Like the guy is the more submissive one in the relationship and the girl is more dominating. It has to be young adult. It doesn’t really need to be a romance book, it just needs to have that kind of relationship.
Just as note, I know that there are no truly defined roles for males and females when it comes to romantic relationships, but when I say the roles are reversed, I mean the ones you generally see in literature. Especially since Twilight came out.
Think of it as the opposite of Edward and Bella’s relationship.
I guess in the Mortal Instruments series Clary has this relationship with Jace, you know–even though it’s much more complicated, but if you haven’t read it–definitely check it out…like now. It’s verrry good/hilarious/sexy/spooky.
Um…also try Just Listen as well, by Sarah Desen. And I think in Forever by Judy Blume, the couple has a relationship like this too.

I have read a few, like Curious Wine, but the others I find are almost always angsty in some way. I want to curl up in a chair and read a sappy lesbian novel that resembles the hundreds of selections in the heterosexual romance section. I want that feel-good lovey feeling too!
The Price of Salt (don’t remember the author.)
Tipping the Velvet (Sarah Waters)
Fingersmith (Sarah Waters)
Summer Sisters — it’s quasi lesbian (Judy Blume)

I am look for a funny type of romance book. I am more looking for a high school type setting. Something up to date, that I can relate to. A lot of drama , but not to much. I don’t like books with a lot of slang. It seems like I can’t find anymore books and I am at a total lost.
I am currenty 16 years old.
Have u tried the Twilight Series?
Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer.
They are great. Give them a try.
Also:
~Jinx
~Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac
~Pretty Much anything by Sarah Dessen
~ My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult
~ Forever by Judy Blume (Not my favorite though)

i like reading modern romance novels that include a little action. Got any suggestions?
Judy Blume’s Forever is a classic.
Kristen Tracy’s Lost It
Sarah Dessens and Meg Cabot are good as well, and not super graphic.
