Hey everyone,

Not to be a bitch, but I have noticed how some of you have been adding books in here that do not adhere to the description requirements. I will be going back through the list and weeding out these books. I appreciate your contribution, but it's also for the benefit of others that the requirements of this list is adhered to.

This list is for romance books with an OVERALL aggregate star score of AT LEAST 4 stars. Books who have a star rating of 3 point something, no matter how close to the 4 star rating you feel it might be after "rounding" DOES NOT COUNT. Neither does your belief that a book *should be* considered a 4. Many books on here I have personally rated as lower than 4, but have included on this list because of the opinions of everyone else.

When voting for future romance books, please be aware of the requirements, otherwise I will have to remove books as they are added. With this being said, thank you to all of you who have voted for books and have followed the guidelines! I'm sure with your additions, many more readers will be able to enjoy a new series from different (ADULT) authors!

Thanks a bunch!

Hi Theresa. May I suggest Raphael (Vampires in America #1) by D.B Reynolds. It is definitely AO with overall #4.11 score.

Hi Katrina,

Raphael (Vampires in America #1) by D.B. Reynolds was added to the list. Thanks for the contribution!

------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE: October 14, 2013

I have gone and have weeded out 3 books who did not meet the list's guidelines. Please follow the rules and add ONLY 4+ star ratings!

Thank you to all of you who have followed the rules and have helped this list to grow :)

Hi Everyone,

I hope y'all are enjoying this list ;) I've noticed it has grown since I started it! With that being said, I want to take a moment to thank all our contributors, and give a HUGE thanks to some of your who have messaged me with book updates and about violators.

NEW BOOK ADDED:
"Outlander" Series by Diana Gaboldon

---------------------------------------------------------
ALSO, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE HAVE BEEN VIOLATORS. IF YOU CAN'T FOLLOW THE RULES OF THIS LIST, I'M GOING TO BE FORCED TO CALL YOU OUT FOR BEING AN ASSHOLE.

DON'T RUIN THE READING EXPERIENCE FOR OTHERS BY ADDING BOOKS THAT DON'T BELONG ON THIS LIST.

---------------------------------------------------------
That's all! Thanks again!

Happy Reading!
~Theresa

You have Sterling by Dannika Dark on there 2 times. I think they should be combined.

Great List THanks!

Removing the following books since they are not first in the series:
The Mating (Law of the Lycans, #3)
Bound in Blue (Cirque Masters, #2)
Upon a Winter's Night (MacKinnon's Rangers, #3.5)
Untamed (MacKinnon's Rangers, #2)
Defiant (MacKinnon's Rangers, #3)
Darkest Before Dawn (KGI, #10)
Highlander Most Wanted (The Montgomerys and Armstrongs, #2)
Their Virgin Mistress (Masters of Ménage, #7)
Off the Edge (The Associates, #2)
In the Company of Witches (Arcane Shot, #2)

There are a few on the list that are below the 4 star.
Also
A Court of Thorns and Roses and Relentless are young adult.

A court of thorns has some sexual content, but it's certainly not a mature book that seems to fit the list requirements. Relentless is absolutely just YA.

Good list though! I appreciate being able to see where to start new series that are mature and highly rated. Helpful!
