Romance Recs: Favourite Military and Suspense Romances

Romance Recs: Favourite Military and Suspense Romances

July 2, 2020 Posted by angelreads Recommendations, Romance Recs No Comments

In this next post in my Romance Recommendation series, I share some of my favourite military and suspense romance. I love reading these genres of romance. They are intense, gripping and full of romance. Don’t forget to check out other posts in this series as well. 

I love the intensity of them, and as I don’t read a ton of crime and thrillers – these are a great escape. I also love how different authors look into them. It’s just really interesting. Some books are harder to read than others, some times brutal things happen. And then in others, it’s a different kind of brutality. I just like the different aspects that authors choose to focus on.

Anyway enough talk, here are some of my favourite Military and Suspense Romance novels that I have read so far. 

KGI Series by Maya Banks: This is one of my favourites because of the family aspect of it all. Most of the characters in each book are related – all coming from the same family. And if they aren’t they are part of the KGI team. Some of these books aren’t easy to read. There is a lot of horrible things that happen to nearly all of the characters, but you never know what is going to happen next. The only thing is the latest book on this series keeps on getting pushed back. I’m not sure why. Hopefully, it comes out soon because I’m dying to know what happens next. 

Flight & Glory Series by Rebecca Yarros: If I could include all of Rebecca Yarros military romance books I would, but I’m going to try and keep it to a few. This is one of the first military romance series that I read and let me tell you I feel it, love. I cried the first chapter of the first in this series. Also the last week in this one – oh gosh. Have a tissue box nearby. I like that all the books are so different, but they are raw and I love that so much. 

Squared Away (Out of Uniform #5) by Annabeth Albert: I’ve read this whole series, but I think this one might be my favourite from then all. I love the romance, the protagonist and everything that follows. It’s heartbreaking, but also so beautiful and a really enjoyable M/M romance. You don’t need to read this series in order per se, but it does have appearances of couples from previous books. 

The Last Letter by Rebecca Yarros: Okay I needed to include another Rebecca Yarros – because come on. This I think is my favourite of her books. You will need a tissue box, maybe even a bucket nearby. It’s heartbreaking and beautiful and just oh gosh so good. The Last Letter is one that I am always recommending, especially to those that don’t love romance. It’s a great starting point.   

Killer Instincts Series by Elle Kennedy: This is such a fun, intense and captivating series. I love all the different characters and their stories. While there is a storyline that is present throughout all the books, I love that each character gets to be in the spotlight. Again these books aren’t always easy to read. But if you are okay with things that do include darker themes, then go for it. 

Hard Ink Series by Laura Kaye: This is another series that I have really enjoyed. It’s intense and full of action. But also has some really nice relationships and not just romantic ones. It explores friendships and family. As well as looking into the horrors of war and while they might not be fighting on the field anymore – they are still left with many scars.

Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Vict Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Victoria Wilder’s Bourbon Boys series, and as soon as I heard she was writing a new series, around whiskey and women. Well, hell year. It took me a little bit to get into the book, but after a few chapters, I was hooked. 

Wyn is hiding, hiding from everyone, even when she is there. She is hiding behind so much, and damn, I don’t blame her. We don’t know everything from the start, but we start piecing things together, and my heart broke. And I was terrified for her. But she is a Crowne woman, and that means something. 

We’ve met Julian before, and while he intrigued me before, I am invested now. He is charming, secretive in the best way and will do anything at this point for Wyn. But he is also lost, and somehow he finds his way to Rumour and back into Wyn’s life. 

The romance is hot and steamy and everything that you want. The tension and chemistry in this one is high. Neither Wyn nor Julian wants to really give in or give up on one another, but a lot is standing in their way, honestly, mainly themselves. I just sat there giggling half the time because they are swoon-worthy. 

I would say this is the darkest Victoria Wilder book I’ve read, so double-check those trigger warnings before jumping in because there is a lot that happens. And I don’t think it’s going to die down any time soon because these Crowne women are badass, and I know things are only just getting started. 

Overall, Rumors & Whiskey is hot and sexual. The tension is dripping off the page, and then you are thrown into the terror and horrors of Rumour. You don’t know what is going to happen next, you don’t know who to trust, and there are so many more secrets that have yet to be revealed. I know I am ready for more. Are you?

Thank you to @atriabooksaus for an earc of Rumors & Whiskey 🥃. I’m in love.

March was a better reading month than February for March was a better reading month than February for me, and while I’m still stuck in my heated rivalry fanfiction era I managed to scrap out of it a little this month. 

I reread four books from the sweet omegaverse series and honestly had the best time. I also read two of my most anticipated reads of the year and had a blast. Sadly I did also have my first dnf of the year.

What did you read this March? Any standouts? What are you looking forward to reading in April? Let’s chat!
