Good Summer Romance Reads Novels & Stories

I could hear them laughing about something, their voices melding together in the warm summer wind. Audrey's hand rested comfortably on Ray's forearm, a diamond ring glinting in the sun. The wedding had been four days after the fire started in an intimate ceremony at the local chapel. The town had celebrated their wedding, throwing a party in the hotel where most of the evacuees were staying. Everyone said it was the best party in the history of the town, as everyone celebrated instead of worrying over something we had no control over.

“I bet you’ve never let yourself just… enjoy something, have you? Not like this.” Her fingers twitch against the textbook, knuckles white. “Chris—” “Shh.” I press my lips to the spot just below her ear, feeling the way her breath stutters. “No thinking. Just tell me yes or no.” My hand drifts higher, slow, giving her time to stop me. She doesn’t. The denim under my palm grows warmer, the muscle in her thigh tensing as my fingers graze the inward curve, just shy of where her legs meet. “I could make you feel so good, Emily. All you have to do is let me.”

He pulled Emma closer, kissing her deeply, pouring all his love and fear into it. “Whatever happens tomorrow,” he whispered, “I choose you. Always you.” She kissed him back with equal passion. “Then we face it together.” Outside, the rain began again…harder this time, as if the sky itself sensed the coming storm. Somewhere in the darkness, Lydia’s final ally was moving. And the lake house, their home, their sanctuary, was once again in the crosshairs. The summer that had begun with stolen glances and forbidden desire was ending in fire and blood.

Which should she listen to? “Hey, babe, help me load the basket?” “What basket?” She looked around and saw the red and white checkered picnic blanket and woven carrier. How wonderful. Something personal, yet not too intimate. She loved it. The sun would set in a little while and they could watch it together. The romantic in her peeked out. All the romance books she’d read over the years could be reality. As it was, Kasen reminded her of the heroes she read about in Bianca Sommerland’s romance books. That almost made her giddy. Almost.

She drops onto the couch opposite him, legs folding beneath her. “What’re you reading?” He lifts the book slightly. The Collected Stories of Nabokov. “Jesus,” she says, grinning. “You never change.” His eyes narrow faintly. “You say that like it’s a bad thing.” “I don’t know. Depends on how you were to begin with.” “Grace,” he says, her name like a warning—but there’s amusement too, buried under the low timber of his voice. “Are you trying to provoke me already?”

she cocked her brow, her tone matter of fact. “Obviously not, but there has to be a middle ground between bed rest and insanity.” “There isn’t. That’s why bed rest sucks.” She settled into the chair beside the bed. “Want me to read to you? I found this absolutely terrible supernatural romance where the werewolf heroine falls for a vampire—” “That sounds awful.” “It’s amazingly awful. That’s the point.” She opened the book, clearing her throat dramatically. “Chapter One: The night I met Aire was the night everything changed…”

She exuded the aura of a woman in control- as if she hadn't just weathered a heartbreak a month ago. As if she hadn't just signed a contract to publicly date someone for the sake of revenge. Damien emerged alongside her, decked out in a midnight-blue suit that matched the storm brewing in his eyes. Without a glance in her direction, his hand instinctively reached for hers, and their fingers intertwined. The crowd erupted into a buzz of excitement. "Mr. Cole! Is this your new girlfriend?" "Miss Vale, any comment on the engagement rumor?" Stopping briefly, Damien adjusted the cuff of his sleeve and responded smoothly,

By the seventh day, Grant decided to spend the day with Isabella and was currently sitting in one of the armchairs within the room, his laptop sitting on the coffee table in front of him as Isabella showered before dressing in her warm and comfy clothes like she had done the past few times. Currently reading a romance novel she had found called, “Our Forbidden Love” she instantly became hooked in a world filled with love and passion as well excitement. Occasionally glancing over to Grant as she read, his eyes always watching her as he did. A warm yet comfortable silence hung around the room as both carried on with what they were doing only to stop long enough to enjoy their lunch, which was

At the bottom of the shelf, though, were a handful of romance novels—in English, no less. I pulled out a historical romance by a favorite author of mine. I hadn’t read this one, and I’d already finished the one romance I’d brought with me. I was a total bore and preferred to read printed books still. Probably because they smelled nice. If e-readers could let out a puff of new-book scent, though, I’d buy one in a heartbeat. “The Seduction of Miss Emily Morris,” Olivier read over my shoulder. “That rather gives the plot away, no?”
