April showers bring May flowers and this time, we’re not kidding. There are some exciting romance books coming out this month.

To me, May is the quintessential time to be reading romance books. As I said every time, I read romance books year-round but to me, there is something so fun about reading them in spring and summer. Just sitting outside with a good romance in hand is unbeatable.

Either way, I feel like this month in particular is an embarrassment of riches. There are so many good romance books coming out and so many I know I want to pick up. Even if you’re not a romance reader, you might still end up finding something you’ll enjoy.

Regardless, there are a lot of books to be talking about so let’s not waste any more time and get into the books.

These are some exciting romance books being released in May 2023.

As with every single one of these lists, I want to make sure that you know this isn’t all the romance books coming out in May. Rather, these are books I’ve seen mentioned a lot and are talked about plus a lot of them are ones I’m excited about so let’s get into them.
