Why these tropes fit
Set in the small town of Westport, this friends-to-lovers slow-burn romance centers on king crab fisherman Fox Thornton, a notorious carefree flirt, and Hannah Bellinger, who crashes in his spare bedroom for a work trip. The pair initially commit to a platonic friendship to avoid risking their easy dynamic, with Hannah even asking Fox for tips to pursue a crush on a work colleague. Their forced proximity and growing chemistry blur the lines of friendship, and Fox must confront his usual no-strings-attached approach to relationships to prove he is genuinely committed to Hannah, rather than letting her remain just a friend.
