Recs if you like Enigma...

Nothing better than a quick standalone romance between something long and serious 😏 In other words, if you’re already committed to six series but still need more excitement in your life 🤭

If you simply prefer to spend every night with another magical being that’s perfectly fine too 🤭💖

Romantasy standalones from YA to Dark Romance

Kinda spooky, probably dark and super atmospheric. May include: lady knights, academia settings, broody MMCs, haunted castles/manors, candelabras or gargoyles (BARTHOLOMEW!!)

Dark, spooky romances

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.
