stand alone books
escape with these raunchy reads
arguably Meghan Quinn's best book and that is saying a LOT. fake dating, real chemistry, and the kind of banter that makes you forget you have responsibilities.
A Not So Meet Cute
wow wow wow 🔥 the tension in this one is unreal. I genuinely could not put it down.
So Not Meant To Be
a HOT boss romance that delivers exactly what it promises. Vi Keeland knows what she's doing and it shows on every page.
Bossman
opposites attract with two people who genuinely cannot stand each other — until they can. the slow burn is everything.
Egomaniac
his book was WILD. a catholic father and a boarding school student (she's legal!) — the forbidden tension is through the roof. not for the faint of heart.
Lessons in Sin
a bookworm falling for a jock is a trope I will never get tired of and this one executes it perfectly.
The Locker Room
friends to lovers done RIGHT. the payoff in this one is so satisfying after all that buildup.
A Long Time Coming
a professional baseball player as a love interest is apparently my weakness and I have zero regrets about it.
Three Strikes and You're Mine
workplace romance with all the tension that comes with mixing business and feelings. the push and pull is addictive.
Mr. Big Shot
best friends to lovers is already my favorite trope but when it's written THIS well it hits different.
Not So Nice Guy
enemies to lovers where they are legitimately so annoying to each other and it's so fun to watch it fall apart.
Anything You Can Do
fake dating + billionaire = a combo that should not work as well as it does. I was fully invested from page one.
The Last Eligible Billionaire
fake marriage AND a couples summer camp?? the premise alone had me. the execution delivered.
Till Summer Do Us Part
I truly cannot remember what this one is about because I read it in one sitting and my brain erased itself after. previous me gave it five stars so trust the process.
The Stopover
series
why stop at one book?
never knew I could be into faeries but here we are. this series rewired my entire brain and I emerged a different person. start here and clear your calendar.
A Court of Thorns and Roses
this is the series that got me into reading. it also accidentally got me into hockey so I have a lot of feelings about it. essential.
off-campus series
another hockey romance and it is STEAMY. the sports romance pipeline is real and I have no regrets about falling into it.
The Agitators Series
I read this series embarrassingly fast. grumpy hero, sunshine love interest, the whole thing. could not stop.
The Grumpy Devils
I feel like I shouldn't keep using the fire emoji but 🔥🔥🔥🔥. the Mr. series just gets it.
Mr. Series
super possessive alpha men are usually a hard no from me but in book form? yes please. this series had me hooked in a way I did not expect.
Twisted
I hate billionaires but I love these — the family owns an amusement park like Disneyland and the whole setup is so fun. a rare billionaire romance win.
Dreamland Billionaires
Formula 1 romance with all the speed and drama you'd want. if you've been sucked into F1 content lately this series was made for you.
Dirty Air Series
TL Swan is an auto-read for me. this series hits every button — wealthy men, high stakes, and a whole lot of tension at 30,000 feet.
The Miles High Club
please no grumpy men irl but in books? YESSS. the second I tell myself I'm tired of this trope a book like this comes along.
The Grumpy Devils
sports romance series with genuinely sweet characters AND the steam. the combination is rare and this series nails it every time.
Windy City Series
every single book in this series is perfection. I'm not exaggerating. start with the first one and you will read them all back to back.
Chestnut Springs series
summer lovin' in the best possible way. beach reads that actually deliver on the romance.
The Summer Series
the trope cocktail in this one is just right. 🔥 is all I'll say.
Three BFFs and a Wedding series
takes place at the same school as "the deal" series which is a fun little crossover for those of us who are fully unhinged about fictional college campuses.
Campus Diaries series
get kindle unlimited
KU is my favorite. It has so many books to choose from at a low monthly price!
If you're going to read half the books on this list (and you will) Kindle Unlimited pays for itself immediately. one low monthly price, unlimited reads. it's genuinely the best deal in book-reading.
