Tropes

Trope Rec Tuesday: Tattoo Me to Your Heart

To explain a little about what this post will be about, I’m taking the intro I did for the last one: In every romance book you read there are tropes or archetypes. You can also see them in shows, movies, plays, etc. Romantic tropes are everywhere, and they are fabulous. I adore them and I always tend to find my favorite ones in romance books so I can enjoy them more. I decided to do a sort of Trope Tuesday piece where I will be talking about many tropes and recommend you all some of my favorites that fit.

What is a trope? Urban Dictionary explains it best I think: “Despite the erroneous definitions already published here, trope on the interwebs really refers to an often overused plot device. It can also be described as another variation on the same theme. TV shows, movies, comics, games, anime’, & books are full of tropes & many rabid fan-sites now name & track said tropes with a self-explanatory title for each one.” We can name a few: accidental pregnancy, best friends to lovers, sibling’s best friend, marriage of convenience, and so many more for sure. Your favorite couples? They probably got a trope too! It’s always so nice to realize or find out your favorite romance trope and keep searching for books with the same theme.

I am still trying my hardest to decide when should I get a tattoo. Because I totally love how they look on people and I want one of my own! So whenever I read about characters in romance having them I’m like oh my god that’s so amazing and I bet they look great IMAGINE THEM AS REAL LIFE PEOPLE. *chef kiss* I absolutely adore the role they take in the novel and sometimes there is a big part they’re portraying in the story. 

I also love book covers. And we get beautiful covers that feature models with tattoos to represent the characters inside the book! Yes to this always. I’m always ready to see more and more covers like that.

Hate to Want You by Alisha Rai

The heroine in this novel has a tattoo shop! Tattoos are such a big part of this book. And you will love this one if you haven’t read it yet. 

There’s family rivalry, second chance romance, childhood friends, family and more. This book is of its kind and you won’t regret ever picking it up.

Beginner’s Guide by Six de los Reyes

Our coffee shop owner is a tattooed god! He’s cute and crushes so hard on the heroine. While the heroine is a scientist trying to design a scientific methodology that will make her find a partner for her cousin’s wedding.

Sweet On the Greek by Talia Hibbert

This delicious romance had a soccer superstar playboy and a tattooed heroine who is not ready to open up after a disastrous ending to her past relationship. But Nik claims he needs a fake relationship to protect him from misunderstandings! 

Making Up by Lucy Parker

In this romance novel, both characters have tattoos of their own. The heroine works as a circus artist while the hero is the new makeup artist in her show. They have known each other for a while and pretty much hate each other. She’s the bane of his existence! But things change when he happens to be her new roommate *ooooh*
