Slow Burn
Book Trope
Once the fire ignites between two characters, there’s no snuffing it out. But some fires take their time building up to the moment of combustion. The sexual tension between love interests simmers until it catches a spark that leads to a blaze of passion. These are love stories where the wait for romance is long, but the ache is so worth it. Just sit back and enjoy the heat.
