Welcome to my annual 12 DAYS OF GIVEAWAYS! 

If you’re new to this – here’s how it works:

Each giveaway is different and each has ONE WINNER. MY GIVEAWAYS ARE ALWAYS OPEN INTERNATIONAL 

2.   Each giveaway runs UNTIL DECEMBER 13.

3.   Winners are CHOSEN and NOTIFIED on December 14. I will be notifying winners USING THE EMAIL USED TO COMMENT ON THIS BLOG – and all winners will BE LISTED AT THE TOP OF EACH GIVEAWAY POST HERE ON MY WEBSITE on December 14.

4.   Winners have 24 hours to respond, then another winner will be chosen.

5.   ALL PRIZES WILL BE MAILED ON DECEMBER 15.  If I’m waiting on a winner to respond and they miss the December 15 mail date, that prize will be mailed when I get around to it.

6.   I will send newsletters announcing giveaways on December 1, December 6, December 12, and a Winner newsletter on December 14. I NEVER send this many newsletters in a month so sorry if that feels spammy.

IN EACH POST I WILL HIGHLIGHT A BOOK

TODAY’S BOOK HIGHLIGHT IS THE MISTERS

THE ALPHA-ASSHOLE DONE TO PERFECTION (FOR THE WHOLE SERIES!) 🙂

 

THERE’S A MISTER FOR EVERYONE…

Mr. Perfect

He is SO Alpha! Ellie is the “celebrity concierge” at Stonewall Entertainment. She’s good at it. On most days. Just not the day her new boss, McAllister Stonewall, shows up and catches her secretly sexting in his debut executive meeting.

Mr. Romantic

He’s SO DARK! Ivy is the “preacher’s daughter” and she’s desperate for a job when a sweet opportunity comes in from the infamous Mr. Romantic. Nolan Delaney might be deliciously hot, but he’s got a dark side lurking under that charm.

Mr. Corporate

He’s SO Prince Charming! West wants a girl who needs him and Victoria can handle things just fine on her own, thank you. But now that West is back, so are all her old secrets. Like it or not, she might need him to save her.

Mr. Mysterious

He’s SO Off Limits! Cindy does not give a crap about the best-friend’s-little-sister rule. She wants Mr. Mysterious all to herself. He’s dangerous, and moody, and probably shouldn’t be drinking whiskey for breakfast. But lucky him—she’s willing to be his partner. Everyone needs a team, right? She’s not afraid of a little scandal

Mr. Match

He’s SO Right For Me! Katya is a girl with secrets.  Is she a Russian spy? A liar? Or just a lost girl who fell in love with the “right” wrong man? Meeting Mr. Match four years ago changed her whole life. Who knew fate would intervene just when all hope was lost? But she should’ve known better. She doesn’t deserve him.

Mr. Five

He’s SO Not Getting Away! Rory and Five were best friends, childhood sweethearts, and the definition of soul mates. Nothing could ever come between them. Except Five thinks she’s better off without him. But Rory Shrike wants her man back. And not even the genius brain of Mr. Five will stop her.

Mr. & Mrs

Is it the wedding of the century? Or a disaster in the making? All the Misters are gathered together on Five’s island paradise for the most outrageous wedding ever!

(1) COMMENT HERE on the blog (below) and tell me –

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ROMANCE TROPE?

IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME COMMENTING ON THE BLOG IT HAS TO BE APPROVED. SO DON’T WORRY IF IT DOESN’T SHOW UP RIGHT AWAY.

MY ANSWER

I have to be honest, I don’t read romance unless it’s in a Sci-Fi book as a side story. I’m really just a sci-fi reader. But I do like the romantic subplot and my favorite trope is WHO DID THIS TO YOU. I don’t know why, but I love that whole ‘protection’ thing. Or when the guy gets pay-backs for his heroine. Love that too. 

I like ENEMIES TO LOVERS, FRIENDS TO LOVERS, and RIDE OR DIE too- but Ride or Die ONLY if it’s a couple–maybe a trio–BUT NOT A TEAM. I really hate the ‘team’ books. I will rarely, if ever, read a book about a ‘team’ of characters. Mostly I prefer first-person stories, so if all the characters have a first-person POV, I will give it a try. But what I really like is THE LONER and IT HAS TO BE A GUY. 

I’m VERY picky about books. 🙂 (Aren’t we all?)

  8. Enemies to lovers, but truly, I’m more in quest of a plot with a bigger picture, twists, and if possible, whenever possible, a mindfuck. These are my absolute favorites 😍

    Reply

  11. The hero (man) with a strong women. I hate whiny women! I don’t like just drippy romance. I like plots and twists.
    Mr Perfect was the first JA Huss book I ever read and I was hooked!!

