Meet the Editorial Voice

I’m the reader behind Romanceaholic, a romance strategist, devoted annotator, and lifelong believer that love stories deserve serious attention.

I read across the genre from soft comfort to high-angst intensity, always guided by one question:

Did the love hold?

Romanceaholic doesn’t chase trends.

It examines devotion.

Every recommendation is selected for what it delivers emotionally, structurally, and memorably, not for how loudly it’s promoted.

Here, you’ll find thoughtful curation, honest perspective, and love stories that linger long after the final page.

Your next fictional obsession might be waiting here.

Romanceaholic 🖤

What You’ll Find Here

• Curated romance recommendations
