Hi team! Not really sure if this is the right place to ask this, but wondering if there are fellow burgeoning writers who have recommendations for good platforms/tips for starting out as it pertains to writing your own stories. I have so many ideas and feel like it’s time to share, but am a bit intimidated. Would love some tips!

Hi does anyone know Whats going on with her releases. She hasn’t posted anything since 2024. I’ve looked on all socials and there’s nothing recent. Ive been waiting for the second book in a duet that was released in 2023.

So this is absolutely subjective, but there are some writers who really can write hot sex scenes as well as being great storytellers.

I'm in the mood for long, slow and burning hot encounters. There's a time for being railed over the kitchen table but I'm looking for some nice hot build up and satisfying action.

Give me the books that you have to wear the headphones for! They do need to be audible since I can't see to read print books anymore. Which is actually great for this request since there are some voice artists out there that can get your motor running just reading the phone book!

I very much enjoy MM in my RH, so hit me with those as well!

Basically what the title says. Give me all the feels and all the romance. Wooing, Courting, everything.

If it's a series, must be completed. Everything else works

Thanks!

I a kind of tired of the strong independent fighter fmc. I’m looking for a bubble gum princess or Ella woods or a super nerd FMC. someone bubbly or funny or awkward….

Wow I forgot how much I loved the books and now I'm looking for recommendations!

Looking specifically for character depth, nuanced/articulate prose (I am so so so tired of reading books where the main characters' inner monologues sound like teenagers), and of course spice. mmfmm/mfmm/mfmmm. No more than 4 MMCs. Not picky about kinks. Preferably no huge age gap.

Does anybody have any book recs for me? I am looking for the darkest that you can find. My only requests are that they are all female, ADULT and human. I am not interested in creatures, monsters, etc.. but ghost/ demon/ haunted house (i'm spacing what that's called) are ok

I just finished The Masked Masc series by Cirrus Rae. They were ok. I liked Till Death (f/f/f) the best.

I did read and love House of Rayne by Harley Laroux (I know, i know. It's a far cry from what I'm talking about). Is there anything similar (can be poly) ?

I am looking for the darkest smut that you can find. Would appreciate a decent story with it

I have no triggers, nothing off limits. Dub -con, rough, BDSM, violence, stalker/ obsession, kidnapper, chasing/ hunting, all of the weapons play, blood, whatever you can think of

Thank you!

I just need to went about {Triple power play by Jessica Lyn} So i'm at chapter 5 in book 3 and i honestly just don't get the high ratings? The FMCs only character traits are being hot, having a sexy body and anxiety. She is litteraly an empty shell. The MMCs are all really emotionally immature. At least Jackson has an excuse, but they all react with violence and angry outbursts over the smallest things. And where is the plot? Its all just a story about them moving around the country and nothing else? Am i really the only one feeling like this? I see people recommending this book left and right, but i just don't get it 😫

That's all I want.
An RH involving royals
Preferably, the guys are royals (kings/princes) and the girl is not, or she can be a royal too.
Also, preferably, It involves breakup+grovel.

I have read {once upon a time by ari wright} and also {taken by her princes by shona knight}
I loved taken by her princes, tho it was less royal-ish as they spent most of the book travelling

Thank you!!

Goodness! She’s outdone herself. Amazing.
So good!
Can’t write out a whole lot because I’m pressed for time but I’m happy to lay out more and spoilers if requested. But seriously. Download this.

Anyone have any recommendations for books (hopefully WC/RH but willing to accept non-WC/RH) with lactation kink? I’ve read a few monogamous books with it but haven’t encountered it in WC/RH.

It’s a hard kink to find in MF/FF

I would love to read a book that gives me the feeling of reading the twist in The Bonds that Tie when the heroine starts usimg her power, or in All the Pretty Monsters when Violet unleashes Hyde. The awe of the unexpected, the thrill of the character that has restrained themself finally letting loose. There is something about a character that has been playing dumb or weak dropping the mask to show their skill and competence.

I read everythimg and have no triggers. PLEASE RECOMMEND RECOMMEND RECOMMEND. I'm in a slump and want to feel something!!

Ok so I’m reading {Awakened (the last daughter book 2) by Bernadette Blackthorn} and Vaelenor is blaming Daxen for his behavior. Mind you these men are old as fuck! Like he’s too old to play the blame game for shit he did. I just want to strangle his damn neck like you are not a victim tf.

I love RH books (with MM is top tier!). But so much of it is dark or omega. I'm not opposed to either (reading Shattered Omega now!) but I want something lighter with graphic spice.

I've read some Lily Gold, which was good. And Lights, Camera, Knot (Spice>Plot lol)

I want more like this. I love academy (college/uni+), and fantasy, and urban. I need audiobooks (my kindle is full and I struggle to read with my eyes. Too much ADHD/brain fog/mom brain)

Bonus points if it's available other than Audible (Hoopla, Chirp, local libraries)

I'm looking for a fantasy four horsemen RH, and most of the ones I've come across claim to be either pure smut or complains about the MMC being dicks (spoiler - like in four psychos) so asking now: are there any four horsemen with actual good plot? Or something similar to fill my spooky season TBR?

