Publisher's summary

Xander

Big City is supposedly the place where dreams come true. 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.

Butch

It’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. 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.

The Villains Hero Story I didn't know I needed

I have a new favorite series! I'll be reading the rest of the books, but I have things to get done and need the audio versions so I can keep going without stopping. I am so glad someone gave me more of the dirty side of heroes and the not so evil side of villainy. The narrations were perfect and I got through this book faster than I had planned because their voices made the words even better.

Heroes, Villans & MM Romance. Oh My.

This book combines some of my favorite things. Hero V. Villian/ comicbooks and Romance and sex.

Great narrator!

Story started out in a way I thought for sure would be off-putting, but wow! Narrator and story are excellent. Plenty of laughs, characters to love AND characters to despise

Super Smut Fun with Emotional Zing

The narrators did wonderful work bringing this larger than life story to our earbuds. Xanny comes through as the deliciously dominant Zaddy that he is an Butch is equally adorably bumbling and intuitively sweet.

I love that these two form the perfect match despite all differences and challenges thrown their way.

Loved it!

Had the perfect amount of spice. Lots of humor and surprisingly tender, caring, and sweet. “The answer is always yes” <3

Terrible cover art but the book is really fun. A+

I love a truly clever, witty, sexy, entertaining book and NOT ALL HIMBOS WEAR CAPES is just that. There's not enough really good gay novels of any kind. Most of them are just silly. But not "Himbos". This is top notch and hysterical. i can't stop thinking about Doctor Ownit. What a great name for a therapist. I chuckled all the way through the book and I'm starting it again.

Entering and steamy!

I really loved this MM Romance. It’s different from anything you’ll listen too. The narrators were AWESOME and the story line was creative and captivating. If superheroes were real, this would be believable. 10/10 I highly recommend this book. I will be listening again. I can’t wait for the audio to be released for the other books in the series.

Gay Supes

This was such a fun read. I loved the couple, and the world building was fun. What's the difference between a hero and a villain? Who doesn't love men in skintight suits with silly names like Captain Masculine? I hope the other books in the series come to Audible soon.

An ABSOLUTE delight. Witty and hilarious, I was cracking up by the end of the first page.

Audiobook was 5/5. The narrators deserve all the gold stars. They absolutely understood the assignment.

It doesn’t hurt that the spice was hot AF.

Steamy, funny, and just an all around good time

4.25 stars

I don't think I have ever had more completely ridiculous fun while reading a book than I did with this one. This book is bonkers, but in the best possible way. Butch and Xan are totally oblivious in their own ways, and it's hilarious. The banter is top-notch, especially amongst the Suarez siblings. I look forward to seeing more of them in this series. The universe this story is set in is quite intriguing. And let me tell you, the spice was spicing. Butch and Xan definitely have an interesting dynamic, and I'm here for it. They're supposed to be a hero and a villain, but maybe they aren't so different after all. They just fit. If you want a silly book with plenty of spice, then this one is for you.
