Great list! I do like when friends become more than friends. I have to admit, I still like a love triangle every now and then (if it's done well). I had a little trouble with the topic so I ended up kind of modifying it. Here's my TTT

I like some love triangles, but, like you, only if they're done really well.

I also hate insta-love. I've yet to come across anyone who has it on their "likes" list!

I love when it goes from friendship to more than friends and there's usually a lot of adorable banter involved it that! Love triangles are definitely hard to get right but sometimes they work (sometimes they really don't;))

Loving this TTT! The whole friendship evolving into more than friends is one of my favorite plot devices because its usually so heart-warming. I'm also a big fan of the small town charm and sibling dynamics as secondary characters. You would probably enjoy this romantic drama I just finished called Bascomville. I was searching for new releases by male authors because it's always a breath of fresh air to explore a story of first love. Found it here on the author's website http://bascomville.myshopify.com and it rekindled my appreciation for stories of love!
