Guys I desperately am in need of recommendations for dark romance books! I just downloaded Amazon Kindle the other night and am trying to throw myself back into my bookworm era! - Xoxo, Amira

made series
butcher and blackbird

Never After series by Emily Mcintire
All Souls Trilogy by Harley Laroux

I am currently reading hooked by Emily McIntire that is a fractured reconstruction of the story Peter Pan. It is a dark Romance. I am currently on chapter 10 and loving the MMC and how dark he is.

Oh my God I loved that book. I really hope you enjoy the whole book and try out the rest of the series

I recommend you read God of war by Rina kent. It’s a dark romance with a lot of spice.

The Edge of Darkness Trilogy by Leigh Rivers. I dislike series where there is more than one book requiring a long term commitment. But this here was gold. I highly recommend.

I'd recommend the Mindf**k series for its perfect blend of interesting dark romance and thriller. Since it's short, there won't be any reader's block.

Hi, I'd like to recommend The Realm:Mirage not completely dark, but it has darkness to it, a new historic romance with a hint of fantasy.

omg I just finished God of malice!!!!!!!

I recommend anything written by Cora Reilly, A.Zavarelli, Natasha Knight, Rina Kent, Lylah James, Michelle Heard, Jagger Cole, and Luna Mason for dark romances <3

(it's ordered from least to most spicy but they all kinda smutty)
- Find Me (WITSEC series) by Ashley N. Rostek
- Mindf*ck series by S.T. Abby
- Once You're Mine (duology) by Morgan Bridges
- Corrupt by (Tetralogy) Penelope Douglas
- God of Malice by Rina Kent

- Lights Out by Navessa Allen
- Mindf*ck series by S.T. Abby
- Butcher & Blackbird (but only that book) by Brynne Weaver

i highly recommend 'pretty monster' by sheridan anne

I'm currently reading Credence by Penelope Douglas.
I also highly recommend all of Rina Kent's books, especially the Vow of Deception trilogy.

The Coven series by Harper L. Woods

I will recommend an old book, but it's my all-time favorite. Captive in the Dark by C. J Roberts.

It's not very dark but good for a beginner (if you are one): Twisted Love by Ana Huang

Have you read The Kiss of the Basilisk?

Cora Reilly Universe!!

Hey, I have put my heart and soul into writing this book- She who painted her own Universe. I am a big fan of Romantasy and fantasy fiction, and I tried to create a perfect blend of ACOTAR, Divergent, shadow hunters, etc. The e-book version is finally out, so if this sounds something like you- please do give it a read🥀 She who painted her own Universe

I LIVE & BREATH dark romance 🖤 here are some of my favorites:

Hans or Dom from the Alliance series by S.J.Tilly (plus size dark mafia romance)
Perfectly Imperfect series by Neva Altaj
Zoe Blake's Sweet Obsession series (dark mafia romance but read the tw)
Brutal Vows by J.T Geissinger (mafia romance)
The Maddest Obsession by Danielle Lori
The Finisher by Runyx
Secret Obsession by S. Massery (dark hockey romance)
The Wrong Pucking Number (dark hockey romance)
Gothikana by Runyx

I can always recommend the ‘Never After Series’ by Emily McIntire, it’s amazing for beginners who want to slowly get into the dark romance genre. I can also really recommend ‘Lights Out’ by Navessa Allen, it’s dark romance mixed with a lot of comedy, it’s very funny. My last recommendation is not for everyone and probably not known for beginners but I really enjoyed the ‘Cat and Mouse Duet’ by H.D. Carlton (Haunting Adeline & Hunting Adeline). 💗

Dark Verse series by RuNyx, the first two books were five stars for me

I loved the Legacy of gods series by Rina Kent

I just finished Sicko by Amo Jones and really enjoyed it. A bit of a mindfuck but entertaining

I hope self rec is ok, but... Escape from Media is a Dystopian Fantasy Romance with 4.8 on over 200 reviews. A single mother, her daughter, and a smuggler with a haunted past must escape the city before they are found. My book 2 is coming out in September (ARCs open in Aug). It is stand alone, but references past items in book1 as history. #ad https://amzn.to/3ZPSxZl

the hollow boys by monty jay
