I need comparable title for an unwritten fantasy novel
Posted: 22 Feb 2019, 13:06
I've recently decided to start working on the draft for a novel idea I outlined years ago; however, I realized that I have been largely reading outside of the novel's genre for a while, and I would like to become familiar with newer comparable titles before I get too involved in my work. I apologize if I am being over specific, and don't necessarily expect the recommendations to 100% line up with my preferences, but the more similar, the better.
I'm looking for novels within the genre/sub-genre of romantic medieval fantasy, where the romantic element isn't overbearing or erotic. My protagonists are mid-late teens, but I'm not sure if it could be considered YA due to elements of sexual abuse and exploitation.The romance element takes place between a prince and a commoner, but I plan to focus more of the plot on darker elements involving one character's forced involvement in the assassinations being carried out by their abusive father's criminal network and the secrets they keep to hide their true identity.
