class="elementor-widget-container"> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">★<strong> Yin Yang Love Song</strong></h2> <p>Lauren Kung Jessen offers a thoughtful and unique contemporary romance with <strong>Yin Yang Love Song</strong>. Set on Washington’s Whidbey Island, the book centers on Chrysanthemum Hua Williams, a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and a self-proclaimed “heartbreak herbalist.” After meeting Vin and Leo Chao, a pair of famous rock cellists, Chryssy invites them to her family’s healing retreat to help Leo overcome a bad break-up. Cue rabid fans of the Chao Brothers assuming Vin and Chryssy are in a relationship, which the pair not-so-reluctantly embraces in order to promote their individual work. Faux quickly feels real, even though neither believes themself capable of lasting love—but it’s clear that Vin and Chryssy are romantics at heart. Chryssy’s large family (many of whom believe they are cursed to never find love) and fascinating glimpses of TCM fill out this story, which begs to be read with a cup of relaxing herbal tea. Jessen’s evocative descriptions of flowers, acupuncture and music weave their way through the narrative, adding even more to enjoy.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Spirit Collection of Thorne Hall</strong></h2> <p>Romance struggles to overcome horror in J. Ann Thomas’ creepy, shiver-inducing <strong>The Spirit Collection of Thorne Hall</strong>. Elegy Thorne has resigned herself to the dictates of her father: wearing historical clothing, agreeing to an arranged engagement and being bound to her ancestral home and its 14 resident ghosts. That is, until handsome Atticus Hart arrives to work on some much-needed repairs. Their immediate spark of attraction makes Elegy wonder what could be . . . but her daily encounters with the sometimes-genial and sometimes-malevolent spirits remind her why she must stay at Thorne Hall to keep them under control. Atticus soon learns the truth of her predicament, and with him and other friends at hand, Elegy decides to break the chains of old promises, even though it puts her life and the lives of those she loves at risk. Unforeseen secrets and gruesome spookiness abound.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Strike and Burn</strong></h2> <p>The compelling opening scene of Taylor Hutton’s <strong>Strike and Burn</strong> is the opposite of a meet-cute: Standing beside the corpse of her dead sister in the local morgue, Honor Stone encounters undeniably sexy Strike Madden. They spar, they quip, they kiss. Purely due to the highly emotional situation, Honor tells herself afterward. But when Strike finds her at her boutique, the part-time artist can’t dismiss him, even as palpable threats hover over the burgeoning relationship. Strike is rich but mysterious, emotionally available yet secretive. Then there’s the terrifying presence of her sister’s former boyfriend—likely her murderer—who now wants Honor for his own. Hutton’s burning-hot sex scenes torch the pages, and the hallmark of the best dark romances emerges from the smoke: morally ambiguous characters whom readers will root for despite their deep flaws and violent tendencies. <strong>Strike and Burn </strong>is a can’t-look-away read.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Out of the Woods</strong></h2> <p>In <strong>Out of the Woods</strong> by Hannah Bonam-Young, Sarah and Caleb Linwood seek to rejuvenate their marriage at a couples wilderness retreat. Told in Sarah’s first-person point of view, with flashbacks to give context to the present, this romance delves into a 17-year relationship that hasn’t grown as the characters—who married as teens—matured. The camping and hiking is a frame for the exploration of the marriage, and also adds humor for the outdoor-averse pair. Bonam-Young writes with an upbeat and irreverent contemporary voice that keeps the pace moving and the sex scenes sizzling as the two persevere to find new happiness. Grief and loss are at the center of this romance, which will surely touch readers’ hearts (as will glimpses of the Happily Ever After of characters from Bonam-Young’s previous novel, <a href="https://www.bookpage.com/reviews/out-on-a-limb-hannah-bonam-young-book-review/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Out on a Limb</em></a>).</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Zoe Brennan, First Crush</strong></h2> <p>A small, family-owned winery in Georgia is the stage for <strong>Zoe Brennan, First Crush</strong> by Laura Piper Lee. Lonely and stressed, the titular character and narrator participates in a blindfolded but otherwise little-left-to-the-imagination threesome with two other women. The unexpected and explosive passion turns to near-panic when Zoe discovers she’s just had an incredibly hot hookup with her ex-BFF’s big sister and her own teenage crush, Laine Woods. The awkwardness only escalates when she finds out that Laine has been hired as the vintner at Zoe’s floundering vineyard. Cue scenes of struggling to keep things professional, of longing looks and lustful thoughts interspersed with glimpses of the grape-growing and wine-making process. Zoe’s romantic history is dismal and she’s protected her heart since the loss of her mother, but Laine could maybe change all that. A big event that will mean success or failure for the winery, as well as for Laine’s reputation, ups the stakes as these two fall in bed and then in love. There’s a Tolkienesque wedding and a cast of raucous friends to add hijinks to this lovely—and libidinous—romance.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-001fe5f

