Sun-soaked days in an idyllic Rhode Island beach town are the cure for a quarter-life crisis in this breezy friends-to-lovers contemporary. After high achiever Cam Luna’s best-laid plans go awry, supportive slacker Danny Brennan offers her a place to regroup and a shoulder to cry on. Ramirez makes Cam’s struggles sympathetic and injects the slow-burning central relationship with sizzling romantic tension.
The doyenne of historical romance riffs on gothic tropes—including a decadent manor, a potentially sinister widower, and a bevy of ghosts—in this addictive Regency. The quirky cast, led by plucky Evie Hughes, reluctant bride to the decades older Lord Burnsby, heads to the Scottish Highlands, where James keeps the shocking twists coming as scandals surface and Evie forms a sensual connection with a man who is decidedly not her husband.
This playful contemporary retelling of A Midsummer Night’s Dream finds nonbinary reality TV show producer Puck unable to resist meddling in the romantic relationships of their college friends during a chaotic wedding week. Allen’s affection for the original is on clear display as the madcap romantic hijinks unfold. The result is a hilarious, joyful whirlwind.
Novelist Gertie Bickerstaff is shocked when River Oakley, the cocky villain of her western romance series, magically appears in her living room—and even more so when she realizes he’s not the bad guy she’s written him as. He’s even nice enough to agree to fake date her to make her ex jealous. Greenwood has a lot of fun with this clever meta setup as the pair’s pretend relationship endearingly gives way to real feelings.

With this emotional contemporary, bestseller Ryan takes readers behind the scenes of a Hollywood movie set, reuniting Verity Hill, the screenwriter of a biopic about a forgotten Harlem Renaissance artist, with composer Wright “Monk” Bellamy, the man whose heart she broke 10 years earlier. It’s a poignant and layered second-chance romance that doubles as a moving love letter to Black history and creativity.
