As someone who adores the blend of romance and fantasy, I always recommend starting with books that have a gentle entry into the genre. 'The Night Circus' by Erin Morgenstern is a perfect choice because it weaves romance into a magical setting without overwhelming the reader. The story is about two young magicians bound in a mysterious competition, and their love story is as enchanting as the circus itself.

Another great pick is 'Uprooted' by Naomi Novik, which combines a fairy-tale feel with a slow-burn romance. The protagonist's journey from a village girl to a powerful magician is both thrilling and heartwarming. For those who enjoy a bit of humor with their romance, 'Stardust' by Neil Gaiman offers a whimsical adventure with a sweet love story at its core. These books are accessible yet rich in imagination, making them ideal for beginners.

I love introducing friends to romance and fantasy with 'Howl's Moving Castle' by Diana Wynne Jones. It's lighthearted, whimsical, and has a charming romance between Sophie and Howl. The magical elements are easy to follow, and the humor keeps it engaging. Another favorite is 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' by Sarah J. Maas, which starts as a Beauty and the Beast retelling but evolves into a deeper fantasy romance. The world-building is immersive but not too complex, perfect for newcomers.

For beginners, 'The Princess Bride' by William Goldman is a fantastic start. It's a classic tale of true love and adventure, blending humor, action, and romance seamlessly. The book is easy to read and feels like a fairy tale come to life. Another great option is 'The Bear and the Nightingale' by Katherine Arden, which mixes Russian folklore with a subtle romance. The atmospheric writing makes it a captivating read.

If you're new to romance and fantasy, I suggest starting with 'The Golem and the Jinni' by Helene Wecker. It's a unique love story between two mythical creatures set in 19th-century New York. The pacing is steady, and the characters are deeply relatable. Another wonderful choice is 'The House in the Cerulean Sea' by TJ Klune, which is heartwarming and full of magical charm. The romance is sweet and understated, perfect for those who prefer subtlety.

One of the best beginner-friendly romance and fantasy novels is 'The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue' by V.E. Schwab. It's a beautifully written story about a girl who makes a deal with the devil and the love that defies time. The fantasy elements are subtle, and the romance is poignant. Another great pick is 'The Cruel Prince' by Holly Black, which combines political intrigue with a slow-burn romance in a faerie world.

One True Love: A Love Mark Fantasy Romance
"Custom demanded that Prince Urban get a love mark tattooed to the side of his left eye as an infant, just like the rest of his people, but to him, the stupid things have only brought on the scorn of his father, the misery of his siblings, and caused his entire kingdom to go broke from fighting so many wars over the irritating ink stains. When Urban’s sister must travel to Donnelly, the kingdom within the sand, for her arranged marriage to align two realms, he goes with her. But he no sooner steps foot inside their castle than his mark starts itching like a son of a bitch, telling him his one true love is near. It just figures, though, that the woman meant for him is completely forbidden. Now he must decide if he should ignore the persistent mark, telling him she's the one, in order to avoid a possible war between kingdoms, or if he should discover whether she's worth risking everything for so they can be together. Either way, his life gets sucked into chaos with threats of beheadings, dark magic lurking, castle traitors scheming, and sword fights eminent. Who knew one little tattoo could cause so much trouble? (ONE TRUE LOVE is the author’s first attempt at a fantasy romance. Please forgive her; she might’ve read an overabundance of Cassandra Gannon, Sarah J. Maas, and Eve Langlais books, then gone off to watch too many episodes of Supernatural, Game of Thrones, and Outlander, because this was the outcome.)"

As someone who devours both novels and anime, I get super excited when romance and fantasy books get adapted into animated series. One standout is 'The Twelve Kingdoms' by Fuyumi Ono, a sweeping epic with political intrigue and slow-burn romance. The anime adaptation beautifully captures the protagonist's growth from a timid girl to a strong queen. Another gem is 'The Ancient Magus' Bride' by Kore Yamazaki, which blends Celtic folklore with a touching, unconventional love story. The anime’s visuals are breathtaking, doing justice to the manga’s ethereal art. Then there’s 'Spice and Wolf,' based on Isuna Hasekura’s novels. The chemistry between Holo the wise wolf deity and Lawrence the merchant is electric, and the economics-meets-fantasy angle is oddly addictive. For darker fantasy romance, 'Vampire Knight' by Matsuri Hino got a moody anime adaptation, though it leans more into melodrama. Lastly, 'Snow White with the Red Hair' (manga, but inspired by fairy tales) offers a sweet, grounded romance in a lush fantasy world. These adaptations prove that love and magic translate beautifully to the screen.
