Carissa Broadbent's 'The War of Lost Hearts' trilogy (starting with 'Daughter of No Worlds', which someone mentioned) is a top-tier example. The world is split between the tyrannical Ara and the resistance in the magic-rich continent of Threll. The magic system is one of the most systematic on KU, with specific disciplines, power sources, and costs that are meticulously explored.
The world's social inequity is the main antagonist. The romance develops as the characters fight not just a person, but an entire oppressive system. The expansion of the world in books two and three, revealing ancient histories and deeper magical truths, is spectacular and never feels like an info-dump. It feels earned and vital.

Focus on authors who are also hardcore fantasy readers. You can often tell in the prose. They'll drop in worldbuilding details casually, without infodumping, because they're so comfortable in the setting. T. Kingfisher's 'Swordheart' (sometimes on KU) is a perfect example. The world feels ancient, with weird leftover gods, bizarre saints, and a legal system that's both funny and believable. The romance between a practical widow and the warrior trapped in a sword is hilarious and heartfelt, but the world around them—with its strange religions and bureaucratic complexities—is a character in itself.

A lot of these are newer series. If you want something that feels like a classic, 'The Riyria Revelations' by Michael J. Sullivan is on KU and has that reliable, Tolkien-esque worldbuilding with a clear history, distinct races with their own tensions, and a continent that feels fully mapped. It's not mind-bendingly innovative, but it's executed with such solid craftsmanship and heart. The depth is in the consistency and the way history becomes relevant to the present-day plot.

The best method is surprisingly old-school: word of mouth in niche online spaces. Discord servers dedicated to romance or specific authors are treasure troves.
People don't just recommend titles; they share their Kindle Unlimited libraries, have dedicated recommendation channels, and post immediate reactions. The conversation is dynamic. You can ask, 'Hey, looking for a KU fantasy romance with a grumpy sunshine trope and a political plot,' and get five perfect answers with links in minutes.
It's like having a team of expert librarians at your fingertips.

One more practical note: Amazon's 'Follow the Author' feature is your friend. If you find one author you love who publishes their series fully on KU, follow them. You'll get notified when they release new books, which are almost always also in KU from day one. It's how I keep up with authors like Cate C. Wells (though she's more paranormal), Ruby Dixon, and Kathryn Ann Kingsley. It turns KU from a passive library into an active subscription to your favorite storytellers.

A lot of fantasy romance uses the world as a pretty stage, but in N.K. Jemisin's 'The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms', the worldbuilding is the conflict. The social and theological structure of the world, with enslaved gods living among humans, creates the entire tension for the central, very fraught romantic dynamic. The romance feels dangerous and revolutionary because of the world's rules. It’s a political and cosmological system that forces impossible choices, making the emotional stakes incredibly high.

I can confidently say Kindle Unlimited is a goldmine for completed series. One of my absolute favorites is 'The Bargainer' series by Laura Thalassa. It's a lush, darkly romantic tale about a siren and a mysterious fae king with a past. The world-building is immersive, and the chemistry between the leads is electric. Another binge-worthy series is 'The Kingmaker Chronicles' by Amanda Bouchet, blending Greek mythology with fantasy romance in a way that's both epic and intimate.
For those who love enemies-to-lovers, 'The Bridge Kingdom' by Danielle L. Jensen is a must-read. It's packed with political intrigue, slow-burn tension, and a fierce heroine. If you prefer lighter, whimsical fantasy, 'The Witch Collector' by Charissa Weaks offers a cozy yet magical romance with a witch and a mysterious collector. Each of these series is complete, so no waiting for the next book!

Be wary of the 'not like other girls' trope disguised as strength. A truly strong heroine can have female friends, enjoy 'girly' things, and her strength doesn't have to come from rejecting femininity. I appreciate books where the heroine's femininity is part of her power, not something she sheds to be taken seriously.
