Clean Romance Books Set in Tennessee

Tennessee is country music and Smoky Mountains and small town Southern, sometimes all in the same book.

Every book on this page is set somewhere in Tennessee, all clean and no spice. The state's particular flavor is the music and the front porch pace of summer evenings. The hospitality reads as real because most of these writers grew up there. On the list: Nashville love stories about songwriters and producers, small town Smoky Mountain romances with cabin and fireplace energy, a few contemporaries set in Memphis with blues running through them, and the occasional Sevierville or Pigeon Forge tourist town romance.
