By that I mean does the Romance between Fred and His Gf progress throughout the story?

No Cheating/Rape(Mind Control or otherwise involving FMC) happens?

Does he Gets a HEA?(For romance)

I am also planning to read Superpowereds by the the Author. But I heard it has less romance and is Multi PoV.

Brand-Bound Volume 1 is out for preorder now~ it's a LitRPG with a romance focus! Releasing September 23rd!

Rank. Class. Purpose.

All of creation must be bound to the divine System Interface. So decrees the Church of the Most Holy Menu.

A stench of heresy wafts over the pilgrimage stations! Thieving apostate Jelena is hunting for holy relics to pawn off, even prying them right from the hands of murdered priests. Calaf of Riverglen, sewer-grate sentry and aspiring Paladin, vows to bring the heretic to justice for the good of all faithful. Armed with an inherited, holy Brand, our hero shall rise in level and rank under the rigid structure of the Church of the Menu and its sacred System. 

Calaf pursues his quarry through hot spring groves, forests, and dungeons. As he learns more about this relic thief's past, the pair unexpectedly find themselves fighting together through rebellion, inquisition, and a rising tide of rotting undead menace.

The hero's faith in the Holy Menu is unshakable, while the villainess lost all faith long ago. Who will warm up to the other first? Can Calaf fix her? Or will Jelena make him so much worse?

Strictly between you and me, R4M subreddit? I kind of based the main pair off of Jane Doe and Seth from Zenless Zone Zero. Especially later on. (Also more than a bit of Trailblazer X Kafka from Honkai: Star Rail, but I'm specifically saving the breathy destiny talk from that GOATed relationship dynamic for the next LitRPG actually)

Special thanks to my editor at JD Book Services as well as GetCovers.com.

So there you have it. Good boy x Femme Fatale enemies-to-lovers slowburn. Maybe it'll even do well enough to warrant an audiobook~ Who knows?

Mundane as in set in the real world with no supernatural or sci-fi elements. It's extremely common in both conventional RFW and Japanese male-oriented romance media, but it seems like everything like that I see advertised on this sub is harem, and even that's rare.

Just finished it. Read two thirds last night and the last third after sitting down for a couple hours after weekend house cleaning.

TLDR no spoiler : It is a solid romance novel with a cute couple and surprisingly nuanced characters.

SPOILER warning from here!

Actual review: I really liked it. I was hoping for a cute couple romance and i got it, but what i really got from this book was two things.

1.THE ADVENTURE. This is a romance novel first and an adventure novel second but because I was invested in the characters, I got scared for them during the surprisingly intense action scenes and horror scene. The book starts with a fairly 'slice of life' tone but shifts into a more dark/intense one.

Right until the very end I was worried it might be a tragic romance with one of them dying. Which is quite rare for one of these books to have maintained stakes. Normally when a dangerous monster or villain is introduced in a rfm book I roll my eyes at the idea the op wish fulfilment pro-tag is gonna die, but not here and that was refreshing and cool.

1. THE CHARACTERS. While conceptually simple Ara and Nox were refreshingly nuanced and self aware.

Nox first, he is on the surface a standard introvert coming out of his shell. But i liked how we saw a flash of his inner resentment at the start. But he saw it too! And I also liked that near the start of the romance he stopped himself and took stock of it, asking himself "do i love her?" "what would our relationship look like if we did have one?" "is infatuation enough?" "would her anger issues and stubbornness be a problem?" This sort of taking stock/ruminating is very realistic and refreshing in this genre.

Ara, on the surface is a stubborn/angry character who needs to address those issues. But I love how self aware she is. Her getting caught up on a minor issue and letting drag her down only to realise how minor it all is, (her worries over how their relationship will be perceived by others) was very relatable to me. And from a writing perspective it's great to see flawed characters in a genre that often smooth overs its characters.

The two together, I loved that they were willing to criticise one another, Ara pointing out that Nox contributed to his isolation with his standoffishness was great, one of the things about relationships is trying to better yourself and helping them better themselves or avoid developing bad habits.

Any downsides with this book? One! The supporting cast was very weak, either underdeveloped or out of focus(Ara's dad) they were pretty much npc's.

