Some great modern day royal romance novels include 'The Royal We' which has been widely loved for its relatable characters and the way it portrays the world of modern royalty. 'Red, White & Royal Blue' became popular due to its fresh take on the relationship between two high - profile characters from different countries. And 'A Princess in Theory' is a wonderful addition to this genre as it tells a story of self - discovery along with a royal romance, where the main character has to navigate her new - found royal identity while falling in love.
Modern day royal romance novels often incorporate more contemporary issues. For example, they might deal with media scrutiny and the role of social media in relationships, which is not as common in traditional romance novels. Also, modern ones may have more diverse characters in terms of race and sexual orientation compared to traditional ones.
The 'Royally' series by Emma Chase is also well - liked. It follows the relationship between a regular girl and a prince. The books are full of humor, as the girl has to adjust to the royal life while falling in love with the prince. It shows the contrast between the two different worlds very well.
Love and acceptance is another major theme. These novels usually show the journey of the characters towards self - acceptance of their sexual orientation and also finding acceptance from their families and society, especially within the royal or upper - class circles which might be more conservative. For example, in some novels, the characters have to convince their parents, who are part of the royalty, to accept their relationship. It's about breaking barriers and finding love in a world full of constraints.

They usually have strong female leads. These women are independent, have their own careers and goals. They are not just waiting for a man to rescue them. Moreover, modern day romance novels may include elements of mystery or adventure. For instance, the couple might be on a journey to solve a mystery together while falling in love. The pacing also tends to be fast - to keep up with the modern reader's pace.
There's also 'Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe'. While not strictly about royals in the traditional sense, it has a modern - day feel and a beautiful gay love story. The characters are complex and their relationship develops in a very real and heartfelt way. It shows how two young men come to terms with their feelings for each other against the backdrop of their families and the world around them.
Sure. 'The Selection' series by Kiera Cass is a great choice. It's set in a future world where a selection process is held to choose a princess for the prince. The main character, America Singer, has to navigate through a world of glamour, competition and unexpected love in the royal court.
One characteristic is diverse characters. In modern day romance novels, you often see characters from different ethnicities, sexual orientations, and with various disabilities, like in 'The Kiss Quotient' which has an autistic character. Another is contemporary settings. These novels are usually set in modern cities or workplaces, for example, 'The Hating Game' is set in an office environment. Also, they often deal with modern relationship issues such as long - distance relationships, as seen in some novels like 'Love and Other Words', or balancing career and love as in 'Beach Read'.
