What I fear as a writer

As a writer, one of my biggest fears is that readers will skim over things I've written.
Let me explain. I am about to stop buying the books of a writer whose books I have read for quite some time. Why? Because, in her latest book, I found myself skimming over about a quarter of it.
This writer's mysteries are well written and intriguing. But more and more, you have to wade through what I find irritating and excessive narrative that has little to do with the plotline.
In her books, her two main characters are in love. They are demonstrative. In the books, she goes so far as to call them 'shmaltzy' and has other characters rolling their eyes at their mushiness. The two characters profess their deep and abiding love for each other, ad nauseum, every few chapters. And not briefly either - they go on for paragraphs, even pages.
By the time you get to book 2 in a series, their obsessive love for each other is established. By book 13? I don't want to read about it any more. Like the other characters in the books, I don't want to watch. I definitely don't want to waste my time on it. It's repetitive in the extreme.
Which is a shame, because the stories are quite good. I enjoy them.
And I'm not going to read them any longer. I'm unfollowing her on platforms, so I won't be tempted.
So, dear reader, my fear is that I might do this to you, and lose you in the process. I am going to do my best to not be repetitive, or to otherwise make you want to skip entire sections of my writing.
That is a promise.
