Here we are again bringing you some new romance releases to check out, especially with the new season upon us! In Rebecca Zanetti’s Hidden, you’ll be treated to a romantic suspense, while Tara Sivec’s Kiss The Girl is a modern-day adaptation of The Little Mermaid.
The Dinner List is a ‘what if’ story about if you could actually dine with those alive or dead, and for Sabrina, she finds that Audrey Hepburn is one of her guests. If you’re after a cute, and frankly the best example of the friends to lovers trope, we highly recommend Christina Lauren’s Josh and Hazel’s Guide To Not Dating.
If a little steaminess is more your speed, Dirty Headlines, Flirting With Forever, and Hard Sell will be of interest to you!
Read on to discover our picks and tell us in the comments below which ones you are most excited for!
Josh and Hazel’s Guide To Not Dating by Christina Lauren
Goodreads | Amazon | Book Depository
Hazel Camille Bradford knows she’s a lot to take with her army of pets and lack of filter—and frankly, most men aren’t up to the challenge. Josh Im has known Hazel since college, where her zany playfulness proved completely incompatible with his mellow restraint. But now, ten years later, after a cheating girlfriend has turned his life upside down, going out with Hazel is a breath of fresh air. Not that Josh and Hazel date. At least, not each other. Because setting each other up on progressively terrible double-blind dates means there’s nothing between them…right?
