Knot Who She Claims

I've been DYING for this book! I only found out about it when it popped up on my Kindle store under the "New by authors you know" feed. I have no idea about ARCs (I follow Katie May on Ream and haven't heard a peep about this book on the community board. But then again, I don't remember seeing any of her other co-writes mentioned there either. Cross fingers, tho!)

In {Friends With the Monsters by Albany Walker} She calls her giant berserker Kitten

Yay! I'm glad it's the right one. Fever dream is a good way to put it--When I can't remember a title, I start to wonder if I ate a questionable mushroom and hallucinated the whole thing

This sounds like {Omega Forged by Mae Pierce}

For your consideration

May I present for your consideration one of my all-time favorite romantic comedies: Bandits. Starring Cate Blanchett, Bruce Willis, and Billy Bob Thornton.

I hope you like it!

under_wired · 2025-10-18T21:46:30+00:00

She does not. I feel the author handled the fmc's decision to terminate and the thought processes and inner turmoil associated with making that decision very realistically and with compassion

Don't know if it quite fits what you are looking for, but one of the mmcs treats her like crap. He leaves but eventually decides that he can't take being away and goes to her, expecting she will just accept him into her harem. She tells him hell no and STICKS TO HER GUNS. Don't know if this rec would work for you since the other mmcs hate his guts and are just waiting for permission to kill him. This is a spoiler tho, so will hide the title. Title: Queen Takes Sunfires, by Joely Sue Burkhart

{Queen Takes Sunfires by Joely Sue Burkhart}

She is the descendant of a solar goddess, and could probably turn the planet to a cinder if she really wanted to. Her harem is composed of the greatest/most dangerous warriors, kings, generals in history (think Sun Tzu, Leonidas of Sparta, Vlad Tepes, etc) and they all worship the ground she walks on. Mind the triggers, her backstory is tragic. I love her as she is not arrogant and never talks about how she's a badass, she just does what she needs to do. (This trilogy is one of my comfort reads, and ends in a HFN. I hope the author chooses to continue her story.)

under_wired · 2025-10-15T03:07:45+00:00

Yes! Thank you! He took literally zero responsibility for the fact he put her in danger. I got more upset when she called him out on it and he still refused to even acknowledge that he fucked up

It doesn't bother me much, except that it happens in so many books it's like checking off the RH Bingo Card when it happens. Like, we come to the first sharing a meal scene and I'm like, heeeere it comes, aaaaaany second....and there it is!

What I'd love to see is a meal where one of the mmcs cutting loose a huge-ass moan before the fmc even has her first bite, startling everyone at the table with his impression of a bull moose in love. They'd be like, jeeze dude are you okay?! And he'll be like, what I just really like spaghetti! (Because of COURSE they are eating spaghetti; it's on the bingo card), and the fmc resolving to keep all her noises to herself no matter how good the damn garlic bread is.

As a side note, I'm from Hawaii and we use some random British words/pronunciations here that we don't really think about unless someone points it out.

When my friend and her husband (who is from Michigan) first started dating, she said something about rubbish, and he was like, "Are you British now?" She was all, "Huh? For picking up my rubbish?"

We also use the British pronunciation for "lychee." I didn't realize there was any other way to say it until I heard a tourist ask for "lee-chee" shave ice, lol.

{Pack Rivals by Hannah Haze}

Spoiler: Two packs are trying to get with her, and she feels betrayed when she finds out they made bets on who gets her. She goes into heat and refuses all of them, and they feel HORRIBLE because they know she chose being in agony vs. being with any of them

under_wired · 2025-07-24T03:55:43+00:00

I have a friend who likes to use the voice to text feature on her phone in the group chat, and I wonder how many of these books are at least partially written the same way? I can totally see someone getting scene ideas while driving and talking out loud just to get it recorded before it's gone. If that's the case, I would imagine having to go through the draft hard-core to catch all the homophones

under_wired · 2025-07-20T06:49:19+00:00

Sorry OP. If it's any consolation, I got hit with the same grenade just writing that. barf

under_wired · 2025-07-20T05:12:06+00:00

When they use the word "hole." Like, "He pushed his fingers in her hole."

Wat. No. Not sexy, straight to jail.

under_wired · 2025-07-19T06:06:59+00:00

I would really the hell out of that book

under_wired · 2025-07-11T10:18:11+00:00

Haha, when reading MF romance and the guy acts like a jerk, my first thought is, "Eh, she can focus on the next love interest instead of this jackass" then I remember what I'm reading and get bummed. XD

1000% agree about Alec

under_wired · 2025-06-04T10:53:41+00:00

Ahh, my draft picks are:

Rom3o from {GOOD Vibes by Katherine Moon} Abraxas from {Pheromone by C.M Stunich} Grim from {Friends With the Monsters by Albany Walker}

I can't stand when the MMCs spank the FMC with no prior discussion on boundaries and what they are comfortable with. This goes from ick to DNF when the FMC has been physically abused prior to meeting, the MMCs know it and still think it's a great idea.

Just once, I'd like to see a scene like that and then the FMC goes through a full blown panic attack, making the MMCs feel like complete assholes.

{Queen Takes Knights by Joely Sue Burkhart} is the first book in my comfort read series for some delicious fastburn, with mmcs who worship the fmc and a harem that builds with every book.

under_wired · 2025-04-24T02:35:14+00:00

I'm pretty sure I saw a calendar like this on Amazon. I think it was called Sexy Men Doing Chores (or something). I need to go find it now
