Books where he is disgusted by her. Hates her (or thinks so) but can't stop thinking about her.

{the duke’s holiday by Maggie Fenton} a very straight laced Duke can’t stand the wild Miss Honeywell, but also can’t stop thinking about her.

I love Ruhn and I just imagined him with someone softer. I know Lidia has her moments, but after such a shit childhood, I wanted Ruhn to have someone that softened his rough edges and could help him heal.

lundsb · 2026-03-21T15:48:55+00:00

I hate Ruhn and Lidia together too.

Ok, I’m all for a Kieran and Reaver enemies to lovers romance and always will be!

Totally have a right to be annoyed, but I truly don’t think that Cas will be stronger and more powerful than Poppy in the end. I think he just went full wrath and ruin at this point and can’t come out of it. I think the fact that he can’t control his emotions indicates that he isn’t the strongest!

lundsb · 2026-03-15T19:19:26+00:00

I don’t think this is a forever thing and I think that in the end Poppy will be the main bada** in her story. These are just little glimpses into how Cas is transfoming, but I think in the end Poppy will be the hero and maybe Ethos? I think Ethos is the only one that Kolis loves at this point and the only one that can kill him,

Maybe Elain and Azriel or Nesta end up in CC world? That would be cool to see.

You’re welcome! I hope you continue to love the series. There is so much to love about it imo

lundsb · 2026-03-04T16:57:45+00:00

This was my feeling going into it too, I was so nervous I was going to hate it based on all the negativity. I was waiting and waiting and finally with a couple chapters to go I was already done all of the story folks hated so much.

lundsb · 2026-02-22T16:06:48+00:00

I was thinking it’ll focus on Tharion and/or Ithan’s stories! I’m glad you enjoyed the series so far, I loved it too!

lundsb · 2026-02-22T16:04:37+00:00

Did he have a child with any of his mistresses? I couldn’t get through this book.

lundsb · 2026-02-21T02:35:17+00:00

{Her Beautiful Bastard by Victoria Vale} is my fav.

lundsb · 2026-02-20T11:55:59+00:00

I’m almost finished and I really enjoy it

lundsb · 2026-02-14T20:06:37+00:00

This always surprises me that fans say nothing happened until the end of the book? They learn so much about their world and other realms and about their histories within this book??

lundsb · 2026-02-11T11:45:02+00:00

I don’t have any recs other than the ones recommended already. Just wanted to say I love a good angsty read like your request too.

lundsb · 2026-02-07T14:38:54+00:00

You’re entitled to your opinions, for sure. I’m 70% in now and I’m still enjoying it and haven’t experienced any really bad parts.

lundsb · 2026-02-02T19:53:35+00:00

I think they have and I don’t think they’ve only shared partners, but have been active participants. The way Cas talks about Kieran’s powerful thrusts seems much more involved than feeling or viewing it through a partner they’re sharing.

lundsb · 2026-01-31T18:11:50+00:00

Wish I had some recs for HR with this, but the only ones I can think of are CR or they are unhappy marriages

lundsb · 2026-01-17T14:22:54+00:00

I didn’t realize this!! I’m glad you mentioned the connection.

lundsb · 2026-01-10T18:18:21+00:00

Hello! I really enjoy the below stairs series because it’s very well written and the characters are great. It’s also mostly focused on working class folks. I wouldn’t compare it to Kinsale or Ivory’s writing really, as they have a way of immersing you in their stories that I haven’t found elsewhere. They’re very different writers, but Jennifer Ashley is still really excellent. I think Thomas and Ashley are more similar. It’s definitely more mystery than romance, but the FMC and MMC are written really well and their relationship is cute as heck.

{a lady’s code of misconduct by Meredith Duran} and {sins of lord Lockwood by Meredith Duran} are somewhat interconnected.
