- 🖤❤️🔥 They told us to choose. We didn’t.
So many of you have asked me: Why Theo Reads?
It’s simple.
This is not just a platform.
It is a sanctuary for the whole of you.
Theo Reads exists to help us remember what the world made us forget:
That love is holy. That desire is sacred. That your body is sacred too.
We grew up believing we had to choose — between love and lust, between spirit and flesh, between what stirs our soul and what sets our skin on fire.
We learned to divide ourselves into neat, respectable boxes.
But we were never meant to be split apart.
Here, we are stitching the pieces back together.
We honor the sweetness of romance and the raw pulse of desire — because they are made of the same spark.
We welcome every orientation, every pairing, every kink, every truth — because nothing true about you is unworthy of love.
And yes — in practical terms, this means Theo Reads has it all:
A dark erotic dystopia where the 1% legally own slaves (as disturbing as The Handmaid’s Tale).
A romantic suspense where a detective hunts a small‑town killer…and falls for an ex‑Marine. (“Why do skulls smile?”)
A bank teller seduced by the robber.
A CEO whose jawline should be illegal (Radish readers: email [email protected] for your free story).
A blackmail plot where the “good guys” have a dangerous edge.
A small-town romance about the elusive fountain of youth.
We are not here to play small.
We are here to make you remember.
With love,
Parneet 🤍

 | A Dark Future: Testing By Henry Coen (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Dystopian, Dark Romance/Erotica) What happens when a fascist government runs mad? Robert and Jane are a polyamorous couple recovering from a bad breakup with an unfaithful girlfriend when the world changes. Robert is horrified by the changes, and, seeing an opportunity, Jane pushes Robert to allow her to ‘save’ a group of girls by assembling them into a harem for him. |
 Theo Exclusive | Dangerous Ground By M.R. Rutter (🌶️🌶️🌶️ Romantic Suspense) A sinkhole is the perfect place to hide a body. “Rutter gets it right in the debut novel… Dangerous Ground launches a promising career!” - New York Times Bestselling Author Wendy Corsi Staub Or is it? While standing over the skeletons of young women discovered deep beneath the earth, Deputy Sheriff Ingrid Olaffsen knew she was facing the challenge of her career. One she thought she’d never see working in rural Minnesota. She was wrong. Soon there’s the disappearance of yet another girl and Ingrid realizes that she’s on the trail of a killer. One she has to stop, before the unthinkable happens. When Michael Wilson appears in Ingrid’s life and investigation, Ingrid is torn. She is attracted to the handsome, enigmatic former marine with sad eyes, a slow drawl and a killer smile. More so than she has ever been in her life, but she doesn’t fully trust his motives. |
 | Stolen Pleasure By Tanya Cienfuegos (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Forbidden Office Romance, Strangers) Nicole was just an underpaid bank teller and today was just another workday. Until a man wearing a suit and a smile that said he knew how good-looking he was arrived to rob the place and hold everyone inside hostage. She knows he’s dangerous, but she just can’t resist his bad boy charm. |
 Theo Exclusive | A Very Big Mistake By Mira Hartley (🌶️🌶️🌶️ Alpha, Enemies to Lovers) Be careful what you wish for. I wanted a man who could dominate me—mind and body. Now, I have him, and I may never escape. Blackmail turns into corporate sabotage when a professional woman’s private life is exposed—and her D/s fantasies bleed dangerously into her reality. Complete at 36k, AVBM is a dark romance novella. Content Warning: AVBM has very explicit sex with MF, FF, MFF, and D/s themes. Surprisingly, there is actually a plot in there too—but unusually for my stories, the plot is the slow-burn on this one. |
 | Rough Morning in the Office By Tanya Cienfuegos (🌶️🌶️🌶️ Billionaire, Forbidden Office Romance) “Penny froze. Lawrence Olsen was conducting the interview? He was the CEO of Olsen Consolidated. She'd seen him on the cover of Forbes and The Economist. The most terminally online conspiracy theorists were convinced that he meant to abduct all of Earth's fertile women to repopulate his extinct alien race. That whole theory radiated jealousy, obviously. He was tall. He had wavy dark hair and icy blue eyes. He had a jawline that made her weak at the knees. Abduction was not necessary.” |

Now, I have him, and I may never escape. Blackmail turns into corporate sabotage when a professional woman’s private life is exposed—and her D/s fantasies bleed dangerously into her reality.
