Romance books are all about deep attachments between the hero and heroine who are often caught in a web of deep love though something or somebody always plays the spoilsport and ruins things till they are able to overcome these impediments and achieve true and everlasting love in the end. The best example of a romance book is however found in works of literature rather than in fiction and Shakespeare perhaps wrote the most erotic of all romance books.

Feelings Of Deep Love

A good romance book will show the main protagonists expressing their feelings and love for each other and these feelings need to be communicated by the author with depth and clarity. It must contain shared feelings between the hero and heroine and there must never be lack of trust. Once a reader gets started with reading a romance book, he or she should be made to develop a physical as well as overpowering craving to read the book end to end.

Some of the better romance books are what are called ‘Keepers’ or those books to which readers become so attached to that they would never dream of parting with them and will in fact, read them over and over again. Such books could mean so much to readers that they will not stop reading these books even if they are cooking food and so have ended up ruining many dishes because they had become so engrossed in the book that they forgot all sense of time.

Some romance books have a very powerful effect on the reader that leads to them becoming totally immersed in what is taking place in the plot and so, they forget the outside world for a short space of time and turn a deaf ear to the pleas of other family members who keep requesting that the book be put down.

Of course, not every romance book that you will come across will be a ’Keeper’ because many are no better than ‘duds’, though once a person has read numerous romance books, it can make their expectations soar and that means that they will settle for nothing but the best.

The best romance novels are things of personal taste though many of them are drawn from Western culture and are mostly read in the English speaking parts of the world.

The better the romance book is, the harder it is to put it down and only exhaustion or sleep will make the reader quit reading the book. It is also very easy to get hooked to such books and some people even have spent hours surfing the Internet looking for new and recommended romance books. The addiction however is not dangerous and by laying your hands on a well written book you can be assured of enjoying many hours of happy reading.

Romance Novel Should Be More Than About Sex

The common perception about a romance novel is that it will have a very attractive cover and a real hero that will be chasing half naked women who are being troubled by a wicked person. It is of course, wrong to judge a book by its cover and if the author does not fall into the usual trap of succumbing to writing a stereotype novel, a romance novel should in fact contain a lot more than details about lurid sex.

Conflict And Challenges

The essence of a romance novel is a conflict or even a challenge that requires that either the hero or the heroine overcomes, and the journey through it all is laced with fun experiences and many thrilling moments.

It is only after having written a number of romance novels that an author will be able to craft a story that has everything in it such as action, great character, suspense and mystery and a little bit of sex thrown in as well. There are many romance novels that contain lurid details of sex and passion that are meant to elicit a certain kind of response from the reader. It is far better to get the reader to identify closely with the trials and tribulations of the hero and heroine as they go from one sub-plot to the other, rather than elicit base reactions from the reader.

Romance novels are not something new and they have been around ever since books were first published though fads in them have come and gone, and so, these types of novels too have changed and evolved with the times. Heroes can range from an average American to real macho men and there are sure to be pirates as well as other kinds of villains and the plot will often take you to different places and through different times and the reader does, for a short period of time, become totally immersed in the plots and forget their daily and humdrum lives.

The better romance novels go beyond innuendo and sex and they have good and interesting plots that make the reader closely identify with the main characters and such novels are a lot better than those that simply concentrate on narrating about hot romance between the protagonists.

It is a good idea to check out the synopsis of a romance novel before choosing it and you need to also look for a plot that excites the senses, a good challenge and great characters – all of which will provide you with hours of pleasurable reading.

There is a lot of interesting stuff contained in a romance book that can often make it hard to set it down till the final word has been read, and if you are lucky perhaps you will be able to lay your hands on one such book. The best part about reading a good romance novel is that the reader is always unsure about what is going to happen next, and so the reader cannot wait till he or she reaches the climax and finds out the ‘truth’.
