Typically, they have a central love story. For example, in 'Pride and Prejudice', the relationship between Elizabeth and Darcy is at the heart. There are also misunderstandings. In 'The Importance of Being Earnest', the false identities lead to all sorts of confusion. And humor is key.

One classic is 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen. It's a story full of witty banter and complex relationships. The main characters, Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, start off on the wrong foot but gradually fall in love. Another is 'Emma' also by Austen. Emma Woodhouse fancies herself a matchmaker but gets into various comical situations while also finding love herself. Then there's 'The Importance of Being Earnest' by Oscar Wilde, which is filled with humorous misunderstandings and false identities in the pursuit of love.
Contemporary romantic comedy novels often deal with modern - day issues like social media, career - driven individuals, and different forms of relationships. Classic ones might focus more on traditional values and social structures.
