* Note--All best romance books have an average of 5 stars from Amazon when we post them here.  This average could change as customers post more reviews.

**  Also, while all romance novels posted have earned a 5 star review from a respected reviewer, some weeks we are unable to find the greatest romance novels which also average 5 stars on Amazon. In this case, we will post best romance books which have earned 4 1/2 stars on Amazon, with a minimum of 20 total reviews. We have discovered, after running this website for several years, that it is very difficult for top romance novels today to average five stars on Amazon. The 4 1/2 star compromise helps to factor out the occasional dissenting reviewer, whose opinion radically diverges from the majority, and yet ends up reducing the best romance novels overall Amazon ranking.
