Contemporary Romance
Slide 3 of 6
I love a good, clean, Christian contemporary romance. Most of the time if the plot catches my interest, I’m in. However, there have been so many times that I have picked up romances that sound great but are full of profanity and graphic sex. No, thank you. This is not the material that the Lord wants us to read, plus it can mess with our minds, convincing us that sin like swearing and casual sex is okay.
If you’re looking to be swept off your feet with all the feels, these books will do the trick.
1. Cowboys Marriage of Convenience by Alexa Verde
This box set contains four books with a marriage of convenience trope. These romances offer a standalone reading experience and are filled with love and family.
2. Just a Cowboy’s Convenient Marriage by Jessie Gussman
According to Smith Long’s aunt’s will, he has to get married before he can inherit the property she’s promised him. However, he’s not marrying just any woman, he has to marry Abrielle Adams, the woman squatting on his ranch! Jessie Gussman is one of my new favorite authors and I highly recommend her work.
