Recs if you like Releasing 10...

tortured/traumatised MCs where the love interest endeavours to eliminate the root cause of their trauma by any means necessary (some may eventuate in death) ⚔️ protective mode, activated ⚔️

⚠️ CHECK YOUR TRIGGERS

Unhinged men, complicated power dynamics, and love that feels dangerous but irresistible. These stories are messy, intense, and emotionally consuming — not for the faint-hearted, but impossible to stop reading. Enter only if you like your romance dark, addictive, and a little bit feral.
