MEGATHREAD: Only One Bed

Hello r/RomanceBooks! You said you’d like more mega threads and I’m here to deliver!

This megathread is going to be about: ONLY ONE BED

What is the ONLY ONE BED trope? This is when the two characters unexpectedly have to share a bed. Usually this leads to awkward or intimate moments that ratchet up the tension.

Read a general discussion of only one bed here.

Here’s how this works.

• Drop a comment down below with your recommended book(s).
• What’s the subgenre? What’re the pairing? Is it Contemporary Romance or Historical Romance or...? MF, MM, FF...?
• Explain how it fits the trope. What is the scenario they find themselves in that reduces their options down to one bed? Is it one night? Or a whole week?
• Tell is why you love the book. “Well written” doesn’t count: let’s just assume they all are. Things like “smoking hot” and “character growth” and “amazing world building” are all acceptable.
• What other tropes does the book have? Enemies to lovers? Slow burn?
• Character archetypes! Is the MMC a mountain man? Or a single dad? Is she a doctor or a librarian?

So tell us, what’s your favorite only one bed romance?
