![]() ![]() ![]() Sometimes, the simple miscommunication between friends isn’t enough to get me to root for the main pair. For heterosexual romances, enemies to lovers has always been a higher mountain to climb (in my interpretation) than friends to lovers.

Like many romance tropes, enemies-to-lovers is a stumbling block in a romance plot that has to be believable enough to keep the main couple apart, while still being something that they can overcome in order to get together at the end. Two sworn enemies who are thrown together by circumstances, or simply learning to understand each other, is always a wild ride. Even though I know the outcome because it’s in the name, enemies-to-lovers, when it’s done well, can excite and delight me like no other trope - especially LGBTQ enemies to lovers. ![]()
