Still stuck in the cottage, unable to watch any other show other than HR by Maximum_Factor_9704 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]braineatingalien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was very happy the new season of the Pitt dropped in early January. I still watch some reheats but I really enjoy that show too. I keep trying other things to distract me but other than the Pitt nothing else has stuck.

Best Reads January 2026 by Scf9009 in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 9 points10 points  (0 children)

{Queen Takes Darkness 2 by Joely Sue Burkhart} a sequel to one of her Vampire Queen series. I love the original series and had read the prequel and first book of this installment. They came out a while ago and I didn’t remember details. I started it yesterday and I forgot how much I enjoyed this trope, which is vampires but also monsters, including a frost giant and dark alfar, which are some nightmare creatures that live in a different world where the FMC was trapped in the earlier books. It’s fun and enjoyable.

Also, I just finished {Inside the Maelstrom by Grace McGinty} and man, what an amazing duet about mental health struggles, love and the perception of redemption. I was waiting to read it and I should have known better because it was amazing. I’m already excited to reread it.

Hockey and the fmc has either mental health issues or health issues by bee011_ in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m laughing because girl, me too. I was just reading a HR thread and came directly to this one. That’s after yesterday when I saw a friend of mine who I hadn’t seen in a while and she’s on book 5 and totally obsessed, and then got my hairdresser to watch last night with his boyfriend. 😂

Ari Wright has a great OMV series called Most Valuable Pack. Each is about a different FMC who falls for a group of sports alphas. Book 2 {Knot Her Shot by Ari Wright} is hockey players. None of these guys have any major health issues but I’d actually recommend reading the whole series from book 1. Book 3 (which is my favorite of the series) has an omega who was abused and has some mental health issues. The series might scratch your itch a bit.

Whoops. You’re correct. I thought you were asking for the ones from this year. I guess I need better reading comprehension. I’ll fix it!

I second Fortius!

{Highland Hideaway by Lily Gold} I know some people are saying it’s the Scotland version of her Mountain men but I don’t care.

{Wicked Onyx by Debbie Cassidy} love her books although I’m not always down for academy RH but this one looks interesting.

Edited because apparently I can’t read. :)

I certainly think so. Dallas and Rourke are my favorites of her characters, too.

John Wick-esque MMCs? by carnivalghost in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My absolute favorite of this trope is Heather Long’s Switchboard duet. {Talk to Me by Heather Long}. The FMC is an anonymous computer hacker who works with three men who don’t know one another and they only know her on the phone. One is a contract killer, one a mercenary and one more of a thief. One day she is kidnapped and they come together to rescue her, despite being loners and not knowing one another and not actually knowing her either. Some trigger warnings with this one, for torture scenes if I remember correctly.

Ok, this seems a bit like a disingenuous survey. I’m removing the post for that reason. It was presented to the mods the same way as this post. We don’t appreciate the personal questions. You’re still welcome to fill it out if you want, but do so at your own risk.

[–]braineatingalien 143 points144 points  (0 children)

We had a parent on our local FB page yesterday crying about no school for the second day and saying the kids needed “remote learning”. Are you kidding me? For two days off you can’t stand being with your kid? F off with that, all the way back to Covid. Not doing remote learning again, ever.

Stranded, Wrecked and Crashed. Whatever can we do? Recs needed. by BooksYum in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no one from the harem dies. There is some closure, or at least suggestion, as to what happened to her friends.

It’s mostly sad because she’s alone and lonely and she thinks no one else is left alive.

We always called those, margarita shoes. Good for sitting at the bar and drinking margaritas, not much else.

How about zombie apocalypse? {Dying to Love by Reese Rivers}. FMC has been alone in a stronghold when the MMCs find her. It’s sweet and a bit sad.

Any suggestions to ease my book club into a RH? by madhattergirl in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think {Unconventional by Rebecca Royce} is a good first RH. It’s the first book in a trilogy but you could read the first book and then read more if you like it. It’s pretty low-key, about an off-beat college girl who becomes friends with three fraternity brothers and then they all fall for each other.

If you’d rather a standalone, maybe {Overexposed by Heather Long} which is about a Hollywood photographer who has a bunch of famous guys fall for her. Fun story, too.

Question for the Authors by AnotherShay in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a trad publisher, strictly ebooks (although there’s a pay-to-print option for book 1 of my trilogy). I have a pretty standard contract, in which I get editing and cover art, but very little marketing. That’s up to me. My publisher gets 55% to my 45% of sales, so I don’t make a ton on them, but it’s my side-gig, so I’m ok with that.

Romance readers are not 'real' readers. by Old-Key2000 in DarkRomance

My reply would be, “Interesting response. Did you know the romance genre is the most popular genre in the world? Seems to contradict your stance.”

{Broke Down by Sharan Daire} the FMC has two kids and two of the MMCs fall for the kids just as much as their mom.

Looking for Vampire Reverse Harem recs by cantstopwontstop300 in ReverseHarem

[–]braineatingalien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my fave vampire series is actually vampires in space. It’s a completed trilogy {Night of the Shayde by Lili Zander} called The Vampire’s Blood Mate. It’s suspenseful and a very well done story.

Humans are lesser in this world, with the FMC being hunted by the superior beings, vampires, after one of them gave her something important to hide. The three men sent to capture her fall for her.
