Hi everyone,

I usually manage to dig around forums and such to find interesting books for myself, but recent weeks have been so mentally exhausting for me that I just can't bring myself to do that now... I've read all my favourites over and over and I really need something more, since the best way for me to relax is to read a good book, hence my request for recommendations :)

I dislike anything heavily into sex and BDSM, I do like me a nice love story :) I'd also prefer not to read anything too sad and heartbreaking because I've had too much of that in my life lately (so, for example, books by TJ Klune are a no-no because they're good but damn they can get sad!). Below I'm listing my favourite authors and books, if you like these, then maybe you could recommend me something else you like :)

  • Megan Derr: pretty much anything, I love her stories and worlds she creates
  • Angel Martinez: I love her AURA series, and the ESTO universe novels and the Brimstone stories... so most of the things she writes I guess :)
  • Madeleine Ribbon: the Faire series
  • Kaje Harper: the Love Lessons series and "Nor Iron Bars a Cage"
  • Charlie Cochet - most of her stuff, but primarily, of course, the THIRDS series
  • KJ Charles: the Magpie Lord universe books (I'm not a fan of her other stuff)
  • Lyn Gala - the Rownt books
  • Ann Sommerville - Kei's Gift series
  • Jordan Hawk: Widdershins and SPECTR series
  • Keira Andrews - Kick at the darkness series
  • LJ Merrow - Plumber's Mate series

I will be very grateful for recommendations, the more the better :)

How about M.L Rhodes? I've read some of his books and they're good if you are looking for low-angsty reads ... For all my problems in my life, I couldn't put down T J Klune's books :P even when I really need a pep-up I still ended reading his Bear, Otter and the Kid series, all in one go ... in a few days ... before I went for light-hearted reads ...

Out of your favorites, I loved 8 of them, so here's some of my favorites & hopefully you'll find something you like there :)
  • Anything by Alexis Hall - His stories are funny and touching. Reading his books is pure enjoyment.
  • American Love Songs by Ashlyn Kane - sweet, quirky and funny as hell!
  • The Hell Cop anthologies by Astrid Amara, Nicole Kimberling & Ginn Hale - three paranormal mystery stories per book
  • Adrien English series by Josh Lanyon - quality writing, better than average mystery & and an infuriating couple :)
  • Almost Like Being in Love by Steve Kluger - this one's a risk - many people don't like the format of the writing, but I personally loved it
  • Hidden Wolves series by Kaje Harper - since you loved her Life Lessons, I would recommend reading everything else she wrote, but this series is my personal favorite
  • Something Like series by Jay Bell
  • Tigers and Devils series by Sean Kennedy
