JUMANJI x PRIORY OF THE 🍊 TREE
Mage is trapped in a strange, fantastical dungeon disconnected from everything she knows about reality, unless she can win the game, alongside 9 other captive young women.
Oh, and she has wings and new powers, too.

TWILIGHT w/ a Black MC
When 16yo Haitian-American Mia & her fright-loving older bro move to a strange town, she never expects to meet 3 wolf-like HS boys who run the place.
They’re obsessed w/ her for reasons beyond her grasp. She could be the answer to a supernatural war, or the cause

SWEET TOOTH x TENDER IS THE FLESH
Scientists mix the DNA of humans & animals to create an alternative for labor. Hybrids now form the bedrock of every aspect of humanity—from pets to edible cattle, s*x workers to dogs of the military—but at a staggering cost when that system crashes

With the rise of "strong," kickbutt, don't-need-a-man FMCs, I feel left behind
Maybe it's my chronic pain condition, or b/c I've dreamed of love ever since I was a little girl. But I've been hungry for weak, scared FMCs who can't throw a punch, but fight anyway to find their HEA #booksky #romantasy
