Good Intentions
Elliott Kay - 2011
A midnight run through a cemetery to impress a couple of girls is hardly the stuff of legend, but Alex Carlisle longs to escape the crushing mediocrity of life after high school. Then he stumbles upon the ritual, and the cultists, and two bound and bloodied women. Alex intervenes and the ritual blows up in his face, leaving him bound to them both: Rachel and Lorelei, an angel and a succubus. It’s hardly the sort of challenge a guy can face with dignity when he still lives at home with his mom. Alex never imagined falling for an immortal demon seductress, or that he’d spend his nights dodging her co-workers, her old boss, and every other supernatural freak in Seattle. He never thought a woman like Lorelei could have a rival like Rachel, either. But then, nobody ever said adulthood would be easy.

Stone vs. Viper #1
Alvin Atwater - 2018
Yes, it exists, we just don't know it. There, he's declared the Stone, the main character. One day he must kill the Viper or else, goodbye Earth. This is the comedic tale of a young man vs. cliche anime tropes. Yep, there's nothing like random anime girls falling in love with you...over anything, crazy Yanderes, or that girl with the absurd charisma. But hey, at least he's able to level up, just like the RPGs. Will he find the true purpose of this cruel game or will the anime tropes consume him? The final boss awaits. ~A lover of character development... Warning: Edited by new series editor, Adam Luopa as of September 2019This book contains sexual content, sex scenes, monster girl quest references, sexual humor fit for anime fans, as well as other ridiculous fictitious events found in anime (and ramps up a lot after chapter 7). You have been warned. Not for the faintest of hearts! One more time: it is a comedy not for average mary-joe or morally sound. You have been double-warned and now know what you're getting into!

One man. A whole lot of monsters. Malem is a Breaker. He breaks the minds of beasts, exerting the steel vise of his will over their own, bending them to his wishes.

Doors begin to open for him faster than he thought possible… Note: this book contains harem elements. The main character certainly isn't shy around women, and the magic system is unique in ways you might not expect. Also, the story can get a tad dark in places.
