Here are all of my 5 star romance reads in 2024, as of May!
Y'all, this is super spicy. Proceed with caution.

This was a reread - 5 stars the second time around too!
The Fake Out by Stephanie Archer (Vancouver)
This was my first book by this author and I loved it! I'm looking forward to more.
Against The Rules by Brittany Kelley (Wilmington)
This absolutely lived up to the hype.
Learn Your Lesson: A Single Dad Hockey Romance
I did not anticipate loving a book with a golf playing MMC, but here we are.
Fangirl Down: A Novel (Big Shots Book 1)
This was another reread. Sometimes you need something reliable to get over a series of DNFs.
Runaway Girl: A Novel (The Girl Series Book 2)
I think this was the 3rd time I read this book. I've loved it every time.
By a Thread by Lucy Score
🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
Poisonous Kiss: A Dark Mafia Arranged Marriage
Kyra became an autobuy author for me after I read this one.
Failure to Match: An Enemies to Lovers Romance
And with this book, my trip down the OV rabbit hole began.
Pack Darling Part One (Reverse Harem Omegaverse)
Big time "touch her and die" vibes with this one.
Scheme: An On The Shelf Omegaverse Romance
This book was ridiculous and I loved every word.
Caught on Camera: A Spicy Fake Dating Romance
Every book in this series is unhinged. Hans is my favorite of the series.
Alliance Series by SJ Tilly
This is dark. Read the trigger warnings.
Lights Out: Into Darkness Trilogy
READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS. This is not for everyone.
Stand and Defend (Lakes Hockey Series Book 4)
Still in my hockey romance era.
Possessive Heart (Starlight Cove Book 5)
The premise of this was bonkers, but I loved it.
P.S. You're Intolerable (The Harder They Fall)
Yet another reread to start off the year!
The Player (The Game Maker Book 3)
I love interconnected books about a family. This one was so good!
Head Over Heels - Wilder Family Book 2
I think I reread this book every year. Do yourself a favor and read this whole series.
Speakeasy (True North: Small Town Romance Book 5)
This was so unexpectedly good!
Pretty Things On Shelves: A Second Chance Romance
I was so excited to read this and see it was first in a new series!
Only in Your Dreams: Oakwood Bay Series
Marni Mann is a pretty new to me author. I'm enjoying everything I've picked up so far!
The Playboy (Spade Hotel Series Book 1)
Enemies to lovers + mafia? Yes, please.
Sinners Consumed: Sinners Anonymous Book 3
My first 5 star read of 2024!
Hothead by Stella Rhys
Isiah is simply the sweetest, loveliest MMC I've read in a long ass time. These two were a delight to read! I read this in one sitting and can't wait to go back and read it again.
Play Along (Windy City Series Book 4)
Oh, how I loved this! Little wasp as a pet name? I'm dead.
Beautiful Beast: Age Gap Mafia Romance Book 1
I feel like we've been waiting forever for Jaxson's story. I've loved every book in this series and this was no exception. The way the two of them understood one another! They were so thoughtful, considerate, and great communicators! LOVE!
Fall With Me (Playing For Keeps Book 4)
Nash was utterly swoon-worthy. He worked hard to win over his lady and I loved reading every word.
Meant For Love: A billionaire romance (Book 3)
If you like a romance where the characters have great banter, and the MMC spoils his love rotten, you will love The Arrangement as much as I did!
The Arrangement
Nash is so swoony and I adore Livia. Both of their meet cutes are adorable!
Golden Touch
Loved this! If I could, I'd ding it for .5 stars because of the lack of groveling! 5 stars
Rebel Heart: A Second Chance, Enemies to Lovers
SO GOOD. Poor Matteo was down BAD for his wife. Check trigger warnings!
His Tesoro: Age Gap Mafia Romance
This was absolutely adorable! The banter is off the charts and the chemistry/tension is unmatched. I loved every word.
Resting Grump Face: Enemies to Lovers
I am so grateful that someone recced this book because I probably wouldn't have chosen it myself. It took a minute for me to warm up to Chase, but I nearly cried a million times at how much he loved Cass and how he cared for her. Also, he has a filth...
Seeing Red
This was so good. So, so good. The mental health rep was spot on, especially the PPD. My heart hurt reading it - I've never been to happy to read an HEA.
What Saves Us: Small Town Mom Romance
This author's books are hit or miss for me, and this one was a HIT in all caps. I'm already enchanted by this family! The miscommunication in this story was trash, but the relationship between the main characters (and the spice!) more than made up fo...
