Look at this incredible art of Oliver and Jude, my characters from The Whims of Hate (Monstrous Whims #2), my dystopian M/M monster romance. The enemies-to-lovers trope is strong in this one, since it's a villain redemption arc.

My new fantasy M/M romance pre-order is live! It features a crew of endearing idiots on a flying pirate ship, a dual POV (dragoner x captain), smut (duh), dragons (but not the kind you can ride, but the kind you can scavenge organic matter from). It's funny, cozy, angsty, and horny lol.

I get you. Not many things trigger me, but I still avoid stuff I don't enjoy, like hard non-con or some kinks. Golden shower in a book? I like to be warned 🤣 I'll pass.

My books are often dystopian, so it's another kind of content warning.

A dog mouth, fingers in a mouth, a person with a house on fire behind them and a gas can in their hand and bloodied hands the four photos have the following text:

I'm the monster nobody can love, and he's the jellyfish that stings anyone who gets close.Thankfully, I'm immune to his venom.

I was definitely written by Mell R Bright Because I am restliant, angry and gay.

He has haunted my nightmares more than any old god ever did.
