Here’s a short list of F/F novels (>50k words, some over 100k) with dark romance elements (that is, with abusive romantic relationships but with a happy ever after or happy for now ending).

Review – The Fear
This story was intensely compelling and I’m glad I read it. If you enjoy dysfunctional sapphics like I do and if you don’t mind reading a pandemic horror right now, you should give it a try.
Review – Women in Gray
A dark F/F domestic/psychological thriller where damaged people do awful things to each other. It was soooo good.
Review – Lucky 7 [Lucky Breaks #1]
Lucky 7 by Rae D. Magdon
Fun, action-packed sci-fi heist
poc x poc butch/femme enemies to lovers
secrets, lies, metaverse
I loved it!
Review – The Unbroken [Magic of the Lost #1]
Messy infuriating disaster sapphics
destabilising colonialism
in a North African-inspired setting
Review – Carmilla and Laura
5/5 would bang the creepy chick with the white nightdress and bloodied face.
