Brave Old World fits that description 🙈 The love story in that one if just 😭😭 Sooo good 🙈

You might really like the Hyacinth (HYACINTH: the average girl) trilogy, too, but I know you don’t have those ;)

Divergent
The Wonderland Trials
Nightweaver
Firedark
Mortal Queens
The Unraveling of Emlyn DuLaine
Romanov
A Curse for True Love

ok thx gorgeous

Don’t know if you’ve already read it, but a thousand heartbeats by Kiera Cass is one of my all time favorite fantasy books!

Okay! I haven't yet!

Me really wanting to recommend Revival right now and then realizing that it's not out yet. Sci-fi/dystopian with completely clean and yearning romance.

I second Romanov, Mortal Queens, and The Unraveling of Emlyn DuLaine. I would add A Legacy of Ink by John W. Otte (fabulous Esther retelling), Protector by Megan Schaulis (techie sci-fi, LOTS of Christianity, awesome love story, another Esther retelling), Recorder by Cathy McCrumb (so much yearning), and Enhanced by Candace Kade (fabulous sci-fi worldbuilding).

Hope that helps!

Firedark by Mereda Hart Farynyk
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins (probably read this already lol)
The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
The Light through Ancient Trees by Mereda Hart Farynyk
The Selection by Kiera Cass
Caraval by Stephanie Garber

Though this IS a classic and the romance is very small, Dracula by Bram Stoker. It’s SO GOOD! And the sweetest married couple - ugh my heart I think about that book every day it was so good

Okay thanks so much girly!

The Unwanted Princess of Affel is a fun fairy tale with an *adorable* love story.

THE TALIONIS SERIES!!!!! Soooo good!!! Make sure you read Abandoned Shores too, the companion novel. I read it first and LOVED THEM ALL

Okay!! I think that one is on my tbr!

Books you don’t see on booktok recs that are clean. :3

The Scorpio Races, set on a small British island with fantasy realism, romance subplot.

Throne Season, no spice (kissing only) romantasy, court politics, super underrated.

The Prison Healer, romatansy (kissing only), plot twists. I got to add I am impressed by this author to write a clean romantasy in this day and age. Oops I just realized that is a booktok book. :/

One more comment, PLEASE PLEASE GO AND READ THE SCORPIO RACES!!!!🥺
Thorn season would be great to lol, but that’s second after the Scorpio races.

Divergent

Dance of Thieves
