'The Price of Salt' by Patricia Highsmith is often considered a classic in lesbian literature. It has that certain allure and somewhat trashy (in a good way) romantic tension. The story follows the relationship between two women in a time when such relationships were not openly accepted, which adds to the drama and intrigue.
One popular one could be 'Ask, Tell' by E.J. Noyes. It has elements of passion and relationship drama that are common in this genre.
One popular one is 'The Hating Game'. It has a really fun dynamic between the two main characters. They start off hating each other at work but then there are these really comical and somewhat trashy moments as they start to fall in love. Another could be 'Beach Read'. It combines humor with a rather trashy - in a good way - romance plot. The characters are quirky and the situations they get into are both funny and romantic.
One example could be 'A Touch of Darkness' which combines Greek mythology with a rather steamy romance. It features Hades and Persephone in a modern - day retelling that has elements of that 'trashy' but fun romance style.
One popular 'trashy' romance novel is 'Fifty Shades of Grey'. However, it has been controversial for its portrayal of certain relationships. Another could be 'Twilight' which has a strong element of teen romance with a supernatural twist. And 'The Notebook' is also quite well - known, it tells a very emotional and somewhat melodramatic love story.
One popular 'trashy horror novel' is 'Twilight' by Stephenie Meyer. Some might consider it trashy because of its over - romanticized take on vampires and werewolves within a horror - ish setting. Another could be 'The House of Night' series by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast. It has elements of horror with vampires but also contains a lot of teen - drama which some might deem as 'trashy'.
One popular lesbian romance novel is 'Fingersmith' by Sarah Waters. It's set in Victorian England and is filled with mystery, intrigue, and a complex love story between two women. Another is 'Ash' by Malinda Lo, which is a retelling of the Cinderella story with a lesbian twist. 'The Price of Salt' by Patricia Highsmith is also well - known. It was quite revolutionary when it was first published as it depicted a lesbian relationship in a more positive light in the 1950s.
One popular lesbian romance novel is 'Carry the Ocean' by Heidi Cullinan. It beautifully portrays the relationship between two complex characters.

Stephenie Meyer is a well - known author in this genre. Her 'Twilight' series is extremely popular and is full of vampire - human romance. Another is Charlaine Harris.

I think they have a moderate level of popularity. In the world of romance novels, there is always a market for stories that play on well - known characters like Mr Darcy. But compared to mainstream best - selling romance novels that are more original in their concepts, they might not be as widely popular. They often target a specific group of readers who enjoy a particular type of romantic fantasy based on a classic character.
Many readers enjoy the simplicity of the love stories in them. They don't have to think too hard. The predictable plotlines can be comforting. Also, the regency setting is very appealing to a lot of people. It has a certain charm with its social rules and elegant lifestyles that are different from our modern world. And the idea of a dashing hero and a strong - willed heroine finding love in that setting is just very alluring to a wide audience.
