I (29M) fell horribly in love with my schoolmate a million years ago. Now that my life is in shambles, AITA if I renovate her house, befriend her evil horse, and become a part of her barn's community just to spend a little time with her before she kicks me to the curb?

I meant to post this in December but alas, time got away from me:
Romance authors, if you have a 2026 release coming out (or it just came out), promo it in the form of an AITA post. And please, if you can, drop a buy link or a GR link. Let’s topple some TBR piles.

This article is an example of that thing where an allegedly very smart person thinks they’re being very clever pointing out a random bunch of trees, when in fact they are stupidly missing SEVERAL GODDAMN FORESTS
Naomi Fry connects the gay-hockey phenomenon “Heated Rivalry” to E. M. Forster’s early-20th-century novel of homosexual love, “Maurice.” www.newyorker.com/culture/crit...
The Delicious Anticipation–and, Yes, Release—of “Heated Rivalry”
The show, a sexy romance between two closeted hockey players, began on a small Canadian streaming platform, but has become a huge, unexpected hit.

This is a great article, and I'd love to believe the answer to the question it asks is "Yes!" But given how much literally everyone else has been talking about the show, this sentence lands like a ton of bricks: "current NHL players have been quiet about the show".

Hit show ‘Heated Rivalry’ became a TV phenomenon. Can it change hockey culture?
The show has taken over pop culture and is opening up conversations about a complex topic within hockey.
