Good Minds Suggest: Vi Keeland's Favorite Heartfelt (and Sexy!) Romances

Posted by Goodreads on July 17, 2017

Sometimes Prince Charming is easy to find. Vi Keeland, author of Bossman and Stuck-Up Suit, met her future husband when she was six. The characters in her books? It usually takes them a little more time—and a lot more heartache.

In Beautiful Mistake, Keeland's latest book, Rachel and Caine meet at a bar…when Rachel mistakes him for the jerk who betrayed her best friend. It's only an embarrassing, forgettable blunder until Rachel starts her first day as a teaching assistant and discovers that Caine, or Professor West, is her boss. Cue the awkward, naughty shenanigans!

Keeland shares the steamy books that make her heart race, the story that "hurt almost as much as" she loved it, and the romance author she relies on for emotional happily ever afters.

Bared to You by Sylvia Day

"Two words: Gideon Cross. Most of the romance world has read this series by now, and there's a good reason for that. Day created a hero who truly made me swoon—with his damaged heart and all."

Black Lies by Alessandra Torre

"This was such an intricate and beautifully woven story. I remember my heart racing my eyes to the end of each page. The touching backstory was unique and surprising."

Undeniable by Madeline Sheehan

"I'll let the author's words from the prologue speak for themselves: 'Mark Twain said the two most important days in your life are the day you were born and the day you find out why. I don't remember the day I was born, but I remember the day I found out why. His name was Deuce. He was my why. And this is our story. It is not a pretty one. Some parts of it are downright ugly. But it's ours.' This book hurt almost as much as I loved it."

My Skylar by Penelope Ward

"Clearly I'm a huge Ward fan, considering we just completed our fifth novel together. I recommend all of her books—characters with emotional struggles are her specialty. But My Skylar has a special place in my heart. It has Penelope's signature fun style, but it's also heartbreakingly gorgeous."

Hopeless by Colleen Hoover

"I adore anything that Hoover writes. Unfortunately I don't have as much time to read anymore, so I love when there is a new CoHo book because I know I won't be disappointed. Hopeless is a book that has stayed with me for years—it's beautifully written, heartfelt, and unique."
