Historical Romance
A list of my favorite, heartwarming, romance books.
This is probably one of my favorite clean historical romance books. Absolute recommend.
The Lost Heiress (Signed) – Ladies of the Manor, Book 1
This is a 10 out of 10 series for me! The romance mixed with time-travel was so well written, I could hardly put any of the books down!
Timeless Series Bundle (Books 1-7)
My absolute best enemies to lovers to date! This book is absolute perfection! It's the last book of a series, so I would suggest starting with those just for context but it could be read as a standalone. If I could give it ten stars I would!
A Heart Sufficient (Penn-Leiths Book 4)
This book surprised me because a marriage of convenience/second chance romance is not my favorite trope, but I enjoyed every second of this book. It was charming and sweet while keeping me hooked with the plot twists along the way.
Heart in the Highlands
This is a beautiful marriage of convenience that's inspired by the Vikings. Highly recommend.
Alliance Bride (Legacy of the North Book 1)
I was not prepared for how much I would love this series. The chemistry between the two main characters and the plot twists!! Pure perfection! I definately suggest you start from the first book to the last. This can't really be read as a standalone.
Hearthfire Scottish Romance Series
Before I recommend this book can we give it up for the book covers!! Anyway this is another great series. Alongside the romance I love the relationship between the siblings. I suggest you read from the first to the last.
Hope and Glory Series
The romance mixed with suspense in this book is amazing. I also love that the female character was not waiting for a man to come save her. The way the author wrote her, you could not help but admire her strength and faith despite her disability. 5 st...
Anchor in the Storm (Waves of Freedom Series #2)|Paperback
I love historical romance. It has an enemies to lovers and slow burn trope that is completely believable. The banter between the two main characters is great and I love that romance was not rushed.
A Game of Hearts (The Cartwells Book 1)
Usually, I have a favorite book in a series but honestly I can't pick. Carrie Cotten did not disappoint. Just when I thought it couldn't get better, I picked the next one and it was amazing! A 10 out of 10 series!
The Huntress: Medieval Christian Fiction 1
This book series was a fun ride. I loved the witty banter between the characters and my parts of the books had me laughing out loud. I also loved that while the storylines were familiar, they were not straightforward. 10 out of 10
The Bleeker Street Inquiry Agency Book Series
Mystery Romance
The place where romance meets mystery, intrigue and suspense. Dive to a list of my favorite mystery romance recs
I stumbled on this book while looking for mystery/romance on Goodreads and boy was I shook! The plot twists and chemistry between the two main characters was 10 out 10!!
Convenient Lies (Nutfield Saga Book 1)
Before this book, I had read several books by Rachel Scott McDaniel but this is my absolute favorite to date. The mystery is so well written and I love the romance between the main characters.
The Mobster's Daughter|Paperback
This is my favorite book by Patricia Bradley. I loved that I could not tell the correct suspect until it was revealed at the very end. Great suspense novel.
Fatal Witness|Paperback
This book was absolutely incredible! I literally could not put this book down! It has a nice blend of mystery, intrigue, adventure, and romance.
Against the Tide|Paperback
This book sent me on an emotional rollercoaster. I could feel the main character's joy, pain, and happiness. Finished this in one day. A side note, this book is a prequel to the O'Malley series.
Danger in the Shadows (O'Malley Series Prequel)|Paperback
This series is absolutely amazing. It comes after the Shadows of England series but you don't need to read the previous series to understand the storyline. I love all main characters and how we get see their different worlds in each of books. The rom...
The Codebreakers (3 book series) Kindle Edition
This is my favorite series by Rebecca Connolly. I loved how she mixed romance with the life of a spy. Each book could be read as a standalone but its best enjoyed in order.
The London League (6 book series) Kindle Edition
Amazing amazing series!! Lynette Eason knows how to keep you constantly hooked! Every time I thought I'd figured the suspect, she throws another bomb. Highly recommend!
Elite Guardians by Lynette Eason
As soon as I started the first book in this series, I knew I'd found my new favorite author. And every book after that just confirmed my thoughts. I love the mystery, suspense, and romance in all the books.
Pressley-Coombes Book Series
Lynette Eason teamed up with Kelly Underwood to bring out this masterpiece. Its the third book in the series but my favorite by far. I also loved the forced proximity/billionaire trope. Highly recommend.
Defending Honor: An Elite Guardians Novel
If you enjoy mystery, romance, and treasure hunting, this series is for you. The plot, setting, and characters were all amazing. While you do not have to read them in order, it is best to start from the beginning for a more enjoyable experience.
The Secrets of the Isles Book Series
This book was absolutely incredible. The mystery had me hooked and the romance was captivating. Definitely on my list of rereads.
Walking on Hidden Wings - Autographed Paperback
The mystery in this book is top tier especially till the end. I could hardly put this book down. I also loved the chemistry between the main characters it was delightful. Ten out of ten read for me.
Facing the Enemy book by Paige Edwards
Romantasy
Started a new genre this year, and so far I'm enjoying the ride
This was my first romantasy series and it didn't disappoint one bit. It was one of those cases where the first book is good and you don't think the next one we'll top it but the second was just as good of not better than the first. I can't wait for t...
Esperance book by Heather Frost
This is another romantasy series that is unfortunately incomplete. Its action packed and full of twists and cliffhangers that will keep you guessing
Children of Ash book by Allison Anderson
This is one the best duologies I've read to date. We have hidden identities, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, magic, and a swoon worthy romance
Bounty Hunter: The Black Tulip... book
This trilogy was a wild ride. It has an arranged marriage with captor/captive and fae/ human romance. Great read
The Immortal Fae King Book Series
This duology was great. Its a slow burn where he falls first. Its one of those books where you wonder whether the MMC is redeemable and FMC who believes he can change.
Enchanted Deceptions Duology - Signed Paperbacks
