My absolute favorites
Not gonna lie, these romance books have my heart, and I don't even read this genre usually
I absolutely loved this book!! I've read only fantasy books for the past 2 years and this book was the perfect palate cleanser 🫶🏻 Also my first ever Ali Hazelwood book, the perfect start
Check & Mate
This book is toxic, but you know what? I love beeing shocked 🤣 If you don't like the cheating trope or second change romance, this might not be for you. HOWEVER, I usually hate those tropes too, but really loved this book, so idk??
Magnolia Parks (Collector's Edition: Jessa's Version)
I really really liked this trope of radio show love, and the vibes were AMAZING. This was cute, and fast paced and I loved it soo so much. Can't wait for the second one
First-Time Caller
This was... kinky and messy and weirdly interesting. For someone who doesn't usually like spice scenes in books, this one right here might've changed my opinion
Deep End
This is Tarah DeWitt’s best book hands down🥹 The setting is perfect, the characters were fully fleshed-out and relatable, and at times I kind of wanted to jump right into the book. please please go read it for your own sake
Left of Forever: A Spunes Novel
This is the perfect cozy read for fall! This couple didn’t really remind me of any of the couples from Gilmore Girls, but the small town bed & breakfast the FMC was running definitely did! I also loved that it was set in the 90s! I’m a sucker for...
If It Makes You Happy
This was one of those books where I read the last word on the last page, closed the book and had to take a deep breath because my heart felt like it was going to burst.
Soul Searching: A Sweetwater Peak Novel
You could argue that this book is actually historical fiction, and not romance, and you would be right in some manner. But for me, this book is the ultimate romance book, with the greatest love story ever written
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: A Novel
I mean come onnnn this is the blueprint. what are you doing if you didn't read this one yet??
Pride and Prejudice
Do you love love? Me too! Especially when it’s messy and Minnesotan. So pre-order this book and love it as much as I did
The Night We Met (Deluxe Edition)
From the very first sentence, this book had me laughing my head off. A soap maker teams up with her neighbor, who just happens to be a vampire, to unravel a conspiracy to set zombies loose on the world. LOVE LOVE LOVE
Zomromcom
this book is so real and raw and emotional 😭
ashley poston writes grief so realistically and deeply like who hurt you girl? and these characters MY GOD…
The Seven Year Slip
I am absolutely, positively, unequivocally obsessed!!!! Once I picked this up, I couldn’t put it down! I honestly haven’t felt this obsessed about a book in a while.
Not Another Love Song
This is the first book I have read by Jessica Joyce and I LOVED IT. I need to now read “You, With a View”. Technically, this is Jessica’s first book but she set it aside for ages dissatisfied with it until inspiration struck some time after she relea...
The Ex Vows
This book is the perfect escape. I shrugged off my cares and worries for a few days and melted into this story. The storyline is clear cut and the writing is flawless.
Some sensitive issues, such as body image, self-love, and grief, are explored wi...
The Love Haters: A Novel
Slow Burn Summer had me kicking my feet like a teenager with a crush. This story was equal parts swoony and smart. It’s the kind of romance that sneaks up on you and refuses to let go. I laughed, I sighed, I yelled at the characters (lovingly), and n...
