Recs please: romantic suspense/thriller

AshleyT121 · October 2013

I'm looking for a really good romantic thriller. Something really creepy or suspenseful with a romantic twist. Stand alone or series is fine. Paranormal is fine, or not. I'm easy.

Of those that I see rec'd often, I've read NR's Sign of Seven trilogy, as well as Three Sisters (does that technically fit the bill? I don't know). I started the Key Trilogy, but I didn't love it so I haven't continued beyond the first book.

I tend to think of her trilogies as more romance than thriller but her standalones are good. Try Chasing Fire.

I agree! I'm looking for something with a bit more of a creep factor, but I love the romantic elements too.

I feel like maybe I've reading Chasing Fire. I'll have to check GR.

ETA: nope! I haven't. Added!

ETA again: Maybe I should say "creep factor" and/or suspense.

Have you read The Fever series? If not, you should try it!

Homeport and Sanctuary are good as well. Would you do medical thrillers with a tiny bit of romance?

Linda Howard writes romantic thrillers. They're pretty good.

Sure!

Try the Kay Scarpetta series by Patricia Cornwell. Very well written and researched.

I read Every Breath She Takes by Norah Wilson a while back and enjoyed it. It's about a psychic who can foresee people's deaths and tries to stop them. Not really creepy at all though.

Have you read the Black Dagger Brotherhood? I am kind of heavily involved with that series right now and really enjoying it. And even though it's about vampires, vampires aren't really my thing, and I like the series anyway.
