I started reading some romantacy books over the last years and I really enjoyed it. I love fantasy novels for the world building and interesting themes. Adding some romance in there adds some extra spice and focuses on more character driven. Overall I would recommend

    I've been kind of basic bitch so far since this is new for me. So these are likely the most basic suggestions.

    I enjoyed The Empyrean Series (Fourth Wing, Iron Wing and Onyx's Strom). There are dragons, war, forbidden love all good elements. I thought it was only a trilogy buts its planned to be like 5 books. So I feel like Onyx storm felt like it had some filler portions but that might change as more books come out.

    I also read the Ending Fire Trilogy which was sold more as a romance than it actually was. The first book was good and the two other two were okay. I feel like there was more potential than it actually succeeded.

    I didn't love A Court of Thorns and Roses but I hear the others in the series were good. I feel like I could guess the romance subplot and the main story from the get go. People do love to the series. I guess I am not that much into fairies.

    I actually found these books by looking at Dipsea's Blog for their romance recommendations. I was trying to better understand the female gaze and they had some good recommendations.
