New Romance Releases Coming Soon

Fact: The romance genre has tripled since 2020, which means there has never been a better, or more overwhelming time, to be a reader.

But let’s be real: with thousands of new books hitting shelves and Kindles constantly, who has time for a subpar read? We aren’t here to just dump a massive, endless list of releases in your lap. We’ve read literal thousands of romance novels, and we use that obsession to separate the hype from the hits. Consider us your personal romance librarians, hand-selecting and tracking only the upcoming authors, series, and tropes that are actually worth your time.

New Releases 2026

The backhalf of 2026 is all about sequels, fright, and the Holidays.

There are some big titles coming include Vine of Hearts by Julie Soto (Dec 1) and Knave and the Moon by Rachel Gillig (Sep 1) along with what looks to be Holiday fun in A Very Psycho Christmas by Layla Fae (Nov 30) and The Heist Before Christmas by Lucy Score (Nov 10). And, while it’s not released yet, we bet there will be an Amazon Originals series of novellas, too. Last year’s featured Ali Hazelwood and Hannah Bonham-Young. See our review HERE.
