The Dove Scale

So you’re ready to read something spicy, but you also want to know what you’re getting into? All of Dove’s books contain some element of dub- or non- con for flavor and/or are of the taboo variety, but there are levels of course. All ratings are included at the top left-hand corner of the book’s cover.

1 Dove: Light dub-con and some gentle kink, potentially between the main love interests. Characters are never in true peril or under genuine duress.

2 Dove: More explicit dub-con, potentially between the main love interests, but more often with an antagonist. An otherwise fluffy story might also get 2 doves due its taboo nature.

3 Dove: Explicit on page dub-con OR non-explicit non-con. The consent might be quite dubious.

4 Dove: Explicit on-page non-con with antagonist. Light peril with some heavier kinks may be present.

5 Dove: Very explicit on-page non-con with antagonist. Characters are having a bad time here. Heavy peril and harder kinks may be present. Guaranteed happy ending. For some series, this happy ending might be edged out until the last book, but it will come 😉

6 Dove: Gratuitous explicit on-page non-con. Heavy peril and harder kinks present. No happy ending.

I’m ready to read! I’m ready to read the VERY taboo 🤫
