No Kids Allowed

Romance reads across genres with childfree characters/storylines. This shows up in different ways. Its either a given, not a part of the plot or a conclusion. That said, it doesn't necessarily mean there aren't any child characters in the story. If you need details and I'll dig into my memory to verify. I'm open to recs, but I want to be really clear about the nature of their childfree status, so any explanation you can provide would be great.

Fantastic idea for a list! So many people these days don't want kids, yet fiction throws it down our necks constantly as the default ending for romance stories!

Some things to note:

The Kraken's Sacrifice has a pregnancy and termination.

Pleasure Crew Avery has a character that was made infertile against their will (not by the MMC but the bad guys they rescue her from)
