Hate Mail by Donna Marchetti
Queen B’s Decree: I do love some witty banter. Hate Mail features the pen pal letters between Naomi and Luca since they were in the fifth grade, and man, they have some creative insults for each other.

The Backup Princess by Kate O’Keeffe
The Roommate Pact by Allison Ashley
Happily Never After by Lynn Painter
Queen B’s Decree: I can’t resist a Lynn Painter rom com. The way she uses “moron” or “dipshit” as affectionate terms of endearment just works for me. I loved so much of the banter in Happily Never After. Whether it was between Sophie and Max, or between her elderly roommates (LARRY FOREVER), I felt like […]
Love Under the Microscope by Emi Leon
Queen B’s Decree: Love Under the Microscope really felt like a traditional rom com, with Zelda and Parker on opposing sides, but coming together for a common goal.

Until they find each other on a dating app and start talking—and becoming best friends. They […]
Fancy Meeting You Here by Julie Tieu
Queen B’s Decree: Fancy Meeting You Here was a light and cute Rom Com. Elise is a florist, struggling to keep her studio alive, while simultaneously providing flowers for her three best friends weddings (all in the same time frame). Elise was a little bit complicated; as if she struggled with knowing her own self-worth. […]
My Favorite Kidnapper by Melanie Moreland
Queen B’s Decree: My Favorite Kidnapper was just so fun. Dante sees Brianna at his goddaughter’s wedding, and from then on, he’s obsessed. A little flirting, a little kidnapping, it’s all in good fun. Brianna and Dante have instant sparks, and despite how infuriating Dante is to her, Bri just can’t resist him. Their banter […]
