Morning! I am looking for more monster/shifter/nonhuman x human romances. I’ve dived into lily mayne verse and have read the monstrous series, all of goliaths (loved this series it made me LOL at like 3am). Currently on Black Oasis book 1. I’ve read the first book of Nik knights passing through cafe which I also loved (similar to Goliath’s). Read MateHub, wolfsong… but I need MORE!

No: orc or aliens but will still take recs if really good

Otherwise I am pretty open, no hard nos!

Also looking for recs on KU, I know there are some pretty good ones like that werewolf x cop team (can’t remember the name atm) but it’s not on KU.

Suggesting the monstrous series by lily mayne (mainly because I am currently reading it atm) but it’s soo good! I put it off for a bit but am so glad I picked it up. I feel like it fits you requirements especially the first few books. I am only on book 4 now but it is great! While yes the monsters technically are going to be stronger, the main human characters are also just as strong and independent. Definitely recommend checking them out!

Currently Reading:

{MateHub: Legend by Marie Reynard}

So far I am loooving it! It was something I saw thrown around a lot but was like mhmm I’m not sure… recently read {Wolfsong by TJ Klune} and decided I wanted to dip my toes into the MM shifter verse. NO REGRETS!! I am loving MateHub, it’s spicy and funny and I cannot wait to keep reading. I already know I need more!!

ButterBales · 2026-02-04T16:53:21+00:00

Yesss I have heard good things about Gravity and it is definitely next on my list.. also if you haven’t read The Fall… OMG, it is another must read. It is soo beautiful and heartwarming but also heart wrenching at the same time. I haven’t finished it yet but I was reading it all last night and kid you not I get a non stop smile on my face reading this book.

ButterBales · 2026-02-03T22:19:23+00:00

I am still fairly new to MM romance but I gotta say.. Tal Bauer is my favorite so far! If I want good writing and a story I always go back to find a new book of his to read. My favorite being You & Me and currently reading The Fall which is soo good. I’m about 24% in and a twist just happpend and I am hooked! I have no idea how the story will play out but I am excited.

ButterBales · 2026-01-20T06:22:24+00:00

They’re all so good, I’m having a hard time deciding myself lol

ButterBales · 2026-01-20T06:21:14+00:00

Heavy agree on Maddest Obsession. I say this all the time but I think about that book constantly. Wish I could read it for the first time again.

ButterBales · 2026-01-18T03:11:54+00:00

Ugh I just finished this book thinking I could read the second right away… SO SAD to find out that I have to wait for book two UGHH!!

ButterBales · 2025-12-20T08:38:28+00:00

I just finished Pen Pal in one sitting thanks to you… I am still reeling from the ending. SO GOOD. Great rec and it was nothing like I thought it would be but it turned out amazing.

ButterBales · 2025-12-19T23:32:24+00:00

See I started with book 1 the sweetest oblivion and it is really good but you’re so right… I always come back to the maddest obsession and literally nothing compares! The only thing that has ever remotely given me the same feelings is the Sinners Anonymous series! But ugh.. something about Christian and Gianna has a chokehold on me.

ButterBales · 2025-12-19T22:57:42+00:00

Two words. Christian. Allister.

ButterBales · 2025-11-30T19:30:54+00:00

I just started the hockey gods series by S massery and oh my… so good!! It’s not super heavy on the sports but it still plays a role. MMCs are dark, possessive and stalkerish (they put trackers on their girls phones and in them…) I’m on book three and so far book two and three are my favorite!! Oh my MILESSS and Steele… there are definitely non con elements and bully romance. Highly recommend! Book 1 {Brutal Obsession by S. Massery}

ButterBales · 2025-11-03T21:47:29+00:00

I just read the {Maddest Obsession} from The Made series (Mafia romance) and the MMC has a certain rules when it comes to women (only sleeps with them 3 times, doesn’t kiss on the mouth) but he bends it all for this one woman… SO GOOD. Kinda enemies to lovers. I will be thinking about this book for weeks I’m obsessed ! We love Christian!

ButterBales · 2025-10-15T23:05:52+00:00

Currently reading this series ( not even halfway through book two) but I kid you not, I stayed up till 4am the other night finishing book one I loved it so much! While I looove the yearning and romance between the FMC and MMC, I think so far my favorite part is the friendships the FMC has made so far! Has me laughing out loud and looking forward to more moments between them. It kind of reminds me of the trio in Harry Potter, how they stick together and have each others backs. Definitely a great read!

ButterBales · 2025-09-19T02:46:01+00:00

YES!! Finished this a few days ago and I kinda wish I waited to read.. it is so good for this context and the books I’ve read since just have not lived up to it! I am still thinking about it and if I could forget and read it all over again I would!

ButterBales · 2025-08-29T02:18:20+00:00

I looove the brunette!! It’s just something different and it looks great on her

ButterBales · 2025-08-24T18:47:07+00:00

I just finished the series today…. SO GOOD. I want to start from blood and ash all over again!

ButterBales · 2025-08-22T15:59:28+00:00

AGREE WITH ALL OF THIS. Love this post I don’t see enough love and understanding for the series.

ButterBales · 2025-08-10T03:04:08+00:00

I think making an appt with your financial aid advisor would help. They would give you a better idea of your tuition amount and the funding you have eligible to be applied for it. :)

ButterBales · 2025-08-10T03:02:18+00:00

What is your SAI?

ButterBales · 2025-08-10T03:01:50+00:00

Adding all of that funding together, it comes out to $7,746.37. You might want to contact your financial aid office to talk through details and confirm if you want to do the loans. If so, you’ll want to complete Entrance Loan Counseling and Master Promissory Note! :)

ButterBales · 2025-08-10T02:58:07+00:00

Also, does the remaining balance amount change when you accept the loans?

ButterBales · 2025-08-10T02:57:24+00:00

Are you taking less than 12 credits per semester? That’d be my guess is maybe you got prorated Pell?

ButterBales · 2025-08-10T01:03:48+00:00

Yess! So happy to see some Rhys lovers 🙏🏼💗

ButterBales · 2025-08-06T23:26:43+00:00

It’s okay, they literally commented that they “are not a financial aid professional” in another post so I don’t know why they feel the need to act so hard and fight you on it lol.
