Stuck at Home Alone - Five Romance Stories You Can Read on Saint Valentine’s Day

It may come as no surprise, but some men and women do not have a partner to celebrate Saint Valentine’s Day. Moreover, with COVID-19 still here, along with the discovery of a new strain, folks should avoid traveling, large gatherings, and remain home. Many couples also have a long-distance relationship.

Therefore, we have listed five romance books that you can read on this special day. If you are lucky to have someone in your life with you, read the stories together.

No more will she settle for someone who does not measure up to her high standards, which she did when she first met her husband, Horatio Jones. When he became successful, he dumped her.

Royal Cowries by Stella-Eromonsere-Ajanaku

This saga takes place during the late 1400s in Igodomigodo, an ancient city in Nigeria where men rule and women are beholden to the statutes of the land, a time where tradition, religion, combat, loyalty, principles, romance, love, and passion define a nation. But when Uvbi, a true feminist is ordered by her authoritarian father to marry a ruthless warrior, she disobeys his demands and flees. When she crosses paths with Nagudia, a  humble craftsman and warrior, it sets the backdrop for an absorbing romantic story.
