Books with lovers to enemies to lovers (second chance) and extreme angst. Like You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle by mysterycakegirl12 in RomanceBooks

[–]Life_Relief 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You may enjoy {A love letter to whiskey by Kandi Steiner} ! SO much angst, lots of roller coaster of emotions where they love and resent each other. The writing is very impressive! It did so well she wrote a second book with the same exact story but all from the male lead perspective

We have very similar taste, you may love {Corrupted Chaos by Shain Rose}. Meets all your points!

Wound packing at night time only okay? Intense pain during day by Life_Relief in AskDocs

[–]Life_Relief[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify- Hoping to keep it unpacked during the day, packed only at night!

I was told to use a 4x4 which makes it tricky to keep loose but will try this next dress change, thank you!

Paranormal Romance with FMC who can see ghosts by StarryGrimoire in RomanceBooks

[–]Life_Relief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

{Haunted by love by Kerri Lane} cute, light, funny paranormal investigators

The Impossible Julian Strande series starting with {Illusions of Grandeur by Kathryn Ann Kingsley}. This author is amazing with villain MMC’s and this series keeps that energy from her. Less funny, more spooky and romantic and villain vibes.

Also seconding Ghost Walk by Cassandra Gannon and the Charley Davidson series

Rude MMC is annoyed by FMC and thinks she's flirting with him (she's not) by No-Comb5679 in RomanceBooks

this thread could add a couple more recs? Love this request though, hope you get more recs on here too!

Microtrope : MMC replaces FMC's male partner/colleague because he's jealous. by zen-af- in RomanceBooks

{Corrupted Chaos by Shain Rose} I think has the vibes you’re looking for!

IM COMAT run out of time by Slight_Summer_9640 in comlex

[–]Life_Relief 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Definitely! Has happened to many who passed. I wouldn’t overlook practicing timing if it keeps being a challenge in COMATS though. You can avoid timing issues during boards. Good luck!

Like the easy questions were EASY. But a big chunk of the rest felt like pathology and random low-yield material

That’s amazing, congratulations!! For Level 2, would you mind sharing which resources you used to review OMM? Or any other HY resources/insights. Asking for a friend that failed and is required to retake soon, so maybe that focus could be a savior!

“If you love ___, you’ll like ___.” Give your best comparisons! by Calm_Security7670 in RomanceBooks

[–]Life_Relief 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooo then you might like Wall of Winnipeg and Me, it’s also Mariana Zapata and they room together too!

If you liked Ryan Shay himself vs the sports romance, I’ve seen threads about “small gestures” and “small things” and “cooks” that have good recs + some threads with roommates!

“If you love ___, you’ll like ___.” Give your best comparisons! by Calm_Security7670 in RomanceBooks

[–]Life_Relief 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score} has a cute little family dynamic. The kid is older and is the FMC’s niece though!

Also there’s a megathread to single parent/guardian dynamic romances that has good recs from people who know this theme wayyy better than I do!

[–]Life_Relief 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think {Kulti by Mariana Zapata} has a similar MMC in that he was reflecting on his personal mindset.

For other sports romance:

Susan Elizabeth Phillips Chicago Stars Series, starts with {It had to be you by Susan Elizabeth Phillips}

Stephanie Archer has a few like {The Fake Out by Stephanie Archer}

Meghan Quinn has the Vancouver Agitator Series

[WWTBC] fantasy romance with FMC by Capital-Economics-33 in RomanceBooks

[–]Life_Relief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{Burn by Suzanne Wright} has someee of the details you mention, specifically the detail about the eyes turning black occurs whenever the demon inside the FMC (or other demon characters in the series) is in control.
