"Sorry I'm Not Made Of Sugar & I'm Not Sweet Enough For You."

[redbrunja]

I was reading tv tropes' page on Defrosting The Ice Queen, which (unsurprisingly, as it's often a subset of ruthless girl/emotional open guy) is a trope I really enjoy. Whoever wrote that entry really nailed the ways it functions as wish fulfillment in two different directions:

More emotionally open character: "He/She doesn't hate me, she's just waiting for me to prove my love is true."

Or

Ice Queen: "A warm and caring love interest will fall in love with me and bring me fulfillment and happiness."

(I edited the above to be more gender inclusive.)

Based on this comment, I borrowed this book from the library and just read the first chapter this morning. I can't wait for the heroes to start interacting!
