Today I thought I would have a little fun and share some of my favourite romance tropes that I love seeing in books. These aren’t all my favourites, because I could be here a while. But some of the ways that I love to read. And if a book has it in it, there is a higher chance that I will pick it up. Like always these are in no order. 

Siblings Best Friend/Best Friends Sibling: This is a trope that I would read in almost anything. It’s one that I have loved for a really long time. I love the tension that it creates, the secrecy is fantastic and then how it all explodes. It just leaves for great friction between the characters. 

Some of my favourites in include this trope are The Duke and I by Julia Quinn, Inked in Lies (The Fallen Men #5) by Giana Darling, On the Fence by Kasie West 

Friends To Lovers: This is another one that I have loved to read for some time. It just makes me happy when I read this trope. I especially love it, when it’s the male who has been pining for a long time. It’s a nice flip on the trope and just makes everything better. 

Some of my favourites books that include the friends to lovers trope is Him (Him #1) by Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy, Lady Midnight (The Dark Artifices #1) by Cassandra Clare and Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett.

Second Chances: This has become a recent favourite of mine. I didn’t read slowly romance for a long time, and that my reading habits have changed I do. And this has become a trope that I adore. It creates some beautiful moments between the characters. They explore forgiving but also taking a big step. This can be a mix of a second chance with the same person or even a second chance at love.

Some books that I adore with this trope are Mine to Possess (Psy-Changeling #4) by Nalini Singh, When He Was Wicked (Bridgertons #6) by Julia Quinn and Rookie Move (Brooklyn Bruisers #1) by Sarina Bowen 

Fake Dating/Marriage of Convenience: I love when this trope is used in Historial Romance the most. It just works so well here and I can’t stop reading them. They create great tension, a lot of awkward moments that lead to more and some beautiful moments between the characters. 

The books that I love that include this trope are The Duchess Deal (Girl Meets Duke #1) by Tessa Dare, My Darling Duke (Sinful Wallflowers #1) by Stacy Reid and Serpent & Dove (Serpent & Dove #1) by Shelby Mahurin
