I love hockey romances as much as the next person but sometimes you want another sport to take center stage. So here is a collection of sports romance books where one (or all of them) is playing a sport that isn't hockey.

Feel free to leave any recomendations for the list.

(Contains both YA and Adult romance)

Romance books with characters and a romance that feels mature. There is no or very low drama in the romance itself. It's often a slowburn, sometimes medium burn and feels very natural. The characters are either emotionally aware, possess a decent level of emotional intelligence, or are actively trying to communicate even if it's hard. Aside from the romance there is ample time for the characters to have growth on their own.

Keywords; Mature, slow/med burn, no drama, steady, emotional security.

A sports list to swoon over in 2026. Contains , F1 , Hockey, Football (UK soccer) , Bull Riding, etc

Always updating ranging from YA to 18+

where each narrator voices their own character(s) throughout the entire book, not just when it’s ‘their’ chapter

I have not read all of these - I do have a life

Football (soccer, if you must) romances.

there are wayyyy too many to keep track of so i’ll leave them here until they go into production/release

Another day in the AnaHuang Verse = falling in love was not the plan… but here we are

Books that have been made into a TV series or Movie

Sporty and Spicy (mainly 🏳️‍🌈)

non fantasy version

Just a bunch of sport romances with football/soccer as the main sport.

A list of all the books I've read and loved and 'sometimes' (most of the times 🙊) reread! It'd be books I'll forever recommend 💞

Yo queriendo elegir mi proxima lectura siendo un culo inquieto xd.
