We can always use more diversity in romance, right? With that in mind, here are some of the most highly recommended romance novels with disability rep I can find from all over the interwebs. (And no one better recommend Me Before You because I'll go off on a "that's not a romance novel" rant that might not EVER end). Check it out:

A while back, I did a book recommendations list for romance novels where the heroes had strong "touch her and die" vibes. Well, heroes aren't the only ones who can get feral in defense of their loved ones. There are plenty of dangerous women in romance novels, too. Here are some of my faves:
The "Found Family" or “Family of Choice” trope refers to a group of characters who find themselves united in a family-like bond based on shared experiences, mutual understanding, and interpersonal connection. It happens all the time on TV and in the movies. But when it happens in romance novels? *chef's kiss* That's my jam. That said, here are some great examples I've found:
There are few things I love more in romance novels than a strong, silent hero. You know, the kind of hero who doesn't say much, but when he DOES communicate, it's always something important (or hot). So, with that in mind, here are a few of my favorite strong, silent heroes (for now, because I reserve the right to update or change the list at ANY time):
I went looking for romance novels that had totally banana-pants crazy plot elements (you know, for escapism from reality), and the interwebs did not let me down. Here's what I found:
You know that part towards the end of a lot of romance novels where the couple breaks up, everything is bleak, and it looks like they'll never find their way back to each other? Well, that's called the 3rd act breakup, and as it turns out, a lot of readers hate it. Personally, if done well, I think a 3rd act breakup can be super emotional and make for great reading. But that doesn't mean I don't also appreciate the hell out of books that manage to have no 3rd act breakup. So, for all you 3rd act breakup haters out there, here's a list of a few romances that bucked the trend, had their couples talk out their differences, and made it to happily ever after with a minimum amount of angst:
The world is a trash fire right now. My coping mechanism is reading romance novels. But not just ANY romance novels. I'm talking about light, fluffy, low-angst, hilarious romance novels I can escape into and forget about *gestures wildly to EVERYTHING*. So, without further ado, here are some awesome, light romance novels you can escape into:
Romantic Comedy/Contemporary Romance
Publication date: 04/29/2022 Kindle Unlimited: Yes Cliffhanger: No
I expected laughs, sexy times, and characters I'd adore when I picked this one up. I was not let down...
Today I read a review for Neighbors With Benefits, a new release, on Goodreads that called it a great "rom come." I know the reviewer probably meant "rom com", but honestly, I like "rom come" better, because that lets me know the book is a romance that's also funny, AND has spicy times. So, without further ado, here are some of my favorite "rom comes" for your reading enjoyment. You're welcome:
There are a lot of misconceptions out there about self-publishing. And while most of these misconceptions are just so idiotic they're laughable, there are others that are actively hurting authors everyday. Why should this impact you as a reader, you might ask? Well, if your favorite self-published author is being hurt by something, he/she might decide to bail on writing all together and never do it again, and where does that leave you? It leaves you without a lot of great books to read, that's where. So, that said, here are some things authors wished readers knew about self-publishing:
I was looking through the book lists on the site, and discovered a glaring omission. I've never had a sapphic romance list!!! I was SURE I put one on the site last year. I guess I was dreaming that. So, without further ado, here are some awesome sapphic romances that'll brighten your #fridayreads and #weekendreads:
Because life is terrible and we could all use a good laugh, today I bring you bargains on rom coms that you NEED in your life. Enjoy:
Look, as a reader, I'll admit that sometimes I want a light, easy, breezy read, and sometimes I want a book that'll knock me right out of my comfort zone. I don't read dark romance often, but I've read a few great ones, and I gathered a few other recs from readers I trust. So, that said, here are some dark, twisty romances that'll move you out of your reading comfort zone in the best possible ways:
I don't review half as much as I used to. My reasons for that are vast and mysterious (not really...I explained it all right HERE, but "vast and mysterious just sounds better), but that doesn't mean I haven't been reading just as much as I always have. So, that said, here are some great reads I discovered lately that you might want to consider checking out, too:
Last week on Twitter, someone asked for "filthy" romance recs. Some of the recs there were amazing. Others were what I would consider tame at best (cough*Colleen Hoover*cough) and not even romance novels at worst (i.e.: The Fault in Our Stars, Nicholas Sparks, etc.). So, with that in mind, I thought I'd put together a list of the spiciest romance I've read. These are reads that I would consider a 5 chilli pepper rating on my rating scale, which can be found HERE. Grab a glass of ice water and get ready for these SUPER spicy romances:
