People, June has arrived! It’s Pride Month. Even though you totally have to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community all year round, definitely take the chance to give them extra love during Pride Month. Share their successes, businesses, creations, and passions. Because we love books over here, today I’m sharing some romance titles you might want to pick up as soon as possible.
If you didn’t know, Pride Month takes place in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in New York City. They were the spark of something much bigger; they helped the gay rights movement, pushing forward political activism, and creating numerous gay rights organizations. One of the main leaders in the riots was a bisexual Black trans woman named Marsha P. Johnson, and after the events at Stonewall, she became a fixture in the community, always helping trans youth.
To celebrate Pride Month, let’s talk about some awesome books with LGBTQ+ representation.
If you’re in the mood for a historical romance with angst, this book is for you. InA Lady For a Duke, you’ll meet Viola Caroll, a young woman, who was presumed dead at Waterloo. She took that opportunity to finally live as herself. But that freedom cost her more than her wealth and title, it cost her the friendship of her best friend, the Duke of Gracewood.
Now, Gracewood is still grieving the loss of his friend and has decided to drown himself in alcohol and drugs. The arrival of Viola at his estate brings desire and attraction onto their lives.
But staying with her means he’s also staying with her adopted son Parker, a tough, tattooed man.This book will take you on an emotional ride with ups and downs and highs and lows. But you gotta trust Jack Harbon, because that happy ending is so worth it.

Keiran and Cherisse have never seen eye-to-eye, but organizing all of these events before the wedding, having all of these duties together, is bringing them closer… and maybe those fireworks they’re feeling aren’t just a one-time thing.
But she never expected Jordan Everwood, the lead carpenter for the inn’s renovation. Astrid wants modern while Jordan wants to preserve the history of the inn… The tension is running high and these two will have to leave their dislike for each other behind to turn this into something successful!
