It's not fantasy romance, and it's not strictly fantasy either, but there's a slow burn romance:

It's so slow burn that the male lead doesn't show up until chapter 4 (around episode 17 of these posts). Truth be told I didn't know there was going to be a romance when I started it. 😅 The male lead sort of wrote himself into it, but he quickly became part of the main plot.
Also, it's only a first draft and I'm only about 3/4 of the way finished with it but I hope to be done before winter ends.
ooh thank you i will check this out!
