    Looking for romance books that have the male love interests simply be kind, caring, and not toxic cause I can’t keep reading about terrible men 😭 the only example of a book I can think of with a man written by a woman is The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood and maybe Funny Story by Emily Henry so any suggestions welcome.

      Any of Emily Henry’s other books! Or try one by Abby Jimenez. Some favorites – life’s Too Short, Just for the Summer, or Yours Truly. Her new one, Say You’ll Remember Me was good too.

    2. Recs: Jeannie Moon’s 4 book Compass Cove series. Karen Foley’s 2 book Love Always, Ireland series. Also Nan Reinhardt’s 15+ Rivers’ Edge books. All at Tule Publishing (website, Facebook, B&N, Amazon, etc.)

      The Saint of Steel Series by T Kingfisher. The first three books in the series have broken paladins of a dead God sweetly pining, helping, and respecting the competent woman they are in love with (the sweet pining is true in the fourth book too but it’s an m/m romance)

      Truly madly deeply by Alexandria Bellefluer. Colin is down BAD for her from the beginning.

      Also hang the moon by the same author.

    5. *Where the Forest Meets the Stars.* I don’t like romance usually, but this book was so sweet that it actually made me cry. I probably liked it because the romance is secondary narrative.

      One of my favorite series is The Winston Brothers by Penny Reid but _[Beard Science](https://www.romance.io/books/57f88cefde896e8924934022/beard-science-penny-reid)_ is my absolute favorite. I have read every book with Cletus Winston and Jennifer Sylvester. I love them.

      And I loved the MMC in _[When Grumpy Met Sunshine](https://www.romance.io/books/65a8d8471d7f70fb2969d523/when-grumpy-met-sunshine-charlotte-stein)_. He is so grumpy but secretly just a big softie.
