May I request a list from you? I want to watch Flex X Cop, but I'm more interested in the supporting cast than the ML haha. is this possible? sorry for my English!
Hello, Anon! No need to apologize, your English is good!
I can totally do this. I will include everyone who gets whumped. :)
Edit: I've got some bad news, Anon. I watched the show and made a list, but there is nothing for the supporting cast. It is heavily focused on the ML and no one else really even gets a storyline. I'm sorry I couldn't give you what you asked for.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
- book anon from before
(Also I am halfway through the hanged man and it has me by the throat 😩 highly recommend! Also also I realized four of my most recent audiobooks, all of which I would say include found family, angst, and h/c, are narrated by the same guy. Do I have a type (of voice)? Does he have a type (of book)?)
Hello book anon! You’re very welcome! I am excited to read hanged man (though I don’t know when I’ll get to it).
Sounds like you both have a type (voice and book) !

At an out-of-the-way Seattle marina, he discovers that three people have been butchered—including the author of the country’s strictest anti-empathy bill, which is just days from being passed into law. Soon, Reece’s caller a shadowy government agent known as The Dead Man, who is rumored to deal exclusively in cases involving empathy.

Spell Bound by F. T. Lukens
Summary: Edison Rooker isn’t sure what to expect when he enters the office of Antonia Hex, the powerful sorceress who runs a call center for magical emergencies.

Antonia is…intimidating, but she gives him a job and a new name—Rook—both of which he’s happy to accept. Now all Rook has to do is keep his Spell Binder, an illegal magical detection device, hidden from the Magical Consortium. And contend with Sun, the grumpy and annoyingly cute apprentice to Antonia’s rival colleague, Fable. But dealing with competition isn’t so bad; as Sun seems to pop up more and more, and Rook minds less and less. But when the Consortium gets wind of Rook’s Spell Binder, they come for Antonia. All alone, Rook runs to the only other magical person he knows: Sun. Except Fable has also been attacked, and now Rook and Sun have no choice but to work together to get their mentors back…or face losing their magic forever.

A Market of Dreams and Destiny by Trip Galey

But news of the missing princess and her wayward destiny spreads. Royal enforcers and Master Merchants alike are after it. Outmanoeuvring them all would all be hard enough had Deri not just also met the love of his life, a young man called Owain, whose employers are using the Market for their own nefarious schemes. Deri soon finds that the price of selling the royal destiny, making a name for himself, and saving the man he loves is dear. The cost of it all might just change the destiny of London forever.

Silver Under Nightfall and Court of Wanderers by Rin Chupeco
Summary: Remy Pendergast is many things: the only son of the Duke of Valenbonne (though his father might wish otherwise), an elite bounty hunter of rogue vampires, and an outcast among his fellow Reapers. His mother was the subject of gossip even before she eloped with a vampire, giving rise to the rumors that Remy is half-vampire himself. Though the kingdom of Aluria barely tolerates him, Remy’s father has been shaping him into a weapon to fight for the kingdom at any cost. When a terrifying new breed of vampire is sighted outside of the city, Remy prepares to investigate alone. But then he encounters the shockingly warmhearted vampire heiress Xiaodan Song and her infuriatingly arrogant fiancé, vampire lord Zidan Malekh, who may hold the key to defeating the creatures—though he knows associating with them won’t do his reputation any favors. When he’s offered a spot alongside them to find the truth about the mutating virus Rot that’s plaguing the kingdom, Remy faces a choice. It’s one he’s certain he’ll regret. But as the three face dangerous hardships during their journey, Remy develops fond and complicated feelings for the couple. He begins to question what he holds true about vampires, as well as the story behind his own family legacy. As the Rot continues to spread across the kingdom, Remy must decide where his loyalties lie: with his father and the kingdom he’s been trained all his life to defend or the vampires who might just be the death of him.

The Druid Stone by Heidi Belleau

Cormac Kelly runs a paranormal investigation business and doesn't have time to deal with misinformed tourists like Sean. But Sean has real magic in his pocket, and even though Cormac is a descendant of legendary druids, he soon finds himself out of his depth...and not because Sean's the first man he's felt anything for in a long time. The pair develop an unexpected and intensely sexual bond, but are threatened at every turn when Sean's case attracts the unwelcome attention of the mad sidhe lords of ancient Ireland. When Sean and Cormac are thrust backward in time to Ireland's violent history—and their own dark pasts—they must work together to escape the curse and save their fragile relationship.

