Friday Reads: 💔feelings•😈edge•😏fun
3 stories → 3 moods: don’t, maybe, oops

Romance readers are not stupid. So why do so many platforms make us spend more time searching than actually reading?
Theo Reads exists because we wanted something simple and respectful:
– Every story is read by a human before it reaches you.
– Series without artificial cliffhangers; we’ve moved away from serializing chapters.
– Advanced filters: orientation, gender, trope, kink, content warnings, and length.
– No tokens. No coins. Ever.
Just good stories. Ready to be read.
And tonight, “simple and respectful” still means very fun.
And that’s why our Friday Reads won’t always be free.
They will always be fun.
Tonight’s easter egg? Hit reply in the next 48 hours to join our Advance Review Copy (ARC) team. Your very first ARC will be a dark romance launching soon.. eek!
With love,
Parneet 🤍

P.S. HNY - 2026 is going to be amazing!

 “Gorgeous prose with tonally appropriate word choice, and a carefully considered aesthetic tone… 5/5.” ” | By Lizette Monroe (🌶️🌶️🌶️ Friends to Lovers, Forbidden Love) “I messed up. I let myself get caught up in an affair of the heart.” She thought she’d cut him off for good. Then Wes walks into her hotel under a fake name… and straight into the fantasy she never dared act on. What follows is a gut-twisting story of emotional cheating, obsession, and that moment of admission: I’m going to hurt someone I love, and I don’t know how to stop myself. 💔🔥 🎁 Leave a review to get 50% off on your next story. |

 “This story is tender, sexy, and exquisitely written - one of my favorites!” | By Titus Androgynous (🌶️🌶️🌶️ Small Town, Enemies to Lovers) Have you ever thought you were attracted to this, only to meet a stranger who changes it to that? A modern, magnetic love story about first awakenings. Sarah doesn’t expect to be undone by a stranger—let alone one who quietly challenges everything she thought she knew about desire. Then she meets Em. Set in modern Toronto, this is a sharp, sensual story about chemistry, confidence, and the moment attraction turns into a first awakening. 🎁 Leave a review to get 50% off on your next story. |

 “Pure fun - a quick, satisfying read!" | By Laila Bell (🌶️🌶️🌶️ Enemies to Lovers) When Monroe’s new vibrator ends up on the wrong porch, she just wants to grab it and disappear - preferably before anyone realizes what it is. But instead of her sweet, nerdy neighbor, it’s his sinfully hot, infuriatingly smug brother who opens the door in nothing but a towel… and a wicked grin. 🎁 Leave a review to get 50% off on your next story. |
