no third act breakup!
do you hate unnecessary heartache from couples deciding against all reason to breakup just to get back together two pages later? you're in the right place! all these books are safe from the third act breakup trope, but that doesn't mean they don't have angst and conflict!
greatly inspired by @beanchambers on tiktok

knock knock, its a neighbours to lovers list
howdy, neighbour ๐ this type of forced proximity hits different when you physically cant escape the person next door.
apartment neighbours: sharing a wall and they can hear ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ฝ๐พ๐๐ ๐ข
house neighbours: seeing them when you walk outside or catching a sneak peak through your window ๐
time to decide if youโre ready to give your spare key to the hottie next door ๐

Single Dad Romance
Because sometimes the best love stories start after life doesnโt go as planned.

Slow and Steady
Romance books with characters and a romance that feels mature. There is no or very low drama in the romance itself. It's often a slowburn, sometimes medium burn and feels very natural. The characters are either emotionally aware, possess a decent level of emotional intelligence, or are actively trying to communicate even if it's hard. Aside from the romance there is ample time for the characters to have growth on their own.
Keywords; Mature, slow/med burn, no drama, steady, emotional security.

Friends-to-lovers starter pack <3
My absolute fav trope in the world!!! because nothing hits harder than the slow burn, the pining, the โweโve always been just friendsโ until suddenly one touch changes everything ๐ญ๐ Likeโฆ the history, the comfort, the way they already know each otherโs hearts, it just makes the romance 10x more swoony.
