Historical romance is set before World War II.[2] Many historical romances include contemporary attitudes, such as heroines with far more education than was the norm in their time period.[3]
This subgenre includes a wide variety of other subgenres, including Regency romance.
The following subgenres are commonly seen within historical romance.
Viking
These books feature Vikings during the Dark Ages or Middle Ages.[4] Heroes in Viking romances are typical alpha males who are tamed by their heroines. Most heroes are described as "tall, blonde, and strikingly handsome."[5] Using the Viking culture allows novels set in these time periods to include some travel, as the Vikings were "adventurers, founding and conquering colonies all over the globe."[5] In a 1997 poll of over 200 readers of Viking romances, Johanna Lindsey's Fires of Winter was considered the best of the subgenre. The subgenre has fallen out of style, and few novels in this vein have been published since the mid-1990s.[5]

Like Fire and Powder (Violent Delights Book 18)
The War of the Roses has ended. After a thirty year power struggle, House Tudor reigns victorious, and Henry VII has crowned himself King of England by right of conquest. This is a final, very bloody revenge for the deaths of his Lancaster cousins during the War of the Roses. Now, Henry has to win the hearts of the people of England, and more importantly that of his future wife, Elizabeth of York, who is the niece of the king Henry just deposed and murdered. Henry has always been much better with numbers and account books than he has charm, much less charming women. And Elizabeth has no intention of being charmed. Both, however, know that the union is in the best interest of the people of England. Enemies to Lovers has never been quite this dramatic. Inspired by the true story of one of the most successful marriages in English history. In all technicality this comes before Son of Prophesy, but that actually explains the War of the Roses whereas this does not go through the whole thing. Trigger/ Content Warning: Bloody violence, survivor's guilt, and sexual assault are all discussed on page. A couple of characters have traumatic flashbacks to past violence. Some suggestive conversations and mildly sexual content. Some brief profanity.Concluida

Convalescent
When war erupted across Europe in 1939, sixteen year old Katherine Montague had known what she wanted to do - what she had to do. Now, five years later and a trained nurse in the British army, she finds herself thrust into the thick of that same war. But as the fight for the Western Front rages on, Katherine discovers something amid the rubble of the death and destruction around her. Something that will plunge her into a completely new war - one she'd never intended to fight, but has no intention of losing. The war for William Hughes' heart. Love might be enough to win the battle, but will it be enough to win the war? If not, her own heart just might pay the price.

Will fate make or break this pair from two different worlds? Will James keep his dominating beast in line from consuming Cassi in every way?

Aether
his is the story of how we first met. Not like all those other times we met for the first time, when I thought I knew you. It was when I knew it was you. When I knew that I never wanted to forget you. Do you remember? Our paths were endless but we chose each other. We had no idea how powerful we were. But the beauty of our love remains to this day. So I write the story of us to awaken you to me. And I whisper wishes to the stars that you come home. This is the story of how a boy fell in love with a girl. How the light fell in love with the dark.
Ragnarok Glissade
Viking fishing/settler - community on Dutch North Sea coastal Island in A.D. 2 prepare to face a new season with ever growing Roman encroachments. How are they to deal with these? And what is the longer term prospects for their small settlement? Book 1 of Nine book series covering a Viking Dynasty and interwoven families over several millennia. The first three epics cover the era from B. C. 10 or so to just before the infamous 'Viking Ascendancy' of A.D. 650 to A.D.1200- a period avoided in these tales as already well covered. Then after that three books of the Families over 1300 to 1700 and on into the last three of the nine covering the pre and current contemporary periods up to our times. There may be a deeper 'prequel' coverage as well of Vikings in the Baltic and in the Mediterranean periods before the rise of Rome. This last part would bring the total of all in the series to twelve books. Around 150-350 pages each.Concluida
Claimed by the Viking
It must have been a goddess. That he was sure of. In the middle of those dark ashes, a body was laid down, wrapped in a cape that must have been green before but which was now covered in brown because of the ashes. Her face was strikingly pale, of a rare whiteness, but it was also dirtied by the ashes, hiding her cheeks and forehead. But despite those ashes and these dark smudges, one thing was absolutely certain: she was divine. She had a beautiful face with a straight, small nose, lips that were plump even if they were dry and a bit blue from the cold. Her eyes were closed, but her lashes seemed to be long and thick, resting on her cheeks like she was sleeping peacefuly. But all of those traits were not what attracted the Jarl. What did was the streak of hair that rested on her forehead, which had leaked from her hood. Its color was so unique and uncommon for a girl from this country that Tharn remained fixated on it. It was impossible to decide if this girl was a red-head or a blond. It seemed like the gods had not been able to chose in-between those two hair colors and had to give her the tone in between those two: gold. What a waste for such a heavenly creature to be dead, Tharn thought. Well, was he sure she was dead? After kneeling down, he bent over her, placing his fingers on her throat to check if her heart was still beating and placing his cheek in front of her mouth to see if he could feel a breath against his skin. As faint as it was, a light breeze touched him and a slow beat came under his fingers. She was barely alive, but she still was. A sigh of relief escaped him without him controlling it. He had no idea why he was so glad she was alive, but he was sure of one thing : she was coming back with him, and she would be his.Concluida
