Reluctant Press is the premiere publisher of professionally illustrated transgender, transsexual, transvestite and cross-dress fiction since 1989. Reluctant Press authors are real transgender and transsexual people who live real lives in our community.

Reluctant Press™ publishes at least three exciting new books every month in saddle stitch or paperback format. These books represent the work of experienced authors and illustrators and each is an original, previously unpublished story. Transgender authors who work hard to perfect their craft and produce quality work deserve some kind of reward, don't they? You can help quality authors continue to write stories that excite and titillate.

In addition to new books in print each month, Reluctant Press™ also regularly adds two or three stories to its online inventory from its vast storehouse of great fantasy fiction. These stories are not the run of the mill non-professional fiction you usually find on the web, but are real books in Adobe Acrobat^TM format, complete with the original illustrations!

If you'd like to check out what's online now, go to the downloads index page, or just start browsing the classics.
