What to Expect
- → Expect sharp banter and emotional tension before any softness
- → The shift from hatred to something else is usually the best scene in the book
- → Trust is earned slowly — the leads push back against their feelings for a long time
- → Often paired with forced proximity, which makes avoidance impossible
- → The payoff hits harder because of how long they fought it
