Must Read Sports Romance Books

Happy Valentines Day! If you asked me a year ago my thoughts on sports romance books I would be like “eh not my thing!” But now I love them. If you are thinking that it’s not your thing, try some of my must-read sports romance books and I bet you change your mind!

Must Read Sports Romance Books

Say You Swear: This was the first college sports romance I read and got me so hooked. Plus it’s just a really GOOD book. It’s a different kind of love triangle and the twist is insane. I loved it so much.

Consider Me/Play With Me: These are professional hockey sports romances and SO SO SO GOOD! I saved them for our January Antigua trip and read them both in about a day and a half.

The Loyalties We Break: One of the most recent books I read and gave me a lot of say you swear vibes. Another college football romance done very well. I don’t see it talked about very much but it’s about a guy and a girl that dated and high school and have been best friends their entire lives. Then she meets his best friend…

Playing Hard To Get: One of my favorite tropes is the bad boy football player and the shy girl. This is the best version of that.

Offside: I loved Bailey and Chase so much! She is dumped by her crappy boyfriend and ends up falling for his rival. But it’s seriously so good.

The Off Campus Series: I blew through this series in a week. The Deal is definitely the best but they are all good. Each story is about one of the guys in a group of friends and their love interest. So they all make appearances in all books. Hockey romances done SO WELL!

First Down: James and Bex have a story that will stay with you. This fake dating football romance is one of my favorites because James is seriously such a good guy. The way he treats Bex is perfect.

Fumbled Hearts: This is part of a short series and has a lot of twists you won’t see coming. It’s a high school romance but it doesn’t feel like one. I love a found family situation.

Icebreaker: I’m sure most of you have heard of Icebreaker and if you thought to yourself that a hockey player/ice skater romance was missing from your life you’d be correct. One of my favorite books last year!

Have you read any sports romances??

    Sports romance! Now there is something I never thought of. I’m not much of a sport person, so I can’t say this is up my street, but my sister certainly is!

  6. Great reads and would be on-time books to read. I didn’t read or watch romance until last year. I never read sport romance though.

  7. I think what makes sports romance books so special is their ability to capture the excitement and energy of athletic competition while also exploring the complex emotions and relationships between the characters. Whether it’s a football player falling in love with a reporter, or a skier finding romance on the slopes, these books take readers on an unforgettable journey of love and triumph.
