Any romance readers?

Any romance readers, preferably not historical, willing to leave me some recs?

I'm pretty sure that the story that I just wrote is a romance, at least that honestly was the intent (erotic romance? I'm pretty explicit) but a few days of poking around at Wattpad leaves me thinking that I might have a bit of an outlier, in that I have a lot of people and events around this central story. So blah. Trying to pin down genre.

My plan is to read a few romances, not a genre I read much of, to see if mine fits the mold, or could be made to? I have no idea.

Crossposed to my author blog, but I don't think anyone reads it, LOL.

The Virgin River series by Robyn Carr (makes me want to move to Humboldt County)
Spoiler Alert and All the Feels by Olivia Dade ("curvy" heroines!)
One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston (a little bit fantasy, a whole lot LBGTQ romance)
Those should get you started. If you want more recs, you know where to find me! ;)

Thank you! I borrowed a few in ebook, one on audiobook, and one on hold. The Virgin River series appears to be about half a zillion books. Does order matter? I've got the first one on audiobook, but would put the second on hold if order is important.

The Virgin River books can each be read on their own, but they do reference stuff that happened previously. So you might get a bit more enjoyment out of them if read in order.

OK, that makes sense. I'll try to read in order.

Fingers crossed I can get some clarity here, at least in my own brain, ya know?
