My wife has read most of the Ilona Andrews books and she classifies them as romance while I have read most of them and classify them as fantasy. The Hidden Legacy series—to me—was definitely fantasy with semi-scientific magic while my wife feels that since Nevada and Connor found their HEA (it only took 3 books and a novella ), this makes it romance. Much the same with Kate Daniels and Curran in their series.

The main difference between these books and the standard romances—again, to me—is that the romance is not the only thread and at times not even the major thread, in the story tapestry.

Then there is the In Death series where the HEA seems to have lasted through 50+ books and shorts.
