Definition of "Contemporary Romance": While technically a subgenre of the Romance category, that category is much too large to not be broken down. Contemporary Romance, by definition, is set in the time in which it was written. The ebooks in this category are largely focused on the relationship and romantic love shared by two people. Typically, ebooks in this category reward characters that are good people, punish those that are bad, and end with an upbeat, positive conclusion. But, that "formula" is always being altered by excellent authors--which is why we read their ebooks, right?
Some examples of the best Contemporary Romance ebooks past and present include Nicholas Sparks (The Longest Ride), Tracy Brogan (Crazy Little Thing), Jojo Moyes (Me Before You), Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook), Lisa Kleypas (Blue-Eyed Devil).

When I took the job, I had no idea what it would bring. I didn’t expect love, sex …and terror.
These two men have a history. I know that. But where I fit into that, I don’t know.
All I know is that, for me, one of them is the love of my life … I just don’t know if he loves me—or wants to kill me.
Somebody does. Someone is watching me. It could be Aldo, or it could be Indio …
Both of them are gorgeous, sexy and rich as hell—not that money matters to me …
Both of them are pursuing me …and it should be every girl’s dream, but …
I’m in too deep. If I follow my heart, I could be living a life of love, incredible sex, and of happiness …or I could be dead within days. What do I do?
One kiss…so hot it scalded me. One year later…a second chance to give her the one thing she’s never had. I’ve known Daisy for years. She’s all curves, but I’m not supposed to notice. Because we’re just friends. I want her anyway. She wants two things—commitment and that elusive O. I can only give her one, so I make a deal. One month and more O’s than she can count.

I didn’t count on wanting more. *This is a steamy, full-length standalone sports romance with a guaranteed happily-ever-after. No cliffhangers. Nothing but steamy romance & HEA!
