Book Attic

Books where the story is brought to another level by the character work, be it in the complex character building or the multi layered character arc. The writer made the characters like facets, every angle and every relation gives them yet another aspect to further deepen the dynamic between characters. Every bit of past revealed shows us the way they became who they are now. Leaving us with characters arcs that feel like an entire story on their own, and often impacts the romance.

Books that have all kinds of fucking. We don’t discriminate the kind of fucking, what is being fucked, or who’s fucking, we just enjoy a good time.

When you love a villian more than a hero

Books where love isn’t safe, simple, or pure—but it is consuming.

Here's a list of dark romance books! It includes mafia romances, to, what I'd consider, just dark romance! It includes all books I've read (whether it's a dnf or a reread) and some that have been on my tbr for some time but seem good! Ps: I won't recommend books that portray themselves as dark romance in excuse to write/romanticise sexual violence or rape, that isn't dark romance, just authors that want an excuse to being weird.

Here's are mafia romance books I highly need you to read if you're into unhinged, morally grey mmcs that literally burns the world for you ✨

Who run the world? That's right, girls can fight too! So I hope you finds these books with strong fmcs you'll enjoy them