To summarise: I greatly enjoyed this book. Having dabbled in Misty's works (the first goblin book was ok but not my thing) (the amazonian book was good but the age gap a bit much 14 years. 10 is my limit)

I will look into her cosy writer / roommate romance books people recommend. And I will look forward to her future works.

A STONE AGE LOVE STORY.

Ara is a huntress, a warrior. Descended from another tribe of ruthless brutes, she towers over everyone in the region and can take on anyone with raw strength alone. The daughter of her tribe's Chieftain and destined to one day assume his mantle, the responsibility she shoulders is immense. From learning how to lead, to protecting the tribe with her great prowess, to finding the right mate.

That last one is an obligation that weighs heavily on her as she enters her twenty fourth summer. Her immense stature and short temper have made it difficult to find a mate she can tolerate, let alone one she wants. And time is running out to choose...

Nex is a magical healer. Scrawny, shorter than most of the other men in his tribe, he wears the burden of being a powerful magic user. Stigmatized, he lives alone in the healer's cave at the edge of his village and spends most of his time in isolation. Finding a mate is difficult at the best of times, but for him? He is beginning to wonder if his tribe's Chieftain will be forced to pair him with someone.

Nex and Ara find themselves thrust together on a sudden journey when the location of a lost magical relic is discovered. As they travel the land and get to know each other, an unlikely yet impassioned relationship begins to form...

PRIMAL LOVE is a Monogamous Romance For Men. This novel includes stone age survival, fights to the death, passionate sex scenes, and a sweet, loving romance between a badass warrior woman and an awkward healer.

Memories bleed. Secrets kill.

The ink on Roland Halloway’s P.I. license is barely dry when blue crystals and murdered bodies collide with his own fractured war memories. The perpetual twilight city of Ebonreach, where memory rain falls and magitech shields fail, conceals darker secrets than even a whiskey-numb veteran can fathom.

He’s not on the case alone, though. With the alluring wood elf Amoretta wielding forbidden memory magic and a seductive succubus nightclub singer pulling deadly strings, Roland races through neon-soaked back alleys and shadowy underground tunnels in search of answers. Malicious tech, corrupt officials, and prophetic sketches forecasting his own death won’t put a stop to this investigation—but the truth about what he did during the war just might.

In this gritty noir fantasy thriller, the drinks are stronger than the ogres, and the past is more painful than any bullet.

Welcome to Ebonreach, where forgetting is the kindest mercy.

So im looking for a more erotica style book. There are so many but I really am looking for an audio book above all else. I like slow burn but often like a little more action. Any recommendations would be nice. Im still a little new to the subreddit so if there as easier way to ask/search for what im wanting then please tell me.

Like the title says, I’m looking for books where the MMC and FMC fight, at least once preferably more, beyond that I’m not picky.

Need Some Novels with Any of these types of Protagonists.

Antihero Or Morally Grey Protagonist Would be Fine too

For Example: Miles From Saving Supervillains.

Does anyone know any good arranged marriage romance books (non harem)?

The gate is wide open on this one. I'd be willing to try any kind of FMC who can't be called "quirky," "kooky," or a "manic pixie dream girl." If anyone is in need of rescue, it's her. Here are some ideas of what I'm looking for, but not an exhaustive list:

• A basement dwelling NEET woman who is addicted to online gaming and energy drinks

• The weird, pale girl from any horror story who is either at the heart of the issue or the harbinger of things to come (but aged up to where it's not weird for her to be a romantic interest)

• A monster girl, but one that is really a "monster" and has to hide from everyone and even the MMC for a good while. I'd like him to actually be scared or horrified at first if that's the case, and not have him be shocked for two seconds and then horny

• Someone actively stalking or hunting the MMC with romantic interest, but it comes off as scary. I would love a gender swapped and romantic version of Dracula or Phantom of the Opera

• Basically any FMC who, if she had female friends, would elicit a response of "Damn girl, you live like this?" on the regular

I think Virgil Knightley's Midnight Nanny comes closest to this so far, though the MMC was a little too into her Tsundere routine for it to really "work" imo. I also picked up Fangs and First Dates with high hopes but the writing was too flat for my tastes.

