Oh, my. tvtropes has many things to say about romance. Starting at https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RomanceNovel Apparently the single requirement to be a romance is a "Happily Ever After" (you know, and they lived happily ever after...). Which allows many versions to slip in. Hum, there's the Strictly Formula stories? Harlequin and others, where the story follows the tried and true plot line? If you have time (and a strong interest) https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RomanceNovelTropes has plenty of suggestions! Wow! I think I'll stop here. So we're going to mix up this romance with a hollow metropolis setting? Fun and games... He lived on the West Side, she lived on the East Side. But when they met downtown, where no one lived, it was destiny...Write!
