A Discovery Of Witches by Deborah Harkness! It has a TV show too. It’s starting in the US in January.
@Hannah I’ve got a fabulous idea and I think you might be just the person to do it with! I’ll PM you…
@Tanisha awesome, I’m intrigued…
@Hannah give me an hour though, I’m about to drive. LA traffic is the worst!
@Tanisha I’ll be asleep in an hour lol. I’ll see it when I’m up tomorrow ?.
@Hannah finally got my butt in a chair at home for an hour, lol, sending you a PM now!
@Tanisha LOVE the idea!
@Hannah exc?♀️ted!
The monsters ball anthology
CARRY ON BY RAINBOW ROWELL! captive prince by cs pacat (read the trigger warnings if you have any triggers) the cruel prince by holly black and my favorite anime has this premise with the main character too, if you’re into manga it’s called Inuyasha and it’s literally perfect
@Valeria Inuyasha is sooooooo good!! It kind of spoils the story, you calling it forbidden love, though.
@Hannah I know right?? It’s my absolute favorite!! And I didn’t call it forbidden love, op asked for a main romance that can’t stand each other at first but then fall in love and that’s literally the main pairing ? (I love them so much!!)
@Valeria, yes. That does give away the plot, though.

These are all fantasy and are all the first books in series.
Lol! Thank you, I’ll check them out
I am not responsible for any series that become addictive
But on the plus side. All the books from each series have been released… no waiting for the next one??
Can’t wait for the next book in the Rebel’s Blade series!!! Ah!
@Valerie oh yeah! I forgot that one was still going ??
I can’t wait ?
And thank you for the other recommendations. I have read Blood Oath… it wasn’t my fave, but it was quite a journey for sure. And of course anything by queen Maas is amazing. I will have to look into the other ones ?
@Kiah yes Rebel’s Blade
Pretty Broken Promises by Jeana Mann it’s not fantasy more like romance but it’s a really good book.
Thanks

Falling kingdoms
The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw
The Renegades by Marissa Meyer is awesome!
You should give Korean Dramas (tv shows) a try. That is the premise for like 80% of them and it’s like reading a book since it’s subtitled. No joke they are soooooo good! https://viki.com/ is a good place to start.
thank you! I saw one once and liked it but didn’t know where to look for more. So I’ll definitely check it out
Lie to Me ( The Korean show, not the Crime solving American Show) was really good. It was about a woman who was tired of everyone making fun of her for being so tied up with her career that she never settled down. So she lies and says she has a relationship with a business man that is known in what is like their version of Forbes. It’s a fun shenanigan filled show.
My favs are Goblin, Scarlet Heart Ryeo, and W!!! I watch kdramas everyday now, it’s my happy place!
Daisy a korean movie is amazing
Star Crossed
Asunder by L. Steinworth!!! It starts with him kidnapping her..
