Has anyone read the books on fanfiction called: The legend of Spyro love is forever (its the first in the series), The legend of Spyro: Love is amazing and The legend of Spyro: Your undieing love. They are based after the defeat of Malefore.

In the first one, Spyro and cynder get married!

It touches my heart!
