I get it. Romance is something that you can escape into when you want to slow down. I’m the same way, and depending on my mood, my romance choices can jump from sweet and innocent to dark. But not everyone is ready for dark or spicy, so here’s my top 10 list of romance novels that I have loved!

  1. Holiday Hire by Maggie Cole
  2. Holiday Hoax by Maggie Cole
  3. Caught in the Axe by Daphne Elliot
  4. Finding Hayes by Laura Pavlov
  5. Beating Heart by Laura Pavlov
  6. Forbidden King by Laura Pavlov
  7. Storms and Secrets by Claire Kingsley
  8. Behind His Eyes by Claire Kingsley
  9. Deadly Illusion by Kathy Lockheart
  10. The Broken One by Brittney Sahin
