Preferred term

romance fiction  

Definition(s)

  • Romance fiction typically must have two elements: (1) a central love story and (2) an emotionally satisfying and optimistic ending. Romance fiction is particularly relevant to gender and society for issues of content—how it reinstates or challenges traditional gender expectations—and for how readers use it in social space.
