You are actually so right Megan, I just searched my book shelf and came up almost empty. All of my romance books are either from the female lead’s perspective, or switching through the two, but the female lead is still the main character and thereof perspective, and the male lead doesn’t get that much time in the spotlight. I do have one book though, it is called Pumpkin by Julie Murphy, and the only reason it is from the males perspective is because it is a gay love story and both the leads are males. So yeah. Wow, you waited two hours to get a response and I bet I was so very very helpful.
The only romance I can think of that’s not a MM romance is Hooked by Emily McIntire. It’s considered dark romance though, so I’d check the trigger warnings. The book is a play on Peter Pan with Hook as the main character.
I'm not sure what genres you want, but I tend to not see books that are mostly from the guy's perspective when it's romance unless it's a MM romance. Here's some recs that I have off the top of my head and I'll include genres since not all of these are romance.Adult MF romance: A Lot Like Adiós - there is female perspective, too, but it's a fairly even split where they each get about the same amount of chapters
Adult MF historical romance: The Wren - same situation with this one and I remember that this one in particular had most of the steamiest scenes from the guy's POV
Adult MM romance: The Charm Offensive
YA fantasy: Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
YA dystopian: The Maze Runner
YA contemporary: Dear Martin
If I can think of more, I'll definitely let you know
