Yes, he works in advertising, and it is *his job* to know how to tap into those human emotions, motivations, and aspirations. But he does it with such… finesse. The thing is: Lots of people tell stories.

The preponderance of tropes, if they’re not well handled, can give romance a predictable or formulaic feel. Why, then, are they so enduringly popular? Why do they continue to outsell so many other genres, when the story’s outcome in all cases is a given?
