I wonder if there’s a romance book where the handsome hero makes fun of the ugly/shy/virgin heroine at first but then falls in love with her later? A sweet/sensual read with little or no sex, actually? I like to read books with quiet and not-so-smart heroines and handsome (could be bullies & assholes at first) heroes that take interest in them and fall in love with them and take care of them.

I hate the sex god heroes and witty-smart-strong slut type of heroines please don’t mention them 🙁 I don’t like Fifty Shades kind of thing at all.

Do you have any recommendations on books with a similar feel to the After series by Anna Todd? I loved that series which led me to the 50 Shades series and I’ve been reading similar books for 6 months now. I’ve yet to come across a New Adult series though that gives me the same feeling and reaction as the After series though. I’m afraid I’m running out of great series to read. I’m finding that I really prefer series over standalone books for the most part. I also am not fond of companion series that are a different couple for each book.

I love that you have so many recommendations and have yet to make it through all of your lists, but will keep going!
