As someone just trying to live my life, I can tell you, it’s more like a recurring nightmare where dreams get c*ckblocked at every turn.Especially if you’re a supervillain like me.The irony is that I have zero powers, despite coming from purebred villain stock, but try telling that to Big City’s beloved hero, Captain Masculine.This himbo is ruining my research, and if his firepower doesn’t kill me, the sight of him in Lycra surely will. Luckily—or unluckily, in my opinion—my bestie just signed me up for the Bangers dating app and found my perfect match.If this isn’t the start of my villain arc, I don’t know what is.ButchIt’s hard feeling like I have to wear a mask every day—that the only value I bring to the table is the sparkling image others have created for me.Such is the life of being Captain Masculine, Big City’s greatest superhero. This is the existence I was destined for, and I will gladly defend this city against every threat to its people.Except Doctor Antihero.I’ve seen countless villains come and go, but something about Antihero intrigues me more than the usual hero-villain encounters should.It’s because of him that I impulsively signed up for a dating app, hoping a meaningless fling with a local normie will help get my head back in the game. The truth is, what I really want is someone who sees me—the man behind the mask.But that’s a luxury no superhero can afford.---Not All Himbos Wear Capes is an MM romance between a superhero and a villain. Our men find other men in tight supersuits incredibly attractive. Sometimes, they keep these supersuits on while engaging in explicit extracurricular activities with each other (and sometimes they even use bad words!). This is not your kid’s superhero book. This is Sin City and The Boys having a love child with extra spicy Spideypool and is meant for 18+ adults who can handle such things.The Villainous Things series contains standalone books (each with HEAs) that feature interconnected characters and an overarching plot.---*FULL LIST OF Content & TWs can be found in the front of the book and at c-rochelle[dot]com*CONTENT & TROPES:• MM romance• Dual POV• Superheroes/villains• Grumpy/sunshine• Star-crossed lovers + fated mates• Lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers (yup)• Hurt/comfort + found family• MM romance (in case you missed that part)• Plus suspenseful plot + save-the-world epicness for pizazzPOTENTIAL TRIGGERS:• Sweary dialogue• Naughty irreverent humor• Extremely morally gray characters with moments of psychotic ideation• Extra spicy extracurricular activities (see inside book and c-rochelle[dot]com for specifics)• Minor gore in villain lair and during hero/villain battle scenes• Controlling + neglectful parents with some physical (superpowered) abuse• Lack of autonomy + indentured servitude• Restraints (not the fun kind)• Detailed descriptions of humans’ negative effects on coastal wildlife (specifically with pollution and including a seagull autopsy with details of the contents of its stomach) less

SimonI needed to get the hell out of Big City.The only reason I was living in this American wasteland was because my mother insisted I reconcile with my estranged father. That the idea came to her while drunk on the French bubbly should have been my sign to stay right where I belonged.Anywhere but here. Certainly somewhere more fabulous.When an international job opportunity arises, I jump on board.

It’s just a bonus that I’ll be traveling with the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome.Make that muscular, morally gray, and hopefully, my next conquest.What’s a casual fling between coworkers, after all? I’m ready for my next big adventure—far from Big City—so if whatever we’re up to is vaguely illegal, I’ll simply turn the other cheek.It’s not like some superhero is going to swoop in and stop a couple of humans like us.WolfgangI may have orchestrated my villainous parents’ deaths, but that doesn’t mean the crushing weight of my responsibilities is easy to bear.My sister was the only one of my siblings who knew how badly they treated me. The only one I told how much I despise my powers. Now she’s on the run—leaving me to carry this alone.But then I meet him. I may have hired Simon Alarie as my assistant, but it’s instantly apparent he’s much more than that. He’s not only intelligent and business savvy, but fiercely loyal, and the tastiest—most forbidden—little thing I’ve ever seen.Nothing can come of it. Because if I touch him, he dies.That doesn’t stop me from claiming him as mine. Whether or not this normie knows it, every inch of him—every breath he takes—belongs to me. And anyone who thinks otherwise will meet the Hand of Death.---Gentlemen Prefer Villains is an MM romance between a villain and a "normie."

