*cock pocket dimension

this list features a special kind of monster genitalia: the cock pocket! you may be asking yourself what a cock pocket is. well, look no further: a cock pocket holds and hides genitalia.

this list is full of green monsters to help create a complete and nutritious meal

adult genre romance stories where at least one main character is trans and/or non-binary! i haven’t necessarily read or recommend all the books included here; please lmk if anything is incorrect. Also this list is white and transmasc leaning so def please leave any recs in the comments! i’ve mainly excluded erotica, as my goal for this list is genre romance, but most books listed do contain sexual scenes (varying levels of explicitness)

Why settle when you can have a monster obsessed with you.

Monster, Mermen, Alien, Entity, Demons, Vampires, Wolf, Orc, ect.

Horror, Fantasy, Romance, and Smut.

Straight & queer

Standalone & series Only first books in series were added because why would you read a second book if you didn't like the first.

Novels, novellas, and short stories (and the occasional comic) featuring trans characters (including non-binary and all terms under the umbrella), written by indie authors. All genres, but many lean erotic and/or horror 🔞

My favorite trans romances. Notes: Trans used as the umbrella term. My reading has been severely lacking in MTF romance and I am correcting that! Will be updating this list regularly 💜