The series follows three women, all of whom woke up strapped to gurneys at a hotel in the middle of an earthquake and a fire—with no memory of how they got there, and with new paranormal abilities to boot. Surviving that horrific event forged an unbreakable bond between Pallas Llewellyn (<em>Sleep No More</em>), Talia March (<a href="https://www.bookpage.com/features/an-unplugged-retreat-is-anything-but-serene-in-jayne-ann-krentzs-latest-paranormal-romance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>The Night Island</em></a>) and Amelia Rivers, and they created a cold case podcast, <em>Lost Night Files</em>, to discover what happened on that fateful night. <strong>Shattering Dawn</strong> follows Amelia, a photographer with psychic abilities, an eye for detail and a healthy sense of survival.</p> <p>Amelia has struggled with paranoia and phobias ever since that night at the hotel, but unfortunately for her, the shadowy figure lurking around her apartment is not a figment of her imagination—it’s a dangerous stalker. So she hires private investigator Gideon Sweetwater to help catch him. Gideon is reluctant to help Amelia at first, as he thinks she’s just paranoid. But after her stalker tries to kidnap her, it’s clear her fears are rooted in reality. The only safe thing to do is to go on the run, which is especially hard for Amelia, for whom trust is so difficult. However, she quickly learns that Gideon has his own psychic gifts, abilities that are the yin to Amelia’s yang, and powerful when combined with her own.</p> <p>Krentz, who has published more than 120 books since her debut in 1979, is an old-school storyteller with a quick, intelligent mind and a talent for building a wicked sense of tension and suspense. She’s an incredible world builder, to the point where the reader truly feels as if they’re <em>in </em>the story, parsing through the data and fighting the bad guys with dedicated intensity. Krentz’s main characters have equitable strength and vulnerability, and while the plot is lighter on romance, Gideon and Amelia’s love is shown in the way he stands by her side—even when he would prefer she stay out of danger—and the way she helps him work through his own trauma. If you’re a fan of romantic suspense, treat yourself to <strong>Shattering Dawn</strong>, an expert offering by one of the best authors in the business.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element

The large Sicco family is entrenched in the conservative community, and Angelina is well-liked despite being a lesbian. But this was not the case for Jagvi, Angelina’s brother’s ex-girlfriend. After Jagvi broke up with him and came out as a lesbian, she moved away. In the decade since, each time Jagvi returns to Cadenze, she proves to be “the chaos element in Angelina’s equilibrium.” That is, until Angelina has a terrifying and visceral encounter with a monster, and realizes that Jagvi is the only thing that can hold it at bay. </p> <p>In <strong>Feast While You Can</strong>, Clements and Datta are firmly in the realm of psychological horror: A serial killer hiding in a closet isn’t the scariest thing in the room; rather, the underlying trauma of homophobia and racism feeds the horror and the menace. In the small community of Cadenze, the familiarity of family, friends and neighbors is both comforting and suffocating. This robust cast of secondary characters adds to the weighty conflicts between responsibility, family and self-preservation that Clements and Datta investigate, but at times the extended family drama is a distraction from the forward momentum. </p> <p>There are so many layers of horror, trauma and sexy trysts to unpack here, with the monster functioning as both a real entity and a manifestation of the taboo desire Angelina feels for Jagvi. It’s like an unseen devil on her shoulder, willing her to act out her most secret desires so it can live vicariously through her until there’s nothing left of her to give.</p> <p>You might want to read this one with the lights on, lest you look over your shoulder and realize the monster’s in the room with you.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-001fe5f

