OK, try:

The Sharing Knife series by Lois McMaster Bujold. An even mixture of romance and fantasy. Four books.

The Vorkosigan series, also by Lois McMaster Bujold. SF this time, not fantasy, and a longer, on-going series. If you want to jump in with the romance rather than the more mil-sf aspect of this series, start with the omnibus edition of the first two books, Cordelia's Honor

Not so much on the romance side, but I think you'd enjoy the Young Wizards series by Diane Duane