Whisper into the Night by Jay Leigh
Summary: Theo Moreau never wanted to be involved with politics, but when his mother wins the presidential election, he reluctantly agrees to tag along for his younger siblings. Nothing could have prepared him to juggle his anxiety, complex family dynamics, and the complicated world of the White House. Lacking supportive friends and family, he leans on his steadfast Secret Service agent as tensions rise across the divisive political landscape and the dangers of being close to the president come to the surface. Agent Connor O’Brien always wanted to be a hero, so working on the protective detail for the First Family seems like the perfect opportunity. What he isn’t expecting is to fall head over heels for the man under his protection. As their relationship blossoms, the foundation of the administration grows more unstable and the chatter from America’s right-wing demographic rises to a fever pitch. But when Theo becomes the target of their campaign, the stakes get even higher. Unsure of who to trust, and with little help from the President, Theo and Connor join forces with their motley group of friends to unravel the mystery of who is working against them from inside the White House before the situation turns explosive. As the sinister reach of this masked shadow spreads, Theo and Connor grow even closer and the magnitude of everything they risk losing propels them into a race against the nefarious mastermind, desperately clinging to the hope they’ve found in one another before their dream come true turns into a nightmare.
Genre: Contemporary, MM romance, suspense

Adonis by L Sherleen
Summary: Accused of a hate crime and expelled from school in his final year, Connor returns home to his seaside town to let everything blow over. There, not only does he have to learn to deal with the addition of two new stepbrothers and a new stepdad, but he also has to grapple with a world set against him. It’s not all bad though. Within his dad’s underwater lab, he discovers something in the deep. Something exciting. Something that calls to him. Something that doesn't shy away from the ugly in him as the world does. And Connor could use the distraction…even if it endangers his life.
Genre: Fantasy, MM romance, mermaids, science fiction, mystery
Whump tropes: Found family (kind of), bad parents, kidnapping, false accusations
Tumblr media
A Rake of His Own by A.J. Lancaster
Summary: Marius Valstar doesn’t know which is worse: the dead body in his greenhouse or the naked fae prince on his desk. The only rakes of interest to Marius are garden tools. Not fae princes. Certainly not the arrogant, selfish fae prince he has the misfortune to have a history with. But when Prince Rakken turns up naked and bleeding in Marius’s college the same day a body appears in his greenhouse, scruples must take second place to solving a murder that could unravel the delicate balance between humans and fae. Marius’s own developing magical powers are more hindrance than help – as is Rakken’s bloodied past. Forced to work together, they must forge an uneasy alliance if they are to track down the killer. But how can Marius trust the man who represents everything he’s trying to avoid?
Genre: Fantasy, fae, MM romance, mystery
Whump tropes: Pain from telepathy, attempted murder, bodyguard
Tumblr media
Wicked Fox by Kat Cho
Summary: Eighteen-year-old Gu Miyoung has a secret--she's a gumiho, a nine-tailed fox who must devour the energy of men in order to survive. Because so few believe in the old tales anymore, and with so many evil men no one will miss, the modern city of Seoul is the perfect place to hide and hunt. But after feeding one full moon, Miyoung crosses paths with Jihoon, a human boy, being attacked by a goblin deep in the forest. Against her better judgment, she violates the rules of survival to rescue the boy, losing her fox bead--her gumiho soul--in the process. Jihoon knows Miyoung is more than just a beautiful girl--he saw her nine tails the night she saved his life. His grandmother used to tell him stories of the gumiho, of their power and the danger they pose to humans. He's drawn to her anyway. With murderous forces lurking in the background, Miyoung and Jihoon develop a tenuous friendship that blossoms into something more. But when a young shaman tries to reunite Miyoung with her bead, the consequences are disastrous . . . forcing Miyoung to choose between her immortal life and Jihoon's.

Hi! Book anon from the recent post 👋
Romance scattered throughout is totally okay! I think most/all the books I listed have /some/ romance, it’s just not (in my view) the main thing driving the plot?
(Vs when, for example, a whole bunch of unresolved stuff happens but it doesn’t matter because the main character falls in love and gets married so it counts as a Happy Ending, or the main character has side character friends who have meaningful relationships with them, but fuck all of them because they’ve got a soulmate they don’t even know the name of to rescue)
I mean obviously books aren’t (all) this extremely single-track but I would put the grisha trilogy on one side of some invisible line and six of crows duology on the other, if that makes any sense???
Thank you!!!
Hello again Book Anon! This does make sense. I will get started on a list :)

More book rec lists please!!! Especially fantasy with found family, and not driven by romance (ideally with as few graphic sexual scenes as possible?)
lol sorry that’s probably way too specific
I loved the Six of Crows and a Darker Shade of Magic series SO much, and found they fit the above pretty well!
I also loved The Last Son (the Tarot Sequence, I've just started the second book so I cant speak for the whole series yet), I found the sexual scenes skippable and the romance sufficiently secondary to the found family and main plot (It does deal with past trauma/assault tho)
Thanks!
Hello, Anon!
I can definitely put together more book recs. I can't promise fantasy with found family and not romance-driven, but I'll see what I can do. I read a lot but I stopped tracking the whump themes.
I also loved The Last Son! I have yet to read the other books in the series though.
Much of what I've read lately has romance scattered throughout but I will go through my "read" list and put something together!
