Romance - Stories

Sub-genres: Contemporary Romance, General Romance, Historical Romance, Paranormal Romance, Regency Romance, Rock Star Romance, Romantic Fantasy, Romantic Sci-Fi, Romantic Western, Sports Star Romance
Romance stories focus on primarily on character relationship and development.  There is a strong trope in most, if not all the sub-genres for Romance for a Happily Ever After (HEA) or Happy For Now (HFN).  Violating the HEA/HFN trope should not be done lightly or at a whim, as this tends to turn off readers of this genre.
