*girlies being gender neutral like the word bro
I honestly don’t read all that often, with my ADHD and depression. It’s hard for me to pick something up and stick with it. However, for whatever reason, I decided to read heated rivalry and it’s direct sequel and I am desperate for a book that I can absolutely devour just like those two
Below are some things that would be nice to have or things that I enjoyed about those books (spoiler free!):
- romance
- happy ending
- angst!!!!!!!!
- modern, non-fantasy setting
- medium burn (I like some pining but sometimes it gets drawn OUT out)
- a lil spice is welcome! This is the first adult romance I’ve read and it felt a lot more real because of it
- I enjoyed the internal struggle of the characters but also really liked the having to come together against a larger force
Thanks so much in advance for your help! ♥️

Sarina Bowen has several romance series with modern + angst. I really liked the True North series but if you like the hockey specifically you might like the Brooklyn Bruisers series
Rainbow Rowell writes romance really well. I just finished Slow Dance, and it’s really good. It does have (realstic) slow burn, angst, complex characters. I really liked Land Line by her as well.
