MEGATHREAD: FORCED PROXIMITY

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

This megathread is going to be about: FORCED PROXIMITY

What is the FORCED PROXIMITY trope? This is when the two characters are forced to spend a lot of time together.

​

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. As they snowed into a cabin in the woods? Stuck on a boat? Locked in an elevator? On a company retreat?
• 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 FORCED PROXIMITY romance?
