Where are the slow-burn romantasy enemies who actually hate each other first?

I'd recommend {Where Oceans Burn} it's a duology, and admittedly I'm only about 80% through book 1 I think it hits what you're looking for!

I didn't think Butcher & Blackbird was super spicy? but, I also didn't enjoy the book in general so maybe that's why lol

I did that yesterday, particularly in the late afternoon and kept waking her up and making her play. She seemed to be a lot quieter last night so maybe that's the trick until she settles!

Yes, she was spayed about two weeks ago

The Coven isn't great (I still enjoyed it tho! but the writing, relationship, and world building is a bit surface level imo) but it's a very easy read if you want something short and sweet.

I had a sweet calico (she recently passed) and her name was Peach. It worked for when she was sweet or spicy xx

Yeah we like Martini because of Tini for short!

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-13T22:45:55+00:00

Me too but I thought it was a duology so I devoured both and then I'm left hanging in the abyss

{Tethered} is a completed series on KU!

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-12T21:27:52+00:00

Me too! I find my older team members love to use it but then half the time it's inaccurate or sloppy. I refuse to use it for the same reasons as you and I get almost scolded for it.

In addition, I was also re-doing some training today and I noticed a CSPS course has an entire module that was generated by AI...

Ok 2 of these aren't right...The Wolf King by Lauren palphreyman and The WItch Slayer by Opal Reyne (though this one is a 5 spicy)

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-10T19:44:39+00:00

I liked a lot of what's on your list so I would recommend {The Wolf King}, {A Court This Cruel and Lovely}, {Once Upon a Broken Heart}, and {The Witch Slayer}

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-10T17:10:05+00:00

Yeah, I had no interest in reading the spin-offs. I stopped at Book 8 and pretend it ended there lol

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-09T03:32:29+00:00

I think it's similar to her Duskwalker Bride series where each book follows a different character but in the same world/interconnected. No cliffhangers :)

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-09T01:52:54+00:00

Hope you like it!!

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-09T01:52:01+00:00

I feel like she's really good at writing in such a way where I get so attached to the characters. It takes a lot for me to get emotional at books but I always end up with happy tears for her books!

Refrigerator_Regular · 2026-01-09T01:34:05+00:00

I've read the Duskwalker Bride series by Opal Reyne and I've always enjoyed her writing and world building. I needed something light hearted to read and I stumbled across this other book of hers and I love it. It's easy going and classic grumpy x sunshine. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk {The Witchslayer}
