Best Friend's Brother Romance Trope

The Best Friend’s Brother romance trope is a type of story where the main character falls in love with the brother of her or his best friend, who is usually off-limits, attractive, and sometimes unaware of the main character’s feelings. This trope often involves a secret or forbidden romance, as the best friend may not want their sibling and their friend to get involved or the brother may not see the main character as more than a friend. The Best Friend’s Brother romance trope can also create a lot of humor, tension, and drama, as the main character and their love interest have to deal with their attraction, their friendship, and their family.
