Where to Start With My Books (And What to Read Next) 💜📚

 If you’re new to my books, start here. 

No seriously. I know opening a new romance world can feel a little chaotic. One minute you’re casually looking for romance book recommendations… the next you’re emotionally attached to fictional billionaires with communication issues and protective tendencies. It happens fast around here. 

So if you’re wondering where to begin, I’ve got you 😏 

Start With: Pretending to Be His 💍 

If you love billionaire romance series with tension, banter, emotional payoff, and a man who falls way harder than he planned to… start with Pretending to Be His

This book is the foundation of the Bennetti world, and honestly? Alex Bennetti still causes problems for readers in the best way. 

You’ll get:

 • fake dating chaos

 • slow-burn tension

 • forced proximity

 • protective billionaire energy

 • a strong heroine who absolutely keeps him on his toes 

It’s fun, emotional, messy in all the right ways, and the perfect entry point if you’re looking for romance books to binge. 

Then Continue With the Bennetti Boys 👀 

Once you start the Bennetti Boys series, you’ll keep seeing familiar faces pop up—which means the emotional payoff gets even better as the books continue. 

Playing House brings opposites-attract chaos, emotional growth, and a man who thrives on routine getting absolutely wrecked by a woman who lives like the universe personally challenged her to cause problems. 

Then there’s Hide and Speak, which leans more into enemies-to-lovers tension, marriage-of-convenience drama, and the kind of chemistry that probably should come with a warning label. 

The best part? The Bennetti family dynamic keeps growing with every book. So the deeper you get into the series, the more connected everything becomes. 

And Then… There’s Marco 😮‍💨 

Marco’s book is coming. 

And if you’ve already met him in the Bennetti world, you know exactly why readers keep asking for his story. 

The vibe shifts a little with him. It’s still emotional, still intense—but sharper. More deliberate. Marco doesn’t feel like chaos. He feels like control right before something dangerous happens. 

Which, naturally, makes him very fun to write. 

Want Something Zestier? Enter: Kiss a Villain 💋 

If you love romance books like LJ Shen with enemies-to-lovers tension, sharp banter, emotional conflict, and morally gray men who absolutely should not be that attractive… Kiss a Villain is probably your next obsession. 

It’s darker than the Bennetti Boys world, messier emotionally, and built around conflict from the very beginning. Reputation drama, tension, and two people who genuinely do not know how to leave each other alone. 

Basically? A great life choice for readers. 

So Where Should You Start? ✨ 

Start with Pretending to Be His.

 Then binge the Bennetti Boys.

 Then let Kiss a Villain ruin your emotional stability a little. 

Honestly? That’s the ideal reading order 💜
