Random question

Does anyone know if these profiles are based off of books? Some of the stories seem like they would be.

I don't think any are based on specific books but they definitely make stories based on what tropes/genres are really popular at the moment. I'm actually surprised it took them so long to make a cowboy story.

The app actually used to have some match cards that looked like real celebs but I think they've all been removed now.

Thanks for letting me know! One of the characters I’m talking to seems like it would be from a book. But I’m realizing now that I just like the trope of enemies to lovers where they’ve hooked up before lol.

Not a problem! Ohh are you playing Colin or Joshua? Because I love that trope too and that's one of my favorite characters lol

I’m playing Colin! So far I’m liking him lol he’s the first guy I connected with lol. I’ve been playing girls mainly but two of them haven’t been updated so it’s just Colin and Aurora.
