Recs if you like Lie to Me...

Romances where the FMC has been victim of SA and is now healing and learning how to trust again or is assaulted 🍇 in the book itself and the after is part of the plot as well.

(Added some content to the recs in the comments. Please do your own research into the potential triggers as well before diving into any of these as some are quite dark.)

FMC that has gone through it and is scared, vulnerable, painfully shy. Books with PTSD representation and a fair amount of trauma healing.

one of the niche i love in romance (especially small town romance) of a new girl in town who moved into a new place out of nowhere, usually to run away from her past, dangerous exes, or generally just to start a new, better life.