Any other recs? Thanks!

Scarred by his service in the Civil War, Jasper Chambers just wants to quietly enjoy what remains of his life. When he sat down for breakfast he didn’t expect to be roped into chasing after thieves. He didn’t expect to ride out across the desert in the company of the beautiful and assertive Molly Potter, and he didn’t expect to confront his past.

Now Jasper has to face the danger of incoming fire and the advances of a woman who may leave him for dead in the dust. If he rides through, there is the promise of something more than he could dream on the other side. That is, if he doesn’t misread the trail, die of thirst, or eat a bullet.

Saddle up for this Romantic Western and take a Desert Ride. Bandits, shoot-outs, horse chases, and starlight snuggles included.

This novella is a deviation from my usual writing genre (magical realism) but it still has the same depth of character that is a Sam Hertz story. I hope you all enjoy it. If you do, I'm currently working on another and may bump it up in my project priorities.

Romance: 3 - Co-plot

Sex: 3 - Light Steam

Working on my first RFM and having this question. It is better to have shorter books within a long series (each book being an plot arc) or its better to have a shorter series with a overarching trilogy or smth?

I know isnt a rule but is nice to hear something from you guys

Check it out!

In a future of neon and acid rain, humans and synths live side by side after the discovery of Artificial Intelligence nearly led to a global war. Now, the truce holds and society trundles onward.

Carter is a technician whose specialty is synth repair. Working in the Defense Network Headquarters means he gets to see a lot of unique repair jobs on the combat synths who work to keep the world safe. In their own way, they're all interesting, but he finds that he has built a true friendship with only one of them: Crystal.

Except, one night as he works to repair her body, he learns that Crystal wishes to take their relationship to the next level...

Not sure if this even exists, but curious if there are any mono romance books out there written by harem authors. I LOVE the powerful mcs and amazing LIs you come across in harem literature, but sometimes I like the focus on just one girl. Anything like that out there?

(Outside of the to loves monster girl stuff, just not my jam personally)

I'm back with the sixth book in my ongoing space opera harem series with fast paced actions, alien beauties and slice of life guaranteed to raise your blood sugar! Read more below:

The Cannidor are a force few dare challenge. A people of immensity in every facet of life. Immense size, immense appetites, and immense passions. Feared, if not respected, the galaxy over for their natural strength and prowess. Feared too for the power armored might of the legendary Cannidor Shock Troopers, the elite of the Cannidor's warrior society.

The Human men and women of the Undaunted have found friends, comrades and lovers among the Cannidor people with an ease seldom seen outside the Cannidor themselves, forging tight bonds with lone warriors, mercenaries and independent clans across the galaxy.

Now, a powerful Cannidor Khan extends an unprecedented offer: a lasting alliance between their people and humanity. It’s a political gamble with the fate of an entire star system and Humanity's future among the stars hanging in the balance.

Admiral Jerry Bridger and the crew of the Crimson Tear must navigate a labyrinth of Cannidor tradition, rival factions, and hidden agendas, all while an unseen threat prepares to strike at their most vulnerable moment. The path to unity demands more than diplomacy—if the Bridgers want to join the Undaunted blue and gold with Cannidor Crimson, it will require risk, resolve, and the will to defy the odds.

In Cannidor space, strength earns respect—but only courage can forge a future.

Hello there!

I've only just recently found this community and I'm eager to learn what kind of recommendations you all could give me. I'm a huge sucker for anything romance and I've already consumed tons of fanfiction in the various fandoms I'm active in. I've recently been 'addicted' to monster girls and/or anthro girls and I was wondering if such books exist as well.

I mainly prefer slow burn romances with really good fleshed out characters. The fluffier and cute the romance, the better! I also have no issue with smut as long as it is done tasteful. Meaning: it is build towards it, not just jumping in bed after having met each other for like 5 minutes. The same goes for harems. I'm fine with them as long as everything is build up sufficiently.

With all of this, I humbly and kindly ask you all to send in all your recommendations (and where I can acquire them)!

Thanks in advance!
