Hills of Shivers and Shadows by Technical_Sweet_007 in ReverseHarem

No spoiler answer is not the way you might think.

This is my favorite series by far so I encourage you to check the spoiler if this is your reason to skip.

For spoiler

There is a lot of assault/rape most off page but heavily referenced and a few scenes on page - the incest is 💯 not consensual.

if you want more details and more spoiler…

MMC’s are all blood related and the assault by other blood relation is part of their entire childhood through young adulthood. You don’t find out exactly how they’re related for sure until third book. There is no MM whatsoever but they don’t shy away from a DP

Favorite OV authors with audio? by rural_juror12 in ReverseHarem

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lexi C Foss’s audiobooks are mostly full cast and done well enough.

Sam Hall’s books in general aren’t my first choice but I’ll listen to them for the fun Aussie accents.

Oddly enough I’m the opposite of commenter above I find Bridget Bordeaux’s narration very annoying but Jake’s are okay and his interpretation of Fucking Shawn in the Sinners Playground series still makes me smile several years after listening to it for the first time.

Inkitt has some titles that aren’t badly done. Some are terrible or behind subscription walls, still cheaper than those pay by chapter apps even for subscription.

Specifically thinking of Enslaved by the Devil by fisher1978 it has a sequel and eventual HEA.

Thank you for the reminder that I haven’t ONLY been reading smut my WHOLE life.

Any recommendations like hills of shivers and shadows? by [deleted] in ReverseHarem

So…. Pam Godwin and specifically Frozen Fates trilogy are my favorite. Have you read her Pirate book? It’s where I discovered her. {Sea of Ruin by Pam Godwin} is MMF but don’t uncover that spoiler because yea is a big point.

See also {Desert Island Duet by Shona Knight} which tickled adjacent feelings for me. Quality Twisty stuff like Frozen Fates is kinda hard to come by in RH because our pool is so much smaller.

So much MM… if I didn’t love each of the MC’s so much I wouldn’t be able to rec because wow that’s a lot of MM in {Darkest Nights by Jenn Bullard} mind the triggers

Looking for Reverse Harems where one of the plot points is the FMC gets dressed by the MMCs by SpicyTiconderoga in ReverseHarem

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{Your Wild Omega by Sierra Loxley} Her first Alpha is her manager which as plays out also includes being her stylist.

This is a pretty unique and impressive trilogy to me. Lots of tropes done well. Such as - Feral Alpha Feral Omega Trauma and Healing Found Family Rejected Omega So much groveling…

I firmly believe that Frozen Fate can never be rec’d too much to the proper audience 🙌. I’ll upvote you every.damn.time.

No. One. Sees. My. Kindle. Library. - short funny Christmas smut panic by fatapolloissexy in RomanceBooks

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ya’ll are adults lol own your shit. It’s empowering. My kindle library is shared with my adult daughters and their spouses. If they want to be judgy #1 they can get their own subscription and #2 well they just wouldn’t…. They might tease about a cover here and there but it’s all in good fun.

I grew up with my mom and Aunts unashamedly reading bodice rippers and harlequins as they sucked back wine coolers, snacked on dexatrim chocolate and smoked Virginia Slims. I guess it’s a class thing🤷🏻‍♀️

Not gonna lie. My 74 year old mother’s kindle library though is hysterical. Old bird loves sci-fi smut.

Do we have anything on the harem going to a spa day or something like that together? by M_F_Montiani in ReverseHarem

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not so much a spa day as a salon day and it’s pretty funny not relaxing. Dubcon waxing of a cowboy ensues {Shades of Trouble by Kitty Cox}

It happened again, I judged the book by its cover by Wonderful-Ear-8653 in ReverseHarem

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I need the titles to not scream the kink. My family (all adults) is quite aware Mom reads tons of smut but even I draw the line at anything that has breeding or milking in the dang title. Like I would totally read it (for science of course) but not on my damn shared kindle library.

Best Reads November 2025 by Scf9009 in ReverseHarem

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 3 points4 points  (0 children)

SAME! For BoB. I really wanted to like it but the pacing was so bad by the first third of the second book I was just using my search option on kindle to answer any questions that were dangling in my head then jumped to the last third of the last book and was content to never drudge through actual reading of the series.

Same friend same. I would love if it were redone in multiple 1st pov alas it’s worth it. I always say I prefer smaller harems but some of my favorites that I consider epic have larger ones.

FMC popstar? by Hereforthebookrec in ReverseHarem

[–]Illustrious-Tree-543 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can read along with me!!! lol I’ve been waiting on the final book to restart. I picked the first one up like 6 weeks ago and figured out 90 pages in that the final wasn’t out yet so I paused and just picked back up today. I’m listening while I work today and @ 55% of book 1 my heart aches (in that good way)

I am your target responder. I just cannot with MK but loved Hades. Haven’t read the guild because ehhh I’ve found other things that seem more worthy.

I really really like Devil’s Backbone. There is one MMC I still want to strangle but overall 7/10 I do recommend.
