How to Fail at Flirting by Denise Williams
Everyone who has picked up this book has fallen in love with these characters: equal parts nerdy and sexy, with a heavy helping of dad jokes. Despite the adorable cover, this one deals with more serious, emotional issues, but it’s a heartfelt story nonetheless.
Written in the Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur
If you’re having withdrawals after the mega-hit Red, White, and Royal Blue, then this is the book for you. A queer fake dating relationship with nods to Bridget Jones and Pride & Prejudice. And if you’re like me and love astrology, this is the perfect book.
First Comes Like by Alisha Rai
A sneak peek into the life of a beauty influencer and Bollywood soap opera star = our dream book. Sweet and lighthearted, this one will make you smile and swoon!
Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers
I wouldn’t categorize this one at the same level as romance as the other novels, but this book deserves a spot on this list. It has a fantastic queer romance, but the true star of this is the self-discovery journey that the protagonist Grace Porter goes through.
A Pho Love Story by Loan Le
If a book has a lot of food in it, I’m hooked. If It has competing family restaurants, I’m in love. Throw in a romance, and I’m truly smitten. It’s funny and smart, and the book I wish I had when I was a teenager.
