Sad romance books are the proofs that romantic relationships don't always have happy endings. Sometimes, the burdens, triggers, challenges, and more, are so overbearing for both parties that the romantic life should end sadly.
We often find the stories of dead significant others in many sad romance books. Even when there are "second-chance" moments like reincarnation, the already-dead can't be restored in any ways. There are also other variations of such books, such as the characters who can't force the mates to move on to other guys or girls. Unrequited love can also belong to sad romance books series, even though it's a rare case.
Some examples of sad romance books include the Titanic series and Romeo and Juliet in any forms of adaptations.

ELENA’S POV “Please father, please, I am begging you don’t do this to me”, I begged my father as he threw my clothes in a small bag. “I promise that I will be good”, I begged, as if I was being thrown out for my bad behavior when I was really a good child. I always followed my parents' rules and accepted everything that they decided for me, but this was one thing that I simply refused to accept. “Elena, you have to do this. You have to do this for your family. Don’t be selfish, think of your little sister. Would you rather she did this for you?” he asked, pointing at my twelve-year-old little sister, and I shook my head. I would never want her to suffer the same fate as mine. However, that didn't mean that I thought what was happening to me was fair. That didn't mean that I thought I deserved to be sold off to a man older than me. “ Then accept this, everyone in this family has a responsibility and this is yours” he declared, and he packed the few items that were remaining in my closet. "your mother and I have been making sacrifices for you ever since you were born, it's your turn now," he said and I couldn't believe that my own father was selling me off as p*****t for the fact that he raised me, he might not have put it like that but that was exactly how it sounded to me. “I will work to pay him off please father”, I begged once more as he threw my clothes out of the room. Was he really kicking me out of his house? This wasn't the way that I had imagined it would be for me when I finally left my home. It felt like my own father was kicking me out of this house instead of sending me to a man who was supposed to be my mate. “ Come on Elena, you have always known that one day you will come of age and you will have to move into your mate’s house,” my mother said in her calming voice, but there was nothing calming about this situation. I couldn't believe they were trying to brainwash me into believing that that man was my mate. “He is not my mate” I exclaimed.
