Whether it’s enchanted gardens, whispering trees, or entire kingdoms built around nature’s power, these books are perfect for anyone who wants their romance and their fantasy with a side of breathtaking scenery.

1. The Foxglove King by Hannah Whitten

If you love dark forests, forbidden magic, and a heroine navigating a deadly world, The Foxglove King delivers all the atmospheric vibes. With lush, gothic greenery and a decaying kingdom infused with death magic, this one’s for the romantasy readers who like their nature a little eerie but utterly captivating.

2. The Serpent & the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent

Okay, so this book leans more toward blood-soaked arenas and dark romance, but let’s not forget the desert moonscapes and ancient, vine-covered ruins. It’s got that primal, untamed nature vibe that makes everything feel even more epic—like you could get lost (or fall in love) in the vastness of the world.

3. The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

This book is basically a fever dream for book lovers, but the enchanted underground world of hidden doors, moss-covered libraries, and secret gardens makes it a must-read for nature lovers too. Every scene feels drenched in magic, like stepping into a fairytale wrapped in vines and moonlight.

4. Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett

If you love the cozy academia meets wild fae lands aesthetic, this book is it. Set in a remote northern village, the book is filled with glacial forests, hidden faerie realms, and untouched natural beauty. It’s the kind of story that makes you want to run away to a tiny cabin in the woods and maybe befriend some trickster fae.

5. One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig

Dark, misty forests, eerie old magic, and a kingdom wrapped in shadows—One Dark Window is dripping in atmosphere. The monster-haunted woods and creeping fog make the setting feel alive, and the slow-burn romance only adds to the book’s lush, gothic fairytale vibes.

6. The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden

This book is winter itself. Set in a medieval Russian-inspired landscape, it’s full of snow-covered forests, ancient spirits, and a heroine who speaks with the wild things. It’s the kind of story you read while curled up with a blanket, pretending you live in a fairy tale.

7. Silver in the Wood by Emily Tesh

For those who love deep, ancient forests with an air of myth, this one’s for you. It’s got Green Man folklore, a reclusive forest guardian, and a slow-burn romance that feels as timeless as the woods themselves. It’s short, atmospheric, and absolutely dripping in nature magic.
