“I do recognize, to my profound disappointment, that romance novels don’t comprehensively reflect reality, but I still think there’s something to be said for feeling the magic of finding your person, knowing they’re right for you. I’m someone who needs that, who’s hardwired to hold out for that epic kind of love. I think that’s why I love romance novels the way I do, why I’ve gone this long, meeting so many fun, attractive people that I have a good time with, but never want to go further than a date or two, even though I’m actively looking for that kind of connection.”
