I honestly love reverse age gap wayyy more than the traditional age gap 🫢 some of my favorites are Between Us by Cheyenne Cierra, The Idea of You by Robinne Lee, and On The Island by Tracy Garvis Graves!

So glad I found this video, this is my absolute favorite trope. Disgrace by Brittany Cherry is new to me, gotta pick that one up. I couldn't get into Pool Boy, but I'm going to have to give it another chance. Here's a few of my favorite Ow/Ym: The Age Between Us by Charmaine Pauls, Everything She Ever Wanted by Liz Durano, Why Him by Rie Warren Deflowered by Cory Cyr Family Blessings by LaVyrle Spencer. This one is old, but I loved it!

Thank you for those recommendations! I was looking for older woman younger man books that don't involve minors for ages. I love this trope and I also don't get why the guy is supposed to be older all the time. I really enjoyed crashed out by Tessa Bailey and well matched by jen deluca.

I agree! I love seeing the woman as the older one in the romance, it's not done often enough! I may do a part 2 to this video as I read more from this trope! Thanks for watching!

Washed Up was soooooo good! I love Kandi's writing! I've read Washed Up and Fair Catch. I've heard great things about The Right Player! I fell in LOVE with Sara Cate after reading Praise and Eyes on Me, so I'll definitely check out Burn for Me! Ooooo the guy is the sub?! YES PLEASE. Yeah, I know a lot of people had mixed feelings about The Doctor. I think I gave it 4 stars, but I definitely enjoyed The Pool Boy much more!
