While I’ve only read one of Samantha Young’s books before, I was really interested in picking up her newest release. It’s a fun and enjoyable romance with the grumpy sunshine trope that many will love. The Love Plot follows Star, a professional costume character and line sitter who values her freedom in life. When she’s working as a princess for a little girl’s birthday party, she meets her grumpy uncle and doesn’t expect for him to propose they fake date.
The Best Witch Romance Books You Need to Read
If you’re looking for the best witch romance books to read, then this is the book list for you! There’s nothing better than curling up with a cozy romance book during the fall. While paranormal romance books are a great option for this time of year, witchy romance books are becoming really popular — and for good reason!
Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
After hearing about Fourth Wing, I wasn’t sure if it was going to be a book for me. With so much hype surrounding it, I didn’t want it to fall flat. But, a friend told me I would love it and she was so right! I absolutely loved every minute of this book! Fourth Wing follows Violet, who has been training to enter into the Scribe Quadrant.
The Love Wager by Lynn Painter
Since the day I picked up Lynn Painter’s debut book, I’ve waited patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for her next release. The Love Wager is another fantastic five star read from Lynn — I adored every minute of it. The Love Wager follows Hallie, who has a one night stand after working the bar at a wedding.
Secretly Yours by Tessa Bailey
When Tessa Bailey releases a new book, I’m always excited to read it! Secretly Yours is another great rom-com from Tessa. While it’s not my absolute favourite, it’s still a fun and enjoyable book that I would recommend! Secretly Yours is the first in a new romantic comedy duology. It follows Hallie, who falls in love with Julian at the age of fourteen after an almost kiss.
Kit McBride Gets a Wife by Amy Barry
After hearing several friends talk about this book, I decided to pick it up. I am so glad I did because it is such a fun and entertaining romance! Kit McBride Gets a Wife is a western romance. It follows Junebug, who decides to put in a request for a mail order bride for her brother Kit. What she doesn’t expect is a mix-up with the ad answer.
Drunk on Love by Jasmine Guillory
After reading The Wedding Date, I’ve been a fan of Jasmine Guillory’s books. Her most recent release is just as fun as her other books — I really enjoyed it! Drunk on Love follows Margot who has an adorable meet-cute with Luke at a bar.
Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute by Talia Hibbert
After reading Get a Life, Chloe Brown and the other books in the Brown Sisters series, I fell in love with Talia Hibbert’s stories. I’ve been patiently waiting for the release of her young adult debut. While I enjoyed it, I didn’t love it as much as I thought I would.
The Do-Over by Lynn Painter
After reading Lynn Painter’s debut, I’ve been patiently waiting for her next young adult book to release. While I wasn’t sure it could live up to my expectations, it exceeded them. I absolutely loved this book! The Do-Over follows Emilie, who wakes up on Valentine’s Day with a plan to have the best day.
Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter
There’s nothing better than a hilarious young adult rom-com. Better Than the Movies is all that and more — and is definitely one of my all-time favourite books. Better Than the Movies follows Liz, who has a constant rivalry with her neighbour Wes. When senior year roles around, her childhood crush Michael moves back to town. To get Michael to ask her to prom, she needs Wes’ help.
Begin Again by Emma Lord
Since Emma Lord’s debut, I’ve started each year reading her newest release. Begin Again is a really sweet contemporary romance that I really enjoyed. While Tweet Cute is still my favourite, Begin Again is a solid read.
Exes and O’s by Amy Lea
After reading Set on You last year, I really didn’t think Amy Lea’s next book could top it. I’m so glad I was wrong — because Exes and O’s is fantastic and it happens to be my first five star read of the year! Exes and O’s is the second book in The Influencer series. While it is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.
