S07.40: Hot 2025 Summer Reads
We're both staying very still in front of air conditioners this week, so that means we're very happy to have a bunch of books at the ready! We're teeing up your piles of summer reads with our quarterly romance roundup! As a reminder, we haven't read most of these books -- but they're the ones toppling our TBR! Preorders mean a lot more than they should these days, so if there's anything on this list that makes you go "oh, yes. that's for me," and you're able to preorder from your local bookstore (or from Pocket Books Bookshop with the code PREORDER) or reserve at your local library. The authors on this list thank you.
As a reminder, Sarah has a new book out on July 8th -- go see her on tour in NYC, Chicago, Winston-Salem, NC, Newport, RI, Cambridge, MA, Decatur, GA, or Franklin, IN. There are a handful of tickets still available for Fated Mates Live in St. Louis, MO on July 8th! Join us!
If you can't make the tour, you can preorder These Summer Storms signed with a special romance dust jacket from The Ripped Bodice.
If you want more Fated Mates in your life, please join our Patreon, which comes with an extremely busy and fun Discord community! Join other magnificent firebirds to hang out, talk romance, and be cool together in a private group full of excellent people. Learn more at patreon.com.
