Because people totally didn't like shit in the past. Nope, liking shit is absolutely a modern thing. No, really, it is. Really.
As to the topic, I read Twilight once (because I'm out of my mind) but it can't really qualify as a love story. It's more a story of one sociopath's journey toward necrophilia/bestiality.
I love the interpretation of Pac-Man where he's a just a lowly worker retrieving golf balls left all over the course by the rich masters and the ghosts are all previous workers who got conked on the head and killed by incoming golf balls in the line of duty.

Sex with Vampires or Werewolves isn't either.
Necrophilia is non-sentient dead corpses, and it'd only be bestiality if the werewolf was in their wolf shape.

Yeah, well, I find this post shallow and pedantic.
There's also that super romantic part where wolf-boy imprints on a newborn baby as his future fuck buddy. Yeah, that was a tearjerker.
Speaking of love stories, Catherine tells a pretty bizarre one...

No novels, but this webcomic about gay starfighter pilots is pretty good:
Speaking of comics, there was a translated manga series called 'Sexcapades' that I really liked. The cheesy title and marketing aside (trying to appeal to the horny, it just focused on the sex scenes), the story itself was really good: a TV writer caught in the middle of a love quadrangle between his ex-wife, girlfriend and a young starlet with a big crush on him. Some was very strange, but the relationship between the guy and his girlfriend was touching and convincing.
