I'm a guy hungry for some romance. Specifically looking for a male author, or at least a female author who understands young men. Ideally I'd like the gist of the plot to involve the young man yearning for innocent love from a sweet (Christian or Christian-esque) girl. The romance stems from them growing to know and trust each other as well as gradually explore each other's boundaries.
I also want the guy (main char) to have low self esteem starting off, but slowly gains confidence.
This is actually a pretty solid recommendation. I think OP would enjoy Lilly's route.

If you would be okay with weeb shit theirs Spice and Wolf. Not sure if it's exactly what you looking for though. The girl is a pagan wolf goddess and the guy is a moderately successful Trader. The traitor, Lawrence, agrees to take the wolf goddess, Holo, to her home far in the North. On their Journey they learn to love and trust each other. The entire series of light novels is available in English but I can't say how good the transmission is. Quite a bit of anime is a reversal of the western romance novel. I swear nearly everything in anime happens through cute girls.

I really love Tom Robbins but I think either sex could get off to his work (it's also sweet and cute and romantic usually too)

I don't want weeb shit nor do I want high brow, "thick" novels like Dostoyevsky. I sort of want an accessible novella feature the plot I mentioned before. Preferable taken place in the modern day, but I do like historical drama.

Are there any good books about big jucy thick cocks sliding cleanly into beautiful pure white assholes?
To some extend War and Peace, see Pierre's and Andrey's love

What? everyone in that story is melodramatic as fuck and the guy has no self esteem issues. There is also very little romantic interactions, its less about them growing to know and trust each other and more about unraveling the misunderstandings and questing for a way to be together

Im not sure if this is what im looking at (kind of unrelated to the topic) but few days ago I so a commercial about an upcoming movie. Its a story of 2 lovers where a woman is more of an innocent while the guy starts innocent but becomes more and more ruthless as he is swept up in the revolution and ww2. Its based on Dostoevsky's work or maybe tolstoy

White Nights is about a pathetic guy who lives alone, meets a girl that was rejected by a traveller that promised to take her with him and then at the end she meets the traveler again and goes live with him abandoning the pathetic protagonist who starts having suicidal thoughts.
At least that's what I remember from the novel.
Parker Clark
>a girl that was rejected by a traveller that promised to take her with him is this the sequel to notes from underground? Cause that would be funny.

The translation is fucking horrible, don't do it. I loved the anime and wanted more, but the translation is so badly written I couldn't finish book one.

It's sad how few actually romance focused anime are good it portraying relationships, at least in comparison to those where it isn't the focus.
