love-timeline

In one of my books, the hero and heroine went from avoidance to love in … oh, (thinking here) about a month. (Day after Thanksgiving to two days before Christmas) I’ve read stories where protagonists find love in a week. Sometimes even in a day. Think of the books you’ve written. Is there variety in your romantic time frame?

My characters usually find love within a month, but no longer than three. I’ve never done weeks, much less days. If you’re a reader, what time frame do the books you buy fall in? Would your suspension of disbelief be shattered by a hero and heroine who fall in love in one day or a week? Such is the case for many women in jeopardy books.
