Searching for a light-hearted and funny summer read? Well, look no further than the world of a little romance to ease your mind. With no shortage of new releases this year, 2023 is shaping up to be another great year for rom-com lovers. But how to narrow down your choices? Start from the top.

5. Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood


While physicist Elsie Hannaway is eagerly waiting for the opportunity for tenure at her job teaching thermodynamics, she needs a second income to help her get by. So this is where her other life comes in: Elsie is a fake girlfriend for hire! She has fantastic people skills, which she uses to be whatever kind of girlfriend her client needs her to be, which is never a physicist.

All of this is going fine until one day her two worlds collide. Her favorite client’s brother turns out to be the man who ruined her mentors career, who has undermined the reputation of people everywhere, and on top of all that, stands between her and her dream job. Jack Smith, the department head of the physics department at MIT.

As they grow closer, Elsie has to come to terms with her true feelings about her choices and someone she thought she had figured out.

4. Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni

Nar’s version of romance is not being proposed to in a gross bar, surrounded by drunk tech bros who may not even remember the next day. And when her boyfriend does just that, she realizes it’s time to find someone else to share her life with. Her mother thinks Nars needs to come home to Armenia and find herself a good local boy, of course.

Swoon-Worthy Spellcraft: 10 Best Queer Romantasy Books

June 29, 2025

So after her mother proposes that she come and explore Armenia for a month, she can’t say no. She’s looking for culture, and she instead finds Erebuni, who can only be described as “a woman as equally immersed in the witchy arts as she is in preserving Armenian identity.” As Erbuni takes her under her wing and shows her more and more about her culture, Nars realizes she may not have been looking for a man at all.

3. Secretly Yours by Tessa Bailey

Hallie Welch and Julian Vos almost had a moment when they were 14. Sadly, nothing came to pass between the two. Now 14 years later when Julian has come back home to write a novel, Hallie is secretly intrigued and curious about him yet again. When she’s hired to redo the gardens at his house, she dives head first into the task. And boy is she about to get quite the surprise. Julian is as different from Hallie as could be. Hallie is a chaotic bundle of energy, always running at 100% and full of color… and Julian is so buttoned up that he irons his socks. But as Hallie works in the gardens, Julian keeps getting distracted by her while she’s working. At this rate, he’ll never get his book finished.

2. End of Story by Kylie Scott


Susie Bowen is ready to start her DIY dreams and fix up the house left to her by her aunt. But when she walks in the front doors to chat with the repair man, she’s met with quite a shock. The man there is her recent ex’s best friend, Lars.

Even though she has to work with the enemy, Susie decides to accept her fate and moves forward in fixing up the house. That is until Lars finds a divorce certificate in the walls, dated 10 years in the future… and is between him and Susie. As the two try to figure out the document’s origins, they can’t deny the sparks flying between them. But is the relationship really already doomed before it’s even begun?

1. Just My Type by Falcon Ballard

Lana Parker is great at being a girlfriend. She has always been a long-term girlfriend, jumping from one long relationship to the next. But when she finds herself single, she is determined to stay that way and work on herself and her career.

Lana is a journalist who writes for the relationship and dating column at one of LA’s most up-and-coming websites. When her ex, Seth, joins the team they are instantly at odds with each other. Pitted against one another for a potential job, Lana has to write about how being single is while Seth writes about settling down. Whoever has the most popular column gets the job promotion. Nothing about their proximity to one another could go wrong… could it?

Time to finish off the summer season! Sit back, soak up the sun, and add a fun romantic comedy to the mix. It’ll be worth your while.
