These are the only true series I can think of at the moment. The rest of my favorites are all trilogies.

   You really should try them Sandra. They're hilarious and you'll LOL. Just keep in mind they're totally frivolous, but you can't beat them for pure fun.

   In no particular order…

The Bridgerton’s series- Julia Quinn (historical)
The Chicago Stars series- SEP (contemporary)
The Travis series- Lisa Kleypas (contemporary)
The Wallflowers series- Lisa Kleypas (historical)
The Hot Zone series- Carly Phillips (contemporary)
The Macgregor series- Nora Roberts (contemporary)
School for Heiress series- Sabrina Jefferies (historical)
Tied**
The Pleasures Trilogy- Eloisa James (historical) &
The Boscastle series –Jillian Hunter (historical)

I didn’t add the Hathaway series by Lisa Kleypas or the Bride Quartet series by Nora Roberts because they both have 2 books yet to be released, but I love them both so far I’m sure they’ll bump some of the other series off my list of favs soon.

   And there's another one I forgot to mention...the Lakeshore Chronicles by Susan Wiggs.

Also, the quilting series by Emilie Richards...or maybe it's called the Shenendoah Valley series.

   Oh yes! Susan Mallery, too. I really enjoyed her Sweet series, but the Buchanan series was much better. Loved it.
