This is their starting state when the romance between them seems far-fetched.This could be separately (before the meet cute) or with them together.
Act One: Set-up Intro H1 & H2 (introduce the love interests) Rapunzel finds love along the way, and I think it’s a great example to illustrate this story structure and how this structure could be incorporated into a romance or a romantic subplot. You could argue that the romance in Tangled isn’t exactly a sub-plot…but Rapunzel’s main goal isn’t to find love…it’s to escape her tower and reunite with the life she had lost. Also, I don’t write in the romance genre, but all of my books have heavy romantic subplots. Quick disclaimer: This overview is pretty true to Gwen Hayes’ beats, but I might have rephrased or grouped the beats a little differently. While writing the post: 5 Tips for Writing Romantic Subplots, my fifth tip was to utilize romantic story structure and I recommend checking out Romancing the Beat by Gwen Hayes (which also has a Scrivener template).
