Must Read Rom-Coms

July 22, 2021

I often get asked for recommendations for a good contemporary romance book. Although my reading list this year has been all kinds of genres, this is my list of good love stories that are new releases of 2021. 

This is the heading

Tessa Bailey is back with a Schitt's Creek-inspired rom-com about a Hollywood “It Girl” who's cut off from her wealthy family and exiled to a small Pacific Northwest beach town... where she butts heads with a surly, sexy local who thinks she doesn't belong.

This is the heading

When Ros steps off a plane after four years away she’s in need of a job, a flat and a phone that actually works. And, possibly, her old life back. Because everyone at home has moved on, her parents have reignited their sex life, she’s sleeping in a converted shed and she’s got a bad case of nostalgia for the way things were. Then her new phone begins to ping with messages from people she thought were deleted for good. Including one number she knows off by heart: her ex’s. Sometimes we’d all like the chance to see what we’ve been missing…

This is the heading

Love Is Blind meets You’ve Got Mail in this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy following two thirty-somethings who meet on a blind dating app—only to realize that their online chemistry is nothing compared to their offline rivalry.

This is the heading

When the struggling station needs a new concept, Shay proposes a show that her boss green-lights with excitement. On The Ex Talk, two exes will deliver relationship advice live, on air. Their boss decides Shay and Dominic are the perfect co-hosts, given how much they already despise each other.

This is the heading

A writer for a popular website, love becomes the last thing on her mind when impending layoffs threaten her job. As Julia searches for the ultimate pitch to impress her boss, she stumbles upon a resort offering guests a chance to live out their romantic comedy dreams.

Paris is always a good idea

A thirty year old woman retraces her gap year through Ireland, France and Italy to find love - and herself - in this hilarious and heartfelt novel.

to sir, with love

Love is Blind, meets You've Got Mail in this laugh out loud romantic comedy following two 30- somethings who meet on a blind dating app - only two realize that their online chemistry is nothing compared to their offline rivalry.

The Secret Bridesmaid

The joy of an unexpected wedding proposal brings three best friends closer than ever, until a series of secrets are uncovered, and a dangerous obsession begins to spiral out of control. Saskia and Alex go to extreme length s to conceal damning lies from the past while Olivia wrestles with her life- threatening secret.

The Dating Plan

Daisy Patel is a software engineer who understands lists and logic better than bosses and boyfriends. With her life all planned out, and no interest in love, the one thing she can't give her family is the marriage they expect. Left with few options, she asks her childhood crush to be her decoy fiance.

If you’ve read any of these titles I’d love to hear your thoughts. You can comment below or send me a message on my Instagram, Goodreads or Facebook. I love talking books with you guys!


Happy Reading!

Shrek Jr. was absolutely AMAZING! 💚🎭I am beyond proud of Maddox for taking on such a huge role and absolutely crushing it as Shrek. Watching him own that stage with confidence, talent, and perfect comedic timing was something I’ll never forget.And Mia? She kicked butt up there! She brought so much energy and heart to every moment, and seeing these two shine together made this mama’s heart so full.Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be humming “I’m a Believer” for the next three weeks… and wondering if we have room for a swamp in the backyard. 💚✨#maddoxzachary #maddoxandmia #shrekjr #shrekjrthemusical #actorsconservatorytheater ...

We are so proud of you Mia Moore! You have grown up in this school with your brother and me. And now you are spreading your wings into middle school. My prayer for you is to be courageous, find your people and put all your trust in the Lord. It’s hard to believe that you won’t be going to school WITH me anymore, but I’m so excited for your new adventures. I love you more than words. #ohmiamoore
