Recs if you like Asking for It (Asking for It, #1)...

romance books with free use / CNC scenes inspired by @PowahWom

essentially, the MC is giving up their body to be used for sex at the whim of the other person(s). free use can occur without consent but have tried my best to include majority of titles with explicit consent planned before or during the activities.

in the words of Shakira, “Whenever, wherever”

Sixty-nine (that’s right, 69, by pure unplanned luck!) recommendations for you — everything from bonkers to bloody to blazing hot…naughty bits that we believe deliver the whole banana (and sometimes no banana at all, if you know what we mean). If you're looking for something specific (or trying to avoid it), you can find this list with subcategories on our site.

Student X Professor. Romances with one of the two characters being a professor. Forbidden(ish) romances.

Open for recommendations ^^

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.

Romances where the FMC has been victim of SA and is now healing and learning how to trust again or is assaulted 🍇 in the book itself and the after is part of the plot as well.

(Added some content to the recs in the comments. Please do your own research into the potential triggers as well before diving into any of these as some are quite dark.)
