Stories with an MTF protagonist, discovering herself. Bonus points for romance!

Hi all,
I'm sort of new to this website, but have found myself enthralled by some of the best stories I've ever read. So I was looking for recommendations. I'm not sure if it's allowed, but if it's ok to recommend stories from outside scribblehub, I'd be happy to take a look at them as well.

Some examples of what I'm looking for would probably be ones similar to that of the amazing ZoeStorm.
I prefer more grounded stories as opposed to fantasy/supernatural/sci-fi ones.
Other examples of what I've enjoyed are blake1's Two Doms, ranscect's Bottle Blondes and Allyssa Plant's Fake It Till You Make It.

I will say that, one of my favorite stories was How to Remove a Curse by Eclaireo. Which yes, was fantasy. So, I'm not entirely opposed to a few recommendations. It's just less likely to really grab me. (I really hope she is able to finish the story!!)

Thank you for the examples, I like to read (and write) trans self-discovery stories. I don't have any suggestions for you, but I'll be adding some of those to my TBR.

Hmm, nothing on my lists is quite similar to what you linked.

I think the closest would be https://www.scribblehub.com/series/2188101/the-young-masters-maid-talks-too-much/

It's funny and sweet, and the MC slowly starts accepting their girl identity more and more over time, and there's a male love interest.

On the other hand, it's an isekai (low-fantasy world), there's anime humor, and the MC isn't really an "egg" or wasn't trans back on Earth. But give it a try for like 2-3 chapters, you might like it. I was skeptical at first, but it grew on me with time, gets better later when they grow up.

The other MTFs stories I've read here were all either BDSM smuts or fetish fics. Or "GL" futa harems etc., I won't link those.

Thanks for the suggestion! This one actually seems very cute, I'll definitely be giving it a read!

Man I saw MTF and thought about the SCP foundation.

You might like my current story:

A Turn of the Moon

It’s a slow-burn gender-change novel. An intimate, day-by-day domestic relationship drama of how a couple copes and adapts after a lab accident turns a husband into a woman.

Ooooh! Definitely going to be reading this as well! Thanks!

Hey, EriLu, are you also Eri8929? Because if so, the DMs you've been sending me are written in a pattern very similar to the spammers who frequent this site. Just curious.

That is not me lol. I only have this one account

Okay, cool. Now I won't feel bad about blocking Eri8929. Thank you!

I know it probably fails your requirement of more grounded being a superhero story, but I will never miss an opportunity to tell people to read Cape and Capability by Alice Pryke. It has an MtF protagonist doing the self discovery thing as well as the funniest love triangle I've ever seen in my life. Like take the two person four way love triangle from mysterious ladybird, make it a five way love triangle between two people and also make it gay.
