My Top Ten Dark Reads

By 96 Comments

I’ve been asked for a list like this… oh… for about a year now. Ever since I came out with my little “dark read” obsession. What a relief it was to find out I wasn’t alone in my weird thrill.

Dena: any chance you will put together a list of “dark” reads on your blog?

Alicia: She has dark reads…how dark do you wanna go? She’s got the BDSM dark, but if you want darker, there’s a few out there that aren’t on here.

Dena: I loved her recommendation for the captive in the dark series, Comfort Food, etc.. read more

Reader Question… Solved! The dark book about the girl being abused by her brother who was in love with her…

By 9 Comments

Em needs our book help! OMG yikes!! I dunno how long that book delves into that dark part, but the fact that Em says it’s a tough book to read makes me think it’s a large part of it.

She asks:

Book I’m trying to remember

I read a while back a very dark book. It was a young girl whose brother was in love with her. The brother abuses her. Her parents were killed.

She makes friends with a older biker across the street who owns a dog. She ends up falling for a friend of the older biker. read more

MAFIA PRINCES/DARK READ ALERT & BOOK #3 JUST WENT LIVE!! Each one can be read as a standalone. 😀

Holly: I read the first 2 books last week! It’s a crazy series but I couldn’t put it down. Looking forward to getting stuck into the next one

About book #1:

I caught the attention of a monster.
I didn’t ask for it.
Didn’t even see it coming.
But the moment I do, it’s too late.
Killian Carson is a predator wrapped in sophisticated charm.
He’s cold-blooded, manipulative, and savage.
The worst part is that no one sees his devil side.
I do.
And that will cost me everything.
I run, but the thing about monsters?
They always chase. read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the ballerina that is abducted after seeing a crime, and her dance partner purposely dropped & injured her…

Nada is looking for this book! Hrmmm… interesting!! I know of a few “ballerina” heroine books that had a dark romance feel (I’m thinking of Skye Warren maybe?) but hopefully someone knows for sure!

She asks:

Hi Maryse,

I’m going crazy trying to find a book I read. I don’t remember the title.

What I do remember is the main female character is a ballerina who witnesses a murder in a garage after rehearsal or a show. I think she gets abducted right away and forced to stay with the main Male character. read more

About book #1:

She tries to escape. She tries to reason with me. And then she tries to change the rules. But this is my game, and I won’t be played. I own her now…

Three years ago, I let down my guard, and I paid the ultimate price when the woman I loved was murdered right in front of my eyes. read more

<— BOOK FOG ALERT!!!! I just received the most amazing recommendation and had to post this awesome sounding duet!!

Michelle LOVED IT!

Hi, Maryse! 😊

I have been following your blook blog since I was in high school (so almost 10-ish years now), and there’s always a bit of nostalgia every time I check back in to see what reads you have to recommend.

There’s a bit of ebb and flow when it comes to making time for new reads. I finally picked up a book in what feels like forever, and my goodness, do I have a recommendation for you. read more
