8 Reasons Why Passionflix Is the Best Streaming Service for Romance Fans
What To Know
- Passionflix offers a wide variety of romance content, including movies and series specifically for romance fans.

It may seem like there’s an overwhelming amount of romance content out there, but not all of it is created equal. Everyone wants to cash in on the current mainstream surge in popularity, but romance fans know that the best content is made for us and by us. That’s what makes Passionflix, founded by Tosca Musk, the best streaming service for romance fans.
From exclusive content, exclusive perks, and unique features, there are multiple reasons that Passionflix is the superior service for romance lovers. Here are our favorite reasons for why you need Passionflix, like, yesterday.
1. Movies, series, and shorts for whatever mood
Are you in the mood to dive into a new series, or do you just need a quick romance shot before you’re ready for bed? It doesn’t matter because Passionflix has you covered. The service has both movies (usually around 90 minutes) and series — many with multiple seasons, so you can get lost in a new world. Or if you are super short on time, they also have “Passionflix Quickies” that last 10-12 minutes. There’s something for every mood and every time constraint.
2. Varying genres
Not only does Passionflix have both movies and shows, but they make sure to cover the genre gambit as well. You want cute holiday content? They’ve got it. You want dark romance? Also here. They’re even growing their romantasy selections, which include the service’s most popular title, The Black Dagger Brotherhood. The show has already been renewed for Season 2!
If there’s a specific romance trope you’re looking for, Passionflix is sure to have it in its library. From second chance to stalker romances and everything in between, it’s all here for you to peruse. You can also choose from Passionflix originals or licensed content, like the Colin Firth BBC Pride and Prejudice adaptation.
3. Unmatched book adaptations
The Passionflix specialty is romance book adaptations, and they pride themselves on staying accurate to the source material. Watching a Passionflix remake of your favorite books is like watching actors just act out what’s on the page, with quotes directly from your favorite book. The creative team at Passionflix knows that you basically want the mind-movie you conjured while reading brought to life, and they do their very best to deliver that. No one behind a Passionflix adaptation is going to claim they didn’t read the book. They’re taking care of the original source material that brought you to the title in the first place.
4. Choose your spice level
Passionflix understands that romance fans are on a spectrum of spice tolerances. We all have different tastes and preferences when it comes to how sexy we want our content, and sometimes that changes based on mood. That’s where Passionflix’s unique spice-level sorting mechanism comes in handy. Are you looking for something chaste but still swoony? Stick in the one pepper range for a happy ending and a finale kiss. When you’re ready to turn up the heat, the five pepper section is waiting for you. Passionflix is also a premium streaming service, so they can match the likes of HBO and Starz when it comes to love scenes. Make sure to hydrate before clicking on one of those spicy titles because you’ll need it.
5. Watch your new favorite actors in everything
Passionflix follows the Hallmark model of keeping people they love working with in the family. That means actors will show up in multiple projects across the service. So if you really like an actor in one series, search them, and you’re likely to find more movies and content they’re also in, so your hyperfixation can continue. There’s nothing more annoying than finding a new fave and then discovering the rest of their work is spread across streaming services you probably don’t have. Passionflix makes it easy to watch someone you enjoy in similar content to what made you fall in love in the first place. Just pop their name into the search bar and see what other Passionflix content they have for you to dive into.
6. Premium membership with premium perks
Every streaming service has tiers, but Passionflix is going above and beyond with its premium membership. Every tier comes with commercial-free content, and you can enjoy the service for as little as $6.99 per month, and your subscription can be canceled at any time. An annual subscription will run you $69.99, which gives you two months free. The real perk comes with the “Passionflix Signature Membership,” which gives you a one-year subscription, 15 percent off at the Passionflix store…and invites to set visits and premieres. Um, what? If you’re already in the Atlanta area (where Passionflix is based) or can get there easily, this may be the biggest steal for die-hard fans who want to meet their favorite stars and see how their favorite Passionflix content is made.
7. Browse around before you choose your tier
Passionflix lets you look at their library and even watch a few select titles for free before you commit to a subscription plan. You can make an account, which only requires an email, and then check out the service before handing over any payment information to make sure this is an investment you want to make. The first seasons of Driven (a racecar drama) and The Secret Life of Amy Bensen are available to check out, along with the first movie in Passionflix’s Gabriel’s Inferno film series. Each of those packs a pretty heavy spice punch, but you can also see what’s available in their tamer categories before making a decision to buy in.
8. Behind-the-scenes content
Passionflix knows that romance fans are intense about their favorite titles. Just watching a movie or a show over and over isn’t enough. We want to know everything! And they provide behind-the-scenes featurettes of the service’s most popular titles. That means candid content with your favorite stars and finding out how your favorite scenes were brought to life. It’s a great look behind the curtain for romance fans who are gobbling up everything about a noteworthy new title.