Very short discussion but ever since I read {Blood of The Fairest by Morgan B Lee} I’ve been In one of the biggest slumps!! Great recommendation I wish I could remember where I saw to read it. The story was so good and now I have to wait for the second book after that cliff hanger I just don’t know what to do! Every time I start another novel I wait for that same feeling and it just does not happen. PLEASE HELP!

Randomly found this snd people neeeeeed to read it. Ive never seen it mentioned so I’m gonna put it here

{shadow caster by Debbie Cassidy}

Just finished {Code Vessel by Leann Belle} a sci-fi, lightly Mulan-inspired, RH romance. The world-building was good, the MMCs were actual people with their own goals and insecurities, and there is quite an in-depth exploration of the moral complexities of war and the reasons for wanting to be a soldier for a government you don't necessarily support. Definitely isn't a pro military/pro war book.

Just to warn those with this particular trigger, the government has a forced breeding programme dressed up as a 'Matchmaking service' where women have to be married and trying to get pregnant by 22. Our heroine is escaping this pressure which kicks off the main plot

TL;DR plot: heroine's injured brother is drafted for war, she takes his place to get out of a forced breeding programme, to save him (who never wanted to be a soldier) and a bit because she wants to be a hero. She goes to a military academy disguised as a man and meets the MMCs who are fellow students. It is the first in a series and ends on a sort-of cliffhanger

Too Long plot: The main character is Fianna, a 21 year old medical student who desperately doesn't want to be forced into marriage. Her only family is her older brother Vann, who is also training to be a medic and resents the pressure to join the army, quote from him

"having to murder soldiers from the other side who are no more evil than you are, who have just as many people to go home to, and think their mission is just as noble"

Vann was a great example of a complex character. He hates war, doesn't want to die or kill for a government he resents so think Fianna has it easier, this makes him dismissive of her fears of the forced marriage. I found him annoying but could empathise with his position too

Fianna, desperately doesn't want to get married and be forced to have children, she wants to be a soldier to be a hero who saves people (a bit for her own glory too imo). After an attack on their station, Vann ends up in a coma and gets drafted so Fianna takes his place and fakes her death, solving three problems at once, no more war for Vann, no more marriage for her and a chance for her to be a hero.

I love how they did the disguise in this book, she has a bracelet that can alter how she looks but not how her body feels, so there is still a real risk of people finding out but you don't spend the whole book thinking the MMCs are idiots for not seeing she's a woman

Fianna travels to the military academy where she meets the MMCs, all third-year students. We have Breaker, her assigned mentor, Elio, her room-mate and Sebastien, her eventual squad captain. The MMCs all have distinct personalities, their own point-of-view, their own goals and a pro for me, there isn't the "dumb-one" (sorry himbo lovers).

Predictably, the heroine is really good at fighting but what makes it well thought out is she's terrible at the normal strength based exercises but is good at controlling the Shinkas (basically giants mecha-suits) where it doesn't matter how strong your body is, just your mind.

The majority of the book is her training and interacting with the MMCs, then stuff happens ... but I'll leave it at that to not spoil anything

I read this book (and some of the rest if its series) on KU sometime in the last year or 2. It was a cozy romance omegaverse where the FMC goes to university and meets her pack/mates. I thought it was the Scent Valley University books but its not. There's a lot of similarities though, like omegas living on a gated part of the campus that prohibits alphas and they use golf carts to get around on campus.

What I remember thats different from SVU series is that the FMC used the school's pack matching service to meet packs and eventually finds her scent matched pack...but when she does, she has already fallen for the Beta who the school assigned as her personal body guard on campus. So she insists that the Beta MMC be included in the pack.

I also remember reading at least one other book in the series that was a interconnected standalone where the FMC meets her pack but they already had a bonded omega - I think a male omega - and it was unusual but not impossible that she had scent matched with an already bonded pack, including their omega.

Any ideas? Ive gone back through what I can of my KU history but Amazon makes that so darn hard...

I want a reverse harem book, but I can choose, second person pov,it doesn't have to be adventure, could be anything but i would prefer some action,i only read my lady's choosing , it's not reverse harem but it's romance and I get to choose anyone,so if you have any similar stuff even if it's not reverse harem ,fanfiction also fine with me as long as I get to choose and it's in second person pov ,thank you.

Why is almost every series 5-7 books these days?

Normally I am with it until book 4 and then I start to get burnt out, like please wrap it up already. That's where I tend to see the most issues with pacing start to crop up, and then I am dragging myself to the end.

I may have also made the mistake of trying to get over my slump causes by Beasts of the Briar with Ironwood Academy, and while the later isn't as bad, I am still feeling the fatigue halfway through Relever.

Does anyone know of any completed trilogies that stick the landing? Ones that have character development for everyone involved? I am ok with most tropes but cheating is a hard no. Definitely MM ok as well, I just need strong characters and pacing that feels planned in advance.
