Romance Readers - Fake Dating

Fake dating. Real Feels. What happens when you have to pretend to date your friend, only to discover that you have real feeling for them? Especially when the 'only one bed' trope shows up. Special shout out to fake dating's cousin, the marriage of convenience, which is fake dating, kicked up a notch. 

For this meeting, read a Fake Dating Romance (or 2!) and come prepared to discuss how it fits within the Romance Genre! Be prepared to pine as they suffer through the agony of mutually feeling that their love is unrequited. 

According to the Romance Writers of America, there are two basic elements of every romance novel: a central love story and an emotionally satisfying and optimistic ending [RWA]. Beyond that, anything goes, from the setting to the tropes. Romance novels can be set in Victorian times, or modern times. They can be sweet, or extremely spicy. 

This group reads a book of their choice, based on the suggested theme/trope/subgenre. This allows our members to read what they enjoy, while also branching outside their comfort zone, just a little.
