May is shaping up to be a fantastic month for romance lovers! With titles from both popular and new authors and a wide range of stories—from heartwarming romance to romantasy—this month’s releases are dominated by the genre. Here are the ones on my radar, as well as other exciting releases coming out this month:
Just JJ’s top pick:
Title: Silver Elite
Author: Dani Francis
Genre: Fantasy
(6 May)
In a world where the elite Primes rule with ruthless control, and Mods are hunted or enslaved, Wren Darlington walks a razor’s edge. Not only is she a Modified (Mod) with four forbidden psychic powers, but she is also secretly aiding the rebel Uprising. When a careless mistake leads her into the ranks of the enemy’s most elite military unit, her survival depends on keeping her abilities—and her growing attraction to her infuriating commander officer, Cross Redden—under control. But as the war between Primes and Mods intensifies, Wren must decide what she’s willing to risk: her life, her heart, or the future of the divided world.
