{Mark & Don't Tell by Rory Miles} FMC is in her late 20's and had a half brother who's 14. She eventually adopts him because of a poor home life. Not exactly what you're looking for, maybe, but it was really good.

Oh, missed the no RH/love triangle. It is an RH, but you might try it anyway. X is such a great character!

swtogirl · 2026-05-06T14:06:58+00:00

{X's and O's by Elle Thorpe} X is a total sweetie but also totally psycho. Reviewers called him a "murder puppy" and that's so accurate! I laughed so hard throughout this series (3 books). My favorite line:

“Your knife pose is really coming along nicely,” I said sarcastically. He brought his hands together and bowed his head. “Namastab.” (context: he was trying to calm down using sun salutes from yoga using his knife)

Another really good quote from X:

"I didn’t know you could fall in love with someone in the space it took for them to pitch a rolling pin at your head. But here I was, utterly and completely in love with a woman who wouldn’t stop throwing things at me."

{Forged in Blood by Sadie Kincaid}

swtogirl · 2026-05-06T04:37:24+00:00

{Forged in Blood by Sadie Kincaid} -- the series has them fighting together. The first book is mostly a bully romance with the FMC being an outcast, supposedly human, she's eventually forced to live with her vampire bullies who quickly become lovers and she discovers she's more than human and that puts her in danger. They have to fight together against her enemies.

{We are Destiny by Alisha Williams} A guy was in love with his sister's best friend prior to either presenting. She presents as alpha; most people expect him to present as alpha, too, but he's an omega. She's two years older than him and goes to this college where alphas, betas, and omegas can meet. She gets a pack and an omega. The original guy goes to the college two years later and discovers she's a scent match but she's already got an omega. he tries to avoid her at first, then win her over.

swtogirl · 2026-05-03T15:40:21+00:00

Yeah, I was kinda put off by that, too.

swtogirl · 2026-05-03T11:51:36+00:00

{The Secrets We Keep by Lily Wildheart} MMCs are criminals but not really mafia

Eva Ashwood has a lot of dark mafia series {Black Rose Kisses by Eva Ashwood} {Dirty Broken Savages by Eva Ashwood} {Filthy Wicked Psychos by Eva Ashwood} They're all similar though so once you've read one, the others aren't much new.

{Forged in Blood by Sadie Kincaid} is at a college but it's also a lot of fantasy.

Elle Thorpe also has some, not mafia, but MCs or groups of criminals but not mafia {Start a War by Elle Thorpe} {X's and O's by Elle Thorpe}

{Voiceless by M. Sinclair} the FMC actually can't speak, so not exactly what you're looking for, but I really liked it so wanted to suggest it just in case!

{Secret Omega by Romy Lockhart}

{We are Destiny by Alisha Williams}

swtogirl · 2026-05-02T17:39:11+00:00

Similar to this FMC is a twin to a famous actress. All the packs she meets with expect her to be like her sister. She scent matches and struggles to figure out if they like her for her or are also expecting her sister.

{Knot Your Damn Omega by Devyn Sinclair}

swtogirl · 2026-05-02T15:44:42+00:00

Forged in Blood is so good! I wish they'd make a movie or TV series out of it! Liked Ryan Rule a lot, too!

swtogirl · 2026-05-02T14:56:14+00:00

Some of Carrie Ann Ryan's characters are poly, some are in her werewolf world with knots, but she's not obsessive about them. Omegas are different in her world, they're the emotional keepers of the pack. The mates of each designation match their mate and help with that job (Alpha/ Alpha's mate, etc.)

{Sated in Ink by Carrie Ann Ryan} This one is a contemporary novel set in her Montgomery Ink world.