    Reply

  12. Lately I have found that I prefer fantasy/sci-fi/paranormal over standard romance. I LOVE Enemies to Lovers and Forced Proximity but can’t resist a good Touch Her and Unalive!!!

    Reply

  14. My favorite is definitely Enemies to Lovers but with a single parent in the mix, because I love single parents but especially single dads!

    Reply

  15. When I first started reading romance, the second chance romance was the biggest trope at the time, and 9 times out of 10, I hated the reason the couple broke up or were parted for however long. The reason they were apart was always SO weak, like you really couldn’t communicate or find each other in all those years? Nope, I never bought it. AND a secondary thing that pissed me off in those books was how the guy was always a total manwhore and screwed tons of women, but when he would find out that some guy was interested in her now – because she was celibate the whole time they were apart – he would go all caveman and be a jealous ass. And write off all those other women as “just sex, it didn’t mean anything”. LOL My current favorite trope seems to be small town, single parent, romantic suspense. I love the mystery/thriller genre and trying to figure out who the culprit is that is doing whatever is going on. Found family is another big one for me, I love a good found family story.

    Reply

    1. I don’t really have a favorite trope, but tend to choose based on my mood. Lately I’ve been more drawn to rom-com, or at least books with an element of humor, just to escape all of the heaviness of real life.

      Reply

  20. My favorite Trope is Best Friend’s Sibling. And my second is Best Friend’s to Lovers. And if a baby is involved, even better.

    Reply

    1. Love me some Enemies to Lovers, She’s Mine, Hurt Her and Die, Stalker, Good Girl(weak in the knees) and honestly all the Dark Romance Trope’s. Recently, I’ve come to find I’ve never had so many kinks or just never really thought about them before. Hi, my name is Amanda and apparently I’m a Naughty Girl, lol.

      Reply

  23. As with everything else I can’t pick just one. I love dark romance with enemies to Lovers, reverse harem, who did this to you, mafia, MC. I want first person POV, I almost can’t read a third person book. I want a sassy, strong FMC who challenges the MMC(s). I could keep going for ever, but those are my favs.

    Reply

  25. Mafia, Sports romance, Military, Dark romance, Enemies to lovers, best friends brother, age gap. Holiday etc. So many I don’t just stick to one genre I love them all

    Reply

  26. I’m a mood reader. I read most romance troupes, ones that are rom com the most lately but paranormal, thriller, syfi, regular contemporary and more are all on my book shelves and read not just romance.

    Reply

  31. Nothing with a whiners in it. I love a very alpha male and a sassy woman who will put him in his place when needed. If it’s a sexy thriller or sexy psychological tale, Im all in on those too.

    Reply

  32. I love Fated Mates. Not this love at first sight, though if done right it’s ok. I like Destiny. It can be a contemporary storyline, or PNR, but my favorite is sci-fi. I don’t discriminate between genres, if it is a good plot I’m there.

    Reply

  34. I don’t have an absolute favorite genre or trope because I read everything depending on my mood and I’m always finding new authors and new books to read.

    Reply

  36. I don’t have a favorite trope. It changes on my mood. Sometimes is the snarky heroine, sometimes its enemies to lovers. Theses days I’m partial to something with mystery and dahger.

    Reply

  40. Enemies to lovers! I love, love, love this trope! The banter, the tension, the attraction and chemistry and when the main characters finally come together *whew* 🔥🥵🔥 fire!

    Reply

  42. My favorite romantic trope is Historical Fiction, World War one or world war two era. Wartime love seems to be more poignant.

    Reply

  43. I love a good bully romance bonus if it’s an RH but doesn’t need to be. Love mafia, sports, brothers best friend. I also read in a few different genre from dark romance, contemporary, fantasy, romantasy & gothic romance.

    Reply

  44. I’m definitely all over the place – military/protector, enemies to lovers, dark romance and lately I’m on fated mates. If the writing in good and compelling then I’m in.

    Reply

  45. I’m definitely all over the place – military/protector, enemies to lovers, dark romance and lately I’m on fated mates. If the writing is good and compelling then I’m in.

    Reply

  46. Since I read almost any romance, it’s easier to say what I don’t look forward to is enemies to lovers. So many of the authors I follow have been doing that trope for so long that I’m disappointed when I learn it’s the trope of the next book. It’s hard to pass on the books when they are favorite authors though. I’ve been skipping some of them lately. From dark to romcom … it’s a popular trope.

