Best Romantic Authors 2020 (so far!)
I've had a lot more time than I expected to have, and have been able to get through some of my book list. I've found some absolutely incredible authors who I hadn't heard of/read before (during my usual lifestyle, internet and bookstores sadly feature less than I'd like), and here are some of my new favourites:
1. Avery Flynn - Award-winning author of contemporary romance and romantic suspense, her books are light and breezy, but heartfelt and intriguing, providing the perfect romance.
Personal favourites:
2. R. S. Grey - I'll admit that I've absolutely shot through most of Ms. Grey's novels. A USA Today best-selling author with seven #1 best-selling romantic comedies, she absolutely hooks you in and keeps you reading. Highly, highly recommended.
Personal favourites:
3. Mimi Jean Pamfiloff - Intriguing, quick-paced, and steamy romances that you'll fly through and want more, definitely one to watch!
Personal favourite:
4. Cindi Madsen - I picked up one of her romance novels earlier in the year and got distracted, but tried again with one of her Young Adult romances and fell in love.
Personal favourite:
5. Sally Thorne - I picked up The Hating Game on the train down to my new house, and I just couldn't stop reading. I actually got to the hotel (night before the move in) and just kept reading.
Personal favourite:
When I find an author I like, I generally end up going through their entire works and just get stuck on them for days.

Eight Romance Novel Series To Read Right Now
I love romance series
for a few reasons. One, we get more romance novels to read, and that's always a
win. Two, I love falling in love with characters in one book who aren't the
main characters and see the progression in all of the involved cast. It's like
looking at a microcosm of a perfect world. So, it's time for a list of some of
my favourite romance series!
To make things easier,
I've chosen one romance novel per series, not necessarily my favourite one in
that series.

let us know your favourite romance series!
1. Butterface (Hartigan
Series) by Avery Flynn
It’s true. I’m not what most people would call
“pretty” and, well, high school was rough. Fast forward ten years and life is
good…
Until a bunch of jerks think it’s hilarious to put the
“butterface” (AKA me) on a wedding Kiss Cam with the hottest guy ever—and that
old humiliation hits hard.
I recognize him immediately. The sexiest cop in
Waterbury and totally out of my league.
But then he kisses me. And we totally forget the room,
the crowd, everything.
Then he tells everyone we’ve been dating for months.
Soon everything starts to feel too real, from adorable
fights over “necessary” tools to fix my broken porch to surviving a
free-for-all dinner with his six siblings to picking up where our last kiss
left off.
But there’s something he’s not telling me about why
he’s really hanging around, and I’m pretty sure it has to do with my
mob-connected brothers.
Because this is not a make-over story, and Cinderella
is only a fairy tale…

2. Boy Meets Girl (Boy Series) by Meg Cabot
Meet Kate Mackenzie. She: works for the T.O.D. (short for TyrannicalOffice
Despot, also known as Amy Jenkins, Director of the Human Resources Division at
the New York
Journal); is sleeping on the couch because her boyfriend of ten
years refuses to commit; can't find an affordable studio apartment anywhere in
New York City; thinks things can't get any worse.
They can. Because: the T.O.D. is making her fire the most popular employee
in the paper's senior staff dining room; that employee is now suing Kate for
wrongful termination, and now Kate has to give a deposition in front of Mitch
Hertzog, the scion of one of Manhattan's wealthiest law families, who embraces
everything Kate most despises ... but also happens to have a nice smile and a
killer bod.
The last thing anybody -- least of all Kate Mackenzie
-- expects to find in a legal arbitration is love. But that's the kind of thing
that can happen when ... Boy Meets Girl.

his royal blood with passion's fire...impelling virile Stefan Barany to take in

5. Seize The Night (Dark-Hunter Series) by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Valerius isn't a popular Dark-Hunter - he's a Roman,
which means that the largely Greek Hunters have a major grudge against him and
his civilization for superceding them. To make things worse, he's very
conscious of his aristocratic background and breeding. So it serves him right
when he runs into Tabitha Devereaux. She's sassy, sexy, and completely
unwilling to take him seriously. (Not to mention Tabitha is also the
sister-in-law of Kyrian, a former Dark-Hunter and Val's mortal enemy.)
What Tabitha does take seriously is hunting and
killing vampires-and soon she and Val have to grapple with the deadliest of all
Daimons - one who's managed to come back from the dead, and one who holds a
serious grudge against both of them. To win against evil, Val will have to
loosen up, learn to trust, and put everything on the line to protect a man he
hates and a woman who drives him nuts.

7. Royally Endowed (Royally Series) by Emma Chase
Logan St. James is a
smoldering, sexy beast. Sure, he can be a little broody at times—but Ellie
Hammond’s willing to overlook that. Because, have you seen him?? Sexy. As. Hell.
And Ellie’s perky
enough for both of them. For years, she’s had a
crush on the intense, protective royal security guard—but she doesn’t think he
ever saw her, not really.
To Logan, Ellie was
just part of the job—a relative of the royal family he’d sworn to protect. Now,
at 22 years old and fresh out of college, she’s determined to put aside her
X-rated dreams of pat-downs and pillow talk, and find a real life happily ever
after. The Queen of Wessco
encourages Ellie to follow in her sister’s footsteps and settle down with a
prince of her own. Or a duke, a marquis…a viscount would also do nicely.
But in the pursuit of
a fairy tale ending, Ellie learns that the sweetest crushes can be the hardest
to let go.
