can someone recommend me a good dark romance book!!

I really enjoyed the Legacy of Gods series by Rina Kent and Crooked Sinners by Callie Hart.

I second the legacy of gods. It was amazing! I also really enjoyed Playing with Fire. If you’re wanting a fantasy one The Coven trilogy is a good one (the third book comes out 10/7/25)

The fabric of our souls ✨

lights out! <3

The Lies we whisper by Sophia Zane and then Beyond the Truth, I just finished the laters ARC both are amazing

If you're looking for super dark books then read books by veronica lancet, pam godwin, Leigh rivers, H D Carlton, lola king and shantel tessier.

Lighter dark romance - books by cora reilly, rina kent, faith summers, Michelle heard, Lilian harris.

Dark rom com books - Rook and rebel, butcher and blackbird, light out and caught up.

Can someone recommend a contemporary novel or author who writes cosmic horror. I have already checked out Thomas Ligotti, however most of his efforts are short fiction.

NAMUH Book 1: The Awakening
Set on a near-future Earth teetering on collapse from climate chaos and social unrest, NAMUH fuses mysticism, quantum theory, and high-stakes rebellion into a story that doesn’t just entertain — it initiates.

My favorite dark romance right now is Den of Vipers by K. A. Knight! It's also why choose if you're into that.

I need a good summer book read, I'm going to Fiji and need a new book

It's new, and definitely worth the read.

girl add me!!! i have so many good recs on my profile

Filthy Rich Temptation by Rachael Stewart is EVERYTHING!! Forbidden billionaire + best friend’s little sister + forced proximity!!! The tension is off the charts 🔥😭 If you love Ana Huang or TL Swan, this will ruin you (in the best way).

Hazelthorn (don't think it's out yet but probably fits what you are looking for)

Beautiful Venom by Rina Kent is a mild level of dark, and I loved it! Also, anything by Rina Kent.

Why choose - Anything by Tate James

Dark Romance - anything by Penelope Douglas and the others mentioned in this post, as well as anything by JA Huss, she also write sci-fi under a different pen name but I don’t know what it is off hand but it’s on her website.

Contemporary Romance - Red Stilletto Book club series, anything by Penelope Ward or Vi Kneeland or co-written together. I have also just finished 2 book by Aaron McLean and wow! That dude can write romance!!!!

Fantasy - Zodiac Academy! So good!

I can recommend this book+ journal
