Non-romance novels with compelling love stories

Hello all, Design Dude here. I’m the guy who works with Jennifer behind the scenes to make all her awesome content look pretty (or at least I try to). I’m stepping out from behind the curtain to let y’all in on a little secret about our favorite romance blogger. Even though she’s a HUGE romance fan, one of the things I respect most about Jennifer is her willingness to occasionally step outside her comfort zone and give other genres a try. She even convinced me to try a few romance, which led me to discover what she already knew: good writing is good writing, regardless of the genre. With that in mind, I’ve put together a list of some of my favorite non-romance books that feature touching and passionate love stories. Now, I realize most of you are pretty dedicated to the romance genre but if you ever find yourself in an adventurous mood, I humbly suggest you give one of these selections a try.
