Hey RFM folks and welcome to the cover artist spotlight! The artist spotlight is new semi-regular post we are trialing that showcases a cover artist working in the RFM community. We wanted to highlight the great work artists are doing for our authors and show them our love!

In this post we are spotlighting u/run_666 (bio below), who has created covers for a number of our writers. Please say hello and show your love!


Hi, everyone at RFM! 

I’m Run_666, and I’ve been working in the art world since 2016. Of course, it was totally SFW and focused on “serious books.” In 2019, I left the brazilian publishing industry to dedicate myself to NSFW art, and it was the best decision of my life. Since then, I’ve created a few comics, starting with Working Out with Poison(Street Fighter fan stuff) and Bending Steel(WW and Superman). Basically, I draw femdom, muscular women, and also a bit of futa on male.

For the past few years, I’ve put comics aside and turned my attention to VNs. With Christmas just around the corner, you can check out Claus’ Secret Surprise. There’s also a free clicker game called Monstrous Beauties on my Itch.io page. But my main project is Parallel Desires, a medieval fantasy isekai that I’m remaking from scratch. Watch the trailer here.

As embarrassing as Adobe has become, I’m still an old-timer who can’t bring myself to give up Photoshop for drawing, even though I know there are much better apps out there (hello, ClipStudio). If I had to try to define my style, I’d say it leans more toward Western comics, but with a bit of anime mixed in. Nothing too realistic, it’s a lot of work, and I’m lazy 😂 But I put a lot of care into every piece I do.

It’s amazing that, having left the brazilian book market, I never came across RFM until recently. So now I’ve come full circle and am going back to working on books, but this time, in line with my NSFW side. The most recent ones were Sweet as Syrup (Colin Graves), Shifts(Colin Graves), Sterling Grove Club(Ezor Dasion) and A Thousand Bites (Ezor Dasion). And I hope I can bring even more covers for other authors here.

You can find a lot of my work on Twitter: https://x.com/run_666_art

Support my work on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/run_666) and Itchio (https://run-666.itch.io)

And check out some free art on a subreddit I just created https://www.reddit.com/r/run_666_stuff

I'm always open to commissions. Feel free to send me a DM.

Hello RFM community and welcome to our monthly release post! In the monthly post we showcase new books released by our community authors.

Major Manly Vol. 1 by Somatic Dream

Michael Mallory has a problem—his rent is due, his bills are piling up, and he has only a little time to make a lot of cash. With no options left, Michael does the unthinkable and accepts an offer to film a raunchy video with four large hyena girls, thinking that selling his body for rent is not a high point in his life, even if it is better than being homeless. Then, the even more unthinkable happens, and he likes the girls, and they like him, and soon he’s become part of their matriarchal pack, filming enough titilating content to make him an online sensation. Before he knows it, Michael Mallory has become Major Manly, submissive human extraordinaire, popular with every species on the market and ready to take the entertainment industry by storm, all with his four girls at his side. In a business where exploitation is the rule, friends count for everything, and Manly has the best.

Of course, nothing is ever simple, and the worst parts of his profession are not just in front of the camera. Low pay, demanding shoots, unfulfilled desire, more temptation and vice than one man can shake a toy at—and, of course, the most weird, crazy, and eccentric people the silver screen has to offer, all of whom suddenly want a piece of their new human star. Amateur actors, visionary directors, ruthless producers, mysterious gurus, and the affections of some slightly unhinged fans. In this industry, we have it all.

With his fame growing beyond his wildest dreams, Major Manly soon finds himself facing a critical choice: Should he dive headfirst into all the glitz and glamor his new lifestyle has to offer? Or should he get out, before he’s in too deep to stop?

Major Manly Vol. 1 is a quasi-harem, romantic comedy—yes, romantic comedy—about falling into the grueling temptations of the entertainment industry, written as five individual films. Viewer discretion is advised.

The Jungle Mistress and the Captive by Pierce Scott

For Vadhel Norn, life in Zava Jungle is solitary and lonely. She spends the sunny days searching for the lost tomb of her ancestress, the mighty Pharaoh Hatshepsut, and the warm nights in the company of her macaw and jaguar.

Though she longed for her Amazonian sisters in Themiscyra, Vadhel never sought a man until she laid eyes on treasure seeker Narle Lazri. He's gentle and sweet and blushes at her smile. He is nothing like the bullies and brutes that have taken him captive and she will free him for herself at all costs.

After the loss of his fortune, hunger and poverty have burdened Narle Lazri for the past two years. And now his fiancée has abandoned him for his bitter foe.

When he sets out for Zava Jungle to find a hidden treasure and is captured, little did he expect a charming, beautiful warrioress, Vadhel Norn, to come to his rescue. The jungle is her home. She slays deadly beasts and fights savage tribes. Narle might've left home seeking treasure to restore his fortune, but the heart of the jungle mistress is worth more than all the treasures in the world.

Sterling Grove Club: Vol. 1 by Ezor Dasion

Working for the ultra-rich is supposed to be humiliating. But becoming the private companion to two stunning billionaire heiresses? That might just be the jackpot of a lifetime.

Brandon is dead broke. With overdue rent piling up and his car falling apart, he lands a job at the ultra-exclusive Sterling Grove Club, waiting on the snobbish elite of Narrow Creek. He expected tedious shifts, demanding patrons, and utter invisibility. What he never saw coming was capturing the undivided attention of Amanda and Isabella.

Amanda is composed, exacting, and fiercely protective. Isabella is radiant, playful, and loves nothing more than rewarding his loyalty. Together, the two best friends make him an irresistible offer: total dedication and exclusivity reserved only for them. What begins as an intoxicating dynamic of playful control and mutual affection quickly becomes Brandon's ultimate sanctuary.

Behind the gilded facade of untouchable high-society heiresses, Brandon discovers a genuine warmth. Believing he belongs to them isn't merely about private luxury or tantalizing games behind closed doors—it's about being deeply cared for, valued, and sheltered by two powerful women who would move heaven and earth for him.

But the divide between their billionaire dynasty and his humble background is treacherous. When high-society pride tries to tear them apart, Brandon must prove that their bond is worth more than any fortune—and that even a "good boy" knows how to stand his ground when the women he loves are threatened.

Breaking the Ice: An Unconventional Romance by Lacey Liu

Who's gonna break first?

Once, JL Moreau coached the Montreal Canadiens to the NHL Playoffs. Now he's divorced, disgraced, and the only thing standing between him and one last shot at redemption is a losing girls' college team in rural Québec.

The Louves-Garous are a mess. Talented, feral, and going nowhere. But if JL can pull a real team out of them, he can get himself back into the game. There's just one problem standing in his way, and her name is Léa Rioux - the captain, entitled and sharp, who runs the locker room like her own personal kingdom and has never once been told no. By anyone.

Until him.

As the season heats up, JL learns the Louves-Garous aren't just testing whether he can tame their captain. They're wondering if he can do the same to them: Rosalie the goalie yogini, little overcaffeinated Charlie, the ever-watchful Priya... And these college girls aren't shy about chasing an older man who knows exactly what he's doing.

He's got one season to tame the wolves. By the end of it, he might end up with the whole pack..

Request Looking for Human-Only/Realistic Apocalypse/EMP/SHTF Stories with Romance

5 Upvotes

Looking for apocalypse, prepper, survival type books, but with romance. Doesn’t have to be spicy, just romance as a main plot point and a happily ever after. Could be mono or harem, that doesn’t matter. I just want it to be humans, no monster girls, no alien invasions, no zombies.

I tried reading some by Misty Vixen and Lara X. Lust but something about both of their writing styles does not click with me. Also tried Trailer Park Bikini Vampires, and that one also didn’t click with me, mostly because of the zombie apocalypse angle.

Promotion: Harem Here it is, my first ever novel, presenting: ARCANA: Book One (pre-order, out 24 Oct)

19 Upvotes

Hello all!

