A lot of people take issue with the word “clean” when describing romance without sex on the page. I get it. Sex isn’t dirty. However, there are not a lot of great options for labels we can use to portray what genre we’re selling. “Sweet” has been used in the past, but many steamy romance authors are using “sweet” now to describe their light-hearted steamy romances. It can be confusing. So, we are using the word “clean” on this website. Let me try to define what this means for our books.
A clean romance is more than simply taking all the sex scenes out of a book. A clean romance focuses more on the emotional part of a relationship than the physical. You won’t see a lot of lust or sexual innuendo in a clean romance. The focus will always be on the emotional aspects of the relationship. This doesn’t mean there isn’t any desire or longing in a clean romance. You’ll see both of those in many clean romances. You just won’t see that turn into lust or sex on the page.
