this might be very confusing, but I am searching for a very specific vibe.
it can be enemies to lovers/friends to lovers/ anything.
the specific dynamic I need: one of the two main characters is already with someone else and genuinely happy in that relationship at the start (not in a toxic situationship, not obviously miserable). and the other one slowly, hopelessly falls in love with them anyway, and then even the other is starting to have feelings that they try to deny.
I need slow, painfu, angsty.
bonus points if there is crime, if it has more books than one or if it’s historical romance.
