MEGATHREAD: LATER IN LIFE ROMANCES
Post Body

Hello r/RomanceBooks! I'm back with your weekly megathread.

This megathread is going to be about: LATER IN LIFE ROMANCES

What are LATER IN LIFE ROMANCES? This a subgenre of romances that occur when at least one character is forty or older. It could also be an age gap romance, where one character is significantly younger than the other such as in older woman, younger man romances. There may be grown children or grandkids, and the characters might have been single all along, or divorced, or widowed.

Here is a link to all MEGATHREADS. Megathreads are evergreen posts. Did you recently read and love a book? Find a megathread with the relevant tropes and add your recommendation! Don't see a trope you love on the megathread list? Drop a comment on any megathread and I'll add it to the list. Is there a megathread for a trope you love? Follow that post to be notified when people comment with their recommendations.

Here’s how this works.

  • Drop a comment down below with your recommended book(s). They should ONLY be books that you liked, not books that you haven't read or finished.
  • What’s the subgenre? What’re the pairing? Is it Paranormal Romance or Sci Fi Romance or...? MF, MM, FF...?
  • Explain how it fits the trope. What are the ages of the characters? How does their age affect the plot of the book?
  • Tell is why you love the book. “Well written” doesn’t count: let’s just assume they all are. Things like “smoking hot” and “character growth” and “amazing world building” are all acceptable.
  • What other tropes does the book have? Enemies to lovers? Slow burn?
  • Character archetypes! Is one MC a single parent? Is the parent a billionaire?

So tell us, what are your favorite LATER IN LIFE ROMANCES?

Next week: FADE TO BLACK ROMANCES
