rise & grind
romance books featuring scenes of dry humping / grinding / frottage ⛓️ if you thought this list has anything to do with coffee or getting money, i apologise (kinda)
dry humping as foreplay can be hotter than penetration and these MCs live up to it. bonus points if they get caught or have to stop before things go further 🎠 so, jump on and take a (dry) ride, things are about to heat up (and possibly get wet)






when the “fuck it” moment hits just right
yearning for so long that the MC finally snaps and has a fuck it moment. this hits the best when the relationship is taboo and they KNOW its wrong but give in anyway 🫨
fuck it and then fuck each other 🤷






no consequence cream pies
listen, theres just something about breeding kink / cum play that makes me ✨ feral ✨ and especially romance books with NO pregnancy—yay for birth control!! more authors should include this in their books.
fill ‘em up ⛽️






we found arousal in an inconvenient place
for when you need to juggle acting normal, giving in to your bodys reaction, and not giving yourself away 😈
getting a boner in a public space just at the thought of someone, unexpected sexy time at a restaurant, public remote play, getting aroused when you know its wrong, a brush of a hand or a butt and oops! im horny: all of these plus more!
the aim of the game is dont let anyone ✨know✨






couples with a licence to bang
hey google, play sports car by tate mcrae 🏎️ theres just something about the risk of exhibitionism and contorting bodies in a confined space with rapidly decreasing oxygen 🥵
from secret hookups in a parking lot to saying fuck it cause you cant wait to make it to a bedroom, these romance books all feature explicit car scenes 🏁
theyll drive stick while you ride the stick🚦






who did this to you | who hurt you
tortured/traumatised MCs where the love interest endeavours to eliminate the root cause of their trauma by any means necessary (some may eventuate in death) ⚔️ protective mode, activated ⚔️

shirtless men
Save a shirtless, bare-chested man! Each one is in dire need of a shirt! 👕 Those covers of romance novels are not very warm, although under the covers, it could be hot. Steaming, in fact. Maybe even scorching. 🥵❤️🔥
(Other editions exist where the book cover has a shirtless man, but this list only includes those shirtless on PB. ) Enjoy! 😉






Dry Humping Is Underrated
Romance novels with dry humping. Enough said. 😅






Fat Babes Spicy Romance
Fat FMCs and the partners that worship them (Please comment with suggestions!!!)






obsessed MMC x unbothered FMC
i'm tired of nonchalant, cold MMC with the FMC embarrassing themselves for their attention. so here's some that goes the opposite way; obsessed MMC that are almost pathetic with it, and FMC who's unbothered of it all (of course she reciprocate but ykwim)






Say My Name
MMCs (usually starchy nobles) who love hearing their monikers from the FMC sweet lips

Reddit made me read 'Against a Wall' and now I am obsessed.
