Well, they usually blend two different genres seamlessly. In a good spy romance, the spy elements bring in mystery and action. There are codes to break, enemies to outwit. At the same time, the romance gives the story a heart. Take 'The Nightingale'. The sisters' experiences during the war (a form of spying in a sense) are intertwined with their love lives. The characters are complex. The spies have to be both tough and vulnerable, and the love interests need to be more than just a sidekick. They should be able to hold their own in the dangerous world of spying.
