'The Notebook' by Nicholas Sparks is also a good starting point. It's a simple yet deep love story. The way Sparks portrays the relationship between Noah and Allie, their young love, separation, and reunion is very touching. It also gives insights into the power of love over time and the sacrifices one can make for love, which makes it a smart and accessible romance novel for beginners.
For beginners, 'Ella Enchanted' is a great choice. It's a retelling of the Cinderella story with a smart twist. The main character, Ella, has a curse of obedience, and her journey through the story, including her love story, is full of lessons about self - determination and breaking free from limitations.
Another good one for beginners is 'The Princess Bride' by William Goldman. It's a funny and smart romance novel. It has all the elements of a classic adventure story along with a beautiful love story between Buttercup and Westley. The narrative style, which includes Goldman's own 'annotations', makes it a very engaging and smart read for those new to romance novels.
