Love Me Till Wednesday by Suzanne Lissaman (Self Published):

After my surprise and excitement at winning last year’s RNA Debut Romantic Novel Award, I didn’t expect to be lucky enough to be shortlisted for the 2025 Romantic Comedy Award. I’m beyond delighted that the judges enjoyed my latest book. Promoting your work as a self-published author is hard but getting recognition like this is extremely helpful. I really appreciate it.

The Happy Place by L.K. Wilde (Self Published):

Being shortlisted for such a prestigious award is an incredible honour, especially considering the RNA’s standing as a powerhouse in romantic fiction and the tough competition my book faced. As an author, there’s no greater feeling than knowing your work has been read and enjoyed, and to be shortlisted captures this feeling and multiplies it by a hundred!