of Spells</strong></h2> <p>With <strong>The Woodsmoke Women’s Book of Spells</strong>, Rachel Greenlaw offers a haunting romantic fantasy. After a decade away, English artist Carrie Morgan returns to her hometown of Woodsmoke. She had reasons to run, including her family’s witchy reputation. But her grandmother left Carrie her cottage, and she decides to refurbish it before selling the property and leaving again. The lure of the mountain town is almost as irresistible as Matthieu, a handsome stranger who offers his help with the renovation. However, Carrie’s Great-Aunt Cora, the keeper of the family’s book of spells, is convinced Carrie is headed for heartbreak: Morgan lore tells of magical, beautiful strangers who appear out of the mountains as winter begins, but disappear with the spring. Told in alternating viewpoints, the story follows Carrie, Cora and Carrie’s best friend, Ivy, as they confront their pasts and find love. Readers will lose themselves in this engrossing, atmospheric and emotional tale.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Pictures of You</strong></h2> <p>Twenty-nine-year-old Evie Hudson awakens in a hospital with no memories past the age of 16 in <strong>Pictures of You</strong> by Emma Grey. Evie’s youthful voice lends a <em>Freaky Friday</em>/<em>13 Going on 30</em> vibe to the beginning of the novel, but the can’t-look-away plot is ultimately much more serious, and the tone soon changes to match. Evie struggles to integrate what she learns of her recent past with her teenage vision of who she would become. Then an old friend, Drew, reluctantly steps in to help her discover why she broke ties with her family and best friend. Grey jumps back in time to fill in gaps for the reader, and Evie’s tale becomes darker and ever more riveting as layers are peeled back and sacrifices revealed. There’s nonstop drama and surprise after surprise in this twisty tearjerker.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Perfect Fit</strong></h2> <p>A couple re-meets-cute in <strong>Perfect Fit</strong> by Clare Gilmore. Josephine Davis runs her own clothing company in Austin, Texas, and is shocked when her largest investor hires business consultant Will Grant. Not only is Will the twin brother of Jo’s ex-best friend, but the pair also made out as teenagers. Can they work together even though they haven’t spoken in nine years? Gilmore writes in a fresh, modern voice, and fills the world around Josie and Will with cool friends with cool jobs and cool attitudes who support their burgeoning romance. It seems impossible for them not to end up together . . . if only they can overcome their insecurities and act like the adults they are now. Fun food, fun drinks and fun parties put this squarely in the rom-com lane, with an added coming-of-age element thanks to Josie’s first-person perspective.</p> </div> </div> <div

Gilliland returns to the small town of Cranberry, Virginia, and the fascinating Flores women she introduced in <a href="https://www.bookpage.com/reviews/witch-of-wild-things/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Witch of Wild Things</em></a>. This time, Gilliland focuses on the mercurial Teal Flores as she embarks on a friends-to-lovers romance.</p> <p>Teal has a magical gift, as all the Flores women do: She can alter the weather depending on her mood. But ever since her mother pinched a piece of her gift as a child before skipping town, Teal’s power has been unpredictable and uncontrollable. To fix her gift, she’ll probably have to find her long-lost mother, who unfortunately has a magical knack for hiding. A more pressing problem is that Teal doesn’t have a date to her ex’s wedding, but there’s an obvious, very hot solution for that: her longtime best friend, Carter Vasquez. If only Carter hadn’t decided a year ago, after a steamy, one-time-only make-out session, that he was done pining after Teal. They haven’t spoken since, but what does Teal have to lose in asking?</p> <p>As it turns out, Carter needs Teal, too. To gain his inheritance from his recently deceased grandmother, he has to find a wife. So the two strike a bargain: They’ll pretend to get married, with Carter taking Teal to her ex’s wedding and giving her a cut of his inheritance. But what starts as a mutually beneficial arrangement quickly turns into a love that can withstand any storm.</p> <p>Building on a rich history of magical realism, Gilliland has crafted a family of strong but wounded women whose stories we crave and whose happiness we root for. The Flores sisters are a captivating trio, each with their own unique talents. While Teal is the main focus of this book, Sage (the heroine of <em>Witch of Wild Things</em>) and Sky are an integral part of her story. <strong>Lightning in Her Hands</strong> builds beautifully upon <em>Witch of Wild Things</em>, highlighting the importance of family and the strength of sisterly love, and will leave readers looking forward to Sky’s turn at the helm. But before we get there, we can savor this perfectly executed friends-to-lovers romance. Carter is an excellent foil for Teal: steady and even-keeled, someone who has always seen her worth. The love and attraction they have for each other is palpable, and we know it’s only a matter of time before they realize it, too.</p> <p>Lush and beautifully written, <strong>Lightning in Her Hands</strong> is a gorgeous novel full of heart, magic and family.</p> <blockquote> <p><a

