Romantic- "Take Me" by Bella Andre Funny, sexy, romantic definitely would read again.
Sad- "Where the Red Fern Grows" balled my eyes out.

I love all of Christine Feehan's books! They are romantic, but they are modern, gothy, paranormal type books. Awesome books. I would recommend any of the "Dark" series, the Leopard people series, and also the GhostWalkers series. They are so compelling - I aways find myself reading these books sooooo fast and furious and want more!
Sherilyn Kenyon books are great for the same reasons above - just a different take on vampires, shape-shifters, etc.
Maggie Shayne really has a great series, too!
Of course, Anne Rice is always good, too.
Hope this helps some!

I loved the book House of Sand and Fog by Andre Dubus II. A true tragedy, beautifully written with a very sad ending.
I would also consider Lolita by Nabokov to be a beautiful, sad, romantic book.

sad- Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton, she's an excellent writer, and has written a lot. Anything where the dog dies is sad.
sad and romantic- Memoirs of a Geisha

i love nicholas sparks!! a walk to remeber and the notebook are my favorite books of his, and they made a movie of them both!! i suggest "gone with the wind" by maggaret mitchell, even if you have seen the movie, the book is so much more fulfilling!! and you will laugh and cry until the end

Forsyte Saga. Its really romantic and really sad. It's written by John Galsworthy. It's classic. And it's all about love and broken drams and hopes and many other things
