Ali Hazelwood Books in Order: Where to Start
May 7, 2026
Ali Hazelwood cornered a niche and made it huge: STEM romance — brainy heroines, academic rivals, and a lot of heart. The good news for new readers: her adult novels are standalones.
The adult romances
- The Love Hypothesis (2021) — the breakout: a fake-dating PhD romance
- Love on the Brain (2022) — rival neuroscientists at NASA
- Love, Theoretically (2023) — a physicist juggling identities
- Bride (2024) — her vampire/werewolf paranormal romance
- Deep End (2025) — a diving-and-desire sports-adjacent romance
She also writes YA (Check & Mate) and novellas.
Where to start
Start with The Love Hypothesis — it is the one that defined her voice and the easiest entry point. After that, read by trope or premise; they are standalones.
If you love witty romance