    Reply

  47. Umm 🤔 that’s a hard one I love enemies to lovers, age gap and mafia dark romance can’t really do the fantasy stuff

    Reply

  49. I read romance with a great plot. My favorite trope is a Rook and Ronin storyline. Secrets that are kept in order to protect the people you love most and then teaming up to solve the problem. I like stories with characters that reappear in future books. I think that’s why I love your writing. You don’t forget our favorite characters that you’ve made us love.

    Reply

  51. I’d have to say small towns are my favorite currently, but I love interconnected series. World building in books is the best!

    Reply

  52. I can’t choose just one, but I love enemies to lovers and second chance, put them in romantic suspense story, and I’m a goner

    Reply

  60. I don’t really have a favourite I will read most things, I do like the secret society vibe and underlying mystery probably why apart from Cindy being awesome Mr Mysterious and Merc are my favourite characters

    Reply

  64. I really like suspense and conspiracy theory stories. The company is my favorite story line. I can reread it often. I also really liked the shape of love series. Anything to make me think and wonder.

    Reply

  70. If I had to pick a favorite trope, I’d have to say Beauty and the Beast. There’s just something about the concept of getting to truly know someone before you ever think there’s a chance for romance….

    Reply

  71. I’m a why choose girl. Quite literally. I can’t choose between enemies to lovers, age gap, why choose, and brothers best friend. I love to read all kinds. Dark, really dark, happy.. My kindle will make you wonder if I’m ok. 😂 Yes, I am btw.

    Reply

  74. I love forbidden/taboo relationships, enemies to lovers especially if good banter and the “hate” period lasts a long time, love fantasy or sci-fi with romance side plots too but I do love “team” ones. 🙂

    Reply

  75. My favorite right now is paranormal, shifters…dragons and wolves are my favorite, unless it’s a academy or school setting where all the different types are together. I also love MC and Mafia. Second chance or brothers/sisters best friend, especially when there’s a secret baby/child, are also loves of mine.

    Reply

  81. My current favorite is dark romance with touch her and die vibes and a side of over protective alphahole(s). Even better if it’s reverse harem with a heroine firmly in her twenties or older.

    Reply

  87. My favorite romance trope is brothers best friend/slow burn. I like that the couple have known one another for a long time and one has been in love with the other always and is just waiting for the other to realize they should be together and when they finally get together it was truly meant to be.

    Reply

  89. Here lately I’ve been into Scottish contemporary and Scottish medieval romance. Or mafia🤣. I have finally broken through a wall on my family tree and have discovered that that whole particular side is Scottish. Something no one had ever known because my grandmother died when my mom was little

    Reply

  90. I prefer dark Romance. I enjoy the bossy possessive a-holes. I love biker stories. Mafia stories. I also love me some fantasy with a bit of romance.

    Reply

  91. I started to write down the ones I really enjoy, then thought it would be quicker to write what I don’t enjoy – then couldn’t think of any of those!
    Love dark, love ultra spicy, love mafia and MC enemies to lovers, but some days sweet friends to lovers just hits the spot.
    Mood reader, anyone? 😂

    Reply

  96. I’ve read a lot of horror/mystery with a few still on hand. I’m trying to expand more by dipping into the dark romance and motorcycle club books. Some dark romance with vampires, witches or fictional characters, would be right up my ally.

    Reply

  101. I’d say enemy to lover, dark romance, morally gray MC possibly w mafia or similar gang like characters, touch her and die, more erotic the more I like it. (Although if written well, it can elude to such matters and be just as spicy.) And I’m in a whychoose phase (don’t recall if I said that last yr) but it’s definitely true this yr. OTOH, I never turn down a well written romance either MF or MM.

    Reply

  104. I love a good alpha male who will protect his woman. I also love enemies to lovers, second chances and friend to lovers. A good romantic suspense is also a top favorite.

    Reply

  112. I absolutely love a good enemies to lovers where he becomes soft only for her. Very possessive alpha. Also a good why choose.

    Reply

  114. I like the “secret identity” romance trope, and if you add in an historical or Regency setting, it gets an A+ from me.

    Reply

  116. Enemies to lovers but I will read anything not really picky. Especially if it’s you or another favorite author

    Reply

  117. I can honestly say I don’t have a favorite romance trope. I do tend to stay away from anything too dark, though so usually Dark Romance is out!

    Reply

  121. I like HEA, who did this to you, and I don’t mind why choose as I don’t like love triangles. Found family is my favourite book trope.

    Reply

  123. That is just such a tricky question when you have ADHD. So, with that in mind, today my favorite trope is dark as fuck and vengeance on my enemies. Toss in some touch him/her and die with mmf.

    Yep. That should do it.

