Switching careers: Marketing to Nursing

Growing up, being a gynaecologist was always so important to me but life happened and now we are here.

But if I'm still alive and struggling, I was thinking it'd give me a lot more joy and fulfilment if I can find my way back, at least as close as I realistically can, but I don't know where to start.

I'm 28. And I'm lost. And I need help.

Please help me.

Looking for MM Romance Horror for the szn!

Hi friends!

This is a new genre I’ve been looking to try and October presents the perfect time for that.

The closest I’ve come is Immersed by Gale Ian Tate. Stressed me out but I liked it some.

I want something with a good plot. HEA isn’t compulsory (I’d prefer if there wasn’t but I’d take anything). Something well written.

- No BDSM
- No agegap
- No magic
- The less smut the better

Thank ya! Love ya!

Looking for MM romance where the closeted/family man falls in love, cheats, loses him, then has to find his way back (Read on. This is very specific. 👇😭)

I’m looking for an MM romance with a messy, emotionally complicated relationship. Specifically, I want one of these:

1. Single dad + cheating
A single father falls in love with a man, but cheats on him or otherwise seriously screws up the relationship. They separate, go their own ways, and eventually find their way back to each other. I want the reconciliation to actually feel earned, not an instant “I’m sorry” and everything is magically fixed.

OR

2. Married/closeted man + affair
A man is married to a woman and has children with her, but is secretly gay/closeted. He has an affair with another man, falls genuinely in love with him, and eventually has to confront his marriage, family, sexuality and the consequences of what he’s done.

I’m very much okay with cheating, angst, complicated family situations and morally questionable MCs. In fact, I’m actively looking for the mess.

What I don’t want is the cheating being treated like it never happened. I want the emotional fallout and reconciliation to actually matter.

Bonus points for:
- Single dad
- Closeted MC
- Kids/family drama
- Second chance romance
- Years apart
- Grovel
- Lots of angst
- HEA

Please recommend anything that comes close, even if it doesn’t hit every single point. I’m desperate for this particular flavour of emotional damage!

Still building my TBR: Looking for MM Romance recommendations without HEAs, please.

Hey friends!

Me again. Yes, I want to hurt myself. Tin Man by Sarah Winman was one of my 5 star reads in August and it reminded me of:

- A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara
- More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera
- The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
- Yes, Daddy by Jonathan Parks-Ramage

Note: Most of them do not classify strictly under romance.

I know it's controversial and I understand why but | generally enjoy books that hurt and these are some I've encountered in the MM space and I'd like more for when I need like feeling that much again.

Thank you! ✨
