Definition of "Contemporary Romance": While technically a subgenre of the Romance category, that category is much too large to not be broken down. Contemporary Romance, by definition, is set in the time in which it was written.  The ebooks in this category are largely focused on the relationship and romantic love shared by two people.  Typically, ebooks in this category reward characters that are good people, punish those that are bad, and end with an upbeat, positive conclusion.  But, that "formula" is always being altered by excellent authors--which is why we read their ebooks, right?

 

Some examples of the best Contemporary Romance ebooks past and present include Nicholas Sparks (The Longest Ride), Tracy Brogan (Crazy Little Thing), Jojo Moyes (Me Before You), Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook), Lisa Kleypas (Blue-Eyed Devil).

Twice Taken: An MFM Romance

by Chloe Lane

We rescued her. Now it’s time for her to pay her debt.

Addison Miller is on the run from somewhere when her car breaks down two blocks from our shop in the middle of the night. She doesn’t have any choice but to ask us for help.

And there’s no way we could refuse that sweet, innocent woman…not when she happens to be so gorgeous that she has both of us falling for her at first sight.

There’s only one problem. She doesn’t have a way to pay us, and we don’t work for free.

I’m caught between a rock and a hard place.

The two tattooed mechanics who come to my rescue in the middle of the night on my very first night in town are not the kind of guy I’d normally go for. Then again, my taste in men is exactly what made me run in the first place.

I don’t have enough money to pay them for fixing my car, and I should hate the fact that there’s only one way out of this. I shouldn’t want their hands on my skin. I shouldn’t want to submit to them.

But I can’t help myself…

Twice Taken: An MFM Romance is is a quick, dirty, steamy standalone MFM romance with two dirty-talking alpha heroes who will have you melting, a heroine who’s head-over-heels, and a sugary sweet HEA. If you’re looking for something over the top and molten hot, this is it! As an MFM romance, this story is all about her, so relax and enjoy...

Just This Once (Last Frontier Lodge Novels Book 3)

by J.H. Croix

A steamy, full-length, standalone romance with a guaranteed HEA from Amazon Bestselling author J.H. Croix! If you like smoking hot romance with alpha men and strong women, you’ll love this series!

Just This Once is a friends to lovers story between a brilliant prosecutor who’s sworn off love and a Navy SEAL who’s been hiding his feelings for too long. Becca Hamilton is a busy prosecutor who’s dedicated and passionate about her work. After being left high and dry days before her wedding several years ago, she promised herself she wouldn’t let her heart become vulnerable again. Yet, she didn’t count on temptation in the form of Aidan McNamara.

Aidan McNamara is many a woman’s dream—a tall, dark, sexy-as-hell military type who tends to save the day so often it’s annoying. Becca has been quite successful at ignoring the spark that burns every time Aidan is near. Until he shows up and happens to save her evening. One scorching hot kiss on a rainy night, and Becca begins to question the limits she set for herself. She gambles she can allow herself just one night with Aidan.

Aidan has been half in love with Becca since the first time he laid eyes on her. A chance encounter kindles hope in his heart. He can’t say no when she asks for one night, but he knows from the start he wants more.

Becca quickly discovers that ‘just once’ won’t even come close to satisfying her desire. She’s completely unprepared for the depth of feelings Aidan elicits. Forced to take a much-needed break from work, she decides a journey to Last Frontier Lodge in Alaska might give her some perspective and a long overdue adventure. A trip she hoped would clear her head only leaves her missing Aidan so much she can hardly stand it.

Aidan is a man of plans and action, but with Becca, he’s winging it every step of the way. When she takes off to Alaska, he finds himself following her even though it goes against his grain. Can Becca let down her guard long enough to let Aidan into her heart? Can Aidan convince her he’s worth more than just once?

*All novels in this series are full-length standalone novels with an HEA.

Tempt Me Like This: The Morrisons

by Bella Andre

BOOK DESCRIPTION: From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Bella Andre comes the second book in a new contemporary romance series about The Morrisons! More than 6 million books sold so far!

As one of the biggest rock stars in the business, Drew Morrison can have anything--and anyone--he wants. Only Ashley Emmit, who has joined his tour to work on a college research project, is completely off-limits. Drew promised her father that, once the tour was over, he would send her home pure and untouched by the rock 'n' roll world. But he has never been so tempted by anyone in his entire life. How is he going to make it through this tour without giving in to the urge to drag her into his arms and kiss her breathless?

Ashley has always lived by the rules. But from the moment she meets Drew, none of those rules make sense anymore. Not only does Drew's music affect her deeply...but she's never wanted to kiss anyone so badly. Not that a magnetic star like Drew would ever feel the same way about a brainiac like her, of course. And even if he did, she knows from painful experience that two people as different as they are simply don't belong together.

But when the attraction between Drew and Ashley burns hotter every moment they're together on the tour bus--and they begin to share their deeply hidden and emotional secrets--will either of them be able to resist temptation? Or could giving in to their feelings lead them straight toward a love they never saw coming...

DREAMS DON'T WAIT
...will he?


Evan North finally catches a break, free rent on a small cabin in exchange for being a part-time nanny. She can't believe her luck. Not only will she have a comfortable home for her and her son, Cal, she'll have the chance to save the necessary money for his school fund, and put herself to within a heartbeat of realizing her own long-held dreams.

Dreams put on hold while she raised her son.

Dreams she wears like armor against the seductive appeal of her new employer.

Linc Stewart, until now a globe-trotting architect, wants to settle down with his young daughter Jenny and provide her a more stable home life with no complications. But when he becomes attracted to Evan, things get complicated to the max--in ways a man accustomed to getting what he wants doesn't begin to understand.

Linc, now with a dream of his own, sets out to convince her otherwise.

But wow, there's so much more to him than I expected.
Not that it matters really, my heart and mind are trapped in the past.

So when Katie Taylor offers to drive me across the country, how can I say no? She is my dream girl after all. Always has been.
