Quiz: Share your spicy TBR vibes to find the lingerie for your main character era

Dark romance or slow burn? Cowboy or fae? Your smut faves say exactly what you should be wearing for IRL spice. Take our quiz to find out.

Your TBR pile knows things about you, darling. Dark things. Delicious things. 

Eight questions. Five heroines. One lingerie destiny. Let's find out what your spicy reading habits say about what you should be wearing when you're not reading.

1. It's 10pm on a Friday. Where are you?

A) In the bath, half-submerged, wine in hand, reading something that's giving you chest feelings you didn't consent to.

B) In the gym. You've had a punishing week and you need to hit something. The gains and the chapter waiting at home are equally motivating.

C) On the ice rink, or wishing you were. You don't stop moving until your body makes you.

D) Sorting out someone else's chaos, making it look effortless, and wondering when someone is going to make your life look effortless for a change.

E) Somewhere you probably shouldn't be, doing something you'll definitely be staring at the ceiling about later.

2. Which slow-burn setup absolutely destroys you?

A) When they've been circling each other for so long, so painfully long, that when it finally happens it feels like the whole world exhales.

B) When she doesn't know he's already decided she's his—and he's been quietly, methodically making himself indispensable to her life.

C) When they're supposed to hate each other, they're genuinely trying to hate each other, and every interaction only makes it worse.

D) When the banter is so sharp and so loaded that you're reading it twice because you can't believe they haven't kissed yet.

E) When the tension lives entirely in what's not being said. The almost-touches. The loaded glances. The restraint that costs something.

3. Your ideal power dynamic in a romance is...

A) Two people who are both a little feral and a lot devoted. Nobody's taming anybody. They're ruining each other equally and willingly.

B) He's possessive in a way that should alarm you but somehow doesn't. She holds her own anyway, and he loves her for it.

C) Equal footing, constant competition, explosive chemistry. Neither of them will admit it first.

D) He thinks he's in control. She lets him think that. Neither of them is right.

E) She knows exactly what she wants and she goes after it. He's not ready for her, but he's about to be.

4. What colour do you reach for when you want to feel like a fucking goddess (literally)?

A) Deep jewel tones. Midnight blue, amethyst, the kind of rich darkness that feels like the inside of something beautiful and dangerous.

B) Black. Always black. Or deep red. Nothing else is worth your time.

C) Bright, clean, electric. A sharp cobalt or a fierce emerald—you want to be seen.

D) Warm neutrals and champagne tones. Effortless, polished, deceptively soft.

E) Dark or distressed. Something with an edge. Worn leather tones, charcoal, midnight—you want to look like a tempting warning.

5. Pick the scene setup that has you reading with your feet kicking in the air and your jaw on the floor:

A) A firelit room, a dangerous man who has already decided she's his, and a conversation that is very clearly not just a conversation.

B) The lights go out. Something shifts. They both know exactly where this is going and neither of them is going to stop it.

C) Locker rooms, hotel rooms, post-match tension that's been building since the first time they clapped eyes on each other and hated themselves for it.

D) Forced proximity. One bed optional but spiritually mandatory. The banter has officially crossed a line.

E) Something that starts as a game—a dare, a bet, a bluff—and ends with nobody remembering who started it.

6. What's the quality you most want your love interest to have?

A) Ancient, devastating loyalty. The kind that predates logic and will survive anything.

B) Quiet, intense attention. He notices everything. He remembers everything. She is, terrifyingly, everything.

C) Competitiveness that's really just foreplay. He's trying to beat her. She's going to let him try.

D) A mouth that gets him into trouble constantly and eyes that show you he knows it.

E) Protectiveness that verges on unhinged. She's safe with him. Whether she wanted to be is beside the point.

7. Your fantasy setting is...

A) A world that shouldn't exist, with rules that don't apply to anyone sensible, and someone who would defy all of them for you.

B) A perfectly ordinary city apartment at 2am. The extraordinary part is what's happening inside it.

C) An arena. A stadium. Anywhere the stakes are high and the crowd doesn't know the real match being played.

