No, I haven't read all 50 books, but after reading dozens of popular but disappointing Christmas romances, I did my research. I'm sharing them here! They're well-rated on most sites, even if some don’t have their ratings on PB yet. I hope you make some new discoveries! 🎄 There's something for everyone. 🎁

books that were better on audio

basically every memoir is also going to be better on audio, especially if the author narrates it, but I have a separate list for those

this has become one of my fav types of read, would love recs

Cute, cozy and festive for the nice. Spicy with a side of creative use of fairy lights for the naughty. Regardless if you want some ho-ho-wholesome or ho-ho-horny or a little bit of both, there is a holiday read for you.

Zachary Webber also known as Jacob Morgan is the audiobook world ~

The stakes are high and the tension even higher. The romance is unavoidable. This list has a focus where the two MCs are forced to be rivals. M/F romance with a variety of spice levels including YA and closed door so there should be a bit for everyone.

Thanks to the Pagebound Club for helping me compile a list. I haven’t read all these but I absolutely am going to work my way through. Let me know if you have any additional recs to add.

If dad-jokes were book titles, it would be pretty punny.
