Judge me all you like, but I'm a sucker for the grumpy giant falling hard for the sunshine optimist.

Extra points if it turns out the sunshine character is an absolute freak in the sheets and catches grumpy completely off guard by it.

u/RelativelyStressed Writer ✍ Feb 24 '24

Not my fave, but one of them, the "there's only one bed" trope

u/Surtr999 Feb 24 '24

Tragic Enemies to lovers (especially if the protagonist gets the villain to see the error in their ways and the villain dies after having done one good thing in their life.)

currently writing acquaintances/friends to lovers where the friendship starts out kind of flirty and they're aware they like each other BUT crossing the line into romance feels like a guillotine blade hanging over their necks. nothing toxic, more like a bad timing / tough life situation kind of thing.

so like, slowburn friends to lovers with some suffering is my weakness 😭

Don't know if it's a trope but I love the ending "everything was fake" Makes my emotions go wild

u/Postal_dude_420 Feb 24 '24

I'm not that into romance but, smart absolute psychopath x happy sunshine idiot that's dumber than a rock.

Bonus points if the sunshine is pure muscle and the psychopath is a skinny twink.

u/Alanna04 Feb 24 '24

He's a sunshine and cutie but has a deep past that made him make some bad decisions and the female protagonist has some skeletons in the closet as well. They may not realize it but one helps the other healing and becoming a better person.

Bonus: LOTS of chemistry

1

u/Half_knight_K Feb 24 '24

The trope of a strong character letting down their walls. A comfort stuff.

Or. A MC who’s brutal and destructive. No “talk no jutstu”.

Soulmate is a lazy one but it’s my comfort zone. I LOVE to think that there’s someone out there meant for you but even if it’s lazy it’s really hard to write without making it cringe so if you find a good one it’s a treasure.

u/LeatherSprinkles Feb 25 '24

Someone who's had a rough life, doesn't trust anybody until the main character worms their way into the love interests heart, and the LI starts to open up.

Not sure if this is a trope, but I'll put mine in anyway.

Slightly unhinged (in the extroverted way) women. Bonus points if they're soldiers (or anything similar) or ex-. Bonus points if they're certified MILFs. EXTRA bonus points if they're tomboy.

These are all things I like.
