Word of the week: Desideratum

In this week's episode the hosts discuss all the best and worst of the FTL (Friends to Lovers) Trope in writing. While this trope pairs particularly well with the found family trope discussed in the pod's last episode, it can be applied in all kinds of scenarios and can offer deeper, more meaningful relationships and inherently higher stakes than some of the other romance tropes depending on how it's executed. Join Ash and Karissa as they dive into this much-belabored trope, and offer their thoughts, feelings, and general advice on the subject.
