One of the things that I love about reading is trying new-to-me authors and last year I read quite a few of those. Already in 2023, I’ve read a good chunk of authors that I haven’t read before and I wanted to share them with you. You can check out the first part of this series which I did earlier this year.

Reading authors that I haven’t read before is always daunting and exciting at the same time. I am so excited to try an author I haven’t read before, but I also have no idea how it will go. And that is the joy of reading. 

So here we go let’s get right into it. Here are more of the new-to-me authors I have already tried in 2023, from ones that have been on my tbr for a while to authors that I have just found. There are some authors on here that I have already read multiple books from and some that I might not try again. And as always these are in no particular order. 

Becca Steele: I’m still not sure how I feel about Becca Steele yet. I read the first two books in the Alstone High series and liked them enough to finish them. But I’m not too sure if I am going to read more. We will see

Kat Blackthorne: I came across this author randomly and I am so glad that I did. I read Ghost and ended up really loving it. I am so excited to read the rest of the series before. Kat just writes that I love; paranormal, why choose and a little dark. Yes, thank you. 

Harper A. Brooks: I picked up Harper A. Brooks because she is going to BABE next month and I’m so glad about that. It’s a very old-school paranormal romance and something I forget I loved. I’m really excited to read more. 

Maggie Alabaster and Jo Bradley: Since the first time I read both of these was by reading their co-authored books. I really enjoyed reading the Saving Abby series and I’m intrigued to read more. This is a why choose, with a rocker romance. 

Gemma Weir: I read Gemma before RARE and I didn’t want to stop. I had a lot of fun reading the Montana Mountain Men and I’m really excited to continue this series. It’s full of grumpy, possessive, alpha males from a small town. 

Trish Heinrich: This is another one of the authors that I just stumbled around and I am really glad that I did. I was expecting to like Bound as much as I did. I am excited to read more from Trish Heinrich, especially in this series. 

Helen Scott: Is an author that I will be meeting at BABE so I wanted to give her books a try before I bought any. And I ended up enjoying the one I read a lot. I not only want to continue this series but also may try something else too. 

Cassie Laelyn: Another BABE author that I tried out and ended up really enjoying. I read the first book in the Small Town Packs series and I loved that it was short and sweet. It hit the right post and I am super excited for more. 

And there we go. Those are some more of the new-to-me authors that I picked up so far in 2023. I had a good range of new-to-me authors that I picked up. I’m excited to read more from these authors and ready to read even more.

Have you read any of these authors? What did you think of them? Have you read any new-to-you authors this year? Let’s chat!
