@willaful Yes, exactly! I don’t mind a breakup that’s justified by the story and the characters. But it’s not necessary! I really enjoyed Rebekah Weatherspoon’s Cowboys of California series and I had a moment in the second book when I was bracing for the unnecessary obligatory break up and then instead, the book smoothly followed the path it had set, and I felt so relieved. Still had conflict and tension, just in its own way.
