Opposites attract! That is one of the major rules in Romancelandia and a lot of readers absolutely adore couples with a sizable height difference. Think of a giant of a man going toe to toe with a smaller woman, or a tall hero romancing a much slighter man in m/m romance books.
We have selected the best romance books in which one partner is significantly taller than the other, featuring scenes such as 'bending his neck', 'picking her up to kiss her', or her 'standing on her toes to reach him'.
The 'tall hero / small heroine' or 'tall hero / small hero' trope can be used to emphasize power imbalances between the couple and is often associated with dominant and submissive main characters. However, there are many books on the list in which the height difference has no real effect on the relationship dynamic, apart from creating a bit of extra fun.
The following romance books are set in the present day and in a realistic setting (no magic, shapeshifters, urban fantasy or aliens involved), featuring male/female relationships with a serious height gap.

Paris, 1889. The Exposition Universelle is underway, drawing merchants from every corner of the globe. Luz Alana Heith-Benzan set sail from Santo Domingo armed with three hundred casks of rum, her two best friends and one simple rule: under no circumstances is she to fall in love.
The City of Light is where Luz Alana will expand Caña Brava, the rum business her family built over three generations. It’s a mission that’s taken on new urgency after her father’s untimely death and the news that her trust fund won’t be released until she marries. But buyers and shippers alike are rude and dismissive; they can’t imagine doing business with a woman…never mind a woman of color.
From her first tempestuous meeting with James Evanston Sinclair, Earl of Darnick, Luz Alana is conflicted. Why is this man—this titled Scottish man—so determined to help her? And why, honestly, is he so infuriatingly charming?
