MEGATHREAD: ONE NIGHT STANDS

Trope rec megathread

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

This megathread is going to be about: ONE NIGHT STANDS

What is the ONE NIGHT STANDS trope? This is when the characters intend to just have one night together.

Read a general discussion of one-night-stand romances 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. Do two strangers meet and have a one night stand? Or do two friends agree to cut the sexual tension "for one night only"?
  • 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 ONE NIGHT STAND romance?
