More romance with sci-fi elements rather than the other way around.

Thank you for the suggestions, I'm sure a number will be added to her growing TBR list.
Ah cool. Admittedly I only skimmed through. Whilst romance is not my only genre, it is the one I tend to get defensive about given the still prevalent snobbery attached to it, especially as those opinions tend to be based on a knowledge of zero romance books, or a cherry-picked small selection of particularly bad entries in the genre.

I hope your wife finds some new titles to get immersed in.

PS I HIGHLY recommend the Lady Astronaut Series even if the romance is not the primary plot. It goes hand in hand with the original book that the movie Hidden Figures was based on. Also, anything by TJ Klune is incredible no matter what sub-genre he writes in.