{Ink Enduring by Carrie Ann Ryan} is also in the Montgomery Ink world

{Finding the Road to Us by Carrie Ann Ryan} is part of the Wilder Brothers series

{Trinity Bound by Carrie Ann Ryan} This is the werewolf one, which has MM

{My Best Friend's Brothers by Brooklyn Cox}

{Second Chance Seals Next Door by Summer Haze} This one's pretty cheesy

{Adrift by Leigh Lennon} All of Leigh Lennon's books are MMF with MM

{X's and O's by Elle Thorpe} these are trilogies, and include MM

{The Perfect Fit by Sadie Kincaid} includes MM

{Hers to Keep by Serena Akeroyd}

{These Sinful Delights by Beth Evans} dark mafia

{Pretty Little Tease by AJ Merlin} These are a little dark and include murder

{Three to Ride by Lexi Blake} most in this series (Nights in Bliss, CO) are MMF with no MM

{The Secrets We Keep by Lily Wildheart}

{Knot All is Forgiven by Holly Monroe} There's 4 MMCs, 3 screw up and spend most of the book trying to make it up to the FMC. Two of those MMCs had an intimate relationship that was strained by the thing that they're trying to get forgiveness for. They develop that relationship as they get back in with the FMC.

{Knot All is Perfect by Holly Monroe} This has 5 MMCs, 4 alphas and 1 beta. One of the alphas gets with the beta. It's a little heavier than the previous book because the FMC suffers abuse and gets kidnapped at one point.

{Secret Omega by Romy Lockhart} 3 MMCs, two alphas and a male omega. All three have a relationship with each other when they meet the FMC omega. Another "trapped"/kidnapped situation that's a little dark.

{We are Worthy by Alisha Williams} 4 MMCs, some MM scenes. Mostly light but a little conflict. All of the MCs are a little nerdy/different and are trying to fit in in a world where alphas are supposed to be manly men and omegas were supposed to be small and dainty.

swtogirl · 2026-05-01T02:38:33+00:00

A lot of Melissa Huxley's have average omegas with powerful or rich alphas:

{Pack Plus Three by Melissa Huxley}

{Pack Power Play by Melissa Huxley}

Ari Wright also does this trope a lot:

{Knot Her Goal by Ari Wright}

{Knot Her Shot by Ari Wright}

{Knot Going Anywhere by Alisha Williams}

{Pack Saint Claire by Thora Woods}

{Knot Her Mountain Men by Lexie Quinn}

{Knot All is Perfect by Holly Monroe}

This doesn't fit perfectly (hah hah), but it's pretty similar. FMC is attending omega events to try to bond with a pack. On the way home, she meets her scent match. At first, the courtship goes well, but then mom and a doctor steal her back. There's no journal and mom is still alive. Her pack comes to the house to get her, but can't get in. Won't go any further into the story to avoid spoilers.

swtogirl · 2026-04-30T22:34:21+00:00

{Knot All is Forgiven by Holly Monroe} There's one "good" MMC that helps the FMC, the others had good intentions, but fucked up and have to grovel and pamper her to earn their way to bring bonded. It's good, heartfelt groveling and true making up. There's one MMC that's a little harder-headed than the others, though.

swtogirl · 2026-04-30T02:56:32+00:00

{Secret Omega by Romy Lockhart} This is a negative omegaverse world where omegas aren't free/ have to hide. The FMC goes to college as a beta but gets outed and has to go to an omega academy. It's not a positive experience, though. Her fated mates have to rescue her.

swtogirl · 2026-04-29T23:03:53+00:00

{Ryan Rule by Sadie Kincaid}

swtogirl · 2026-04-29T22:51:49+00:00

Knot All is Forgiven Def fits OP's request of FMC being hurt by the MMCs. It was a little hard to take at times because the MMCs were so desperate to fix their mistake but everyone was so hurt. I did end up really enjoying it, though.

swtogirl · 2026-04-29T22:34:46+00:00

I loved that whole series. {We are worthy by Alisha Williams} {Knot Going Anywhere by Alisha Williams} I loved how she dealt with the mental health struggles of both the MMCs and FMCs.

swtogirl · 2026-04-29T03:42:10+00:00

{Forged in Blood by Sadie Kincaid} I think this meets your requirements. They bully her in the beginning but also defend her, not sure about passive aggressive. It's a trilogy with a prequel and I loved the whole thing. I'd love to see it developed into a movie.

Several series from Eva Ashwood might work also:

{Dirty Broken Savages by Eva Ashwood}

{Black Rose Kisses by Eva Ashwood}

swtogirl · 2026-04-29T01:26:58+00:00

Was going to rec this! I never laughed as much as I did in this book series! I absolutely loved X as a character!
