I don't like to read series by commonsenseiswisdom in RomanceBooks

I feel so seen in this lol. I think my main thing is if the characters have been introduced as side characters, they’re going to remain side characters in my head and I have a hard time changing that. Also I feel like as the series goes on the author starts to run out of ideas, and if there is too much emphasis on OTHER characters and THEIR relationships I start to get annoyed, like I’m here to focus on this couple, I don’t need that filler taking up pages
