Audible recently announced its brand new romance package, which allows Audible members unlimited access to select romance audiobooks for an additional $6.95 and 14.95 for non-members. Audible certainly seem to have the romance community’s varied tastes in mind because the audiobooks are separated by popular tropes, subgenres and yes, steaminess level
First Impressions
I sort of expected this to be like the Kindle Unlimited of audio and that’s what I got, there are lots of indie and smaller press romances. However there is no way to sort by rating or release date, so discovery is difficult. What I didn’t expect was the large range of Harlequin categories and the great picks in the YA section. I do wonder how much momentum Audible can keep up with when it comes to the catalog.
With that in mind here are some Romance and Sensibility Approved recommendations:
