Why do so many books use the tired trope of the successful single girl whose love interest is a wealthy, misunderstood man, one who acts like a normal human being, but is considered extraordinary because all wealthy men are supposed to be playboys and jerks? It’s trite. Trusting my literate friends who loved this that this will get better, but I’m thoroughly irritated right now.
