Sweet and Clean Romances
A list of sweet and clean romances--although the amount of romance will vary from book to book and many of the stories might belong in a second genre--like fantasy or YA. For the purpose of this list, we'll define "clean" as something rated PG 13--that means some strong language and blood is acceptable, but please nothing excessive.
Score
A book’s total score is based on multiple factors, including the number of people who have voted for it and how highly those voters ranked the book.

Thank you for this!! I read her first book, Throne of Glass, loved it!! Then read the second one and was like...whoa, huh?? Found out that from book 3 on, it's NOT kid friendly, so to speak! People need to be aware because they are targeted at YA and they are not clean!

feature adult-aged characters and Explicit NC-17 content: Nudity, Drugs consumption, Rape, Physical Abuse, Abusive relationships.
They're also shelved as New adult, Adult and Erotica, but as they're marketed as YA, many people make the wrong assumption that they're Young adult.
If someone tries to add those books to this list please comment and I will erase them.
