About Western Romance
Western Romance, sometimes called Cowboy Romance, centers around romantic stories in a western setting. Typically, a Western Romance is set on the American Frontier. Though these books are a subgenre of Historical Romance, set in times of Westward Expansion, these stories can also be set during contemporary times with elements of the rural American West. Though the genre itself began in the 1800s, it gained mass market popularity in the 1950s with publishers like Mill and Boon and Harlequin focusing on Western tropes and styles. While Western Fiction that is not strictly Romance tends to be centered around male protagonists and action-filled plots, the Western Romance typically offers dual perspective from both the main character and their love interest, and character-driven stories where action is secondary to the romantic development. These types of Romances often focus on traditional gender roles, while still maintaining the Romance genre standards of women being character-led and integral to the plot. Popular tropes include: Marriage of Convenience, Beauty and the Beast, Second Chance, and Scandal. Western Romance usually features a cowboy, ranch hand, or otherwise hardworking and rugged man and his heroine. Popular Western Romance authors include: Linda Lael Miller, Jodi Thomas, and Maggie Osborne.
