Romance Books to Read If You Love YA Romances

Romance Books to Read If You Love YA Romances

November 16, 2021 Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 7 Comments

 

This week I’m sharing the romance books to read if you love reading young adult romances. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

The theme for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday is; Books to Read If You Love/Loved X. So today I thought I would share some of my favourite romances to read if you love reading YA romances. I found one of the hardest things for me when I started reading romances was bridging that gap.

Going right from YA to romances is not for everyone. Sometimes it can come as a shock to readers when they are thrown into very spicy romances books after only every reading young adult. And what better way to share my love for both genres than sharing the romances books I recommend for those starting to read romances after reading YA books. 

Anyway, let’s get into this weeks list. As always these are in no order. There is a mix of new adult romances, as well as a mix of all types of genres in romances. So let’s go. 

The Enemy Trap by Maren Moore | The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas | Rejected  (Shadow Beast Shifters #1) by Jaymin Eve | Nowhere But Here (Thunder Road #1) by Katie McGarry. 

Secrets of a Summer Night (Wallflowers #1) by Lisa Kleypas | Only When It’s Us (Bergman Brothers #1) by Chloe Liese | The Year We Fell Down (The Ivy Years #1) by Sarina Bowen | Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston.

The Duchess Deal (Girl Meets Duke #1) by Tessa Dare | The Kingmaker (All the King’s Men #1) by Kennedy Ryan.

And there we go. Those are the romances books that I think y0u should pick up if you like reading young adult romances. Have you read any of these? Are you planning on reading these? What would you suggest? Let’s have a chat!

    Thank you for sharing this list. Romance is such a hard thing to find the right level of spice. Some are too mild, while others are incredibly spicy, and they can be sitting side by side in the store.

    What a fun approach to this week’s topic! I really like the idea of books bridging the gap between YA romance and more adult romance. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

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!
