A Long Petal of the Sea by by Isabel Allende

This brand new read from romance titan Isabel Allende follows pregnant widow Roser and her deceased lover's brother, Victor as they flee fascist Spain aboard a ship chartered by the poet Pablo Neruda.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

This 1813 book is so old, it's free if you have a Kindle! And you should definitely take advantage of that – it's basically the O.G. romance novel. If you're already a Jane Austen stan, check out Curtis Sittenfeld's reinterpretation Eligible, which sets Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy in modern-day Cincinnati.

The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough

This sweeping multigenerational tale of life on a sheep station in the Outback often gets described as "an Australian Gone With the Wind," so if you love that classic, try this one on for size. The romance primarily focuses on an illicit affair between Maggie, a resident on the remote ranch, and a handsome priest.
