A list by Katelyn, Customer Service Specialist

 

Like romance? In your 20s? Can't relate to awkward and dramatic high schoolers? Also not into bodice-rippers and bonnet-rippers? This is the list for you! Here are some romance books that feature main characters in their 20s, in college, attending their friends' weddings, or starting their careers and falling/stumbling into love along the way. May contain some spice.
