I'm tired of picking up romance book after romance book and either having explicit scenes I don't want, bad writing or tragic endings. Please recommend romance books, series's are cool too (preferred, actually), but I'm just there for the fluff. For example, I really liked Percabeth in PJO.
I'd also rather not have it in a fantasy book (I know that's where the majority of best romances are, which kills me) because there tends to be quite a bit of tragedy and deaths in those. But if there are any which are generally light-hearted I'd be fine with that too.
So, book recs?

It’s fantasy, but very lighthearted and fairytale-like: Once upon a broken heart, by Stephanie Garber.
Here’s the sinopsis:
For as long as she can remember, Evangeline Fox has believed in happily ever after. Until she learns that the love of her life is about to marry another, and her dreams are shattered.
Desperate to stop the wedding, and heal her wounded heart, Evangeline strikes a deal with the charismatic, but wicked, Prince of Hearts. In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.
But after Evangeline’s first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining with an immortal is a dangerous game – and that the Prince of Hearts wants far more from her than she pledged. He has plans for Evangeline, plans that will either end in the greatest happily ever after, or the most exquisite tragedy . .
Give it a try, and if you remember, let me know if you liked it or not! (Btw, it’s a triology, and not at all as dramatic as it sounds in the sinopsis :))

I think it depends on the age group you want. Percy Jackson is technically a middle grade novel so you’re not going to get explicit scenes. Do you want adult, YA, or younger? Because that’s going to affect what books you get recommended.