BaltasarIt’s time for me to start pulling my weight in the Suarez clan—to prove I’m worth more than the plays I make on the field or the dirt I dig up on rival families. I want to make Wolfy proud.And not get unalived by Simon.So I volunteered what I had to offer, knowing my infamous genes could be used for uniting two powerful clans in marriage. After all, I’m the only not-gay one in my family, so that alone should entice the super-babes looking to get busy with baby-making... moreBaltasarIt’s time for me to start pulling my weight in the Suarez clan—to prove I’m worth more than the plays I make on the field or the dirt I dig up on rival families.

After all, I’m the only not-gay one in my family, so that alone should entice the super-babes looking to get busy with baby-making.I mean, as long as they don’t ask me to do math or anything.But the last supe I expected Wolfy to match me with was the ice queen hero herself, Dahlia Salah. She's not bad, but her brother is my former Deathball rival, and the only one on the planet who can make me Hulk out with a single snarky word.All I have to do is keep my eye on the prize and ignore this weird tension between Zion and me.I’ve totally got this.ZionI never would have guessed Baltasar Suarez would be the man to lock down my sister.But shady business deals are what make our world go ‘round, and Dahlia sealed her fate when she went up against the leaders of his clan—as if she were destined for our legendary throne instead of me.Not that I've been interested in wearing the crown.Not after everything that happened.Without Deathball to distract me, I spend most of my time keeping my daughter safe and happy, even though her mother is gone and my parents treat her like an outcast.Otherwise, I’ve just been… existing. Until Baltasar showed up, as tempting as ever—reminding me of all I’ve lost, and everything I’ve ever wanted. Everything I can never have.Or can I?My beast—my true supe form—has already decided the villain is ours, so why not remind my backstabbing family that everything under this roof is destined to belong to me?Starting with him.---Putting Out for a Hero is an MM romance between a superhero and a villain.

Gabriel - Theo Coatl was supposed to be just a job. On paper, my twin and I are recent grads moving into the eccentric artist’s mansion for a once-in-a-lifetime internship opportunity. In reality, Dre and I are spies for our clan—a pair of supes known as Shock and Awe who could melt our enemy’s brain as easily as we could extract the intel we were after. Whatever works. But our mark isn’t the only one keeping secrets, and Theo’s proximity is… doing things to me... moreGabriel - Theo Coatl was supposed to be just a job. On paper, my twin and I are recent grads moving into the eccentric artist’s mansion for a once-in-a-lifetime internship opportunity. In reality, Dre and I are spies for our clan—a pair of supes known as Shock and Awe who could melt our enemy’s brain as easily as we could extract the intel we were after. Whatever works. But our mark isn’t the only one keeping secrets, and Theo’s proximity is… doing things to me. This man could fulfill every dark desire I’ve buried beneath the surface. Things even my twin doesn’t know I crave. Too bad exploring my fantasies isn’t part of the plan. Andre Gabe and I may have been sent to this hideous McMansion on a mission, but the instant Theo Coatl sashayed into view, our plans changed. At least, mine did. Wolfy’s original instructions were clear—get in Theo’s head, get the intel, and get out. But I took our eldest brother’s words as more of a suggestion than anything. And my idea is better. Because I see the way Theo looks at my twin—like he wants to eat him alive. Never mind that the man is a potentially deadly being of unknown origins, or that I want to discipline him so badly I can taste it. Gabe is the bait. Theo is our prey. And if I get to play with the brat before we end him, well, what could be the harm in that? Theo It had been so long since I’d enjoyed a proper hunt, I was nearly giddy with excitement. And what delightful prey I’ve found! The twins are perfect. Broody angel Gabriel is pretending to resist my advances, while practically begging me to take what I want. And Andre is playing his cards close with absolute control—which only encourages me to defy him more. As there’s nothing I love more than misbehaving. I do have an agenda here on earth, however—one my interns can legitimately assist me with. So, while I can’t wait to make a pretty pair of puppets out of these unsuspecting humans, I’ve decided to at least try to lure them in slowly. Really savor the experience. Since it will be the death of them in the end. --- Enter the Multi-Vers is an MMM romance between a pair of villains and an alien chaos gremlin in a skinsuit.
