1. The song of Achilles – a great retelling of the Iliad but with romance
2. The ministry of time, when I tell you I cried like there was no other cry left in me!!
3. The left hand of darkness, ok so not a romance, a sci fi, but noooooo one can tell me the two main characters weren’t in love — they were room mates for most of the book, and one MC rescued the other MC!

It’s not a Romance if the end is tragic. So you need to look for books that aren’t *marketed* as Romance.
