is unfinished. I've seen the outline and it runs about 15 chapters but I think there are only four or five in existence on any site.
Blue Moon by Donna Lamb stands alone and does not need DinD to make sense. Lainie's rules for the universe suggest that each author come up with their own version of the Devil and just use Strangefellows Day as the linking idea.

One of my favorites
Julie O's "The Scholarship"
A peep from my own trumpet.
Alas no 'deals/bets/dares transformations' but my 'Yellow the Leaves of the Rowan' is a love story, albeit somewhat bitter sweet.
It also has the advantage of being short.:)
