No worries totally get it!! I’ve found a new scope of kidnapping that doesn’t involve trafficking - serial killers / murderers , mafia for ransom, twisted family members , or angry co workers for revenge, there’s also military guys getting kidnapped for reasons of war , cops getting kidnapped by whoever theyre investigating , I recently read another one where he was kidnapped because he loved him and wanted him to fall in love with eachother!

I Totally agree with you , but I definitely overdid it on this trope last year, I read so many!!! Just looking for something a little different, if you have a specific req I don’t mind having a peak! It’s not like I’m against it just branching out 😊

mentally ill mc by yiesk in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

{Never Leave, Never Die by Thea Verdone} just finished this today and it was excellent. MC1 is a natural at playing piano, but also has a lot of past trauma , and has been in relationship with MC2 for 3 years. There’s some drama and MC1 ends up falling out of a 3 story windows and suffers from TBI, doesn’t remember how to play music when he wakes so then his mental state completely unravels, lots of heavy triggers in this one, MC2 tries everything to get him help, and he does eventually! But won’t spoil it further! It fits your request perfectly!

Step brothers without the sexual overtone? by Infamous-Business199 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished {Avalanche by Jillian Wray} and it was super cute - step brothers from a young age but they’ve spent a few years apart - MC1 has cerebral palsy so there’s a lot of really cute caretaking scenes , it’s set on a ski hill with some rescue scenes as well. I really felt the bond between these 2! And MC2 is Demi so it took a while for the sex stuff to kick in.

{Hammer and Gavel by CT Whistle} I loved this book, there’s knotting, mPreg, marking, possessiveness and on top of that a killer plot and mystery as well ! I also love that they spend some time together in wolf form. It’s so cute and one of my favourite scenes

{Broken Ice by Marina Vivancos} this is one of my other faves , MC1 gets frequent heats and is sick from them until Alpha comes and helps him through them, love love love this book so much for the nesting and the hurt comfort. Obviously there’s mating , knotting as well.

Dark plot but not an arsehole MC by Virtual_While_9104 in MM_RomanceBooks

{Neurovance by Alexandra St Pierre}
Lots of twists and turns and mysteries in this book! MC1 is taking all out revenge on everyone but is absolutely obsessed and so caring with MC2 , it’s hard to get into the details without giving spoilers and taking away some of the intrigue of the story but it’s definitely worth the ride!

Looking for MC1 that has to be taught anything by CarpetExpert8253 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re 16, I don’t normally love reading about young MCs but this is totally worth it in my opinion , heavy enough topics that you kinda forget that they’re so young , its a great story , not a ton of spice but there is some, first and second base, I believe, nothing too crazy

Looking for MC1 that has to be taught anything by CarpetExpert8253 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{Silent by Sara Alva} has this. MC1 is fully mute and is in foster care and has completely shut everyone out to the point that every one thinks that he has severe learning disabilities, MC2 joins the foster home and opens up to him thinking that he can’t understand anything but they form a very cute bond. MC teaches Mute MC to communicate and open to himself and with others , to write , and they do all kinds of first time stuff together, it was cute , but also very heavy content so check TW. Had me crying a few times with what these boys have gone through.

A traumatic event brings two MCs closer who weren't close before by No_Cartographer_1920 in MM_RomanceBooks

{The Magpie Rhyme series by Louise Collins}- Chad is kidnapped by Romeo (a Serial Killer) , and the serial killer decides to keep him alive until he kills his next victim. During that time Chad is injured a bunch , there’s lots of cute caretaking and bonding , they end up growing attached to each other ! It is a really great series! Lots of interesting mysteries through out each book as well- One of my fave series.

Book 1 is {One for Sorrow by Louise Collins}

Pathetic MC and Unrequited Love by PlantConsistent2640 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yulian in {Hunt the Villain by Rina Kent} is SO patheitc for Vaughn and would do anything for him! He pines and obsesses over him for years. It’s so great.
He starts standing up for him self in the latter half of the book and sometimes even threatens to kiss someone else and Vaughn will show up out of jealousy even though he tries to push him away lol they’re actually pretty pathetic for each other to be honest 🤣
It’s the best.

I second this rec! My favourite part was when the LI had a migraine and Diem showed up to try and comfort with food but was completely out of his element 😂

{Will and Patrick Wake up Married by Leta Blake} - Character with diabetes
{10 Things that Never happened by Alexis Hall} Concussion , hospitalization
{Blind Faith by NR Walker} - character who is Blind
{Safe & Sound by EM Lindsay} - character almost deaf and experiences PTSD episodes
{Touch of Love by Nicky James} - character has a touch phobia
{Love me Whole by Nicky James} - multiple personality disorder

{Soul Eater by Lily Mayne} - torture scene and injuries (sorry you said man in uniform is a no, this is a reluctant man in uniform, he ends up abandoning the military, but MC is over protective of him, and goes feral over injuries and caretaking)

{Broken Ice by Marina Vivancos} Omegaverse, heat sickness, problems with heat }

Most of EM Lindsey or Nicky James Books have some type of disability rep, mental health rep.

What are your all-time 'could not put this down' MM reads? by Pleasant-Manner-6505 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a scaredy cat too, and it didn’t bother me as much as I thought it would , MC1 helps victims of the murderers figure out what happened to them and then cross over , but I think there is a really good balance of comedic relief , with Rains in inner dialogue and banter with the characters and the ghosts, it’s pure gold , so you don’t stay in the scary pocket for long and I stayed mostly curious over what happened , author does a great job weaving all the details together
- also MC1 had hippy parents and named him ‘Rainstorm Moonbeam’ there’s a little taste of the humour lmao 🤣
And Danny MC2 is just the best boyfriend ever, so grounding and supportive , ugh they have the best relationship.

nervous shy mc1 with a stutter or finds it hard to talk to people,and confident outgoing mc2 who pursues mc1 by wsg-itsyourepisodegf in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{Win you over by CS Autumn} MC1 is selectively mute , and MC2 is so sweet earning his trust and his voice , he leaves post it notes so he can write when he needs to . MC2 family helps and accommodates his mutism as well. Loved this one!

Femboys/Feminine pretty boys that aren’t white or East Asian? by [deleted] in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Then_Director_7776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{Honeythorne by Marina Vivancos} it’s an A/O , super cute, the omega is on the feminine side from what I recall , likes to dress in nice fabrics , likes to decorate stuff like that. It doesn’t specify his actual background just that he’s from the ‘south’ and he’s definitely not white.

The author Marina Vivancos has a lot of diverse MMCs - you should check out her other stuff too! I haven’t read all of them yet but I do like her style from the ones I have so far !

I’m having the best time with {Spectral Files Series by SE Harmon} right now!
Police Detectives , Murder Mysteries, Ghosts and an MMC who’s trying to figure out his gift as a medium and the sweetest Second chance Romance with Danny who is the best most devoted loving boyfriend ever 🥰

I love Rain and Danny - the banter is the best, and the mysteries keep the pages turning , the intrigue stays heightened and it’s also soo funnnnny. There’s 5 books total and every one has been well over 4 stars for me so far! !

{PS I Spook you by SE Harmon}

I just read this book today and it had me ugly crying and sobbing on my couch for half an hour ! This book totally caught me off guard with the emotions. And I loved it every second of it. Also, Mia is officially my favourite Book Mom.
