We love a good rom-com as much as the next person, but there's something extra special about cozying up to a full-length romance series that packs in just as much tenderness, tear-jerking moments and titillating passion but across even more screentime.
With Valentine's Day quickly upon us, you might be on the lookout for a great love story with which to snuggle up to with your off-screen beau, and Tom's Guide is here to help, with a trio of sweet and sexy Netflix series for you to enjoy on February 14 and beyond.
'Emily in Paris'
There are few places on Earth as inherently romantic as Paris — the City of Lights makes a fittingly swoon-worthy setting for long-running Netflix romance "Emily in Paris," which just wrapped up its fifth season this past December. (Don't worry, there's more where that comes from, with season 6 officially getting the greenlight from the streamer last month.)
Across fifty episodes, you and your significant other can watch as plucky marketing maven Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) navigates not only a life-changing move to France for her dream job at luxury marketing firm Savoir — along with all of the language barriers, cultural clashes and professional challenges that come with the new role — but also romantic entanglements, notably with hunky chef Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and British heartthrob Alfie (Lucien Laviscount).

'Forever'
Even if you're in a long-solidified, years-spanning partnership, you can revisit the intoxicating rush of first love this Valentine's Day with "Forever," a Netflix series adaptation of Judy Blume's groundbreaking 1975 novel of the same name. The eight-part series focuses on two teen athletes in 2018 Los Angeles — Keisha Clark (Lovie Simone), a track star, and Justin Edwards (Michael Cooper Jr.), a basketball player — who have known each other since elementary school but whose rekindling years later turns intensely romantic.
Though imbued with universal experiences (first kisses, sexual discovery and whatnot), "Forever" also digs deep into the specificity of its characters, as Black-American youths juggling identity, ambitious and differing social backgrounds. And you can expect more of that when the series returns for its already-announced second season.
"A thoroughly modern adaptation of Judy Blume's novel that retains its insight into young love, 'Forever' is an effervescent romance that'll put an everlasting smile on viewers' faces," praises the critical consensus over on Rotten Tomatoes, where the romantic teen drama boasts an excellent 97% approval rating.

'Nobody Wants This'
If you want a "near-perfect rom-com," look no further than the cheekily titled "Nobody Wants This," which pairs together television icons Kristen Bell and Adam Brody (in a Critics' Choice Award-winning performance) as an agnostic sex-podcast host and the charming, unconventional rabbi she unexpectedly falls for.
Their odd-couple connection is a near-instant and viscerally passionate one (that first kiss), but it doesn't come without its fair share of drama, especially from their respective families. (Speaking of, "Succession" standout Justine Lupe portrays Joanne's younger sister and podcast co-host Morgan, while "Veep" great Timothy Simons is Noah's older brother Sasha.)
Over two seasons thus far — the acclaimed comedy has officially been renewed by Netflix for a third season, set to release later this year — Bell's Joanne and Brody's Noah have had to decide whether their considerable romantic feelings for each other are enough to ignore their clear religious differences.
