July 2024 Hot New Romance Book Releases
I hope your summer is going great. Are you swimming a lot? Or laying out? I’ve decided to get back in shape so I’ve been walking 5k+ three times a week. I’m mostly huffing and puffing up hills for now but I hope I’ll get better at it soon. It helps to have a friend to walk with who is really encouraging. We have a really great list of books that are publishing in July this summer. Luckily, the books are more spread out throughout the month unlike last month which saw a release heavy day early in the month. If you are looking for more fun beachy reads, click here to take you to my Steamy Summer Reads List.
If I have left out a book, please contact me and let me know.

Don’t miss the second thrilling Regency romance in the Gentlemen of Uncertain Fortune series by KJ Charles…
The Duke of Severn is one of the greatest men in Britain.
He’s also short, quiet, and unimpressive. And now he’s been robbed, after indulging in one rash night with a strange man who stole the heirloom Severn ring from his finger. The Duke has to get it back, and he can’t let anyone know how he lost it. So when his cousin bets that he couldn’t survive without his privilege and title, the Duke grasps the opportunity to hunt down his ring-incognito.
Life as an ordinary person is terrifying…until the anonymous Duke meets Daizell Charnage, a disgraced gentleman, and hires him to help. Racing across the country in search of the thief, the Duke and Daizell fall into scrapes, into trouble-and in love.

Now he dares to dream of a life somewhere out of sight with the quiet gentleman who’s stolen his heart. He doesn’t know that his lover is a hugely rich public figure with half a dozen titles. And when he finds out, it will risk everything they have…
