the ultimate guide to dark romance | must read dark romance books 🖤🥀

Beautiful Fiend and Heartless Beloved are the first two books. These are obsessed with these books. Love them so much.

What you would read third is Reena Kent's best work and I Will Die on that hill. This is the monster trilogy.

So Broken Whispers. Okay, this is book two. I loved this. This was Single Daddy in the Mafia.

Okay, last but not least, another standalone that I have to mention that's also it's this is so spicy and usually I don't like that like you got to be in the mood for it. This is an ovulation book for sure, but it's also traumatizing. This is Dark Notes by Pam Godwin.

And then, Delightful Sins was okay. The reason why it wasn't my favorite is because this is MFM. It's a throppple. It's a throppple, and throppples aren't my favorite.

And then book six, my second favorite, Fractured Souls. This made me cry. I was not expecting this series to ever make me cry, but this one hurt me.

Oh my god, this book is so good. It's so heartbreaking. I sobbed my eyes out.

First book, God of Malice. Five stars. This is my second favorite book in the series.

Then we have God of Pain. Some people don't like this one. Obsessed. This is my third favorite. I think I gave this four and a half stars.

Then we have God of Ruin, okay, which follows Landon and Mia. I love Mia. Their dynamic is hilarious to me.

Then the last book is God of War. This isn't everyone's favorite, but I absolutely devoured it.

Then we have my favorite book in the series, God of Wrath. Jeremy Vulov. This introduced me to my obsession with stalkers.

And I loved Heartless Beloved even more. This follows Alexandra and Z. And Z could quite literally do anything to me.

One of my favorite trilogies ever. This sticks with me. This traumatized me. This ruined my life.

Isle of Sin and Shadows. Okay, this had me like scared. Like I was like looking around like I was like is something going to pop out at me?

And then Gareth, who's in Kiss the Villain, is another heathen, but I'm not including Kiss the Villain cuz I didn't like that.

Lawless God, I did not like. I did not like it at all.

I did read both of those and they were entertaining. Like, I think I gave them each three stars, but like they're well, one they're definitely more for they're very dark and crazy and insane, but I didn't include them in this book just because they were they were fine.

Second Chance, like heartbreaking. This is why I love Second Chance when it's done, right? The pain, the angst, the longing, them wanting so bad to be together and everything keeping them apart.

She's seeing ghosts. This is so good.

But first, I'm going to mention one of my favorite books of all time. This is Nocticadia.

This is a tragedy. This does not have a happily ever after. This ruined me in so many ways, but it was so good.

The Predator and the Reaper are books one and two, and they follow Tristan and Mirana. They are my favorite couple in the series.

Okay, the first book, Sinners Anonymous. This is slowburn. All these are super slowburn. Like the tension, don't get me started.

Then the next two books are a duet. And these are just even better. Both five stars. Okay. Sinners condemned and sinners consume. follow Wraith and Penny.

This broke me. This made me cry. This made me sobb.

And this was my introduction to single daddies in the mafia. Yeah, I'll say that again. A mafia single daddy. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know where that trope was all my life. I didn't know it existed. That's everything I needed.

And then the syndicator. I loved it. It had its flaws. Did I want more from this final book? Absolutely.

Then books three and four are a duet. Okay. The Blood We Crave. This follows the same couple. And this follows Laya and Thatcher. and Laya, she's the stalker.

Then The Darkest Temptation. Definitely the darkest out of the three. This is also great for beginners.

Then we have The Fabric of Our Souls. This will make you so. This will make you cry like a baby. This is so heavy.

King is book two. Did not like it at all.

This was like three and a half stars for me. This was average. This was a good silly fun time.

Then we have one of my favorite mafia books ever, The Mattis Obsession. My favorite in this series. This is everything to me.

Okay, this follows Silas, the one whose girlfriend was murdered and everyone thinks that he is schizophrenic. So, being in his head is also very interesting.

The first book, The Sweetest Oblivion, follows Nico and Elena arrange marriage, forbidden romance, forced proximity, Italian mafia.

Then book two is my favorite book in the series. Another five-star Roman Empire. Okay, this follows Rook and Sage. This is The Truce We Burn. This is so good.

Now, both of these together solid four stars. This isn't my favorite duet ever, but I still think it's a good fun time and worth the read and I would definitely recommend it. We have Throne of Power and Throne of Vengeance.

I also read Twisted Bonds, which I don't own. Twisted Emotions, and Twisted Bonds is the second book for this couple. Okay, so they have two books.

Twisted Emotions, five stars. This is everything to me.

Then Twisted Pride follows Nino's brother, Remo. And I'm still a Nino girly. I am, but Remo is just so unhinged in a completely different way. Oh my god.

And it follows Rook and Sage's daughter. Yeah, this was so good. Forbidden Romance, okay, he's her foster brother.
