Less sex, more swoon: Elana Johnson's favourite feel-good romance books
Elana Johnson is a USA Today bestselling author of feel-good romance. Her latest book, The Love List, is the first in the new Hilton Head Island series. Here Elana shares some of her favourite romance novels and explains what she loves about books that are more about swoon than sex.
There’s nothing quite like the first touch. His hand brushes yours, and the thrill that sends down your spine… Mm, hm. The warmth in your chest now, the soft smile he sends your way, the sizzling chemistry that zings through the space between you. The axis of the earth suddenly feeling a little bit off-kilter. All of that is what makes feel-good romance so amazing. I love these types of romances, the ones that explore what falling in love feels like, looks like, and sounds like. Just because there’s not explicit content on the page doesn’t mean these feel-good romances won’t leave you salivating for more. They absolutely do!
And I’ve got some great places for you to start if you’re looking for this type of romantic escape. All of these books will transport you to a world where happily-ever-after dominates and that sweet, satisfying, feel-good romance will leave you breathless.
