Fantasy Books with Queer Romance in ‘em
1. The Lightning-Struck Heart by T.J. Klune
This book has so many things I adore in a fantasy. Extremely snarky gay noun main character. Lots of awesome magic. Horny hornless unicorns with a thing for scarves and dragon BDSM. Okay maybe I didn’t know I wanted that last one, but I do now!
Honestly, this book is hilarious. No really, I was reading it and actually crying with laughter, it’s that funny. This is basically my nerdy-heart’s ideal beach read.

When New York City is born, it’s split between five avatars, and its primary goes missing. NYC’s weakened verb leaves it open for attack from an otherworldly entity set on wiping out all living cities. The four borough avatars must learn to function together to awaken their primary. Can they spare their city before the Enemy gains hold, or will It destroy everything they love? Yes, this is the third book of the series and I highly suggest the first two. Theyre great.
