How are you defining "contemporary"? After the year 2000? In Gothic romances of the 1970s it was common for the heroine to be innocent, weak, defenceless, naive, and somewhat stupid, Smile Many people reading them now find it annoying, and use the acronym TSTL (Too Stupid To Live) for this type of heroine.