    Reply

  124. I don’t have a favorite… but I do enjoy the “one that got away.” There’s always something about the crush you had when you were younger that didn’t work out (for whatever reason) only to discover them again later in life and it just clicks.

    Reply

  125. Love all romance for the most part. Prefer a good alpha male and agree with your who did this to you pick because protection and revenge can give good feels. I don’t mind some why choose lately or a good I F-ed up grovel book every once in a while.

    Reply

  129. I love them all! I haven’t come across any tropes that give me the ick. I love a good FMM, and an obsessive MMC, just give me all the smut!

    Reply

    1. I don’t know if I have a favorite troupe, so much as I have one that i don’t like. I really don’t like the surprise pregnancy troupe. Maybe because we struggled so much to get pregnant. I just feel like of them all it is a real easy way out kind of troupe.

      Reply

  132. My favorite romance trope is Enemies to Lovers. Something about the hate love thing gets to me. I love when the MMC shows the FMC how much he really loves her. And of course I need a HEA!

    Reply

  133. I don’t have a particular favorite, but if I had to choose, I would say either enemies to lovers or touch her and you die. I just really like a great storyline with lots of twists.

    Reply

  134. Lately I’ve been reading a lot of protector books, he’s a special forces soldier and she’s in some crazy bind. I also enjoy motorcycle clubs, etc. Love me a bad boy in love, throw in a precocious kid and I’m hooked.

    I recently had a recommendation for a why choose; and there were 10 guys. I can’t even fathom that; 2 or 3 guys and a girl, hot yes, but when it’s a whole baseball team with one girl it gets a big ridiculous.

    Reply

  135. I have 3 favorite tropes. I love the mafia, billionaires and the silver fox age gap. Oh I guess I have one more and that would be the club trope too. Due to my age I can’t do those young girls or sci-fi anymore.

    Reply

  136. My favorite romance trope is either friends to lovers or enemies to lovers. I like the anticipation with the friends to lovers and the angst with enemies to lovers. Either way you are waiting for them to give in to what they really want.

    Reply

  137. I like enemy to lovers, single parents romance, reverse harem and most other romance books I do love a military romance the most I think.

    Reply

  140. Omg I love this series!!!! I honestly don’t have a favorite. I have a what am I in the mood for. Lately it’s been hockey dark romances

    Reply

  142. My favoeite Romance trope is definitely enemies to lovers. The angst, slow burn, and surprise when they realize their feelings is always my favorite part

    Reply

  143. My favorite romance trope is best friends to lovers and age gap. Bonus points if the age gap is best friends dad or ex boyfriend dad or something along those lines. 🫣

    Reply

  146. I don’t really know what it’s called but I love the books with strong female characters like Sasha. The ones that aren’t a pushover and just do what they’re told. I dont like ones where the females are talked down to or bullied either. I want to shake them and say don’t take that and be strong and don’t listen to them.
    And I really do like the series books of yours Julie where the books have interwoven characters from previous books

    Reply

  147. Forbidden love and enemies to lovers are my absolute favorite! I also love feeding like tje fmc keeps forgetting to take care of herself do he does!

    Reply

  151. I enjoy a good romance when it’s done right. When it’s forced or an afterthought it puts me off.
    I am usually reading some kind of romance. I hate mafia stories and avoid those romance plots.

    Reply

  154. Second Chance or books like Rory and Five where they have loved each other forever. Five…Fucking Five. I love him amd their story ❤️

    Reply

  155. I think my favorite trope would have to be enemies to lovers. It is a super versatile trope that works across a variety of novels, but I also feel like it has the ability to go off the rails very quickly. Ex. If the FMC is too bratty or immature it makes it hard to relate, or when she purposefully miscommunicates or withholds information despite inner monologue saying that she knows better or that this is detrimental.

    Reply

  156. My all time favorite trope is age gap. Older man/ younger woman to be exact. I’ll give anything a try, but it’s age gap that draws me to a book. I love motorcycle club or mafia, too.

    Reply

  162. So many tropes not enough time to read em all. I love touch her and perish, HEA, Enemies to Lovers….. so many more. That I don’t have time for . Gotta get back to work.

    Reply

  167. I get bored with just one trope. I like switching it up. I enjoy a good suspense story, some dystopian books, but I do like some romance. In the romance arena, I like switching it up, but a Single Dad gets me ALL the time.

