Latest Top Recommendations
With all the timeless enchantment of a modern fairy tale, Emma Chase weaves another delightfully romantic royal affair as we return to Wessco to finally learn how a young Queen Lenora found the man of her dreams. We’ve only known her as the controlling but well-meaning grandmother figure to Princes Nicholas and Henry, but from the few and scattered references to her own past throughout the series, we’ve always known her own love story must have been remarkable. Part sweeping romance, part tale of a young woman defying conventions to carve her own legacy, Lenora’s story was everything I hoped it would be and much, much more.
We’ve all fallen head over heels for a sexy rockstar romance at one point or another, but given the ‘ultimate fantasy’ element of the genre, it is not all too common for these stories to veer off course too much and REALLY explore the emotional cost of the rockstar lifestyle, too, or how fame can become synonymous with addiction, isolation, and mental illness. Yet that is exactly what we get as we return to Kristen Callihan’s VIP series with the story of a larger-than-life hero whose demons constantly threaten to bring him down, and a heroine who hides her own loneliness behind a smile. But, as one would expect from this brilliant author, this is far from a bleak book. It’s a beautiful love story, first and foremost, and only secondly, a powerful tale of two people finding acceptance within themselves and with one another.
This book has completely stolen my heart. Scarlett Peckham’s voice is truly exquisite—polished, incisive, yet tenderly rich in emotions—and I fell in love with her radiant prose within a matter of pages. She hits all the classic historical romance buttons—the Duke in need of a wife, the indomitable heroine set on preserving her independence, a marriage of convenience that grows into something more—but injects the story with a variety of human emotions which turn it into something rare and breathtaking. One of the most romantic tales of love and devotion I’ve ever come across, laced with moments both heartbreakingly tragic and joyous, this is a book I wish I could read for the first time over and over again.
Samantha Young’s latest romance is the quintessential escapist read—a flirty, funny, yet incredibly emotionally resonant love story that sinks its hooks into your heart and makes you both laugh and cry. What starts off as a light-hearted, banter-filled battle of wits quickly evolves into a touching story about love, connection, and new beginnings, turning an enemies-to-lovers trope with an unrequited love twist into so much more.
Part romance, part crime novel, this pacy, high-octane page-turner has everything we’ve come to expect from a J.R. Ward novel—a thick plot, suspense, a beautiful romance, well fleshed-out characters—and as we are pulled into the heroic and dangerous world of firefighters, it almost feels like we’re watching an action blockbuster unfolding in our heads.
Riley Hart and Christina Lee’s latest collaboration is every bit as beautiful as I’ve come to expect from this excellent duo, and from the very first page, I was besotted. A tender story of love that both heals and breaks the heart, and told through two very different narratives, braided together, but separated in time—one set in the present, and the other told through letters from many years before—a novel like this gives voice to all the forgotten love stories that could not be, and all the ones that wouldn’t have been possible had times not changed. I loved this book so much, I never wanted it to end.
Tessa Bailey brings her smooth-as-silk writing style and an engaging cast of characters to a runaway-bride scenario in this red-hot follow up to the dazzling Getaway Girl, and if you’re anything like me and go weak at the knees at the mere mention of a dirty-talking alpha hero falling for the ‘good girl’, you’ll lose your mind over this book. The tale of a pampered Southern belle running away from her picture-perfect life in order to find herself, only to end up falling for a man her parents would never approve of, this is the kind of book you read in one enraptured sitting. And then wonder how soon you can read it again.
Ah, the sweet longing, the angst, the melancholy heartache of a tale of unrequited love! Whenever I catch scent of such a story, I go a little weak at the knees, but having one of my favourite authors writing one was downright impossible to resist. We return to Lark Cove with the heartwarming tale of a timid young woman who has spent her entire adult life secretly crushing on a man who’s never even noticed her, and when he finally does, he doesn’t remember it the next day. Set against the romantic backdrop of small-town Montana, this tender romance left me with the proverbial hearts in my eyes, knowing I’d be missing these characters once their story was over.
