Romance Books from a Guys Perspective

[@bethanybielamowicz9384]

Paradise problem by Christina Lauren is sooooo perfect for the tropes You like. You’ll love it!

[@BookishDaddy]

Just added it on goodreads and it does sound perfect!! Thank you 😊

[@BetsyAndTheBooks]

I clicked on this so fast lol! Some romance books for you I think you would like the Chestnut Springs series by Elsie silver they are cowboy romances and they do have spice in them

[@BookishDaddy]

I’ll go add them! I added the ones from instagram already 😊thank you so much for all the good recommendations:)

[@BetsyAndTheBooks]

@@BookishDaddyI would also recommend The Bromance Bookclub books also.

[@BookishDaddy]

@@BetsyAndTheBooks I’ve read the first two in that series and loved them!!!

[@Micmezle]

I often hear people, including authors say, that you don't need to read interconnected standalones in order. Yes, you do! Gosh darn it! The whole of it is so much better if you read the books in order. This is a hill I will die on. My number one pick for you is Quiet Beautiful Things by Samantha Christy. I cry easily, over pretty much anything but this one had me crying a couple of buckets at least. Another couple recs are Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan and All Rhodes Lead Here by Mariana Zapata

[@BookishDaddy]

All Rhodes has been mentioned a few times! I’ll have to look it up And yessss they have to be read in order 100%

[@AshWednesday06]

The High Mountain Court has fake dating and if I remember correctly also single bed moment. It’s a fantasy that I really enjoyed! Also A Curious Beginning (A Veronica Speedwell Mystery) is also fake dating/marriage one bed trope, I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. I loved the witty banter between the MMC and FMC!

[@BookishDaddy]

I added both to the TBR! Thank you 😊 they sound awesome

[@Jordan_elaine]

For single dad trope you MUST read Wild Love & Wild Eyes by Elsie Silver!

[@BookishDaddy]

Just added to the TBR! Thanks for the recommendation Jordan :)

[@ABookLikeYou]

I have read POYW and JFTS. I haven’t read YT yet. But JFTS is my favorite. 🥰

[@BookishDaddy]

You need to read it asap lol it’s so goood

[@Josandy]

I can’t remember a single dad trope though I’m sure I’ve read some. I also just read these three! Finished Just for the Summer like two days ago. Haha! Fake dating is my favorite! I liked the Spanish Love Deception, & the Unhoneymooners!

[@BookishDaddy]

@@Josandy fake dating is my favorite too! And you’re the second person to mention the unhoneymooners I’m definitely going to try it!!! What did you rate the three books?

[@brittanyschlaak4643]

I am not sure if you like these but you could try is things we never got over by Lucy score And Virgin River series Robyn Carr Christmas charms by Teri Wilson sea swept by Nora Roberts

[@BookishDaddy]

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely look them up this afternoon :)

[@AmandasBooktopia]

So glad you loved all the books! I also recommend Eleanor & Grey by Brittainy Cherry as it’s a single dad and nanny romance. I also loved Ask Me Why by Harloe Rae. It’s another single dad book. It is an indie book so most likely it’s not in book stores.

[@BookishDaddy]

Added to the TBR! Thank you for the recommendations 😁😁

[@AmandasBooktopia]

@ No problem!

[@chellsandbooks]

I love this video couldn't get here quick enough! I haven't read anything by Abby and have her been sent her arc so will be starting with that then reading all these! I loved You With A View by Jessica Joyce, Maybe Next Time by Cesca Major and The One That Got Away by Charlotte Rixon would recommend all these three.

[@BookishDaddy]

You should read her books asap she’s pretty amazing at portraying people and building a good romance

[@ABookLikeYou]

The way I ran here. 😆 In addition to the ones I already recommended in your IG stories, I’ll add Just Another Love Song by Kerry Winfrey (it has the single dad trope)!

[@ABookLikeYou]

I may as well tell you to read ALL of Kerry Winfrey’s books, because Very Sincerely Yours has the letter writing (You’ve Got Mail vibes) and kind of a single dad since the MMC takes care of his niece. 😊

[@BookishDaddy]

I added all the ones from instagram and I’ll add this one too! Thank you so much these all sound like perfect recommendations!!! I’ll let you know as I read them

[@hannahquarles5834]

My faves are all of the Elsie Silver series but id also recommend the Twisted series by Ana Huang and the Lucy Score's Things We Never Got Over

[@BookishDaddy]

@@hannahquarles5834 thank you Hannah! Everyone keeps mentioning Elsie Silver so it’s at the top of my list for sure :)

[@BookishDaddy]

@@hannahquarles5834 I tried twisted series and it may have been the audiobook but I was having trouble getting into it, I’m going to try the physical copy and see if it’s better

[@Sardonic_Zee]

I'm new to this genre so I can't recommend anything yet, I'm just taking notes lol. I'm on a book buying ban but you cemented my need for Part of Your World series, priority high on the amazon wishlist 😆. Are you a fan of dark romance or like toxic romance? I'm interested in Magnolia Parks and maybe the Brutal Prince series, but I always just gravitate back to fanro.

