Romance Novel Trope Ranking

Romance Your Brand: The Trope Project

I've been making some writing videos for romance authors (and anyone else who is curious) on YouTube (www.youtube.com/zoeyorkwrites), and I've had some requests for a romance trope video.

Which means, I need scientific data! Please help me sort these 25 tropes by most favourite (#1) to least favourite (#25).

If you have any questions, please email me at zoeyorkwrites@gmail.com
