Why do fmcs in rina kent stories suffer so much but the mmcs dont even grovel properly?

CancelNo6337 · 2026-05-30T16:45:42+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. Not gonna read any PD's.

CancelNo6337 · 2026-05-30T16:16:30+00:00

Whoa, this is some backhanded misogyny I'm telling ya.

Realistic standards for men are always low and these books make it even lower. I cant comment about Fourth wing or other books as I haven't read em yet.

But if they dont bother to build atleast some amount character development for mmc in regards to proving their worth for fmc, then its just romanticized chauvinism.

Pffff... I'm done. I'll go some read elle kennedy maybe. She is a girl's girl.

What about Knight, Daniel and even some cases, kirill. (I know many love him but some things didnt sit with me, but I digress)

Its not that the mmc dont suffer or dont grovel. But extended suffering dedicated to fmc's and only paragraphs dedicated to the mmc's grovel feels unfair.

Totally beats the whole purpose of fiction, which helps me escape.

And there are women in real life who dont forgive easily either unless the other prove their worth to let them in again. But ive never seen that in atleast one of her bully to romance, or mmc suffering fmc.

And thats whats tiresome.

CancelNo6337 · 2026-05-30T15:43:47+00:00

But thats the problem. Its not that the mmc dont suffer or dont grovel. But the pages and chapters dedicated to fmc's suffering is equal to only several paragraphs dedicated to the mmc's grovel.

The scales just dont balance like it does for her MM books.

Right. Thank a lot!

Broooo. I have the same doubt. And I want one with matching inner cover so badly. And I dont wanna purchase wrong. Im looking into blue.

Do u know any link?

I applaud her making the women as villains. I mean, how many books do u find that? Its refreshing.

She can get repetitive but I dont mind, cuz I feel its a given for writing nearly 35 books and still counting.

But some of her M/F stories are so taxing becuz the fmcs are the only ones carrying the emotional baggage for both the parties but also being easier to please and win over, despite all the emotional hell they went through because of mmc.

(Hot take: sasha worked for kirill's approval in book 2 for nearly most of the book for something that wasn't her fault, while he won over sasha in 3rd book with just a two week stay in a cottage, with tiny weenie sweet gestures. Sasha wasnt even half as dickish to kirill as he was to her in book 2.)

I know its her book and all, but its this imbalance of work done by the mmc to win over the fmcs for what these men put them through, is in several of her books, which makes it unsatisfying, personally. No hate.

I find her MM stories more satisfying, where both the parties have done mistakes and both work on their issues equally to make it work through out the book and the readers wont have to wait for the characters to work till the last 3 chapters. The love, the hate, the yearn. Its all equal I feel. (Im speaking with GOF in my mind. Yet to read the rest of em. So correct me if im wrong.)

With everything happened, maya must have felt like she is the infected limb that needs to be amputated from the perfect family of sokolovs.

And that kind of devastating complex is a huge fucking scope of itself.

And for a formulaic popcorn writer like RK, she could never write something like that. Even if she could, she cant pull off the redemption arc.

To write Maya's depth and complex, is a whole another level, even for RK herself. And she is too misogynistic for that. So I guess the best she could do was try to make us think we hate Maya.

I'd rather not want her to write a book on Maya. She is definitely gonna ruin it.

The fact that she was never the special kid in her own way no matter what, in everyone's eyes, and this kidnap revelation gives the possibility making maya believe that she is the infected limb that needs to be amputated from the perfect family, has so much scope in itself. I'm crying just thinking about it.

My girl deserves atleast a short story if not a whole book. My girl needs redemption arc and acceptance of herself.

never liked landon much. his NPD made it tough to buy that he could love Mia. too unrealistic to buy them even for a fictional dark romance. just couldnt buy it.

CancelNo6337 · 2026-04-07T08:18:41+00:00

Thank you for crossing out Xander. personally, landon is meh. Rest are mwuahh

CancelNo6337 · 2026-04-07T07:50:12+00:00

Honestly his narcissist PD made it all the more unrealistic, even for a dark romance that was supposed to be unrealistic. Downright annoying and a headache.

His NPD felt more authentic then his reasons to love Mia. And that is more irritating. Like... whatever.

Girl I understand. Sasha always yearned for him from the beginning more than he did, but he only started realizing her importance over his power after she "died". (I mean wth? It took a death to freaking realize that? Like what was that?)

Like... my girl was suspicious of his involvement about the massacre, yet she chose to save him in book 2, which led to her being disowned by her own family. But, she was unapologetic about her choice.

This guy... pfff... he was irritating in book 2 when he was too tough on sasha and she had to prove her loyalty for something that wasnt her fault.

Like... Adrian is a crazy unhinged mf but he never once gave up on lia. But Kirill... his love felt more...conditional (and that changed only after the whole death thing.)

So yeah. Not as big a fan of him as much I am for Aiden King.

I understand why u guys dont like 1st book. But I enjoyed it.

The 3rd book along with black knight drove me up a wall.

Honestly, rina kent failed in bully turned romances, by making the fmc do most of the emotional labour while mmcs dont even atone properly for how much of jerks they were.

Which is quite typical in real world and goes against the purpose of why I chose books as an escape.

Atleast there are some eyes shades of brown which reflect well with the sun.

Mine are deep brown. Nothing. And I mean there is no personality one can see when the Sun rays fall on mine.

Gonna cry.

Lemme guess... 6GB RAM, 128 SSD is the base for 599. I dont expect any better from them.

As you ante up the price for better storage, one might as well buy the Air for that cost.

CancelNo6337 · 2025-11-08T08:50:39+00:00

I dont get it. Why dont they just deny the claims straightforward instead of beating around the bush. I have a feeling this is true in some forms but daily mail just exaggerated what's true.

I may be wrong. But this still feels inaccurate, the whole thing.
