✔️ Slow burn
✔️ Grumpy/sunshine
✔️ Fake dating
✔️ Enemies to lovers
✔️ Forced proximity
✔️ Guy falls first

“I had a theory that we gravitate toward the stories we need in life. Whatever we are looking for- adventure, excitement, emotion, connection-we turn to stories that help us find it. Whatever questions we’re struggling with- sometimes ones so deep, we don’t even really know we’re asking them- we look for answers in stories.”
― Katherine Center, The Rom-Commers
