MEGATHREAD: REFORMED PLAYERS

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

This megathread is going to be about: REFORMED PLAYERS

Here is a link to all previous MEGATHREADS.

What is a REFORMED PLAYERS? This is when a character has a reputation as sexually active. Maybe they are a character who flouts societies rules (as in historical romances) or someone who's the town flirt (small town romances). But, at least in most romances, once the character falls in love, they stay loyal to their partner.

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 character is the reformed player? How were they defined as a player and how did this affect the other character(s) or plot?
• 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 an alpha male? Or a duke? Is she a doctor or a bluestocking?

So tell us, what’s your favorite REFORMED PLAYER?
