Recs if you like Caught Up...

romance books with particular interest in the MC saying iterations of “good girl” (kneeling is encouraged) - praise kink is explored in some titles.

these characters want to please their love interests by listening and following instructions. best paired with a good girl doing 𝒷𝒶𝒹 things.

this list is for those that were A+, teachers pet students and are now adults that want to be told they are doing a good job in the bedroom ⭐️ this list is NOT in reference to animals

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.

there is a sea of audiobook narrators and I know we all have our favorites. I'm starting a series of lists featuring both popular and underrated narrators. consider this the first of many.

let's kick things off with Teddy Hamilton. he does everything romance related, mm romance, shifter romance, alien romance, and more. I tried not to include audible exclusives so that anyone without access to audible can find something from this list.

as always, taking suggestions!!

swallow his kids, or whatever 🤧 spunk, seed, semen, nut, cum, load, jizz, cream, ejaculate—whatever you call it, just ensure you swallow, dont spit. no further notes 🤭

When books turn knotty naughty and one of the characters gets tied up. 🤭😏 ‘Cause I might be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it… 🎶 Nothing like some bondage scene to spice things up. From shibari to handcuffs, from tentacles to cowboys who really know how to use a lasso, and wether the FMC or MMC is the one restrained, there is a little bit of everything in here.

I haven’t read every book here, so please correct me if I am wrong somewhere. Suggestions are always very welcum 💦

the ultimate guide to dark romance and plot twists (/secret guide to being freaky sl*ts in bed (and out of it🙂‍↔️) for hot men and women)

dark romance, thrillers, mystery, secret societ, military, plot twists, touch her and d!e, badass mmc and fmc

A list of ”diet dark” books / dark rom-coms! I’m currently obsessed with these types of books!!!

these MCs have trauma they need to work through: parental neglect, absent father, loss of a parent, emotional / physical / psychological ab*se, divorce. this list may be books that you want to read or those that you want to avoid - whichever applies to you, its here nonetheless. bonus points if the MCs partner/s help them work through their trauma.

🚨 please check your triggers 🚨

For those who read the knife handle scene in Lights Out and went "why do I wanna try it?"

where each narrator voices their own character(s) throughout the entire book, not just when it’s ‘their’ chapter

Want to start reading dark romance but unsure which book to start? These are good starters before diving into more darker themes!

Please note that dark romance isn’t for everyone, and always make sure to check the trigger warnings beforehand ❤️ Your mental health matters!

🖤 Books with at least a few or many trigger warnings 💦 Spice rating of 5+ 🥀 Fucked up but hot main characters.

If you started with wattpad/fanfic reads this list is for you, the plot is not fantastic but the main character has a grip on you and you just want to see where it goes!

🖤 We listen but we don't judge 🖤

A small selection of the over 2000+ banned books recently brought to the attention of Texas' Lt. Gov and a conservative organization for their for "vulgar" material 🙄 including topics of history, race, LGBTQ+, gender identity, feminism, mental health, and sex education as well as romance, horror, science fiction, memoirs, YA, and classic genres. Aka my new reading list 💅 **Includes all the books I've read/on my TBR and other popular books, comment others if you want!!

Books that really should be read via audiobook instead of physical/digital copy. Production, narrator, experience all top tier. Memoirs narrated by the authors.

Book Attic

Books that either filtered to me directly from or have strong associations with booktok. A lot of dark romance, a lot of smut, some things I would (lovingly) consider "trashy".

This is where it gets dark, depraved, and oh so delicious!
