Best Christian Romance Novels

Last Updated on August 21, 2023 by ellen

If you’ve been searching for the best Christian romance novels, I wanted to share a few of my picks with you. As much as I love to read Christian romance books, I’m not a fan of some heroines. I prefer romance books with strong, independent women as heroines; sometimes, that’s difficult to find in the Christian genre.
