Not one of those goes-into-GREAT-detail ones, but a light-hearted-yet-deep one. Preferably one that makes you think.

Jude Deveraux wrote one called Knight In Shining Armour. That was such a fun light hearted romance.
Also Janet Daily, Barbara Taylor Bradford and Barbara Delinsky

Is there any such thing? Romance is one of the most complicated things in our lives....if there is a light read in romance it probably isn't a literary winner. Anyway....
Don't be ashamed to look into Mills & Boon either......they've really come back into the reading world (one of my friends is an author of several M&Bs and knows the business is in a bit of a boom....so that's my source for the claim :^). ) And the range is now huge....no longer just steamy novels, you can get some really 'light' ones, filled with comedy. Go with the category "sweet" in M&B is my best guess.
And some good ones in M&B (although you have to look around) can be very thought provoking......brilliant authors just trying to make a break into the field.
Hope you find one!

'Where or When' by Anita Shreve. Two people reunite with each other. They were each other's first love. Touching, deep, but not light-hearted.
The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella. A high priced, city lawyer runs into career problems and turns into an "undomestic goddess." Comedic, deep, and light-hearted!
Happy reading! Great to read in the summer and let your mind float far, far away from where one is.

Rebecca Paisley-A basket of wishes.
Its about a fairy Splendour who is ordered to marry a human( a duke).The poor hero is confused by the woman who will shrink if not kissed regularly,drinks apricot face lotion.On top of that he is harassed by splendour's sister who even turns him into a snail.His cousin Emil thinks that Splendour is exactly what the doctor ordered for the staid ,boring Jordan.
Mary Balogh-Lady with a black umbrella(Funny romance).The heroine is always rescuing the hero-whether he wants to be rescued or not.
Lynsay Sands-A bride promises her father that she'll obey her husband 'always'.I mean 'always'.The poor groom didn't know what he was going to get when he was coarced to marry the king's daughter.
Anne Gracie-The perfect rake.The heroine just wants to save her sisters from their abusive grand father.However one lie led to another and another.The hero was perfectly willing to go along with the charades.
Another good series is the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The books provide an alternate take on vampires.People who are unjustly murdered call upon Artemis(Greek goddess) and she grants them a day to avenge themselves.After that they are recruited to her army to fight against evil.This series is romance based.Best of the series are 'Dance with the devil' and 'Seize the night'.
Werehunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The books in the series are Nightplay,Dragonswan,Stroke of midnight,Unleash the night.These are romance novels.You can read not only about were-wolves but also about were-dragons,were-panthers,wer... and were-tigers.The heros are handsome,powerful and with a mysterious past.Interesting reading.The best of the lot is Night play.
For a really funny vampire romance books read Argeneau book series by Lynsay Sands.The first one of the lot is 'Single white vampire'.Recluse vampire and novelist Lucern Argeneau finds his lair being invaded by his determined editor Kate.He has to hide the fact that he is a vampire from Kate,partake his daily blood quota and manage his family.His interfering all-vampire family doesn’t make things easier.Infact his mom thinks that Kate is perfectly suitable for him.

Bet Me by Jennifer Crusie...one of my recent faves. Min Dobbs, a 30-something accountant gets dumped by her boyfriend who bets heartbreaker Cal that he can't get her into bed (something the boyfriend couldn't do in 3 months)...of course hilarity ensues when Min overhears this and decides to use the bet to her advantage... really a great book, something I'd suggest to anyone. I've read it several times. It's laugh-out-loud funny and has its deep moments, too.
