Isn't the romance a major thing in this book and time traveling as a sci-fi trope is more of an afterthought, providing the book with setting where the main romance plot is to be untangled? Or more simply, isn't this more of a romance/historical fiction novel than a speculative fiction (sci-fi/fantasy) book?
I'm asking because the OP has stated no romance, and by the reviews on Goodreads, Outlander is exactly that?
