I started out as an editorial assistant, and just hit my 10-year anniversary with the company because Penguin Random House and I are in a Committed (capital “C”) relationship. As a romance editor, I’m all about the vibes and feelings of a book — the more feelings the better! Discovering new talent and helping readers fall in love is so satisfying, and I’m thrilled to do a little more matchmaking! Here are some of my top romance recommendations with characters to swoon over. </p> <br> <hr style="width:100%; height:1px; background: #eeeeee; margin: 50px auto;">  <div class="books-container"> <div class="book-container-outer"> <div class="book-container-inner"> <div class='book-image-section-container sm'> <div class='book-image-section'> <div class='outer-container' role='button' tabindex='0' aria-label='Quick View' aria-haspopup='true' data-isbn='9780593336595' data-workid='673410' data-categories='Contemporary Romance' data-author='Amy Lea' data-authid='2245221' data-title='Exes and O's' data-imprint='Berkley' data-division='Berkley / NAL' data-format-name='Paperback' data-format='Paperback' data-ebook='9780593336601' > <div class='quick-view-container'> <div class='quick-view'>+ Quick View</div> </div> <div class='cover full'> <img src='' loading='lazy' data-src='https://assets.penguinrandomhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/25133908/PRH-Staff-Picks-IG-RJD-Book_4_1080x1350-9.jpg' class='cover-image lazyload' alt='Exes and O's by Amy Lea' /> </div> </div> <div class='book-shelf-add book-shelf' role='button' tabindex='0' aria-haspopup='true' aria-label='Add to Bookshelf'> <img class='no-hover' src='https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/wp-content/themes/penguinrandomhouse/images/save-20x22.svg' width='20px' height='22px' alt='Add to Bookshelf' > <img class='hover' src='https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/wp-content/themes/penguinrandomhouse/images/save-20x22_hover.svg' width='20px' height='22px' alt='Add to Bookshelf' > <div class='grid-item' data-workid='673410' data-title='Exes and O's' data-work='{"workId":673410,"isbn":9780593336595,"title":"Exes and O&#039;s","subtitle":null,"author":"Amy Lea","imprint":{"code":"CJ","name":"Berkley","family":null},"onSaleDate":{"date":"2023-01-10","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"UTC"},"usPrice":17,"format":{"code":"TR","name":"Paperback","subcode":null,"subname":null,"family":"Paperback","description":"Trade Paperback Original"},"contributors":{"010-1001":{"id":2245221,"display":"Amy Lea","roleCode":"A","roleName":"Author","ontour":false,"spotlight":"&lt;b&gt;Amy Lea&lt;\/b&gt; is the international bestselling author of romantic comedies for adults and teens, including Mindy Kaling&amp;rsquo;s Book Studio selection &lt;i&gt;Woke Up Like This&lt;\/i&gt;.

If you’re looking for a place to start exploring K-dramas, here are my current favorites.</p> <p><em><strong><a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/81473182">Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha</a></strong></em> is about a dentist who loves the fast-paced city life of Seoul but relocates to a seaside village for work. At first, she clashes with most of the locals, until she finds a savior/antagonist in Chief Hong, a jack-of-all-trades who is beloved by the villagers. For me, no man can hold a candle to Chief Hong.  </p> <p><strong><em><a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/81167119">Because This Is My First Life </a></em></strong>is one of the most realistic, heartfelt explorations of modern relationships I’ve seen in a TV series. It follows three best friends who are all looking for love and stability. The men they fall for are very different, and the types of relationships that suit them best aren’t the same. I love that none of the couple dynamics are made to seem better than the other and that the complications are grounded in real-life, day-to-day issues.</p> <p>And finally, I wholeheartedly recommend <strong><em><a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/81518991">Extraordinary Attorney Woo</a></em></strong>. Unlike my other recommendations, the romantic relationship is not the main plot point of this series. It’s about Woo Young-woo who is an attorney with autism. Her neurodivergence impacts her relationships with coworkers and her approach to cases, reminding us that there is always more than one approach to life. And of course, there is a delightful romantic thread running in the background of the series. </p> <p style="font-family:Shift-Book-Italic; font-size: 20px; text-align:center;"><em>Thank you,
