I just finished book 2 in the Tales of Inthya series and I'm absolutely loving it! absolutely recommend.
I would definitely recommend Jae's "Wrong Number, Right Woman" if you are okay with lovers having an age gap ~ not the one character being in early 20s and another in late 30s (if this works for you then, great!) but both of them are mature adults so no grooming there, for sure ~ of more than 5 years and slow burn romance. Has great communication with lil to no drama.

Enjoy!
The Crimson Petal and the White, and Fingersmith are both good sapphic books. They are a little bit Victorian drama-ey but I'm sure you'd be ok with them. Great love stories ultimately 🌈💖
Chris Zett's newest book Flipping Hearts and Homes is a cozy read. Things happen at the beginning, but all the drama is skipped over, which was lovely. I'm mid-read and really enjoying it!
I haven’t read it yet but I’ve had my eye on it for a while now. “Legends and Lattes” if you like fantasy!
Legends & Lattes was super cute; a book that personally didn't hit my taste so much but I've seen other people enjoy very much is The Honey WitchIf you enjoy graphic novels I'd also recommend Brooms (it does deal with the realities of being non-white, queer and trans in the US tho, so does have a few tougher moments) and Stage Dreams; for very little drama check out Doughnuts and Doom or Princess Princess Ever After
I’ve just begun reading Under the Singing Bridge and already, it’s clear this one is going to stay with me for a long time.~I NEED TO DISCUSS THIS BOOK WITH SOMEONE...ANYONE!!!!

Ooooh - thank you! :)
The Honey Witch by Sydney J. Shields is a cute sapphic fantasy! Very minimum spice but a really cute storyline!
I know this is probably violating some rules but I have a book that fits what you're looking forhttps://www.everand.com/book/73348934...
The Year is 1937, the place Hollywood. Gracie Powell was a married movie star who was living a lie, her marriage to Alfred Powell was a sham, set up to hide her attraction to other women.

The book is also available on Amazon, B & N, Smashwords and other online retailers.

Gaza was a war zone, thousands of innocent men, women and children being killed every day. It was here that Katie had volunteered, her sympathy towards those caught up in the senseless slaughter was unwavering with compassion. Nia was a mercenary, trained to kill. She was an expert in dealing with absolutes. The moment Kate and Nia met, the horrors of the conflict melted away as their love consumed them. As their love grew amidst the carnage of war, the two women were thrown together in a situation that no one should have to face.
I just started Under the Singing Bridge by Shannon Rhozier Carlen- it came highly recommended and it has not disappointed~

At Her ServiceI anticipated a delightful love story infused with elements of personal development, and indeed, what I got was that and much more.

you guys have to read "Soaring Tide: When two lost souls meet…"by Martina D. I think no one has read this book before and I FULLY recommend. I sobbed, threw up, smiles, giggled,... It's a must MM read !
For the Love of Christmas: A Vineyard Christmas RomanceIt is an enjoyable read. Is rich in drama, and a hint of will they or won't " they won't they" aspect, but not enough to detract from the overall pleasant and uplifting experience.
These are some of my favourite sapphic (YA) books:- one last stop
- pride and prejudice and Pittsburg (/and the city)
- Cinderella is dead
- cries war
- the falling in love montage
- not my problem
- the honey witch
I’m always happy for more recs
She Drives Me Crazy is an amazing book! Two rivals crash their cars into each other, and their moms make them carpool with each other. After spending together, they begin to fake date and fall for each other. I love the romance in this story, and I would highly recommend it!
She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson DerrickHani and Ishu’s Guide to Fake Dating and The Henna Wars by Adiba Jaigirdar
The No-Girlfriend Rule by Christen Randall
The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School by Sonora Reyes
Imogen, Obviously by Becky Albertalli
Gwen & Art Are Not in Love by Lex Croucher
Just finished Hayley Cass’ latest Snowball Effect… her stuff is always funAlso recommend one last stop by Casey McQuiston
Another member recommended that and if you have not read it, it is definitely worth a read
The Planck ParadoxI’ve had the book for a little over two hours, and I’ve already finished reading it.
I enjoyed the chemistry between the two leading ladies. I laughed a lot at their interactions.
Do yourself a service; don't take my word for it; read it for yourself.
Take Her Onke Her is another slice-of-life, considerate, sweet by Emily Wright. Also, steamy. Very, very steamy some creative ways. Like her other works, Wright crafts a relatable story with down-to-earth, lovable characters you feel known your whole life. Maya and Jamie have some difficulty growing as they face the inevitable changes that come with age. The way the author built the tension between them, from field rivals to cheesy duet singers, was fabulous. With insulting banter that made cackle and “awwww” throughout the whole, Maya and Jamie come a long way together. Learning to embrace change (and each other) isn all that bad.
At Her ServiceIt is my policy to include a recommendation that I have written in addition to another not written by me (chosen by based on a 5 star review left by someone else)
She Is Not Our Son
I hope you will give it a chance - Enjoy
Redsight by Meredith Mooring is amazing! Unhinged Lesbians for the win.The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez, lesbian POC vampire MC, written in 1991. A masterpiece.
