With people on his back about his lack of meaningful relationships, this situation is as beneficial for Brett as it is for Becca.

Jess is a small-time romance author who has spent her time following the breakup writing happily ever afters, whereas Nick has found big-time success with his notoriously sad love stories. After years of no contact, the two find themselves reunited at their publisher’s awards show when Jess is asked to present Niick with his award. And if that couldn’t get any more awkward… that night they get snowed into the hotel and *spoiler alert* there is only one bed left. This read is flirty, funny and fast-paced; a guaranteed solution to your slump. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/a4e16e4d-5ded-4cf9-bd47-ad2051dee6c9/03..jpeg articles - reading slump remedies — short romance book recommendations - Below Zero by Ali Hazelwood Below Zero wins the prize for the most original premise — Hannah is a NASA aerospace engineer who finds herself stranded at a remote Arctic research station, and the only person who is able to make the treacherous journey to save her is the bane of her life and longtime rival, Ian. Despite this being a novella, it is still brimming with all the angst that we know and love Ali Hazelwood for, so if you can’t commit to a full AH novel right now, this is perfect for you. Most excitingly, it is part of a STEMinist novella series, along with two other stories following Hannah’s best friends Mara and Sadie. https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/ybpsrrtzrfmx69lpwzynhq2ehyb3gg monthly 0.5 2025-03-13 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/hkij9vjqxf293t9s7ooa3smsgf2zjm monthly 0.5 2025-03-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/7262e714-9ce4-4a43-b924-bb772095e113/ab1.jpeg articles - let’s talk audiobooks — what i’ve been listening to recently - The Perfect Rom-Com by Melissa Ferguson The Perfect Rom-Com follows Bryony — a ghostwriter to a bestselling romance author, Amelia Benedict — and Jack — her literary agent turned best friend. When Amelia is starting to stumble on questions from her fans about her books, Bryony is asked to go on tour with her to give her a helping hand and, of course, Jack tags along too. As it turns out, the only thing you need to realise you have feelings for your best friend is to live with them on a cramped tour bus for a couple of weeks. This book was so fun, with a premise that is fresh and original. It’s a closed-door romance that is as emotionally deep as it is funny, and it also shines a light on the underappreciated roles of ESL teachers. Overall, an enjoyable listen and a wonderful gateway into the mysterious world of audiobooks. In the name of transparency, Melissa Ferguson and Thomas Nelson Fiction sent me this advanced audio copy in exchange for an honest review, which you can read in full here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/3402c8c2-273d-476f-96ca-4a19bf5530a9/Image.jpeg articles - let’s talk audiobooks — what i’ve been listening to recently - Brynn and Sebastian Hate Each Other by Bethany Turner Brynn and Sebastian actually do hate each other, like, for real. This book follows Brynn, a morning show host, who is sent back to her hometown to do damage control after she is accidentally recorded being uncharacteristically mean about the place and its people. It’s here that she meets Sebastian, a man who moved to the town after Brynn left, who is tasked with showing her around. The enemies-to-lovers trope is not here to play in this book. It actually gets to the point when the protagonists, particularly Brynn, are incredibly unlikeable. However, as their walls slowly break down and facades fade, you’re left with two people who are sincerely very good for each other. While admittedly a little frustrating at times, Brynn and Sebastian Hate Each Other is a rewarding, lovely, heartwarming listen. In the name of transparency, Bethany Turner and Thomas Nelson Fiction sent me this free audio copy in exchange for an honest review — this book and its sequel are both out now! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/b9b68e00-7f30-4461-a693-46903640c3a3/ab3.jpeg articles - let’s talk audiobooks — what i’ve been listening to recently - You Between the Lines by Katie Naymon When she is accepted into an MFA creative writing program, Leigh is excited to move to North Carolina and start a new chapter. However, the last person she expected to see in her classes was Will — her high school crush turned nemesis who has been plaguing her thoughts for over a decade. So, when he submits a poem to workshop that is seemingly about her, Leigh and Will are forced to admit that there may be something between them… they just need to read between the lines. Wow. Wow. Wow. This one was such an easy five stars. It’s probably important to note that I am a creative writing student, so that gave this story a very real edge for me. The characters were likeable, the plot was unpredictable, and the writing style was easy to get lost in. I particularly loved the flashbacks to the past woven throughout, the pop culture references sprinkled throughout the dialogue and the way poetry was used as a plot device. Genuinely one of my favourite books for a while. In the name of transparency, Katie Naymon and Harper Collins Audio sent me this advance audio copy in exchange for my honest review.

