Historical romance readers love finding series to dive into. If you’re like me, though, those endless series with eight family members and even more spinoffs (I’m looking at you, Bridgerton) can be intimidating.
That’s why I love a good trilogy. It gives enough space for us to fall in love with each couple in the series without the anxiety of knowing that there are endless more novels to read afterwards. And luckily, there are lots of historical romance trilogy novels out there to read!
Here are 8 of my favorite historical romance trilogies:
