As a reader, a second chance at love trope will get me every time. How about you? What's your favorite trope?

Great post, Jean! The excellent book I finished reading yesterday was a Friends to Lovers, Mistaken Identity story, with a twist on Workplace Romance as well. I purchased your boxed set. Kudos to all the authors who contributed to this important project.
ReplyDeleteJean, what a great list of tropes. I have to admit I have a hard time picking just one. As I read your list, I thought, Oh, I like that one. Then I'd see the next one, and think, I like that one too. So many tropes so little time. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jean. This is a great list of tropes, and best wishes on your new release.
