If you read this blog, you know I'm a HUGE romance fan. You can watch a video of my co-worker and I talking about romance books on our Book Recommendation video here.
Sometimes pictures share a better story, so here are the top ten adult romances I can't wait to read this year! Believe me, there are several more I'm excited to read....
Are you excited to read any of these too?

This summer, I'm actually going on a short vacation. If you're a Children's/Teen Librarian, taking vacations in the summer is really hard because that's the busiest time of year. But this year, things of course are still a little bit different. So here are some books I'm hoping to take on vacation and read by the pool/ocean.
Samiah never imagined that the man she's dating would be a cheater, nor would she be in a video that goes viral when she discovers his deception. However, she does become friends with the two other women in his life. Together they make a pact to work on themselves and their goals before finding another man to date.My Thoughts: I loved this book. I didn't want to put it down and was almost late for work because I had to finish it. I loved the blossoming friendship between these women. I loved that Samiah was working towards her dream. I loved her work ethic, her determination, and her giving back mentality. I felt terrible for her as she described the pressure to be better because of both her race and her gender. I did enjoy the work place moments; the company she works for seems great. I loved her flirty moments in the office with Daniel. And there are two more books coming! I can't wait to read them!!
For Samiah, that means finally working on the app she's been thinking about for years. With some free time, she just might be able to develop the proto-type.
That is if she can keep her mind off her new sexy co-worker.
