People all over the globe enjoy the steady unfolding of a fairly good story. While there is sometimes tension between the characters, this adds to the drama and excitement that exists in the story and in most cases, will take it from fairly good to memorable. Bibliophiles enjoy guessing what the outcome of the conflict will be, if any exists between the protagonists. Contemporary cowboy romance novels deliver all of that, keeping readers guessing until the final pages.

In essence, whether a story in this genre is written with erotic elements or vague sensual scenes, it must have increasing attraction between the heroine and hero that engages the reader. If the content does that, it will be more likely to become popular. Anyone who delves into a story in this genre generally sees attraction build mentally and emotionally.

There is nothing quite like reading a well written description about a sexy man. Authors who have done well in this area are good at putting together characteristics that readers respond to. Western stories are set against a backdrop of a difficult and rugged life. The men who are a major part of any story must be able to face their environment and overcome it. They are attractive and possess inner qualities like strength and determination.

Most people who are fans of the genre enjoy reading vivid descriptions of the landscape. This is one reason why they look for and buy books in this area. They like the virtual trip that they can take through words, seeing wide open meadows, bubbling creeks and noisy stables before them in their minds as they read.

People who buy books in this niche also enjoy reading about how other people live. The Western lifestyle may be completely different from that which they experience daily. Instead of planting herbs, they learn of people who manage farms. Other people may vicariously experience life in another set of living conditions.

Although contemporary romances are based in the West, heroines found within the pages struggle with the situations that modern women and men face. Problems faced by men and women nowadays, such as figuring out how to claim insurance after an accident, add conflict. This is why some fans gravitate towards the texts. It makes identifying with them easier than relating to a school teacher or grocer who worked and loved under different conditions.

In addition to what is expected, that is, romance in a Western setting, there are several sub genres as well. For example, some books have Christian themes. In fact, it is quite common to find both modern and historical books that have a religious theme in this area. Usually, bibliophiles can enjoy a story where both characters grow in character.

While cowboys are usually associated with Texas, fans also look forward to enjoying stories set in other places. For example, Montana and Colorado are popular settings for cowboy themed love stories as well. People who like Canada and the natural beauty of that country will find romances that take place there also.
