Welcome to the next segment of the Elite Romance series of 2023. This post is where I am going to list my TOP reads of the year, which wasn’t easy to narrow down. I have had a amazing reading year and I am thrilled to be able to share all the delicious reads that I have here.
In this segment, this is where I showcase my favorite reads of the year that were newly published this year. There definitely were some gems and so many good treats. I didn’t get to all the newly published books as I wanted to, but I got to so many goodies!
This historical romance was so refreshing. This was also my first time reading this author and I was so impressed. Her writing while does have some modern themes in it, was lighter than most others these day and I loved how attentive the heroine was to the hero’s needs and desires too.
You can never go wrong with Bittner. And she delivered all the stars with this one. If you love Jake and Randy, you will have a blast with this one. There is so many reveals in this one
This was such a win for me. I loved this book so dearly and its basically an extension of the Adair family. The setting is so rich and I loved the suspsense theme here.
Catherine Cowles can do no wrong and I had so much fun with this release. She just writes such the most memorable romances especially if you love small town suspense themes.
This was such a win and how long have we waited for a Meghan March release? Years lol And it was superb. its closed door which really shocked me but I loved getting back to this couple and the suspense vibes were perfection
I am really loving this author. I love how he writes UF. Even though the romance aspects were less focused, the story was really fantastic. I am eager for what is to come.
Anna Hackett has really stepped up her writing with this sci fi world she has created. I just loved this one and eager for more. I need the next book like now haha
What a fun book this one was. It does start out a bit slow but once you get going, you will need to buckle yourself in and PINK DRAGONS!!! lol The romances we see were truly wonderful to see. Love what Kerrelyn Sparks has written here.
What a FUN book. I had a blast with this one. It felt a bit rushed in the third act, so I do think this book could have been 50 pages longer just to give us a bit more with the couple, but the meet cute was so unique.
This book was a BLAST! There is nothing better than Singh’s bears. I swear they are so fun. The sense of family and connection in this book was just beautiful.
I feel like I have been waiting forever for this one but its only been about 10 months. But it was everything and more. I loved how the hero wasn’t a psychopath, just more emotionally disturbed so added something different.
I loved this one, and it was so different but unique. The retelling aspects of Hunchback of Notre Dame were fascinating. While it’s not my favorite of the series,
This series each book has been so amazing. Honestly I think its this authors best work. This story was so entertaining. I just had a blast with it. Such a wicked psychopath and I was on board for it.
This book was everything and it was so different from what I expected it to be but it was super delightful. I do think fans of the author and series will enjoy it and had a less dark feel to it.
Neva Altaj writes some of the best mafia romance I have read. They are so splice of life without the crazy plots some authors write. I just had a fun time with this arranged marriage. Super delightful.
What a great read this turned out to be. I really loved this age-gap romance. this was my favorite release from this author for the year.
Nikki Sloane is such a delightful author to read. I just love her work so deeply. She really writes erotic romance so well, there is always deep heart with the high spice.
This was one of my favorite queer romances. I adored every part of this book. It had such a unique taste to it and I was drawn so easily into it.
Linda Kage is my New Adult catnip and I just love how this small town romance was written. Very endearing and had all the heart that this author writes in her books.
This MM romance was epic and beautiful and just so heart endearing. J. Daniels just writes the best work. And this MM romance was delightful. And it really packed the emotional punch
So I really had a fun time with this one. Its very delightful although a bit long. But fans of the series will have such a great time with this book. It is well developed and the setting really pulls you in.
I loved both Cowles’s and Daniels’s books. It was nice to see them make your favorites.
I love seeing Glimmers of You included! You know I adore Catherine Cowles, too, and the Lost and Found series has been wonderful.
I’m blaming you for my absurd to-read list. Just letting you know now LOL. You obviously had an incredible reading year 🙂
Cowles is an author I keep meaning to read. I see so much praise for her books. The Asher series is fun too
I loved Harmony of Lies, but haven’t read any of the others. Great pics!
I’m a Sands fan. Love her books.
Loved Resonance Surge and I’m listening to Bad Luck Vampire right now and laughing my head off! I’d like to try Bittner at some point.
I still need to read the newest Jake and Randy. Loved Resonance Surge, too.
