I LOVE fantasy romance novels, but I can't seem to find many good ones lately without explicit sex, especially those that aren't intended strictly for a YA or religious audience. Ideally I would prefer nothing beyond first or second base(I love me some kissing, hugging, hand-holding, cuddling etc., but I'm asexual and sex grosses me out, no offense to anybody) but I can usually handle the "fade to black" approach to sex in books, where it's strongly implied that the characters sleep together but the actual act isn't described, especially if the characters wait till they're married sleep together or at least after dating for a while. I'm not a big fan of swearing either, especially the F-word, though I'm not completely rigid about it.
