I do not read books as often as I watch movies, but I am willing to create a habit of reading by taking a suggestion for a book from this community, and I want to start from this genre.

However I am quite picky in this matter. I cannot stand romance involving breakups, betrayal, love triangle or anything of such sorts. All I am looking for a simple story where only the couple is the protagonist, if you understand what I mean. I do not wish for any other character act as a rival in their relationship. Minor inconveniences or tensions could still be tolerated but I wish for the couple to have a satisfying ending as they were destined to by spending time with each other or being involved in circumstances that reveal similarities between them.

I would be more inclined towards stories with settings during the present times or having the characters hate each other at first, but these are optional.

The Ripped Bodice is a brick and mortar bookshop in Brooklyn NYC. Never visited it myself, but they advertise specializing in romance novels of all sorts.

Hope that helps.
