Recs if you like Vicious...

Disclaimer: I don't wish to bring hate to any authors, I deeply believe in democracy. However I think it's important for people who hold themselves accountable for their reading choices to have access to the information about authors/books they give their time and money to. These are authors who have publicly supported Israel or middle road. If you notice someone who may have changed their stance recently or supported Palestine and are here wrongfully please do correct me

diamonds? never heard of her. these books feature all things hand(s) on neck romance—choking, breath play, asserting dominance—all in the name of pleasure !

your neck 🤝 their hand(s)

Fueled by arguments, eye-rolls, and "I can't stand you" energy. You know how this ends...

oops! we broke the bed! - probably the characters in the books on this list

books where they break the bed 😈

(Billionaire) MMC who are down bad and want their pockets to hurt and the FMC who have no problem doing it!

Open for more suggestions 🤗

These romances are a love letter in more ways then one...

Need dark romance recs? 🖤🔥

Obsessive love. Toxic tension. Betrayal that tastes like devotion.

Enemies who touch like lovers. Soulmates who destroy.

Slow burns that scorch. Fast flames that consume.

If you want romance that hurts so good…
We got you 🫶🏻

*** Only the first book of the series have been added ***

When you love a villian more than a hero

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! 😉

can’t read these in public

Heartbreak, miscommunication, trauma, and love that hurts before it heals. Perfect for readers who enjoy pain — but the kind that’s worth it.