D) A small town you had no intention of falling in love with—or anyone in it.

E) Somewhere dark and charged and slightly gothic. An old house. The edge of something. Somewhere the rules are negotiable.

8. What does your ideal smut self-care evening look like?

A) Candles, silk pillowcase, a glass of something cold, and a story that makes you feel everything.

B) Dark room, headphones in, fully committed to being consumed by whatever chaos you've invited in tonight.

C) Post-workout glow, favourite playlist, endorphins and tension dissolving simultaneously.

D) Utterly indulgent. Good food, good wine, an outfit you put on just for yourself. A good book for dessert.

E) Something slightly unpredictable. A little risk. A little thrill. You like not quite knowing how this evening ends.

Your results

I’ve added some recommendations from Lovehoney based on your main character vibe, darling. All LWcL members get 20% off across the site using LADIESWHOLIT at checkout–enjoy.

Mostly As - Deep magic meets wild devotion, like Feyre Archeron

You're drawn to worlds that pull you under, to love stories that feel like destiny misbehaving, to tension that lives in the bones. You want devotion that's almost frightening in its depth, magic in the ordinary, and an ending that costs something.

Your main character lingerie vibe: Think deep plum, midnight blue or forest green. Rich satin or draped lace. Something with a corset detail or an unexpected cut that makes you feel like you belong to a world slightly more interesting than this one. You're not trying to be pretty—you're trying to feel powerful.

Your Lovehoney match: Lovehoney Erotic Allure Plum Crotchless Body

Mostly Bs - The best possible chaos energy, like Aly Cappellucci

You want intensity, but you want it wrapped in chemistry and banter and the kind of heat that catches you off guard. You're strong—physically, emotionally, uncompromisingly—and you want someone who doesn't flinch at that. You like a little edge with your desire and you have absolutely zero time for lukewarm.

Your main character lingerie vibe: Black. Deep red. Mesh over matte. Something with attitude and zero apologies. A bodysuit that you'd wear to win an argument in. Strappy, deliberate, built for someone who lifts.

Your Lovehoney match: Oh La La Cheri Black Underwired Strappy Harness Teddy

Mostly Cs - Fierce, bright and terminally competitive, like Stassie Allen

You want rivals and sparks and the absolute agony of wanting someone you're also trying to beat. Your smut needs tension you can feel in your teeth, banter that's basically extended foreplay, and a payoff that was worth every excruciating minute of waiting. You're not soft—you're electric.

Your main character lingerie vibe: Cobalt, white, emerald. Clean lines. Something you can move freely in that is very much not athletic. A bralette combo that looks effortless. You dress for the person in the mirror first.

Your Lovehoney match: Oh La La Cheri Cherry Embroidered Green Underwired Bra Set

Mostly Ds - Effortless on the outside, feral on the inside, like Summer Hamilton

You have the impeccable exterior of someone who has everything under control and the inner monologue of someone who is absolutely not fine whenever he's in the room. You like warmth and wit and a man who surprises you. You read slow burns because you have the patience to enjoy them and the yearn-drive to make it to the end.

Your main character lingerie vibe: Champagne, ivory, warm blush. Tailored lace. The kind of set that looks effortless and costs a story. Something with just enough detail to reward closer attention. A matching set that makes it clear you did this with every intention of driving him wild.

Your Lovehoney match: Roma Lace Essentials Pink Eyelash Lace Cami Set

Mostly Es - Quiet steel, private fire, like Violent Sorrengail

You're not loud about it, but you're completely uncompromising. You want a story with stakes—real ones—and a love interest who respects the dangerous version of you as much as the tender one. You read for intensity and stay for the characters who surprise you. You're prepared for whatever comes next.

Your main character lingerie vibe: Depth over decoration: deep navy, midnight tones, the kind of piece that moves with you and catches the light when it wants to. Something with softness on the surface and detail where it counts—a whisper of lace at the edge, a neckline that drapes rather than declares.

Your Lovehoney match: Lovehoney Dark Orchid Navy Satin and Lace Chemise
