Recs if you like Bitten...

I've been reading genre romance for going-on-30 years now and I wanted to highlight some of the books that I've enjoyedbut that have either faded into obscurity or never made it big to begin with. Be Aware! Some of these books are going to be pretty dated! Please check the original publishing dates so you know what you're getting into. I'm also happy to provide any CWs/TWs/heat levels for any book listed if you ask in the comments! (Note: I've also included some romantic fantasy/scifi in this list.)

These series openers feature ensemble casts and secondary plot arcs that stretch over multiple books. Multiple genres and eras of fiction are represented, and most series are complete while others are ongoing.

You howl, I howl, we all howl for werewolves!

Per r/fantasyromance these fantasies will alter you

it's 2009. you're in a borders. chris mcgrath has a (rightful) stranglehold on the covers of half the mass markets. you're looking for some magic, maybe some mystery, maybe some romance. let's see what's what.

I wish we could make communal lists, because this would be a helpful one to be able to ask others to contribute to

The best fiction you can find on Vampires and Werewolves and Witches. Feel free to recommend books for this list in comments section.

Urban fantasy at its best! Witches, warlocks, werewolves, dragons, demons and anything else living hidden among us

Werewolf romances 🥰 🐺

The fantasy series’s we were gagging for in the early 2000s.

Note: HP, Twilight, Hunger Games, and Divergent go without listing 👍

Books from different genres, all written by Canadians.

Books I'd recommend to anyone!

A good PNR series is like one of those desserts you always find more room for. Do you already have shelves full of lusty vampires, werewolves, witches, demons, ghosts, and fae? Yes, duh! But that doesn't mean there's not always room to add another, and another...

A list to include all my five-star reads. How many have you read?
