As you've said that you favour historical, regency and paranormal, I'd like to recommend a contemporary romance -- just to spice things up. I think you should look at Anna And The French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins.

Quote:
Anna is looking forward to her senior year in Atlanta, where she has a great job, a loyal best friend, and a crush on the verge of becoming more. Which is why she is less than thrilled about being shipped off to boarding school in Paris -- until she meets Étienne St. Clair. Smart, charming, beautiful, Étienne has it all... including a serious girlfriend.

But in the City of Light, wishes have a way of coming true. Will a year of romantic near-misses end with their long-awaited French kiss?
All but one of my GoodReads friends (of those who have read it - over ten!) have rated it 4-5/5. YA-with-romantic-overtones author John Green (An Abundance Of Katherines, The Fault In Our Stars) has recommended it more than once in his vlog. It's been nominated for three awards: Cybils Award for Young Adult Fiction, The Inky Awards, The Abraham Lincoln Award.