    Reply

  169. I don’t have a favorite trope. I’ll read anything with an engaging plot that pulls me in with the couple of chapters. But I am drawn to the dark and twisted stuff. 🖤🖤🖤

    Reply

  170. Hard to pick just one but if I have to chose only one it would be marriage
    of convenience by enemies to lovers with a morally gray/black OTT touch her and die birth control tampering stalking billionaire who is into dub con, stalking and breeding kink. Oh my! Is that more than one trope?! Wink..wink

    Reply

  171. Not sure if I have a favorite, there’s too many. I like the hermit type guy who the female character brings out of his shell, second chance romance, enemies to lovers.

    Reply

  177. I love the bodyguards books. It cannbe police, fbi or any when the grumpy man has to protect the very nice, kind, open heqrt woman. So in the story not just romantic but there little thiller as well. But also big favorite brother best friend when the chaarcter the same. Grumpy man, very nice women.

    Reply

  178. I like a mix of things. I was surprised when I tried a romance/fantasy book and really, really liked that. So many options.

    Reply

  179. I enjoy enemies to lovers, when the initial intensity of dislike (even hate) moves into so much spice!! I enjoy strong emotion 😵‍💫

    Reply

  181. Forced proximity is my #1, especially with first person dual POV, but I have so many favorite tropes.
    Now, because of a vision disease, I have almost 100% moved to audio books.
    I also like first dual first person and dual narrators there. Narrators make audiobooks for me. Your narration is always on pointe. The Rook and Ronin Omnibus was my first book and audiobook where I discovered you, about 8-ish years ago.💜

    Reply

  185. I would have to say at the moment it is Mafia arranged marriage where they can’t stand each other but end up falling for each other. The FMC won’t admit it at first and the MMC is so protective it is scary.

    Reply

  190. I love enemies to lovers and grumpy sunshine, vampire and human in love. Male protector and female hiding from trouble. All with plenty of secrets! And secret societies too! Love science fiction with aliens and humans that fall for each other. I love an Alpha guy, but not that stupid stuff. 🤪😂🤣

    Reply

  191. I go through phases. Right now I’m in a slump. I just can’t get into anything. I can barely get through my book club pick and I haven’t even been reading anything extra.

    Reply

  194. I’m going with dark enemies to lovers. It has to be first person POV. I’ve tried the third person thing, I never understand who is saying what, maybe it’s just not written correctly or maybe it’s me.. I love a good inner monologue. But I’m usually up to trying all tropes if it catches my interest

    Reply

  195. I love Mafia Romance, PNR, Friends to Lovers and Enemies to Lovers and Male protector but I will give anything a try if the plot and storyline sounds interesting

    Reply

  204. I can’t pick a favourite, sorry but I just can’t – it all depends on what mood I’m in… Everyone needs to laugh so definitely need a rom com but then other days I just want a dark enemies-to-lovers full of angst

    Reply

  206. I don’t really have a favorite, I just love to read them all but If i had to pick i guess something romantic suspense so I get some romance with some sort of something that keeps me guessing and wondering what next.

    Reply

  208. Ohhhh…that’s a hard one for me! Romanticy is probably my favorite genre and I do love dark stories and characters. Morally gray, single parents, 2nd chance. Age gap are good too.

    Reply

  212. I love a good action romance. A flawed hero rescuing a strong girl always gets me. An enemy-lovers one is another favourite.

    Reply

  213. I love enemies to lovers but only if they actually are enemies/hate each other. I love all the angst & if they only really dislike each other a little, it’s just not the same. I also like grumpy x sunshine.

    Reply

  215. I absolutely adore enemies to lovers trope. I think it’s the tension and banter that I find the most entertaining.

    Reply

  216. I read everything. Love enemies to lovers, but throw in a military man or woman to the rescue and I am really happy

    Reply

  217. I love Mafia Romance, Taboo, and Age gap. Those are my favorites but I will read just about anything dark romance. I have yet to find a trigger so we shall see how my reading evolves.

    Reply

  230. I love the payback and the protection too! Ride or Die, enemies to lovers, friends to lovers and even an age gap. The darker the better! I like that “wow that was really F’ed up…but man I love it” vibe. I have been reading MM and found some good ones.

    My next favotite series is the gilroy clan megyn ward .

  233. There’s no way to have one favorite but I lean into forced proximity on the darker side but there needs to be a really good story. This can often hold hands with enemies to lovers and/or second chance which also enjoy. I also appreciate it when these romance themes cross with sci fi, fantasy and thriller genres.

    But sci-fi or paranormal romance, especially species on the brink of extinction for lack of females, always does it for me, too.

  240. I can’t pick just one. Enemies to lovers- age gap- single daddy I at least every 2 books I go kinda dark with the alpha males-mafia-MMF

  241. Enemies to lovers, single dad \nanny, some MC series, some dark romance. Age gap, as long as the female character is over 21. I’ll try something different and if I can’t get into it after a couple of chapters, I’ll stop and try something different.

