Looking for strong heroines, romance and some sort of supernatural/paranormal/extraordinary

[Vanessa]

I can't seem to find any books I want to read.. I'm at a stage where I read a blurb and think that's looks okay then read review and get turned off.. I just can't seem to find anything that screams "READ ME" and it's killing my soul! I'm sure you can relate! So if anybody can help me that'd be great!

I read a lot of genres with romance being a common theme through-out all of them. Current I want something like a paranormal-romance ideally if anybodies read 'A promise of fire' by Amanda Bouchet I want a book like that.. Hell I want the sequel! Basically anything with a strong heroine who falls in love with a stronger hero? Ideally set in an alternate universe pretty please? Paranormal, Extraterrestrial, Supernatural.. I'm feeling it all!

Some of my favourite books/series are:
The Fae Chronicles by Amelia Hutchins
Kate Daniel Series by Ilona Andrews
Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews
Night Huntress Novels by Jeaniene Frost
Mercy Thompson by Patricia Briggs
Guild Hunter Series by Nalini Singh
The Golden Dynasty by Kristen Ashley
Dark in You Series by Suzanne Wright
Elder Race Series by Thea Harrison

I'm not really a big fan of series that chop and change the MCs for each book.. about the only one I really like that does that is
Vampires in America by DB Reynolds
and even then Raphael will forever be my favourite!
I know the Elder Races does this as well but it's only recently in my starvation for books that I've read the books centring around other MCs..

So any ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. if you have any questions about any books I've mentioned feel free to ask as well!

My love in advance for your fabulous help! Xx

So the whole time I was writing that a word kept alluding me that describes what I want- fantasy! Silly me! Brain fart! So yeah fantasy books is what I want :) xx

[Anahita Reid]

Oh my gosh, I'm a huge fan of those books as well!

Have you heard of Ella Summers? She has some pretty bada$$ heroines in her books! I'd suggest reading Mercenary Magic (Dragon Born Serafina) first, Sera is my favourite main character of all Ella Summers' series ^v^ And gosh damn, that Kai! The romance isn't as graphic as some of the books on your list, but it's still there and still good XD

Hope this helps! :3

Oh and her Legion of Angels series!! (Ella Summers)

[MJ]

The Dark Age
Anathema


Not alt reality... and admittedly some of these are less than stellar editing etc, but even tho I'm pretty fussy, I love them enough to look around the few issues and reread often.
Daughter Trilogy Bundle
Captured
Seven Psychics
Relentless

[Vanessa]

No I haven't heard of Ella Summers but I'll be getting all over that like white on rice!! Thankyou!! It looks amazing!!

As for the other suggestions I've seen a couple of them before but read none so now I'll go and have another look through! The Daughters Trilogy is one I've been on the fence about for a while but I might revisit and read it now so thankyou!!




Anymore suggestion from people are still welcome!! :D

The Enchantment Emporium by Tanya Huff is an excellent fantasy tale. All of the Gale Aunts are formidable and it's the first in a series if you like it.

[David]

Kim Harrison's Hollows series is great too.

[Spottyblanket]

Soullless by gail carriger. High adventure and hilarious.

[Daffodil]

You do know that came out yesterday, don't you?

Faith Hunter's Jane Yellowrock series is a favorite of mine. The romance is not immediately obvious, but it has slowly grown over the course of the series. Urban Fantasy set in an alternate U.S.

Michelle Sagara's Chronicles of Elantra does not really feature a romance. Kaylin still has a lot of personal growth to go through before she's ready for a personal relationship. That's not to say there aren't possibilities for the future, just not for right now. Fantasy series set in another universe.

C.E. Murphy's Walker Papers are another favorite. Urban Fantasy.

Maria Snyder's Study Trilogy. Fantasy set in another universe. She has also written another full spinoff trilogy and is currently in the middle of a follow up trilogy to the Study trilogy.

Okay so I just finished breath of fire.. Amazing!! Let me cry while I now wait for Jan 2018 and the next book!! So good!! Thankyou btw!! I didn't even realise the release date was so soon! My how time flies!!

Ive seen the Jane Yellowrock series in my searches but it's never really seemed to have much of a romance but now the I know I'll add it to my to-read list!!

The other suggestions are all new to me but I'll definitely check them out!! Thankyou guys! So much!

[Vanessa]

So just thought I'd update: I read the book Anahita suggested Mercenary Magic by Ella Summers and absolutely loved it!! So thankyou so much! Reminded me a little bit of Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews! I'll be reading the next in the series as soon as I get some sleep lol!

[Daffodil]

It's sci-fi not fantasy, but I love Gini Koch's Katherine "Kitty" Katt series.

[Pilar]

Hi! I would recommend you :

"The Others" by Anne Bishop
"Sentinels of New Orleans" by Suzanne Johnson
"Alex Craft" by Kalayna Price

[Brittany]

I loved Forbidden Forest and Forest Fire by Tenaya Jayne and I'm only in the middle of Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning but I like it a lot so far.

Jane Yellowrock doesn't have a lot of romance, but a strong female lead definitely. Although if "Beast" had their way, there would be a lot more mating going on.

Oh and you must try Minion. There is most definitely a steamy romance, focuses on Damalia, and is a really good vampire (and other creatures) hunting series.

[Daffodil]

Oh, I second Anne Bishop's "The Others". I've been a fan of hers for years. Her Dark Jewels trilogy and subsequent novels are favorites of mine ... had to buy it as soon as it hit the shelves favorites.

Did you ever read Kim Harrison's The Hollows series? The main character kicks some serious butt.
