100 Indie Romantasy Books You Need to Read Right Now


Hello, my bookish friends!


This post is for die-hard fans of romantasy. I’m talking dragons, lost princesses, training montages, stabby FMC’s, and fated mates kind of romantasy. I’m talking hidden magical powers, dark brooding shadow daddies, and names like Penellaphe, Feyre, and Diem kind of romantasy.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably devoured all the popular titles (I probably don’t need to name names but you know the popular ones I’m talking about) and are hungry for something new. Not that there’s anything wrong with books like Throne of Glass, Fourth Wing, ACOTAR, and From Blood and Ash. Quite the opposite actually! But sometimes it can be hard to find something different that will bring us out of a reading slump and mayyyybe try to make us feel the feels we felt when reading those iconic series for the first time.

That’s where I kick down your door and say “Help is on the way, dear!” (a la Mrs. Doubtfire).

You see, I have ADHD. So I made a list. And this list is the kind of list that I think every Romantasy lover needs in their life.

Drum roll, please 🥁 

My list is called “100 Indie Romantasy Books You Need to Read Right Now!” I’ve scoured the depths of indie publishing to bring you hidden gems and soon-to-be favorites that deserve a spot on your bookshelf (or Kindle). And believe me when I tell you, these books made me feel all the feels. They had all the shadow daddies, all the enemies to lovers, and all the dragon-riding, sword-wielding, sassy and badass FMC’s a girl could ever ask for.

Why Indie Romantasy?


Indie authors are some of the most creative storytellers out there, often pushing the boundaries of traditional genres. In the Romantasy world, that means fresh takes on beloved tropes, unexpected twists, and characters that linger in your mind long after you’ve turned the last page. Plus, by diving into indie books, you’re supporting passionate creators who not only pour their hearts into every word, but are often running their own PR teams, promoting their own ARC’s, and actively engaging in their community of readers. It’s kind of like the author equivalent of a small business. And we love supporting those!

What to Expect from This List:


This isn’t just another listicle. I’ve personally selected each book based on its swoon-worthy romance, immersive world-building, and unforgettable characters. Whether you’re looking for a slow-burn love story, enemies-to-lovers tension, or an epic fantasy with a dash of romance, you’ll find it here. And because it’s all about indies, you might just discover your next favorite author.

Here’s a little teaser of what’s inside the guide:

1. The Witch Collector by Charissa Weaks: A young witch loses her sister, blaming one person for her loss: the Witch Collector. She plans to kill him, but instead finds herself relying on him for survival, learning of his dark past, and working with him to save the king and find her sister.
2. The Serpent and the Wings of Night, by Carissa Broadbent: Think if Hunger Games had vampires, where a human raised by the Vampire King must compete in games and trials where the winner is the last one standing. Only she ends up making an ally that she may not be able to defeat when the time comes. 
3. Spark of the Everflame by Penn Cole: A slow-burn romance that blossoms between a mortal healer and the dark, brooding prince when they meet and feel a connection that neither of them can explain. (I’m also an officially licensed fan artist for Penn because that’s how OBSESSED I am with this series 😍)

…And that’s just the beginning! The full guide has 97 more amazing titles waiting to be discovered.
