50 Ways to Find Romance at your Local Library

No, not that kind of romance, silly! Not that we don’t know some wonderful couples who first met at the public library, but we’re not recommending our libraries as pick up spots: that would be creepy. However, every week dozens of new fresh romance novels arrive on our shelves, ready to be taken home by you. We’ve just updated our Romance Staff Picks list in the catalog with fifty fresh new titles; here’s a taste of what you’ll find there:

Miss Lattimore’s Letter, by Suzanne Allain
When Sophronia Lattimore put pen to paper after overhearing what seemed like some misguided matchmaking, she thought she was saving the day. But little did she surmise the persuasive power of her epistolary wit to sway the errant hearts of others. This sweetly funny novel of Regency era romantic intrigue is a sparkling rom-com in the best Jane Austen tradition.

Hana Khan Carries On, by Uzma Jalaluddin
Between waitressing at Three Sisters Biryani Poutine, her family’s struggling restaurant, interning at a Toronto radio station, and secretly producing her podcast, Hana has her hands more than full. Then handsome Aydin Shah starts moving in on her territory, his sheep’s clothing barely hiding his wolfish side. This charming contemporary romance doesn’t shy away from serious issues.

I’m Only Wicked With You, by Julie Anne Long
When headstrong Lady Lillias Vaughan first matches wits with ambitious American businessman Hugh Cassidy, the fireworks are clear for all to see. Destined to be either ferocious enemies or ravenous lovers, the complicated pair may discover a third way, rare and rewarding, but oh so difficult to manage. This lush and passionate historical romance is highly seductive.

Satisfaction Guaranteed, by Karelia Stetz-Waters
Serena is taking a break from sex after her recent affair with a married woman went sour. Then her employer Ruth dies, leaving her business  equally to Serena and to Ruth’s no-nonsense niece Cade. The catch? They have just a month to save it from bankruptcy. Can this oddly-matched couple resist transcending a merely professional relationship as the new co-owners of a sex-toy shop?

A Lowcountry Bride, by Preslasya Williams
The siren song of success in the world of high fashion called Maya Jackson to New York City, but when her father is injured a stronger calling brings her home to Charleston. While there, she helps widower Derek Sullivan rebuild his life and his struggling bridal shop, forced to sift through competing values and allegiances while wrestling with a secret of her own. Moving romance with real life issues

We’ve only scratched the surface; find 45 more great new romance novels on our latest list.
