SORRY, BRO by Taleen Voskuni (Berkley Trade Paperback; on sale: January 31, 2023

After breaking up with her tech-bro boyfriend, Nar is thrown into San Francisco’s Armenia social scene by her meddlesome mother who is determined to find her a husband. But there’s one teeny problem: Nar’s not exactly out as bisexual and definitely not interested in finding a husband. Enter Erebunie—a woman equally immersed in the witchy arts as she is in preserving Armenian identity—who Nar is instantly drawn to. Eventually Nar’s worlds collide, but she is determined to claim her happiness: proudly Armenian, proudly bisexual, and proudly herself for the first time.
 
THE NEIGHBOR FAVOR by Kristina Forest (Trade Paperback Original; February 28, 2023)

For avid readers, hopeless romantics, and fans of diverse fiction comes a new rom-com by YA author Kristina Forest. Her adult fiction debut brings together Black representation, the girl-next-door trope, friends-to-lovers, and the book publishing world to warm the hearts of readers everywhere.

Bookish and admittedly awkward Lily has always wanted to be a children’s book editor, but she feels stuck at her job in the nonfiction division with no change in sight. She finds escapism in her correspondence with her favorite fantasy author, until he ghosts her without a word. Months later, she’s trying to move on, starting with finding a date to her sister’s wedding. And the perfect person to help her is Nick, her attractive new neighbor… who just happens to be her favorite fantasy author.
 
COLD-BLOODED LIAR by Karen Rose (Berkley Hardcover; February 28, 2023)

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Karen Rose is a renown master of captivating romantic suspense, consistently delivering a signature mix of heart-pounding action and sexy, nuanced romance.

This spring, Rose begins a high-octane new romantic suspense series set in San Diego, California—full of sun, surf, sand…and serial killers. The first novel of the San Diego Case Files series, COLD-BLOODED LIAR, introduces detective Kit McKittrick and forensic psychologist Sam Reeves who begin an unexpected slow-burn romance as they try to find and stop an elusive serial killer.
 
A WITCH’S GUIDE TO FAKE DATING A DEMON by Sarah Hawley (Berkley Romance Trade Original; On sale March 7, 2023)

Prophesied to be one of the most powerful witches seen in centuries, Mariel Spark is…bad at magic. When a flour summoning spell goes wrong, she finds herself face to face with a very sexy demon who just so happens to want her soul.

As the two are forced to spend time with one another, things heat up faster than you can say, “It’s all just a bunch of hocus pocus.”
 
ANA MARIA AND THE FOX by Liana De la Rosa (Berkley Trade Paperback; April 4, 2023)

Liana De la Rosa makes her Berkley debut with a sizzling forbidden Victorian love story between a Mexican heiress and a shrewd bi-racial British politician in the midst of an untapped historical moment in fiction.

After Ana Maria and her sisters are secretly sent to London to seek refuge from the French occupation of Mexico, they experience their first taste of freedom from their domineering father. Ana Maria quickly catches the eye of Gideon Fox, who has elevated himself as a member of Parliament with the goal of abolishing the Atlantic slave trade. When Ana Maria is caught in the crosshairs of a nefarious nobleman with his own political agenda, Gideon knows he must offer her his hand as protection, but will he lose his heart in the process?