But what Zach, a somewhat hopeless romantic, doesn’t know is that Alice never sees anyone past the 3rd date. However, with an undeniable chemistry, can they make it past c? I loved this one. Firstly, it is set in Sheffield, and I am SO here for northern English representation in contemporary romance. Secondly, the audio narration of this story was PERFECT. It is a dual POV, and the two narrators make the plot so real and human. The story discusses some difficult themes, so I would recommend checking trigger warnings before diving in, but The A to Z of Us is so heartwarming, and I can’t believe I’ve never heard of Hannah Doyle before now. Loved. It. (read my full review here) Also! I just wanted to highlight that I found this book through my local library, so definitely think about doing the same! 2025 is for supporting local libraries. https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/ali-hazelwoods-bride-2024-is-an-extended-asexual-metaphor monthly 0.5 2025-02-26 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/60efjml3p8fpmxhnqunvcsty0tkblc monthly 0.5 2025-02-21 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/1w8no9lsgti8cuxmaqek7s49cqp5t4 monthly 0.5 2025-02-10 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/7pe9g5s3s25vbbpjsjp9zy6mt2k4xp monthly 0.5 2025-01-31 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/1564rezkm36iblvi4arlyia37j199o monthly 0.5 2025-01-24 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/sparks-science-and-slow-burn-romance-a-conversation-with-authorkristenbcole monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/py05q01b548wa50npy5pets2z8a75q monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/anpot3ikkmrmfnfdfh2kfinymk71ut monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/wa5m0n4dcsa3qlnkldod5dflxgrv5y monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/s9kjyw50rv7rbsljwgfspjfqz3krqa monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/9wom9wxkqeu08rnggc5vmc533sk5q1 monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/72kfk3l2vkdv02q9gsfm2lbly7hja9 monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/0luiyn2sfc02r7i96ep904vdhflpby monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/zxdxx0hwnkw2ccgb106ylpf3im9kxd monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/k6msz0rfbgh2xng82u2ego7neal8wm monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/td31qobd5s577gdaavgctluum4ev56 monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/dd05bbc7-f640-43c7-a91d-328161d57370/gbbl.jpeg articles - the future of love — romance books to look forward to in 2025 - It only feels right to start with an upcoming release from the queen of romance herself, Miss Emily Henry. There have been rumours surrounding her sixth novel for a while, with fans claiming to have found easter eggs within her newsletter uploads on her website for a few months now — safe to say, their suspicions were correct. Great Big Beautiful Life is set to release on the 22nd of April and is a classic Em Hen love story complete with a picturesque vacation backdrop and complex family dynamics. There is said to be a mystery element alongside the romance that we all know and love, and most excitingly, Emily Henry was inspired by Taylor Swift’s Last Great American Dynasty from Folklore during the writing process. April can’t come soon enough. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/0928b0cb-20b2-4808-b4bd-ba98b030a3e2/Screenshot+2024-11-06+at+21.08.47.png articles - the future of love — romance books to look forward to in 2025 - After taking a break following the release of Carrie Soto is Back in 2022, Taylor Jenkins Reid is back with the announcement of her new novel, Atmosphere. Releasing on the 5th of June and set in the 1980s, it follows Joan Goodwin — an NASA astronaut who is stationed on Earth in Houston with the job of staying in constant communication with her team up in space. The twist? The love of her life is in that rocket. When faced with a life or death situation, Joan must figure things out to save the man she loves. This is a true high stakes romance. As can be expected from Taylor Jenkins Reid, she has spoken about how much research she has done into space and everything that space travel involves, so rest assured we are in for an emotional, action-packed storyline in Spring. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/16960b14-81a2-4175-a27f-3735b1816716/deep+end.jpeg articles - the future of love — romance books to look forward to in 2025 - Ali Hazelwood is THE author for STEM romances. From The Love Hypothesis to Love on the brain, she has singlehandedly made the reading community fall in love with both her characters and their passion for science. And you’ll be happy to know that her new novel, Deep End, is keeping with the academic theme but this time it’s a college sports romance! The plot follows two student-athletes — a platform diver and the swim team captain — as their distracting romantic feelings battle with their lifelong dreams to make it professionally in their fields. Due to hit shelves on February the 4th, it’s not long until we can jump straight into the Deep End. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/01169f96-ad75-486f-81d7-6619a6459947/71nSoqau4UL._AC_UF894%2C1000_QL80_.jpg articles - the future of love — romance books to look forward to in 2025 - Standing in a nice dress? Staring at the sunset? Mark your calendars for april 1st (this is not a joke, I promise you) because there’s a new Abby Jimenez on the way! Say You’ll Remember Me follows Samantha — who readers have actually met before in Just For The Summer when Emma and Justin helped her find her mother — and veterinarian, Xavier. After having the best first date in history, the pair are forced to go their separate ways after the realities of real life and complex family dynamics get in the way. Samantha just has one ask of Xavier; she wants him to always remember her and the night they shared together. But are the memories enough or do they both want more? Find out in April. