reading work place contemporary romance is really a high wire balancing act. like yes i want them to bang, but also if i cannot turn my brain off for HR violations i'm not having enough fun with the romance plot. sigh.

This is me with almost all contemporary romances. I’m like 😬 power dynamic, money inequity, hr violation, etc. throw them in a castle or a magic world and it’s all fun vibes.
That's why I prefer reading contemp set in US (am in UK) - employment t&c, culture & HR rules often very different so I let things slide by & don't have 'would that happen/be allowed' questions so much. It just becomes fiction-fantastical, like over-duked historicals!
