Once Upon a Bookmance

Very few books make me cry but this book Holy moly did I cry alot but such a good book

Best Friend's Brother, Contemporary Romance!🔥 Things That Break Us is a gripping contemporary romance that explores the heavy emotional toll of trauma and the transformative power of a dark, protective love. This billionaire romance follows a broken heroine searching for a fresh start and the possessive hero who will stop at nothing to shield her from her past. As their worlds collide, they must navigate deep-seated secrets and high-stakes tension that threatens to shatter their fragile connection. This story is a raw look at healing, revenge, and the dangerous passion that ignites when two damaged souls finally find their match.

Fans of Michelle Heard's emotional storytelling will find echoes of the intense devotion found in works by authors like Ana Huang or Meagan Brandy. It carries the dark, brooding atmosphere of The Ritual by Shantel Tessier combined with the heart-wrenching billionaire stakes of the Twisted series. If you loved the high-angst protective vibes of novels like Haunting Adeline or the gritty emotional depth of the Ravenhood series, this book offers that same addictive blend of danger and devotion. It's the perfect follow-up for readers who crave the soul-shattering intensity of a Colleen Hoover novel but with a darker, more possessive edge.

This story masterfully weaves together the billionaire hero microtrope with a touch of dark revenge and the "who did this to you" energy that romance readers crave. It captures the heavy, atmospheric vibe of a psychological thriller while staying firmly rooted in the emotional intimacy of a contemporary romance. With elements of "he's only soft for her" and a "touch her and die" protective streak, it hits all the marks for a high-intensity binge read. Think of the brooding intensity of a show like Succession mixed with the dark romantic obsession of You.

Perfect for readers who love: billionaire romance, dark contemporary romance, high angst, protective heroes, possessive alpha males, healing from trauma, revenge themes, secret pasts, emotional roller coasters, heavy steam, Kindle Unlimited romance, soul-shattering endings, forbidden vibes, and strong heroines.

HIS ANGEL

I was born into a secret society known as the Lords. There is no limit to their depravity. If they want to be respected, they have to earn it.

Women like me are merely allowed to exist in their world … until they no longer need us.

I’ve spent most of my life wishing death would find me. That I’d be granted an escape from the reality I was forced to endure. But luck has never been on my side. It seemed I was destined to never be anything more than a failure.



I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.

Then one night I took control of my life. It was my first taste of freedom, and I wanted someone to notice me.

Turns out, that was a mistake, and my father had been right, I didn’t deserve to be seen.

A Lord—Kashton Landon Pierce—saved me, and I offered to pay him the only way I knew how—with my body. After he finished with me, I ran.

Now he’s back in my life, wanting to pick up where we left off.

The problem with that is I’m no longer the scared woman I was when we met. I’ve spent years digging myself out of a dark hole, and I refuse to allow any man to drag me back. Especially a Spade brother. Even if he is promising me everything I’ve ever wanted.

I underestimated him. Kashton inserted himself into my everyday life and invaded my dreams.

He needed a pet to keep chained in the basement. A toy to occupy his free time. His brothers were busy living their lives, so he decided to take over mine.

What I didn’t expect was for him to make me feel loved. To be taken care of and put first before anything else. After being told you’re worthless your whole life, it’s hard not to believe it.

Kashton made me feel cherished and accepted me for who I was—unworthy.

For a moment, I found myself hoping for a future that I knew wasn’t possible. One where I could be what he needed. But our world has a way of teasing happiness before stripping it all away.

⚠️This touches on very dark themes. The 𝗧𝗪𝘀 will be posted inside the book before the prologue and on Shantel's website. ⚠️
