The Invention of Wings by Sue Monk Kidd has dual protagonists. It's set in the American South in the nineteenth century and tells the interwoven stories of a young girl of privilege (based on Sarah Grimke') and the slave who is given to her as a child.
Did you perhaps mean dual protagonists but not romances? Because dual protagonists that ARE romances are far from rare.That said, Locked Rooms by Laurie R. King is one dual-protagonist (only slightly romance-y, given that the main characters are married) story that I like a lot.
If you enjoy mysteries, two long-running series by Anne Perry are also dual-protagonist. They begin with The Cater Street Hangman and The Face of a Stranger.
You may also like Yangsze Choo's new novel, The Night Tiger, which is told from the alternating perspectives of a night-club dancer and a young boy.If you don't mind three perspectives, The Huntress by Kate Quinn is wonderful. Also Pam Jenoff's The Lost Girls of Paris.

Thank you so much C.P.! The Night Tiger sounds intriguing.