data-id="9937e68" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="theme-post-content.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p>Shelly Jay Shore’s tenderhearted debut, <strong>Rules for Ghosting</strong>, is equal parts ghost story, Jewish family epic and achingly sweet queer love story. With great care placed on each of these components, Shore has gifted readers with a haunting tale full of grief, joy and desire. </p> <p>From the time that Ezra Friedman was young, he was able to see dead people. This wouldn’t be a problem for some, but growing up in a funeral home made it all a bit more complicated. From his grandfather’s ghost giving him judgmental glares when Ezra transitioned, to the never-ending influx of spectral strangers that appeared while families grieved, there seemed to be no escape. It only made sense that when it came time to choose a profession of his own, Ezra ran to the opposite end of the life cycle and became a doula. But when his dream job falls through and his mom runs away with the rabbi’s wife, Ezra finds himself right back at the family business, trying to pick up the pieces. This time, however, a very cute volunteer usher named Jonathan seems to be making eyes at Ezra. Things in that area seem promising—until Jonathan’s deceased husband, Ben, starts showing up. Can Ezra hold his family together, save the business and keep his heart from breaking into pieces? Only time will tell. </p> <p><strong>Rules for Ghosting</strong> is for romance readers who like their stories with an undercurrent of sadness; think Anita Kelly or Ashley Poston. Ezra and Jonathan are both actively grieving: Ezra the loss of a job and his parents’ marriage, while Jonathan is only a year out from the loss of Ben. Both try to put one foot in front of the other while finding happiness in everyday joys like queer family dinner and sloppy kisses from Ezra’s pitbull. These small moments of humor and brevity bring lightness to a book that otherwise deals with many of life’s difficult trials. Shore takes her time with the central love story, choosing to focus at first on building out Ezra’s friend group and setting up his chaotic family dynamic. It’s nearly halfway through the book before Ezra and Jonathan do more than cast flirty glances at each other or have a passing conversation. But worry not: Shore more than makes up for that restraint in the second half of the book.</p> <p>A gentle love story with a beautiful, queer, Jewish relationship at its center, <strong>Rules for

better place to go than Thistle Grove. Author Lana Harper first introduced this wonderfully witchy town in <a href="https://www.bookpage.com/features/26683-toil-triple-trouble-romance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Payback’s a Witch</em></a>, and her latest entry, <strong>Rise and Divine</strong>, is the fifth and—alas—last story in the series. But man, what a note to end on!</p> <p>If you’re not familiar with this series . . . for starters, you should probably read up. It’s a well-stuffed world (for my part, I’d have loved a character list) full of extensive, complicated relationships. But you mainly need to know that the Avramovs are one of the four families balancing the magic of Thistle Grove, and they do that by bringing the creep factor: dealing with the dead. The most dangerous tasks fall to Dasha Avramov, the family’s devil eater. If a demon latches onto you like a tick, she can set you free—but her close encounters with the dark side have a price. The world beyond the veil is impossibly seductive, and its pull makes it hard for Dasha to connect with the real, living world, including her ex-girlfriend and the love of her life, Ivy Thorn. Dasha’s struggles come to a head during the Cavalcade, a sacred Thistle Grove event, when someone foolishly knocks on the veil and something impossibly dangerous knocks back<em>.</em></p> <p>Harper always delivers on eerie atmosphere and warm heart. In her world, witchcraft is complex and interesting, with beautifully crafted details. But the real magic of this book lies in its rich, wonderful cast of characters. The romance between Dasha and Ivy is sweet and passionate, while the relationships Dasha has with other figures—the Avramov clan, the other families, a stranger with amnesia who has a crucial role to play—give the story depth and resonance, making us care deeply about what happens to Dasha and Ivy as they face off with the evil that threatens the town. Like Harper’s other creations, Dasha has a combination of wit and grit that makes her irresistible, and you’ll love <strong>Rise and Divine </strong>. . . no matter how sad you are to reach the last page and know it’s time to say goodbye.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-001fe5f elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode" data-id="001fe5f"

