As someone who devours romantic summer reads like ice cream on a hot day, I’ve noticed certain publishers consistently deliver the kind of books that make you want to lounge by the pool with a cold drink. Harlequin is a giant in the romance world, especially for lighthearted, beachy reads—their 'Summer Hearts' and 'Beach Reads' collections are perfect for escapism.

Avon Books is another favorite, known for titles like 'The Summer of Sunshine & Margot' by Susan Mallery, which blends family drama with swoon-worthy romance. For those who prefer indie vibes, Montlake Romance often publishes charming small-town summer romances with depth, like 'The Summer Deal' by Jill Shalvis. And let’s not forget Berkley, which consistently releases hits like Emily Henry’s 'People We Meet on Vacation,' a quintessential summer rom-com. These publishers understand the magic of summer love and deliver it in spades.

I’m a huge fan of romantic summer books, and I’ve noticed that publishers like Sourcebooks Casablanca and Gallery Books always deliver the goods. Sourcebooks has gems like 'The Summer of No Attachments' by Lori Foster, which mixes small-town charm with heartfelt romance. Gallery Books, on the other hand, publishes addictive reads like 'The Summer House' by Lauren K. Denton, perfect for lazy afternoons.

Kensington Books is another standout, especially for historical summer romances with lush settings. Whether you want contemporary fun or nostalgic escapes, these publishers have you covered.

Romantic summer books are my guilty pleasure, and I’ve found that certain publishers just *get* the vibe. St. Martin’s Griffin is fantastic for contemporary romance with a summery twist—think 'The Unhoneymooners' by Christina Lauren, which is equal parts hilarious and heartwarming. Grand Central Publishing also nails it with books like 'The Summer Seekers' by Sarah Morgan, full of adventure and romance.

For something more literary but still breezy, Algonquin Books offers gems like 'The Summer Wives' by Beatriz Williams, blending romance with historical intrigue. And if you’re into steamy summer flings, Entangled Publishing’s 'Bliss' line is packed with sizzling stories. These publishers know how to capture the sun, sand, and sparks of summer love.

Don't Date Your Best Friend (The Unfolding Duet 2 Books)
He shouldn’t have imagined her lying naked on his bed. She shouldn’t have imagined his devilishly handsome face between her legs. But it was too late. Kiara began noticing Ethan's washboard abs when he hopped out of the pool, dripping wet after swim practice. Ethan began gazing at Kiara’s golden skin in a bikini as a grown woman instead of the girl next door he grew up with. That kiss should have never happened. It was just one moment in a lifetime of moments, but they both felt its power. They knew the thrumming in their veins and desperation in their bodies might give them all they ever wanted or ruin everything if they followed it. Kiara and Ethan knew they should have never kissed. But it's too late to take that choice back, so they have a new one to make. Fall for each other and risk their friendship or try to forget one little kiss that might change everything. PREVIEW: “If you don’t want to kiss me then... let’s swim.” “Yeah, sure.” “Naked.” “What?” “I always wanted to try skinny dipping. And I really want to get out of these clothes.” “What if someone catches you... me, both?” “We will be in the pool, Ethan. And no one can see us from the living room.” I smirked when I said, “Unless you want to watch me while I swim, you can stay here.” His eyes darkened, and he looked away, probably thinking the same when I noticed red blush creeping up his neck and making his ears and cheeks flush. Cute. “Come on, Ethan. Don’t be a chicken...” “Fine.” His voice was rough when he said, “Remove that sweater first.”

“You.” I snapped my head up. A naked man marched into the kitchen. Heat rushed to my face. The man draped in tattoos and bronze skin glared at me. “What are you doing here?” I squeaked. “I should be the one asking you that.” He closed the gap between us, and his body slammed against mine, pinning me against the door. His hand wrapped around my neck. I dug my nails into his flesh but he didn’t flinch. “You’re with the Red Claw pack aren’t you?” He sneered and tightened his hold. “Screw…you,” I rasped. “Ezra,” Dad barked. “What?” “Put her down. She’s my daughter.” His hold loosened and I dropped to the floor. I held my neck and glared at him. “You have an eighteen-year-old daughter?” Alpha Ezra asked.

Summer romances that get the big-screen treatment are some of my absolute favorites! 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' by Jenny Han is a perfect example—it’s a sweet, nostalgic coming-of-age story with a love triangle that got adapted into a hit series. The book captures that fleeting summer magic so well, and the adaptation nails the vibes. Another classic is 'The Notebook' by Nicholas Sparks, which became an iconic movie. The chemistry between Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams is legendary, and the book’s emotional depth shines through. For something lighter, 'To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before' by Jenny Han is a delightful rom-com with a charming film adaptation on Netflix. The story of Lara Jean’s fake-turned-real relationship is pure joy. 'Me Before You' by Jojo Moyes is another great pick—though it’s more bittersweet, the movie adaptation does justice to the heart-wrenching love story. If you’re into quirky, fun romances, 'The Hating Game' by Sally Thorne got a movie adaptation that’s just as entertaining as the book, with fantastic chemistry between the leads.
