This eco-fantasy romance novella was a wild read. Mycological sex spores + fuckable mushrooms that are proxies for a faun king’s equipment. With academic cheekiness, thoughtful alliteration, & it romanticizes brown eyes! A fun, bold read. #monsterromance #fantasyromance

Book cover for Wiled In The Woods by Ginger Kane. A forest with the silhouette of a woman in the background and faun leaning against a tree while playing his flute in the foreground.

Sapphic, second chance #alienromance novella. Royal daughters of opposing species fall in love & broker peace once each becomes queen. Interesting world building. One MC has tentacles so can’t go wrong there. The other is a prodigy with a blade. Definitely worth a read. #monsterromance

Alien romance cover titled The Two Queens of Firixina by Dalia Davies. Mirrored image of a single woman, one in shadow with tentacles—a hint at the special abilities of one of the alien queens.

A fantastic historical #fantasyromance / #monsterromance novella I read recently: Devoured by Ava Thorne. It’s a female rage premise so it begins rather dark and parallels man’s abuse of nature and woman. So good. The MMC is a spidery monster she seeks out for revenge assistance. #booksky

A snake winding through the book cover’s title with night blooming moonflowers all around.

After an author denigrated a SW I made a list of Romance books I’ve enjoyed that feature a sex worker MC as one of the love interests. These all happen to be alien & scifi as it shows up more often here. #alienromance #scifiromance #romancerecs #erotica

Romance book recs with a sex worker main character love interest. Includes him, her, and non-binary. The job is for fun, pays the bills, or because they’re a captive or it’s compulsory.

Finished a fantastic vampire novella: Taste, Nikki Clarke. How they came to be is tragic but inventive. Hard to talk specifics w/o giving away plot but him finally being able to court her + the reveal of where he’s been is so intimate & lovely. Absolutely enchanted. #indieauthor #paranormalromance

Let it be known, if the MMC kisses the palm of the FMC at any point in the book, I’m going to melt. More reverence and tenderness please. 🫠 #romancelandia #monsterromance Brought to you by my current read:

This was so sweet. Low angst, fun world building, language barrier. Character driven—really focuses in on discovering one another. Abrupt ending but the story is so charming I didn’t mind. I hope there are more to come. And I’d LOVE to have a print trophy but sadly not available. #alienromance

Tonight’s monster erotica choice. I grabbed a collection of four novellas by Sibley Stamps. First up is a Cryptids tale featuring dogmen. Plural. 👏 Think werewolf that never changes form. Walks on four or two legs. 🌚 #erotica #monstererotica

Book cover featuring two Cryptids called dogmen approaching a woman standing between the headlights of her broken down truck on a remote backroad.

Alien hucuw erotica is on this evening’s menu. I need ridiculous OTT escapism. So far it’s a fun read but the sci-fi aspects are terrible and the world building confusing. Novella length doesn’t mean the sci-fi and world building have to be shoddy. #alienromance

Cover for the book Claiming Their Hucow by Belle Heifer featuring three humanoid alien males with tattoos and battle gear in front of a space background.

This book has given me so much anxiety! It’s #scifiromance but also part psychological thriller—if you have any kind of water fears. He’s a cyborg with animal and human DNA. She is human and a water chemist. He hears her distress call and rescues her from a flooding planet.

Book cover of Storm Surge by Naomi Lucas featuring a shirtless man who is a cyborg with human and animal DNA wearing a metal mask over his nose and mouth and metal gauntlets.

I don’t know what Lee Jacquot puts in her novellas but they’re always delicious. Actually I do, it’s how she uses banter to build tension by revealing truths. Anyway, if you want a quick V Day romance read, pick this up. I know I keep it not human most of the time but this one is very human.

Cover of author Lee Jacquot’s book Cupid’s Peak featuring a mountain range and a Valentine’s Day color palette.

Hint: there’s a saddle + reins ✨for her✨. Each book is progressively spicier and book 3 is on the darker side, and my favorite. There’s magical sexy times healing for the centaurs in the lady stables. Just get it. #monsterromance #omegaverse

Want some spicy centaur romance? ebooks for the first 2 books in L.V Lane’s series are on sale. Not a shifter series; he’s a horse the entire book. Double meaning intended. 🌚 Wondering ‘how they do that?’ Read the book to find out how she creatively solves that problem. #monsterromance #omegaverse