ethical scammer. Yes, she pretends to be psychic, digging up info on deceased loved ones via social media, but she <em>helps </em>her clients. She brings them peace of mind, and that’s priceless, right? Or at least, priced low enough to not dent the accounts of the wealthy socialites she scams. And if she has to lie to herself a little to believe she’s not as destructive as her con artist father, then so be it. Gretchen’s very good at lying. But when her best client hires her to exorcise a friend’s goat farm so he can sell it, she’s the one who gets spooked to discover, well, an actual spook. The place is<em> </em>haunted by Everett, a charming, chatty, wildly flirtatious (just because he’s dead doesn’t mean he’s <em>dead</em>) spirit only Gretchen can see—and he carries an ominous warning. Everett triggered a curse years ago, and now the farm has<em> </em>to stay in the family. If the current owner, Charlie Waybill, sells the place and leaves, he’ll die. Not<em> </em>an easy message to pass on, especially when the (very hot, very grumpy, very skeptical) Charlie believes everything about Gretchen is a lie.</p> <p></p> <p><strong>Happy Medium </strong>follows author Sarah Adler’s absolutely amazing debut, <a href="https://www.bookpage.com/reviews/mrs-nashs-ashes-sarah-adler-book-review/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Mrs. Nash’s Ashes</em></a>. Like its predecessor, <strong>Happy Medium</strong> is a grumpy-sunshine romance and, admittedly, Charlie works slightly less well than <em>Mrs. Nash’s Ashes</em>’ Hollis. While Charlie’s suspicion of Gretchen’s claims is natural, his continued harshness toward someone who’s actively helping him, with no personal benefit, feels a little extreme. But the way Adler shades her sunshine heroines is so lovely. Gretchen’s not exactly optimistic—she’d describe herself as ruthlessly practical—but her drive to do good, to seek out the positive, to embrace the weirdness of life instead of letting it throw her off course resonates throughout the book. She lights up the page, bringing more than just the farm (and Charlie’s heart) to life. You completely get why her customers always leave satisfied, and Adler’s readers will leave <strong>Happy Medium</strong> feeling the same way.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element

class="wp-block-heading">★<strong> Christa Comes Out of Her Shell</strong></h2> <p>A lovably quirky heroine is at the center of Abbi Waxman’s <strong>Christa Comes Out of Her Shell</strong>. Scientist Christa Liddle is conducting research on her beloved sea snails on an island in the Indian Ocean when a family crisis requires her to return to Los Angeles. There, she’s forced to face an old tragedy and new drama while surrounded by her mother, older sisters and childhood friends and enemies. Christa begins to see herself and others differently, including her onetime teenage crush, Nate Donovan. Told in first person and punctuated with media clips and Christa’s charming drawings, the story slowly reveals the Liddle family’s history and Christa’s own vulnerabilities. While the will-they-won’t-they love story between Christa and Nate is definitely a through line, it seems safe to predict another romance too—that of readers losing their hearts to the eccentric, larger-than-life Liddle clan.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Lady He Lost</strong></h2> <p>In <strong>The Lady He Lost</strong> by Faye Delacour, Lieutenant Eli Williams returns to early Victorian London after being presumed dead—completely upending the world of Jane Bishop, an impoverished spinster who was once devoted to him. It’s been two years since he endured a shipwreck and being kidnapped by pirates, and Eli discovers his fiancée married another, his brother spent his savings and Jane, the woman he actually loved, will barely look at him. But he’s determined to make things better, despite general suspicion about why it took him so long to get home and Jane’s declaration that while she still cares for him, she can’t imagine a future as his second choice. Can their burning desire for each other overcome these hurdles? Balls and gowns and picnics in the rain add historical flavor, as does Jane’s quest for financial autonomy. With its engaging leads and well-drawn supporting characters, <strong>The Lady He Lost</strong> is a highly entertaining read.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Old Flames and New Fortunes</strong></h2> <p>Prepare to swoon while enjoying the ever-so-romantic <strong>Old Flames and New Fortunes</strong> by Sarah Hogle. Romina Tempest and her sister run The Magick Happens, a mystical shop in their small hometown of Moonville, Ohio. Romina’s floral arrangements, which use the language of flowers to nurture romantic hopes, are some of the store’s most popular offerings. But after an unforgettable first love and a disastrous recent relationship, Romina avoids entangling her own heart. But when that same first love, Alex King, returns to town, he and Romina must confront what went wrong and decide if they can move forward as more mature and forgiving lovers. Told from Romina’s perspective, this love story has witty banter, steamy love scenes and heartfelt apologies, but it’s Alex’s eloquent devotion that will melt the flintiest of readers. The colorful cast includes families both biological and created, and the promise of magic in the air adds extra sparkle.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-001fe5f
