'Scandalous Desires' by Elizabeth Hoyt is also great. The hero kidnaps the heroine in a situation full of historical intrigue, and their relationship develops in an exciting way throughout the story. There are lots of twists and turns that keep you engaged.
'Kidnapped by a Pirate' by Keira Andrews is a wonderful example. It's set in a historical period where the heroine is kidnapped by a pirate (the hero). Their relationship evolves from a rather forced situation into a deep and passionate love. The historical details of pirate life and the high - seas adventures add to the allure of the romance.
Well, 'The Hating Game' can be considered in a way. Although not a traditional kidnapping, the forced working together in close quarters can be seen as a mild form of that trope, and it's a great romance. Then there's 'Twilight' where Bella is sort of 'kidnapped' by the Volturi at one point, and her relationship with Edward is a major part of the story. 'Outlander' also has elements where Claire is taken against her will initially and then a relationship develops.
Sure. 'Stolen by the Sheikh' is a popular one. It's about a woman who is kidnapped by a sheikh. The cultural differences and the power dynamic between them add a lot of spice to the romance.

Another great one could be 'The Ruthless King' where there are aspects of the mafia world and the male lead sort of kidnaps the female lead in a way that starts their intense love story. It's full of drama and steamy scenes between the characters.
The theme of discovery is also common. The kidnapped character discovers new aspects of themselves and their captor during their time together. They might find hidden strengths or explore new emotions. This mutual discovery helps in building a more complex and believable relationship. For instance, the heroine may learn that the kidnapper has a softer side beneath his tough exterior, and the kidnapper may come to realize the true value and spirit of the heroine he initially saw as just a means to achieve his goals.
There are quite a few out there. For example, 'Kidnapped into His World' is a fanfiction that plays on the kidnapping trope in a romantic way.

A 2019 historical romance novel that stands out is 'Daisy Jones & The Six'. It's set in the 1970s music scene, which is historical in a sense.
