Note: I am, of course, going to include my books in this. I skipped a few I don't have suggestions for.
Character smells like fresh cut grass
Song Lyrics: Oh hello, both I Belong to You and Presented with Love would work for this.
I Hate Everyone But You: Zomromcom by Olivia Dade
National Park: Hello again, I Belong to You fits here as well, with Rock Creek Park. Of Kings and Queens also mentions the Mall.
Heatwave: Hot Earl Summer by Erica Ridley
Dual Timeline: Cosmic Love at the Multiverse Hair Salon by Annie Mare
Canoe: Flirting With Disaster by Naina Kumar
TRB Summer 2026 Author: Shirlene Obuobi's Between Friends and Lovers would work this, or you could wait til July for the new one.
Florist: Hello, both Aloha to You and Of Kings and Queens have brief appearances of the same florist.
Middle child:
Cover has an old house on it: Love in All the Haunted Places by Claire Kann, A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeepig by Sangu Mandanna
Soccer/World Cup: I confess, I have not read a lot of recent soccer romance, but I did enjoy Rebecca Crowley's Crossing Hearts.
Rodeo: Huge fan of Kari Lynn Dell here, especially Tangled in Texas.
Podcaster - Back After This by Linda Holmes is really more women's fiction, but does have a pro podcaster. Same with Regina Black's August Lane.
Wedding Party: Hello again, we have Undercover Bridesmaid.
Royal Title in the Title - Oh hello, we have Of Kings and Queens
Don't Fall in Love with Me - Andrea Tang's To The Death would work well here.
End of summer deadline - Jodi McAlister's An Academic Affair has multiple deadlines, but as they are academics, end of summer, is definitely part of it. Also, Get Over it April Avans by Ashley Herring Blake.
Single Parent - One in a Million by Beverley Kendall
Happy reading!