  243. I enjoy a good paranormal book with dark elements. The like my heroines independent- not all damsel in distress and a good enemies to lovers romance.

  255. I say, “Why choose?” I read/listen to a variety of romance tropes and I love any of them that are well written and offer something a bit different. I like a story that isn’t easily predictable. Your books always have an edge that keeps me guessing. The Mister series is one of my favorites. The humor in Mr. Perfect had me laughing right out loud! And, as always, there was that suspicion that kept me wondering!
    Thanks for entertaining me over and over, Julie. ❤️

  256. I think my favourite has to be a kick ass strong headed, sassy and intelligent heroine who fights or is up against a lot of problems. I like for it to include a romantic element which can be spicy or slow burn and either a large or small part of the overall plot. I like contemporary or science fantasy or shifters.

  265. Enemies to lovers, dark (very dark) romance, Mafia, who did this to you, touch her and die MMF, reverse harem

  276. There’s just something about a Second Chance 🥰 I also enjoy age gap. These are top of my list but I’ll normally give any trope a try EXCEPT cheating.

  277. I have to say right now I’ve been reading alot of shifter books. The whole true mate thing got me hooked. But I also read alot of tattoo, muscle, biker books. So I would say the protection aspects of it all is what hooks me in all that I read. Which is alot.

  278. I really enjoy all kinds of genre and I can say I have read a series of yours I haven’t enjoyed. I love the enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, couples, even trios and the dark romances. Your latest Sacred Trinity and Sparktopia I really enjoyed. As I have almost listened my way through most of your titles in the last 18 months, I think my New Year’s resolution should be to delve into the sci-fi genre a bit more.

    Your selection of cast really make your books a joy to listen to regardless of the genre. They are very good at drawing in the reader and having you sit on the edge of your seat waiting for what is next to happen.

  284. I think the enemies to sweethearts trope might be my favorite. I like ones where there is a WWII spy thriller type story and one of the pair thinks the other is working for the enemy. It’s only later on that they realize the person was working undercover for their side of the war effort, and then it all works out for the happy couple.

  297. Man, this is a hard one to pick just one. I like romance and books so if it is a well written story that has great depth and character development, then it doesn’t matter what trope it is. I do like enemies to lovers because emotions run high. Friends to lovers sometimes lacks this passion because the characters already know each other too well.

  298. I love military romance. Stepbrother, best friend’s sister/brother and why choose are also my top choices. I will pretty much read anything as long as it fits my mood.

  302. My favorite tropes is Forbidden Romance/Love. It works with all genres in my opinion and I think that’s why I love it so much. I’m a huge fan of romance, dystopian, SciFi, and fantasy and I always find myself drawn to books with that trope.

  347. I don’t know that I have a favorite trope. It’s more about what am I in the mood for. I like the morally grey, enemies to lovers, he falls first.. well as I said just about any.

  351. I LOVE fake dating. I read across all genres (romance, horror, sci-fi, literary, manga, graphic novels, speculative, really, everything!), and romance has always been part of that. I was recently reminded of the Sweet Dreams series of books that I read as a 10-11-12 year old, and I looked up what I remembered to be my favorite by the cover…and it was FAKE DATING! 😂

    Reply

  389. My favorite tropes are forced proximity, grumpy sunshine and he falls first. Forced proximity forces the couple to face their feelings and also their issues that need to be resolved. It also allows allows the couple to let their guard down and just be themselves without any outside interference. Grumpy / Sunshine lets the Grumpy lighten up and relax around their sweetheart and the Sunshine has that special feeling of knowing that you’re the only one who can make your Grumpy smile. I love he falls first because he has to work so hard whether to relieve insecurities, or argue reasons not to be together or protect the woman he’s fallen in love with. He falls first will usually do anything for the woman that he loves and who wouldn’t want that?

  392. If I had to pick it would be reverse harem, forced proximity and all along those lines. I love a gritty, suspense, plot twist, mystery, blow your mind kind of story. But really the only thing I don’t like is when FMC’s are too whiny/ insecure and they go on and on about how their feelings were hurt or were wronged. I don’t need G I Jane but get over it for Christ’s sake!

  412. I have been in a touch her and d!e phase lately. Mafia, MC, stalker, alien abduction, possessive, but not controlling heroes, etc. Okay, maybe slightly controlling, but not in a permanently harmful way to our heroine, and mostly in the bedroom. My all-time favorites are more in the sci-fi realm though. I love Anne McCaffrey, an oldie but goodie. She has a great mix of sci-fi and fantasy in her stories. Also, Anna Carven and her Kordolian warriors. I get both sc-fi and touch her and d!e, with some super sexy, indestructible, possessive alien warriors.

  477. My favorite is insta love/fatedmates/soulmates. I just need all parties involved to know where they stand and then we figure (life/eachother) the rest out. I hate the back and forth, will they wont they.. he loves me, he loves me not…ugh. I get frustrated at these fictional characters. lol
    Also forced proximity is really hot. Even without HEA. 😉 Here ironically I can deal with the back and forth.

  485. Ooo I love a good Enemies to lovers which turns into WHO did this to you Touch her and Die. I enjoy the inside struggle of “I don’t like you, but if anyone is going to touch you, its going to be me” especially when the protective feelings aren’t recognized until they see other person hurt.

  492. I like all troops but usually not historical. Lately I have been in to RH and Enemy to lovers or bully romances but I trade off.

  494. If I had to pick a trope, it would probably have to be when the millionaire figures out the “common” girl with the attitude is the one he can’t walk away from. That said, what I really look for more than anything is a good mysterious, intriguing story that you can get lost in and books with humor that have me laughing throughout it. There just really has to be some creative story telling.

    The female characters must have a brain and a backbone & know how to ask the question they’re wondering about. Those stupid angsty books where no one communicates with the other until the very end of the book, get sent right to the trash pile. — I hate those!!

  505. My favorite romance trope is suspense romance with a military twist! I love the combination of high-stakes action, life-or-death situations, and the undeniable chemistry between the characters. Whether it’s a soldier protecting someone in danger or two skilled operatives navigating missions while falling for each other, the blend of danger and devotion keeps me hooked. The mix of adrenaline and heartfelt moments makes every interaction intense and unforgettable, especially when love becomes a driving force for survival and heroism.

  525. As a reader I am not really picky, and I dont have a fav, but I really like forbidden romance, and I like enemies to lovers. I also like twisted and dark with a bit of mystery. I like my brain tries to work it out, and then I am all shocked. even though I shouldn’t be shocked, or I am very rightfully so shocked. I have also learned that fictional me is ok with WAY more than IRL me would ever be. IE: *Me to my fictional bestie:* “Oh your are in love with the massive stalker who murder’s people for fun. YOU GET IT GURL” *IRL me to my IRL bestie*: she wants to meet someone that she meet online: “OK; but make sure that you share your location with me, I will stalk you the entire night, tell me which VERY PUBLIC SUPER BUSY restaurant you will be going to; and text me when you leave, and take 4 different ways before you go home to make sure that you are NOT followed. WHATEVER YOU DO, do NOT have a drink, and do NOT go to a private place with him!”

  602. Yeah, I’d agree we’re all pretty picky about our books. Time is valuable. My favorite trope is forbidden romance. Could be boyfriend’s brother, reverse age gap, teacher-student, and the like. Also a huge fan of he-falls-first. I love an overprotective, confident alpha male.

  606. Primarily all things rockstars BUT….I have also acquired a healthy appetite for mafia/bratva/mob tyre stories.

  607. I love almost all romance tropes so it might be easier to say what I hate. I seriously dislike huge age gap and daddy dom that gives off pedo vibes.

  609. More of a Rom Com, but like the darker, spicier ones. Anything except the step sibling and the over the top way unbelievable!

  619. I love paranormal romance—friends to lovers or the bad boy/antihero wins over the good girl who is not-so-wholesome herself.

  620. I think I like most tropes. Honestly I’m just learning that term because I didn’t know there was a word for different romance stories. I love ones where the guy is super protective.

  622. Funny, I love the reverse harem books. Maybe it’s the childhood low self esteem, but 3 plus guys all focused on me…does wonders for the ego.

  629. Forgive me, I can’t remember if I entered this one. If I already did, I apologize.
    Dark Bully Romance!! 😍.

  631. I like Romantic Mysteries and to a certain point Dark Romance. I enjoy erotic and f there is a plot to the story, not just all sex.

  632. I do mostly audio and mostly MM, and I always answer this question with hurt/comfort. But I love your books and they don’t really keep with that, so… ?
    Your books tickle my brain, and that’s sexy AF, no matter the tropes.

  634. It’s a tie between the best friend/best friend’s sibling/sibling’s best friend and hero/mission for me – though there quite a few I like

    Reply

  636. Romances are best if there’s a mystery. I love gothic romance types like the governess and the brooding master of the house and maybe a ghost or two.

    Reply

  638. It all depends on my mood as to what gets my interest. But currently the last few books I’ve read have been stepbully reads.

