Trope I didn't realize I wanted more of: H and H stuck together for "reasons" (tied up!) like in @AuthorABouchet PROMISE OF FIRE.#AskAvonBks

Oh, I almost forgot. I love boats! Ships! Space ships! Trap the h and h out at sea (or space) and watch sparks fly! Am I alone? #AskAvonBks

The Avon editors agree they love the "heroine has to dress up like a guy" trope. Governesses & sports romances are other faves. #AskAvonBks

In contemporaries I love "reunited lovers" stories. (The next @WriterTJKline has an amazing one that gave me so many feelings!) #AskAvonBks

I'm also a sucker for a good "Heroine has to dress up like a boy" story. Something about the disguise works for me. #AskAvonBks

My governess fascination doesn't work in contemporaries. I have no problems with teacher heroines but not an "instaread" for me. #AskAvonBks

My favorite trope is one word! Governess. If you've got a governess as your heroine, chances are I will read it. #AskAvonBks