[@BookishDaddy]

Sorry for mentioning books during a ban 😂😂 I’ll try to be more careful I’m 50/50 so far on dark romance, I’m not sure about toxic what would classify as a toxic romance??

[@Sardonic_Zee]

@@BookishDaddy lol! Magnolia Parks is 'toxic romance'..Twisted Love is another I think. It's like the total opposite of cute, feel good, happy romance. Now that I think about it though I'm not entirely sure how it's different to dark romance. 🤷‍♀

[@BookishDaddy]

@ I’ve heard magnolia parks is good but I was not a fan of twisted love lol it was a weird vibe 😂 but I could try another one for sure

[@angelaholmes8888]

Recommendations Pushing the limit by katie mcgarry it's such a good read Dare you to by katie mcgarry this is my favorite book by the author very underrated The clearing by heather Davis it's a time travel romance also very underrated Stars in your eyes by kacen callender it's a queer romance read it also deals with serious issues in the book

[@BookishDaddy]

I’ll have to look these up this afternoon:) thank you so much for the recommendations as always

[@monkeyheadbonkers9303]

I am not sure any romances will compare to those three. They are the best. I also highly recommend The Cheat Sheet and the one that comes after that - by Sarah Adams. And Life's Too Short by good ole' Abby!

[@BookishDaddy]

@@monkeyheadbonkers9303 I’ll look those up! Thank you 😊 especially for the Abby recommendation

[@lottib77]

Maybe you would like these: -Elsie Silver ‘chestnut spring series’ (cowboy romance, especially the second one ‘ Heartless’ single dad / grumpy sunshine is my favorite one. Cade and Willa. Ooh my god Willa is a hoot!😂 that woman has got come backs and cracks me up! - Liz Tomforde the windy city series sports romance sooooo good. 3rd one is single dad, and fourth is fake marriage ( drunk Vegas wedding, he loved her for so long but she was not available) And i also think you would love Kristan Hannah. She writes heavy topics with a hint of romance. Read ‘The Women’ not so long ago. It’s about Nurses in the Vietnam war. Normally not my genre because it’s Historical fiction but i truelly believe it would be right up your alley. I loved loved her writing. - Mariana Zapata (queen of slowburn) ‘All roads lead here’ Grumpy single dad and she has trauma getting over her mom’s death. For cozy romance small town ‘gilmore girls’vibes read Laurie Gilmore books. ‘Pumpkin spice cafe etc.

[@BookishDaddy]

As always, tons of amazing recommendations I’ll have to go look up later! Thank you for watching and giving me your thought 😊

[@lottib77]

You’re welcome. Hope you like some of them. 😁

[@BookishDaddy]

@ I’m sure I will!

[@jodydiou]

I like your new microphone. 🎤 Now when I listen with headphones 🎧 it works fine in both ears! Before it was annoying and only worked in 1 ear. Thank you for the change.

[@BookishDaddy]

I’m glad! Sorry for the annoyances before I’m new to this and trying to make the experience better :) love the feedback

[@jodydiou]

@BookishDaddy please don't be worried about it. It wasn't that big of a deal. I love your channel and the only one headphones didn't stop me from watching.

[@Twiceborn_by_grace]

I think I’ve told you about the before, but I think you’d enjoy the Midnight Breed series by Lara Adrian…vampires and human women.

[@BookishDaddy]

Sure did man! It’s on my TBR still :)

[@Twiceborn_by_grace]

@@BookishDaddy There’s too much “pound cake” for me (11/22/63 by Stephen King joke). But other than that, they are really good.

[@BookishDaddy]

@@Twiceborn_by_grace pound cake 😂

[@Twiceborn_by_grace]

@@BookishDaddy I don’t mind pound cake, but don’t describe every ingredient and how long it takes to bake. 😂

[@BookishDaddy]

@ 😂😂😂😂 you’re killing me with that reference lol

[@Jennlovesreading]

My favorite fake dating book is The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren, I gave it 5 stars.

[@Jennlovesreading]

Also for an excellent grumpy sunshine try All Rhodes Lead Here by Mariana Zappta highly recommend and it’s single dad too.

[@BookishDaddy]