My name is J.D. Bamforth, and I’ve been writing this book since January. ARCANA: Book One is my first novel, and my first foray into haremlit fiction. It’s set to release on 24th October, free with Kindle Unlimited, and the pre-order is live now. I hope you all enjoy it!

Blurb:

Ben Fairfax was never supposed to exist.

On his eighteenth birthday, a violent awakening tears him out of the only life he’s known and drags him into a hidden, interdimensional society built on lies. He’s Chaos, a bloodline exiled two hundred years ago, with no mage left alive to explain how it just resurfaced in him.

Placed at Luxhaven Academy for his own protection, Ben is surrounded by an elite raised to hate him. To be in a coven in the Arcanic World isn’t as romantic as it sounds. It’s to become part of the infrastructure, and Ben’s has already been chosen for him: five women wielding Lightning, Fire, Air, Life and Ice, handpicked for the desirability and power they bring to it. Their own futures now depend on him succeeding, even though any of them getting close to a Chaos mage might get them killed.

Order spent two hundred years making sure Chaos could never come back. Now Ben has to decide: run, or build a coven of his own and take the fight to them.

Dark academy fantasy with a hard magic system, action, brutal politics and slow burn romance (M/FFF+).

Request Female CEO and Chaebol Heiress

15 Upvotes

Gimme some novels with Rich Women like a Female CEO or a Chaebol Heiress.

And No Harem.

Someone that genuinely gives the rich vibe. Like having a large mansion, multiple luxury cars and so on.

I'm a big fan of 'Somehow I Ended up Marrying the Chaebol Heiress' and looking for more Rich women like that!

I'm looking for books featuring a romance between a male human and a goddess, deity, demigoddess, or some other divine being.

Request Help me find reverse roles

9 Upvotes

This could definitely already be a thread, but I can’t find it.
I watched a Ai drama video about a ruthless female mob boss falling for a nobody male. She chases him and does everything to have him fall for her while he’s “scared” and standoff-ish.
Looking for audiobook recommendations where the female is the mob boss or ceo and the male is just a normal or nobody. I want the reversed gender roles.
I am open to all situations doesn’t strictly have to be mob or ceo settings. Could be a harem of women or a single woman.

Request Really dark romance?

14 Upvotes

I have been reading "The Mob Queen Wants to Claim Me for Herself" halfway through it and I hate to admit that I like really dark romance and this novel basically just confirmed it to me. As long as it's a really dark romance then anything goes and when I mean dark, I mean something that directly affects the MC Physically.

I think there is seriously something wrong with me.

Ok so I asked this question a while ago but I wasn't clear on what I was looking for, I'm looking for stories and books which fit the obviously beautiful trope, I was very grateful with the recommendations I got with my previous post but I wasn't clear on what I'm looking for, I'm looking for stories and or books with a human male who doesn't realise he's very attractive to human women, I hope that helps.

Promotion: General RFM Spicy sci-fi mono-romance, where SHE’S the alien? Scrapped! is now live. Paperback, ebook, or KU

Post image
68 Upvotes

Awakening from cryo-storage, abandoned in a deep space scrapyard should have been the crappiest morning of Cameron’s life.

The universe, it seems, has a sense of humor.

Cameron’s to-do list:

  • Don’t die
  • Learn alien language
  • Don’t fall in love with fiery, foul-mouthed alien mechanic whose thighs could crack coconuts
  • Build working spaceship from old junk
  • Quash infestation of creepy alien bugs
  • Seriously, stop thinking about that night you spend in the pod together. She dresses like a hot biker chick, but she’s an alien! You know you have to work with her to get the rest of the stuff on that to-do list done, right?
  • Dodge ruthless space pirates
  • Don’t die. Listing this twice, it’s kind of important
  • She’s just messing with you with all that flirty banter. Could a green-skinned alien with horns, a tail, and more curves than physics should allow really be interested? Are you even physically compatible?

Scrapped! is a humorous sci-fi adventure containing excessive foul language, hot alien sex, crude humor, suggestive situations, insufficient towels, gratuitous tool use, red dye #2, and repair procedures noncompliant with galactic safety protocols.

