Hey Everyone, just joined the forums a minute ago. I've enjoyed reading some of the topics on suggested readings, but haven't been able to find the exact subject I was lookin for. For whatever reason I've had a hankering for stories about enemies that eventually become something more (ie romance). I've tried googling for this but couldn't really find anything except strictly romance novels. I'm more interested in series' with a standard story that has a love subplot attached. A couple series' that really got me into this plot device were the Timothy Zahn (Thrawn Trilogy/Duology) Star Wars books, and the Circle Trilogy by Ted Dekker. Those are kinda niche titles I know, but I was hoping someone might've read them and know of other books that employ the same trope. To be even more picky (haha), I was hoping to find them in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy genre. I'm a Classics major, so it'd be even better if the stories weren't entirely tragic like Romeo and Juliet, or the Iliad. Greek tragedies don't normally lend themselves to happy endings, so I could use a change of pace lol
