• DWTS Dances by Trope •
TANGO x enemies to lovers
Tango is such a passionate dance that is filled with tension and such a love-hate feeling that enemies to lovers is just the perfect pair.
Book Recs:
💃 Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
💃 A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
💃 Heated Rivalry by Chelsea Curto
• DWTS Dances by Trope •
WALTZ x second chance
Waltz is flowy and beautiful and just enchanting. It carries an undercurrent of love that feels like the rediscovery of love in a second chance romance.
Book Recs:
✨ Love & Other Words by Christina Lauren
✨ Wild & Wrangled by Lyla Sage
✨ Rewind it Back by Liz Tomforde
• DWTS Dances by Trope •
SAMBA x fake dating
Samba is fun and a lot of energy and requires you to be “on”. Fake dating has that similar feeling of putting on a show and performing for those our favorite main characters are trying to convince.
Book Recs:
🪩 The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas
🪩 The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
🪩 Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez
• DWTS Dances by Trope •
RUMBA x friends to lovers
Rumba is slow and intimate and very romantic. It’s the ultimate slow burn - ie the epitome of a good friends to lovers romance.
Book Recs:
❤️ Saving 6 by Chloe Walsh
❤️ People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry
❤️ The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
• DWTS Dances by Trope •
VIENNESE WALTZ x marriage of convenience
V. Waltz is fast-paced and requires precise steps and a solid frame. It’s traditional and proper. All of these just scream marriage of convenience to us.
Book Recs:
📜 Bride by Ali Hazelwood
📜 Catch Her if You Can by Tessa Bailey
📜 Meant for Mayhem by Aimee Vance
• DWTS Dances by Trope •
FOX TROT x forced p
