I read a lot of trashy romance. I love it. I'm a trash goblin. Give me all the delicious trash. It is my life.
Still, I can't help but imagine how tired old romance tropes would play out in a world that was slightly more realistic. What if the protagonist wasn't perfect in every way? What if they only had a few talents? What if the love interest's flaws couldn't be fixed by their extreme wealth? Would it still be a romance? Or, would it be a tragedy?
