I was thinking, maybe a few... the later Valdemar books maybe? Mage Storms? Or the Bard books? And then on further thought, maybe not.

Also, occasional GLBT/polyamory themes which I don't know if it's something the OP will be sensitive to, but there seems to be a high correlation of people wanting to avoid swearwords such as "hell" and "damn" and also not caring to see depictions of alternative sexuality, if they're doing it for religious reasons.
I had... completely not thought of that. I realized that OP probably didn't want *romances* of any sort, regardless of explicitness level, which included GBLT romance; it hadn't occurred to me that it might include notable GBLT characters. (And poly characters. I don't think it would have occurred to me to even consider whether a story had polyamory if it didn't focus on the relationship itself.)

It seems likely that OP is mostly looking for non-genre fiction, and I'm completely lost there.