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/f3594ec4-1f36-4b60-b8bd-2f2ba7c167a7/219301810.jpg articles - the future of love — romance books to look forward to in 2025 - Rockstar romances are a tried and true fan favourite, so imagine that trope combined with Ashley Poston’s magical writing and you’ve got her upcoming release Sounds Like Love. This love story is between a musician and a songwriter who both find themselves in the thick of a creative block, unable to express themselves artistically like they once could. However, the one thing that can inspire them is each other and the telepathic connection they share — you can always rely on Ashley Poston for some first class magic realism. But there’s just one small issue, they don’t want to be connected to each other in this way. If anything, they despise the inexplicable pull that they feel. Stay tuned for June the 17th to find out if they can learn to work together for the sake of their careers. Who knows, maybe it will be fun! https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/ijvza6nrg8bfqsamvgumgnqkka7d1w monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/tl6h9g2m78ycqht694v7dn8f637gkm monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/skating-into-hearts-the-captivating-romances-of-hannah-grace monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/starting-a-bookish-podcast-a-conversation-with-serysbookspace monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/figuring-out-romance-bookstagram-tips-and-tricks monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/articles/book-to-screen-a-daptations-a-look-at-the-it-ends-with-us-film monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews daily 0.75 2025-07-22 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/cdxiw83c731tmm6ui9249oumvs7lzp monthly 0.5 2025-07-22 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/o3r3otonsvb67kfhu2n1ydbk0hv2j2 monthly 0.5 2025-06-25 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/w9oj0oc65wxivsiq5n6ll95pxv10u4 monthly 0.5 2025-06-19 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/6uimqqctq8vx4aah1dhce7nqyqp83p monthly 0.5 2025-03-27 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/bxjbfkwjue9dl6cwijivedaj0ruy22 monthly 0.5 2025-02-18 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/fjws842inydg25k19yeohlcfy3nbpf monthly 0.5 2025-02-14 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/6l45naexw24melb5m26477gm9ifo05 monthly 0.5 2025-02-07 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/3xszb3zepjkd0zayyc4zpf6aa4hqm0 monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/s19p2cujh3diura5t9emvaptguvvjb monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/dh3q64j3n1snlt44vfoxekmv2lek3a monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/fu22m13glaxxuzs7io8jxscwsojhlu monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/2o7xbjbw2hz4br5e8g2r3b2osoobrl monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/write-my-wrongs-by-julian-font-a-review monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/yavfzpmndhe8oaf3hsoxv137ahy0bc monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/morbidly-yours-by-ivy-fairbanks-october-book-club-pick-review monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/ei8oikcq189yf7t61050o9bw6gp3wq monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/love-getting-even-by-laura-ives-an-arc-review monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/reviews/2thewyznnkw4g6z6efewmn4b0oep3o monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/creativewriting daily 0.75 2025-01-28 https://www.theromancereport.com/creativewriting/yxgiz1fbudfn9966g54oqax21ciweg monthly 0.5 2025-01-28 https://www.theromancereport.com/creativewriting/slp9gt6dnm9t5nc8veg63rrtvtvrmh monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/creativewriting/a-poem-based-on-archers-voice monthly 0.5 2025-01-23 https://www.theromancereport.com/jointheteam daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://www.theromancereport.com/home daily 1.0 2026-04-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/1f940f13-5828-4a0c-bc33-89d5ea74e0a7/apple-touch-icon.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/c603f899-2ace-4490-a57b-e7cedd873a5e/April+Issue.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/51f392a4-a251-49ce-a6ea-5f3513a576f6/March+Issue.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/6fcd094a-8ff6-4602-b9cf-ee117d44ceb4/February+Issue.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/1f940f13-5828-4a0c-bc33-89d5ea74e0a7/apple-touch-icon.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/1f940f13-5828-4a0c-bc33-89d5ea74e0a7/apple-touch-icon.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6706902f9318790ded05fa26/eb44353d-b52d-40c7-820d-10ceb07c3838/Untitled+design-5.png https://www.theromancereport.com/magazine daily 0.75 2026-04-03 https://www.theromancereport.com/about daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64f75286aab3a218e420ce2c/9ea86983-451d-4cd1-9c84-7bed6fec82b6/image-asset.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64f75286aab3a218e420ce2c/a7dac3e3-33cf-4dc6-932f-b24e9c89749c/image-asset.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64f75286aab3a218e420ce2c/a5ee291d-e66b-4ed1-a853-5506278b42a8/image-asset.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64f75286aab3a218e420ce2c/d4049d5d-9f25-4f93-95de-1a94428237d0/image-asset.jpeg
