Reader favorite rock star romance books you’ll love (February 2025)

The semi-annual list!

For a while now, I’ve been asking my readers to tell me their favorite rock star romance books–and I’ve shared the results in August 2023, February 2024, and August 2024.

I’m continually collecting votes and compiling results!

Here are the most up-to-date reader faves, starting with the books that got the most votes. One thing to note: because it’s my readers I ask, several of my books made the list, so I’m ecstatic…but it won’t go to my head. 🙂

BOOKS WITH THE MOST VOTES

In no particular order, here are the reader favorite books (and series) that received the most votes!

CAKE, J. Bengtsson

J. Bengtsson’s Cake series is loved by many readers, starting with book one, Cake: A Love Story, and continues to be a HUGE reader favorite!

The ASHES & EMBERS series, Carian Cole

My readers love all of Carian Cole’s rocker books. Talon is a particular favorite, along with Storm and the standalone No Tomorrow. So if you haven’t read any of her books, you have some recommendations for where to start! This series has been a consistent favorite with every list and gets more and more votes!

The DIRTY Series, Jaine Diamond

Readers love the entire Dirty series, and multiple readers agreed that they adored book number one. This series continually gets votes from my readers.

The BULLET Series, Jade C. Jamison

As I always like to remind folks, keep in mind that these are MY readers who were polled. Because of that, many of them say the entire Bullet series is a favorite, followed by the Tangled Web series and Wilder Love.

The BEAUMONT Series, Heidi McLaughlin

Heidi McLaughlin’s Beaumont Series continues to be a reader favorite and gets more votes every year!

The STAGE DIVE Series, Kylie Scott

Readers loved her entire Stage Dive series, and a couple of readers have said that Deep was a fave! (And Lick is now a movie!)
