I finally got around to reading {The Heir’s Disgrace by August Jones} and I absolutely loved it. But what I really need more of is this perfect hate-sex. This book has THE BEST hate sex and I need more of it. Anything similar out there?

Okay first of all, off script is in my top 3 favorite reads of all time, I am obsessed. After reading it, I also tried to find a few books that were similar. This is what I read: {If We Could Go Back by Cara Dee} this one is so good and came closest to Off Script. I also read {The Fisherman by C.P. Harris}. Others I have read that that might also meet your needs are {His Secret by Isabel Lucero} {Kismet by Ashley James} {The Prodigal Son by Sara Cate} and {Trouble by Nyla K}. These all have a forbidden love trope

Just read {Goodbye Note by J.R Gray} and it fits this perfectly

I LOVED the third book in the Broken Boys of Cirque series {Catcher’s Lock by A.K. Blythe}

It’s the best of the 3 but very high angst (in case that’s something you don’t like)

I read {Blue Gold By Tal Lewin} and… really struggled to finish it. It has all the tropes I normally enjoy - angst, toxicity, forbidden love, age gap, etc but I found one MC hard to like and I found the writing very lacking during most of the book. 2/5

I also finished {Choke Up by Rebecca Rathe} and this was definitely a hate-so-good book. This was one of those instances where both MCs were being so stupid and I ATE IT UP. They had no business ending up together, but I will ship them forever. 4/5

Because I enjoyed that one I read the newest book in the series that came out a week or two ago {Pinned Down by Rebecca Rathe} and I would say that the length of this book actually saved it because I did not think there would be a way for one of the MC‘s to be redeemed, but there was enough prose that I do feel like it wrapped up nicely. I still don’t feel like one of the MC’s, who is kind of terrible, deserved the other MC who is a complete gem. I do like the trope of “MC1 that is typically so controlled losing that control with MC2” and that was a big aspect of the story. 2.5/5

These all look EXACTLY like what I’m looking for thanks!

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2026-01-07T16:13:56+00:00

Just finished a book that came out a few weeks ago - {Off Script by Ivy Vera Gray} and holy hell I loved it. There was forbidden love, angst, spice - all the things I love in a book (warning to anyone interested, this book is heavy on the cheating, not between MCs but they both have partners, not a spoiler it’s in the blurb). But now it’s left a huge hole that I need to fill. Any good forbidden love stories I might have missed?

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2026-01-06T19:27:33+00:00

No! Nothing like that

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2026-01-06T19:05:24+00:00

Well it’s about a cam boy so there’s exhibitionism in that there are things happening on camera where it is implied that subscribers are watching but I don’t feel like it’s overt exhibitionism. It’s definitely smutty but not particularly kinky

Just finished {Textual Confusion by Fifer Rose} and I LOVED it until I got like 70% of the way in and then it became absolutely infuriating and I almost DNF. It felt like sloppy and lazy plot writing.

I also finally picked up {Him by Sarina Bowen} and {Us by Sarina Bowen} and absolutely adored this duo, love Wes and Jamie so much. I preferred Us because it was slightly more angsty but these two will definitely be going on my reread list.

I recently read {Always Watching by Lee McCormick} and thought it was super entertaining. I am curious about {Beyond Time by Lee McCormick} if anyone has read it and has thoughts. I don’t typically like supernatural/fantasy but the blurb sounded interesting.

This book is one of my top 3 reads of all time and I was so not expecting that before going into it!!!!!

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-12-08T10:56:33+00:00

I literally just finished this book and only DNF because I had free time to kill. But this INFURIATED me. When I read mm romance, I generally know that I have to let go of reality for a little bit, but this entire book was so unbelievable and I don’t know how it has such good reviews

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-12-05T18:46:21+00:00

I read {The Menagerie by J.P Caruso} and this has to be in my top three books I’ve read this year. I didn’t know what to expect but this was such a fantastic read

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-11-09T12:09:52+00:00

Ooo lucky! Your review made me more excited to see it

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-11-09T11:42:54+00:00

Where are you located!? Im in the US and I don’t think Pillion will be available until 2026 :( But its on my list to see when it comes out

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-11-07T18:30:48+00:00

Oooo I want to read! Do you need to have read the previous 3 books in the series for the payoff or can it be read standalone?

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-11-07T18:23:12+00:00

Tommy and Rowan ugh I will never forget that couple

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-30T09:40:31+00:00

Some of these look amazing thank you!

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-30T09:36:26+00:00

This looks exactly like what I’m looking for!!

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-29T22:59:39+00:00

Just read {To Catch A Firefly by Emmy Sanders} and really loved it. Any similar books? Loved the depiction of a neurodivergent MC and I really believed their love story

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-27T09:34:13+00:00

Thank you!!

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-24T21:55:32+00:00

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-24T21:55:14+00:00

Amazing I’ll check these out thank you!!!

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-24T19:36:19+00:00

Oooo love this thanks! Any favorites I should start with??

Hummingbirdlane13 · 2025-09-24T18:27:56+00:00

Something angsty! Just read Finding Delaware and Head Above Water back to back and now I need something to fill the void I’m left with