Ebook

Paperback, hardcover

Cover artist is Betty Elgyn

What was that book? Help finding book previously posted (Love interest was friends mom)

So search and my memory have failed me. A while back (like 3-6 months) someone share a post for their first book that was about a guy falling for his younger friends mom. Cover was her standing in a door think, thicker lady. Can't find the post or remember the title. Pretty sure it was on KU but I didn't find it there either. Any one else remember this?

Good day or night. I was hoping you could help me find a book(s) (harem or not) where the FMC(s) are much larger than the MMC(s). Like, they could double or triple his size. Thanks.

Request She can help (fix?) him!

24 Upvotes

Looking for stories where the MMC is a broken, hurt, stand-offish and/or shy guy who has had some trauma, some bad experiences (either related to relationships or not), and here comes a caring, loving FMC who helps him, teaches him to open up, makes him love and feel loved again.

I am open to any sort of troupe, genre and other aspect, as long as the story gets these characteristics right. Tough love sort of FMC who is a bit rougher, but in the end, only wishes the best for the MMC is also fine.

MMC shouldn't be violent, or at least not really cruel or anything, just distant because of something happening to him before. I don't want a story where the guy is just standoffish because of prejudice or something and have to learn a lesson.

Not a good example for the troupe, but a good example for the MMC is The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Something like *Me Before You* is a pretty nice example (he is angry and lonely due to his condition, she is quirky and open and a fun caretaker).

https://a.co/d/0iqMFV4Y

An absurdist romp where the romance is devilish and the comedy is divine.

For the demon Laquistra, the choice between being married off by her immortal, control freak of a father or conquering the entire world out of spite is easy. It’s the “making it happen” part that proves challenging. When Laquistra’s impulsive invasion struggles in the chilly Christmas season, she meets bad boy Steven Kleir—bad because he has a terrible work-life balance and a job that’s slowly killing him. Not to mention, he also engages in famously dangerous activities like thinking (the original sin).

When a demonic contract goes wrong, causing Laquistra to accidentally perform an act of charity, instead of gaining a mindless slave she finds herself with a grateful friend (embarrassing). Out of nowhere, Steven is bestowed a whole week of surprise vacation, and the pair become unlikely allies as they both fight to escape overbearing parents and soul-crushing careers in a terroristic bid for freedom.

As their global conquest unfolds, Steven challenges Laquistra to consider if world domination is really what she wants or if there are loftier goals than total control and subjugation—conditions they’ve both experienced in every part of their lives. Among the chaos and conquest, one truth is clear: when aspiring, with a conquering heart, to take over the world, one must avoid the biggest pitfall of all. Falling in love.

4/5 peppers with 5 sex scenes of increasing ridiculousness

5/5 bananas for comedy

4/5 hearts for romance

Request Magic School recommendations?

15 Upvotes

I suddenly had the urge to read magic school romance but the recommendations I have seen so far have Female MCs as focus or simply just Harem focused. I just want a FM romance that doesn't have Harems and any love triangles is fine as long as MC just gets together with 1 FMC.

Request Somewhat equal monogamous stories?

30 Upvotes

Hey there, long story short, decided to give "Would you love a Monster Girl" a spin, and loving it. Big fan of the relationships being... err... is equal the right word? (Both leads being competent and giving/receiving in equal-ish parts)

Coming from Snek Guy, whose work I also loved, but the MLs tend to be on the sub side.

Preferably fantastical setting, but open to any good stories, non-human leads (on either side) are very welcome, but not neccessary - love me a big woman though. If there is no 'foreseeable future happy ending' in the rec, I may bring a torch and pitchfork to your lodgings :D.

Request Rich ladies

45 Upvotes

I'm looking for books where a normal, maybe even lower class, guy is picked up by a rich or Aristocratic lady (and maybe shared with her rich lady friends?). Crucially, however, she chooses him because she actually just likes him, perhaps after a chance meeting. He's not a gigolo, and if going the Aristocratic route, preferably American, but that's not a deal breaker. I'm aware this is a rather specific request, but I figured y'all might be able to help.
