Vacation Romances To Read

  Personally, I can't stand the romantic reads where it's a summer fling kinda thing. Absolutely not. No thanks!  If I want to read a book with a good romance in it, I want one I can root for that is not obviously just a brief thing! So what Noel means by ''Vacation Romances'' is this: reads where the meeting (usually) takes place on some kind of vacation/trip, but it's not a come-and-go trip, the love interest is someone that they'd be able to be around or see again outside of just however long the vacation was 🙄.   I understand that there might not be a big difference to most but for me, I love to cheer on a romance that doesn't feel like a fling.