  640. Alpha mate love stories are my fave type of romance books, but love lots of types of supernatural/sci fi type love plots

    Reply

  641. Anti hero alpha meets sassy smarty heroine (i don’t know if that’s an actual trope ..but i like those kind of books)

    Reply

  642. As long as the story is well written, and the narrators are good (being sick and in chronic pain, it’s much easier for me to listen to books), I enjoy lots of different tropes in the romance genre: Age gap, Taboo — Boss/Employee, Teacher/Student (Eighteen definitely falls into this category. This was one of the first books I ever listened to when I joined Audible and it was my first ever JA Huss book… It absolutely blew my mind… It’s like no other book I’ve ever listened to, in this specific category… Crazy good!!!), Morally Grey, Enemies to lovers, Friends to lovers, Dark Romance, “Psychological/Suspenseful” Romance, Erotica (The Turning Series would fall into this category, I think… I LOVE this series… Incredibly well written… Erotica at its finest). Julie, I think you could write just about anything and I would love it. I’ve purchased every book you’ve written that’s available on Audible, and I’ve listened to most of them, and there isn’t one that I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed. I just love how your mind works… It’s magic!! Thanks again for this awesome giveaway and for the opportunity. Happy Holidays!! 🎄❤️

  643. I am forever a goner for second-chance romance. That moment when the couple sees each other again had better be epic or else I’m a gonna complain, LOUDLY! It gets me each and every time.

    Reply

    1. My favs are enemies to lovers and reverse harem/why choose! I really like grumpy/sunshine and second chances (with lots of angst, lol) too.

      Reply

  649. My favorite romance tropes are enemies to lovers and slow burn. I feel like they give more context and excitement to the story!

    Reply

  654. I don’t know if I could pick a favorite trope. I read/listen based on my mood. I’m currently listening to a paranormal, fated mates, RH. I love me some morally grey, touch her and die, dark romance. I usually sprinkle in a good smutty rom com every now and then to lighten things up. Love a good insta love, fated mates, he falls first, mafia, MC, small town, forced proximity, the list is endless. As long as its spicy with good well developed storyline/plot with a HEA and great narrators then I am happy. Oh and of course ANYTHING written by JA Huss. 🖤

  655. Love a good loner guy, morally gray. Age-gap is good b/c that’s my story. When I need to lighten things up lately I go with a nanny storyline.

    Reply

  656. My favorite is dark romances. Bonus points if it is dark dystopian. I love a good anti-hero and a brother or sisters best friend.

    Reply

  660. Honestly, I’m not too picky! Gimme all the tropes – enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, second chance, why choose, grumpy meets sunshine, age gap, billionaire, arranged marriage. I love it all! Lately, I’ve ventured into fantasy so I’m open to it all.

    Reply

  664. My favorite trope is definitely opposites attract. I like how the characters are so different, but still have a way to find common ground and compromise.

THE DANGER IN THE DAMAGE

A soldier searching for redemption.
A man addicted to control.
And the woman caught between them…

Ean Shephard knows trouble when he sees it and Olive Creed is the kind of trouble that can burn his whole world down. As Collin Creed’s baby sister, she’s completely off-limits. But her quiet strength, combined with her sad vulnerability, keeps pulling him closer. Shep came to Edge Security to escape his past, but falling for Olive could ruin his second chance and the fragile peace he’s fought so hard to find.

Brose Sinclair has always played the long game. He and Olive are more than just partners inside the shadow organization they both work for, they’re lovers. His absolute authority keeps her on track and Olive likes it that way. But her sudden attraction to their target threatens everything they’ve worked for and for the first time, Brose finds himself questioning whether control is enough to keep Olive by his side.

Olive Creed has spent her life learning to play her role perfectly. She can’t afford to mess up. Not with Brose watching her every move, looking for mistakes. Mistakes she sometimes makes on purpose just to spur on his titillating punishment. But as she starts to fall for her target and her world begins to crumble beneath her feet, Olive finds herself wondering—which one of these two men would truly be there in her darkest hour?

Brose—the one who owns her mind?

Or Shep—the one who wants her heart?

The Danger in the Damaged is a battlefield of betrayal and control, where loyalty is a weapon and obsession takes no prisoners. It’s a best-friend’s-little-sister romance caught in the crossfire of dark secrets and mind games—and this time, Collin Creed isn’t the one calling the shots.

Inside the pages you’ll find…

Enemies to Lovers
Best Friend’s Sister
Power Dynamics
Forbidden Love
Dark Protector
Forced Proximity
Possessive Love
Morally Gray Characters
Damaged Heroes
Redemption Arc
