The Love Plan series by J.S. Cooper plays with the idea that love can be planned and controlled. Published in 2020, the two books, The Dating Plan and The Hookup Plan, each feature characters who think they can set rules for their romantic lives, only to have those rules fall apart when genuine emotions get involved. It is a premise Cooper has used effectively in other series, but the Love Plan duology keeps things focused and fun.
The books work well as a pair, with each one telling a complete romance while sharing thematic DNA. The Dating Plan leans into the organized-heroine trope, while The Hookup Plan goes in a steamier direction with a friends-with-benefits setup. Both are quick, entertaining reads that will appeal to fans of lighthearted contemporary romance with just enough conflict to keep pages turning.
