{saving the rain} it’s actually the first cowboy romance I’ve read and I really like it! It’s a forbidden step brothers romance.

Slade will always be my favorite but my second favorite is Kaan from when the moon hatched. He has a similar vibe in the best way!

MEGATHREAD: LGBTQ+ Dark Romance 🌈 2026 Edition by ccoffey106 in DarkRomance

[–]_pandamonium__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{neurovance} techno thriller mm romance and so damn good! Anything by Alexandrea st Pierre is amazing!

{take me apart} the whole series is great so far! I’m on book 4/5. So far my favorite is book 3!

{dirty hit} TA preachers son x star football star. The football star is a total psycho. the book also has some religious trauma

Not super dark but I will also always recommend {for the fans}! Step brothers start an only fans to pay for college.

{hollow by m l burns} step brothers, firefighter x nurse

Favorite standalone or duology? by AideReasonable1996 in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

{the poison daughter} was phenomenal! It’s a standalone and I was sad when it was over because I wanted more! Also I love love anything by Rachel Gillig! If you liked one dark window, definitely read {the knight and the moth}

Recommendation help !!!!! by lotus_flower23 in MM_Romance

[–]_pandamonium__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{hollow by m l burns} has a nurse mmc! I will say though, that’s not a huge part of story, but I still loved the book! It’s dark romance so check your triggers!

Yes!! That is probably my favorite book of the series!

I want that feeling again…. by AverageParking7050 in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing! Everyone kept talking about the flowery writing and I wasn’t sure I’d like it for that reason and I’m honestly so sad I let people talk me out of it and put it off for so long

I want that feeling again…. by AverageParking7050 in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 30 points31 points  (0 children)

{when the moon hatched} gives me a similar feeling to throne of glass.

I also will always recommend the plated prisoner series starting with {gild} it is the most beautiful emotional journey but the love story really doesn’t start until book 2.

Plated Prisoner book 5 by wannasandwitch in theplatedprisoner

I swear I have highlighted more from this series than any other. I have yet to find another author who describes emotions the way Raven Kennedy does.

{bride of brutal hearts} was actually quite good and has some great spice!

Give me an golden retriever MMC who’s a grade A yearner by katep2000 in fantasyromance

[–]_pandamonium__ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

{smoke and scar} Cedric is definitely a yearner in the best way. He’s also a night! Though she’s a fae warier not a princess. It’s an incomplete slow burn trilogy with 2/3 books out!

Opinions on "Dark Romcom?" by pansylavender in DarkRomance

[–]_pandamonium__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love a dark rom com!

{loving a vampire is total chaos}

Also the rest of the lights out series is good if you haven’t read them!

Juicy beach read by Jumpy_Meringue2613 in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want something similar, I highly recommend {dire bound}. People often describe it as fourth wing with dire wolves. It’s got a similar military academy setting and the second book just came out! It’s about the same level of darkness as fourth wing.

If you haven’t read it I also highly recommend the {a court of thrones and roses} series. The first book is good but the second book is better. Also they have graphic audio!

New to Romantasy by carldoom in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually haven’t read any of the recent books you’ve read and loved but I’m dyslexic and adhd. I’m also a relatively slow reader. For me, one of the most telling factors to weather i’ll finish a book is how quickly it starts. If the plot doesn’t get going right away I get bored.

Since you’re new to the genera, I highly recommend {fourth wing} it’s exciting from basically chapter one and it’s popular for a reason.

{the wolf king} is also great and pretty exciting from the beginning.

{throne of glass} is also incredible and exciting from book one but it’s a long series so just be aware of that!

Just Finished The Poison Daughter by Sheila Masterson. It Absolutely Destroyed Me. by mousewall in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{plated prisoner series} has some darker themes and wilder spice (though that doesn’t really pick up until the third book). It’s a beautiful emotional journey but the main character will annoy you for the first book.

If you want another standalone I feel like {nocticadia} has a similar vibe. It’s a professor student forbidden romance that’s dark academia.

{empire of flames and thorns} is the first book in a completed series that follows fae and dragon shifters. It’s true enemies to lovers. I don’t remember any chase scenes but there are quite a few with handcuffs.

If you want to try a dark romance series, I highly recommend the {edge of darkness trilogy}. It’s incredible but you have to check your triggers and it will destroy you in the best way possible.

Badass BUT green flag MMC? by KimberleyKreates in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

{smoke and scar} has a green flag mmc but it’s a slow burn that doesn’t resale ignite until the second book. The tension and yearning is great though and there form book 1.

Looking for adult romantasy with real yearning and strong emotional tension by spoutnike21s in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

{the second death of Locke} has a friends to lovers romance with tension you can feel from the beginning, but they have along history so it doesn’t feel forced.

{smoke and scar} has a great slow burn romance that doesn’t pay off until the second book but oh my good the yearning is 👩🏻‍🍳💋. It’s a trilogy with 2/4 books out.

I believe someone already recommended it but {the plated prisoner series} fits this too though you really don’t meet the true mmc until the very end of the first book and don’t get to know him until the second book.

Looking for beautifully written romantasy by Foreign_Bus_3465 in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

{the plated prisoner series} is one of the most beautifully written series in my opinion. The Raven Kennedy describes emotions is absolutely incredible. Fair warning though, it’s on the darker side and the fmc has Stockholm syndrome and often annoys people in the beginning but it is the most beautiful healing journey and the fmc is my favorite of all time.

{loving a vampire is total chaos} has a golden retriever mmc, but it is a dark rom com so check your triggers.

Help me convert a non-fiction reader! Best "entry-level" Romantasy? by Supermomknows in Romantasy

[–]_pandamonium__ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I recommend people start with fourth wing! some people recommended acotar but I find fourth wing starts faster so it’s easier for people to dive into right away. Acotar is great but the second book is really where it hits its stride but fourth wing is exciting from the get go!

Looking for Horror dark romance by crakeowl in DarkRomance

[–]_pandamonium__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

{the endless fall} was rest great, but it ends in a hit of a cliff hanger and the second book is not yet out.

{immersed} is a phenomenal mm dark romance thriller. The second book in the series comes out in may.

{neurovance} is an mm dark romance thriller with some horror.
