These men sure like to keep a souvenir 🩲😏
Books where an MMC steals the underwear of his obsession 👀 Are they merely a trophy? Or does he use them for ✨solo-adventures✨? Does he do it secretly or does he tease his partner with it? Time shall tell…
Seriously? In THIS economy?! I know, I know, but who can resist a man who is that down bad 🤭😏 (also he better buy new panties after)
I haven’t read every single book on this list yet, so please correct me if I am wrong somewhere. As always, book recs are always very welcum 💦😈

Dark Romance






second chance romance; bcs we love ⋆˚౨ pain ৎ ⋆.˚
one of the trope that can be so good when done so right because the pining? the angst? the heartbreak? the groveling? chef's kiss!






Emotional Trainwrecks 😭🚂
Books that (if you have functioning tear ducts) leave you crying. Stories that feel hopeless and dark.
Warning; not all have a HEA (and there's one non-romance, My Dark Vanessa).






Books That Made Me Cry (Bring Your Tissues)
The heartbreak. The longing. The emotional punches I was not prepared for. These books didn’t just make me tear up; they stayed with me, lingering in that quiet space after the final chapter. Soft souls, proceed carefully.
