Happy Valentine’s Day, Readers.
Whether you're spending the day with someone special, getting the girls together for the ultimate gal-entines, or just spending time by yourself with a cozy night in bundled up with a glass of something sweet, there’s no better way to celebrate the season of love than by falling in love with romance novels.
I mean, it’s romance. It’s in the title of Valentine’s day, right?
Or subtitle.
Either way, I’m basically the best person to say so as your resident romance author.
As a romance reader as well, I’ve always believed that there’s something truly magical about the stories we create, especially when it comes to romance novels whether they are contemporary or fantasy.
Romance books are so much more than just love stories when it comes down to it. Romance and love stories is a celebration of hope, passion, and the belief that love and connection (romantic or not) is worth fighting for, no matter the obstacles. AND…
You’re worthy of it all.
Romance novels have a special way of taking us to places where hearts are full, lives are transformed, and every page is brimming with possibility of a better next.
For many of us, a good romance novel isn’t just an escape (though it is that too). Reading romance is a journey that keeps you flipping the pages until that final HEA.
There’s something about the way love unfolds on the page that feels both comforting and exhilarating. It reminds us that there’s always a chance for our own love story to be just as stunning.
So, let’s read this Valentine’s Day.
Romance.
Or any book you manage to fall in love with.
Do you have a favorite romance novel to share for readers to try this Valentine’s Day?
Maybe it is a different trope than they’ve tried before. Maybe you’ve read it at least a dozen times and it never gets old.
I want all the details.

Lose Yourself in the Characters
Honestly, the characters are my favorite part— both when it comes to reading and writing romance.
The magic of romance, in my opinion, lies in the connection between the characters and all their fun adventures and quirks that drive the story forward. Finding characters and maybe even a group of characters to love is super important when finding a favorite romance novel.
Let Yourself Be Swept Away
Romance novels are made for escaping reality. Allow yourself to get lost in the world of love, suspense, and angst. Embrace the emotions and enjoy the ride!
Embrace the Happily Ever After
The HEA is always key in a romance novel. Embrace the joy of the HEA and the journey to get there.
Read With Your Heart
Laugh, cry, swoon, and cheer for the characters as if their love story is your own. I love when a book makes me laugh out loud. There is something terribly satisfying about it.
Let It Spark Your Own Romantic Imagination
Romance novels can inspire you to dream big about love, relationships, and the possibilities of your own HEA whether it is impending or yet to happen yet. Because ultimately, books really are the givers of hope.
