In the past, stereotypical romance novels were quite formulaic. The plot mainly revolved around courtship and marriage. But over time, the themes have diversified. For example, there are now romance novels that deal with issues like mental health and social justice within the context of a love story. The characters have also become more complex. They are no longer just one - dimensional lovers but have their own careers, dreams, and flaws.

Originally, stereotypical romance novels were more focused on traditional gender roles. The male was the strong protector and the female was the damsel in distress. Now, we see more equality in the characters. Also, in the past, the settings were more limited, but now they can be anywhere from modern cities to outer space.
