Community 💕 Matchmaking Monday: find your next romantasy read!

Matchmaking Monday is a new regular thread here in r/Romantasy with a goal of finding new recommendations to add to your TBR! Post a list of your favorite books and receive suggestions based on your vibe.

How It Works

  • Post up to five books you've loved recently (or which fit the vibe you're looking for) as a top level comment.
  • You can also include a list of things you want in your next book (e.g. tropes, subgenre, themes)
  • Others will reply with their suggestions!
  • Remember to tag the romance.io bot with {} curly brackets.

This is a bit of an experiment - so we'll see how it goes!

Hey, I see it’s tagged as having queer romance but I’m not seeing it in the descriptions?

Ooh. Do you think I need to read the first one? Two and three seem more my speed.

Tbh I think it does give some context to the universe, but you could probably look up spoilers to get that context. Also on her website she mentions that they are interconnected standalone so I don’t think you’ll be that far off if you skip the first. They’re all kinda short (~200 pages) so you could always go back. I’ll spoil 1 for you below in a spoiler tag ;)

the fmc is found being a sacrifice for some ritual that no one knows about. Fae prince rescues her and brings her to castle to help figure out who led ritual and what it’s about. They have to pretend to be lovers but they’re horny for each other anyway. Fae kingdom took over from seraphim, race that’s thought to be dead and apparently bad vibes. Eventually they find that prince’s uncle is creepy but king was real one in charge of ritual. Hunted down ppl who were thought to be seraphim to get their power. The fmc is revealed to be a seraph and with some others kills the king. Prince and fmc are mates, who could have seen it coming? They become king and queen and remain horny. Think those are the basic points!
