No discrimination, bigotry, or microaggressions towards marginalized groups Non HEA and non HFN romances are still welcome to be discussed here but you MUST warn users when doing so, unless the OP specifically mentioned that they are ok with non-HEA romance.
People come to this sub expecting that all books or series mentioned here end in HEA, unless informed otherwise. The definition of a romance novel is a love story that ends in a happily ever after (HEA) or happy for now (HFN).
