- M/F romances (man and woman)
- F/F romances (two women, sapphic)
- M/M romances (two men)
- M/M/F romances (polyamorous, two men and a woman)
- First relationship (a character’s first relationship)
- Established relationship (not the beginning of the romance)
- Late in life romance (older protagonists with no recent relationships)
- Previously married (generally widows and widowers)
- Not a romance (books that do not have a romance plot)
