![]() It's a bit difficult because I like lots of romance in my novels but usually read more for the plot I guess that does speak for this maybe being more of a subplot after all. ![]() So, hoping for some of your perspectives to help with making a decision! I'm kind of stuck on this because I feel like giving the romance genre might make romance-readers disappointed because it's not as much romance as they might have expected, while the romance subplot tag might be too little to capture what is going on and non-romance readers might feel cheated because there's too much romance in their non-romance story. In regard to my story, they would still grow from literal strangers to one person feeling responsible for the other to finally getting into a relationship which kind of is growth relationship-wise but not in the sense I had this with my other stories (where they would usually grow as a couple as well). I feel like this leaves wide open what a romance subplot is or isn't. Usually for when relationships are created without any further growth or expansion of said relationship, though this isn't always the case." I looked up the description of the tag over on NU and it reads " When the story has some male-female or other similar couple relationships, but not enough to warrant a romance genre tag. In fact, they don't even meet face-to-face until the later part of the novel. In that story, the couple ends up getting together at the very end and they don't spend a significant amount of time together throughout the story. I'm not as clear on that with what I'm working on lately though. I usually write romance novels where the relationship has a significant part in the plot so I never had to worry about that. I've been pondering this question over the last few days and wanted to ask for some opinions: Where do you draw the line between adding romance as a genre and using the romance subplot tag?
