Recs if you like Unmasked by the Marquess...

Because we‘d all kneel for a cute nerd (or bespectacled hottie in general) 🥵📚 Collection of romance books where the MMC wears glasses and looks fabulously hot in them 😍 Bonus points if there is a scene where he takes them off to kiss his partner harder 🔥🌶️ Recommendations are always very much welcome (also I haven‘t read every single book on here, so please feel free to correct me if one doesn‘t fit)

Romance reads across genres with childfree characters/storylines. This shows up in different ways. Its either a given, not a part of the plot or a conclusion. That said, it doesn't necessarily mean there aren't any child characters in the story. If you need details I'll dig into my memory to verify. I'm open to recs, but I want to be really clear about the nature of their childfree status, so any explanation you can provide would be great.

adult genre romance stories where at least one main character is trans and/or non-binary! i haven’t necessarily read or recommend all the books included here; please lmk if anything is incorrect. Also this list is white and transmasc leaning so def please leave any recs in the comments! i’ve mainly excluded erotica, as my goal for this list is genre romance, but most books listed do contain sexual scenes (varying levels of explicitness)

I went through all the books in the romance quest tab and here are all the ones where at least one of leads is in a relationship that is not "man and woman falling in love with each other." F/F, M/M, F/NBi, M/NBi, NBi/NBi, etc. Largely motivated by wanting to figure out which romance book quests I had a chance of getting the badges for. If I missed any, let me know. Quest specific info in the pinned comment.

For people who love watching Bridgerton for its diversity and want to read more historical romances that are genuinely diverse

Romance books with (at least) 2 bisexual main characters.

Happy International Non-Binary People's Day! Here's a pile of books that our rec list contributors love that feature non-binary representation (some explicit, some subtextual/interpreted - so your interpretation may differ, and that's okay!). (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

Romance novels where the MCs are an MF couple that is straight-presenting, but one or both is/are queer

A list of faves

queer romances with friends to lovers!

Yes, we all love a Stern Brunch Daddy, but what if that dominance is paired with a genius mind and a feeling that numbers never let you down? Below are not just grumpy-sunshine (though many are) or just Mr. Darcy in STEM (though a few are), or autistic-coded (almost all are). These are MMCs who seek peace through order and control. They have RULES for how things MUST go and wouldn't it be a shame if they set aside their ledgers for a good, hard frolic?
