What is “Forced Proximity” in a Romance Novel?

Let me explain what forced proximity in a romance book actually is. It sounds like it could bypass consent, but it’s actually about being stuck with someone! Think snowed-in like Katie and Nash in Eggnog and Candy Canes or Catherine and Zach in Mail Order Soulmate.

I explain more in the video below, shares examples of forced proximity and explain what it is and isn’t! Enjoy!
