A queer rival-to-lovers sports romance. #MSWL

A high-drama, high-stakes romance. Crash Landing on Love went triple-platinum at my house. #MSWL

In sports romance, I want drama and high stakes. Give me Olympians going head-to-head for the Gold Medal, I love actual rivalry. Give me an ex-partner being chosen as the national team’s coach. Give me genderqueers setting fire to these dumb gendered sports.

This is also the one time, every four years, when I’m very interested in sports that aren’t Figure Skating, so you might as well send me those sports romances (No hokey, please. I’ve tried, it’s not for me.) #MSWL

I expect romance, even horror romance, to bring joy. That means a HEA, yes, but also if it’s past campy melodrama, it’s probably too dark for my tastes. And if one of the protagonists dies, it’s women’s fiction/upmarket, and I’m not looking to sign those. #MSWL

Not me wondering why this movie my grandma is watching is slaps like I don’t know damn well I love second-chance romance and middle-aged protagonists. Anyway, #MSWL

Since this seems to be the year of mainstreaming age-gap romance, let me just say once again that I *love* queer, but especially Sapphic age-gap romance.
