I love romance, but I'm tired of romance novels with smut. Can you recommend any good (contemporary) authors/novels that aren't overly cheesy and that go easy on the sex?What are some good, non-trashy romance novels?
Well, a book to try, is Co-opted by Joan Bigwood King. It's on Amazon right now. It's not quite romantic like The Time Traveler's Wife, but it's more about a woman who goes from young and in love to a woman with a family. It's a really great new read. I would definitely recommend it!What are some good, non-trashy romance novels?
Nicholas Sparks books usually have some kind of romance going on, but he doesn't usually describe sex scenes like, say, Nora Roberts or some other romance novelist would. He just leads into the act of making love but is tasteful about it, usually cutting away to afterwards or something like that. I loved "The Guardian" and "A Bend in the Road." Some don't even talk about them making love, so it's pretty PG the whole way. He just makes you cry sometimes (for happy things and sad things)What are some good, non-trashy romance novels?
The Twilight Saga is excellent. It has sex in the last, but it is mostly just suggestive about it - nothing that graphic at all.
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
A very deep and compelling story. I loved it.
Hope this helps :)
