The Most Anticipated New Romance Books of March 2024:

This Could Be Us
by Kennedy Ryan

Single Parent Romance
Releasing March 5, 2024

Soledad Barnes is a domestic goddess who’s always had her life all planned out. But none of her varied talents can save her when her life implodes from the ultimate betrayal. Picking up the pieces and caring for her daughters, Soledad rediscovers herself.

But then an unlikely man enters the picture—the forbidden one, the one she shouldn’t want but can’t seem to resist only she’s not sure that she can risk her heart and trust in love again. 

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: This book made my list of most anticipated romance books of 2024 because I already fell in love with Soledad after reading Ryan’s 2022 release, Before I Let Go, and cannot wait to get her story this year about finding trust and love again after her cheating husband upends her life.

I also especially love the sisterhood between Soledad and her girlfriends that permeate the entire Skyland series! I have a feeling Ryan’s book is going to bring it with this one!

The task was simple. Sneak into Potomac’s most heavily guarded manor. Steal back my pendant. Slip out. Only America’s most unattainable bachelor caught me and decided to keep me. As the help. Zachary Sun is reserved, calculated, and savagely cruel,and he thrives on the weaknesses of others. Little does he know, he just met his match. He may be American royalty. But this peasant will rise to become Queen.

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: It’s been a hot minute since I read a book by Shen (and this would be my first by Huntington!) so I’m wondering if this is the one to bring me back.

It’s available in Kindle Unlimited so that sort of seals the deal for me to check it out with my Kindle Unlimited subscription. Plus, I’m anxious to see how the feisty maid stands up to the grumpy billionaire.

But because her future father-in-law is her dad’s cutthroat boss, she enlists the help of a professional objector, whose purpose is to show up at weddings and proclaim “I object!”

After learning more about his job, Sophie teams up with Max and the two love cynics start going from wedding to wedding, while trying to ignore their off the charts chemistry. But when a groom-to-be hires Sophie to object at a wedding that involves the woman who broke Max’s heart, she realizes that she may have fallen hard for her partner in crime.

The American
by Jodi Ellen Malpas

Contemporary Romance
Releasing March 12, 2024

A domineering force in Miami’s criminal underworld, Brad Black is respected. Feared. His sole life purpose was to protect the Black empire until he saved her.  Pearl Kennedy is Brad’s kryptonite.

Since Pearl was saved from the clutches of human traffickers by one of the world’s most notorious criminals and taken back to Black’s family’s mansion in Miami, she’s felt safe and protected, despite Brad’s cold, brusque, and confusing treatment. But it’s just a matter of who will end her first – the monsters from her past or Brad Black.

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: It’s been a hot minute since I read a romance by Malpas and this one sounds intriguing given the anti-hero Black and the young woman who brings him to his knees. I have a feeling it may push my comfort zone but I’m willing to risk it to see how their chemistry burns.

by Pam Goodwin

All the Tropes!
Releasing March 12, 2024

As she delves into their mysterious pasts, she uncovers an insidious evil that feeds on loyalty and uses love as a weapon. Nothing is as it seems. These men torment her, protect her, and keep her in the dark. But to have any chance of escape, they must stand together. Or fall prey to the evil in the hills of shivers and shadows.

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: I have no idea what I’m going to get myself into when it comes to this dark romance but if Pam Goodwin is writing it then I’m trusting her to give me a really great story with lots of steam. This year I made a reading goal to read more dark romance to get out of my comfort zone so I thing this one will get me closer to that goal!

The Home Wrecker
by Sara Cate

Couple Romance
Releasing March 25, 2024

I never claimed to be a good man, but I’ve always done what was expected of me. Find a nice girl. Get married. Have children. And everything was going as planned when I met Briar. But marriage is hard, and after seven years, I feel like I’m failing. Then, a figure from my past enters the picture.

Dean Sheridan is cocky and charming. When this twenty-five-year-old needs a place to stay, I should turn him away—especially after I notice the spark between him and my wife. But I don’t. When I pressure him about his relationship with Briar, he does the last thing I expect. He dares me.

He thinks he can take what’s mine. And if it’s a challenge he wants, it’s a challenge he’ll get. What started as a game becomes so much more. Between them. Between us. This isn’t how normal couples behave. The games we’re playing are dangerous. But God help me, I can’t seem to stop.

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: I love that Sara Cate unabashedly writes taboo romance and I’m really digging that this new release is about a married couple. Plus, I really, really want to meet Dean and his cockiness so I’m hoping this is one steamy read for the month! Plus this cover is divine.

The Trail of Lost Hearts
by Tracey Garvis Graves

Forced Proximity Romance
Releasing March 26, 2024

When the world delivers two life-altering blows, Wren Waters just wants to put the whole heartbreaking mess behind her and starts disappearing into the world of geocaching.

She decides that a weeklong solo quest geocaching in Oregon is exactly what she needs to take back control of her life but then she runs into fellow hiker, Marshall Hendricks, struggling with a life-altering blow of his own. When Wren and Marshall partner up to look for additional caches, their platonic road trip gradually blossoms into something deeper.

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: Graves has this way of really delivering the drama in her romance books and creating some amazing characters so I’m looking forward to reading this new release this month. I’m also excited to see this romance bloom around the hobby of geocaching which is super unique angle to this story.

The Other Side of Disappearing
by Kate Clayborn

Contemporary Romance
Releasing March 26, 2024

Jess Greene has spent the last decade raising her younger half-sister, Tegan—and keeping a shocking secret – that her mother ran off with a boyfriend, a con man who was the subject of a wildly popular podcast, The Last Con of Lynton Baltimore.

Only now Tegan has pieced together the connection and plans to search for their mother with the prying podcast host and her watchful, handsome producer, Adam Hawkins in tow. Together, the four make their way across the country, unraveling the mystery of where the couple disappeared to and why. But soon Jess is discovering other things too, like an unexpected connection with Adam.

Why You Should Add It to Your TBR List: I get a sense that this new release may skirt the line between women’s fiction and romance but I enjoyed Clayborn’s release from last year, Georgie All Along and hope that I enjoy this one just as much.
