This year marks the 10th anniversary of my Dark Romance Advent Calendar!
AND we decided it’s time we gave the Advent Calendar a new home!
For the past decade, I’ve hosted this special event right here on my author website, bringing dark romance readers and authors together every December for 25 days of books, giveaways and surprises.
But after ten wonderful years, I decided it’s time to give the Advent Calendar a special place of its own!
I’m excited to announce that the Dark Romance Advent Calendar 2026 is moving to darkromancebookblast.com, a brand-new platform I’ve created to bring dark romance readers and authors together.
And what better way to launch Dark Romance Book Blast than with the event that started it all?
From 1–25 December 2026, readers will unwrap a new selection of dark romance treats from participating authors—25 days packed with deliciously dark reads and surprises!
Same Advent Calendar. New home. More dark romance!
Join us at darkromancebookblast.com and celebrate our 10th anniversary with us!

What Is the Reverse Harem Advent Calendar?
The Advent Calendar runs from 1–25 December each year. Every day, one author delivers an original reverse harem snippet — new fiction written exclusively for this event.
Readers subscribe and receive each snippet directly in their inbox. No algorithms. No feeds to scroll. Just your morning coffee and a story that earns its content warnings.
The genre spans dark romance, why-choose, BDSM, mafia romance, and contemporary reverse harem. What every snippet shares: heat, intent, and zero apology.
2026: The 10th Anniversary Edition
This year we celebrate ten years of indulgence — and the 2026 calendar reflects it.
Expect snippets that go further, burn darker, and linger longer. Submissions for the 10th Anniversary Advent Calendar are now open.
For Authors
If you write reverse harem, dark romance, or why-choose fiction and want to reach an audience that’s been here since the beginning — this is your calendar.
