Check me out, on site, boots and all!!!
As many of you know, we’re currently renovating our home, and the tradesmen I deal with are super nice. When they found out I write romance, they encouraged me to write a “tradie romance”. What do you think? A new sub-genre? Much better than “Lust in the Dust” 😉
PS – tradie = tradesman (Aussie slang)

Our landscapers started work today… It was hot… Very… Over 30 degrees… I definitely think you’re onto something 🙂
Yes Lexi, I have to agree. It’s always enjoyable watching men, work shirtless in the heat 😉
Yes, I think there would be many readers up for a Tradie Romance 🙂 I am writing a “working class hero” now, and made reference to another yummy character in a tool belt, in my last book 🙂
Sounds wonderful Savannah 🙂 I think we’re onto something. What’s not to like about a hunk who works with his hands? 😉
Ohh I love a man who knows how to use power tools or any tools for that matter . Go for it please!
Me too 😉 I know, there’s something sexy about a guy who can create things!!!
Thanks for the encouragement, I think I need to write a book with a sexy tradie 🙂
What about a tradie who is actually filling in for one of his lads, get the job done at all costs, hands on, organic multimillionaire who started it all from the tray of his ute. . . It has merit
Sounds like a fab premise Shan 🙂 That’s a book I’d like to read 😉
I don’t think I’ve read a tradie romance before so I say, go for it Joanne! And the way you write I reckon it will be a fun and incredible read.
*I’m blushing* – thanks so much Sue 🙂
Many years ago, I read a fab romance (wish I’d kept it) about a rich woman a blue-collar worker, and how they were able to overcome their issues to be together. Never read another tradie romance since….I might need to write one 😉 Thanks for the encouragement xo
You’re welcome, Joanne! And by the way you look gorgeous and those boots are awesome! xoxo
I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
Can you be more specific about the content of your article? After reading it, I still have some doubts. Hope you can help me.

I usually pick romance books based on the trope rather than the author, so seeing the different themes listed here was actually helpful. The fake marriage and fish-out-of-water stories caught my attention more than the others. One thing I always wonder with connected series is whether new readers can jump into any book without feeling lost. It sounds like these are standalones, which is nice because sometimes keeping up with a long series gets a bit overwhelming.
如果币圈工具是一本书，Cryptify Hub就是这本书的“目录页”。目录不会替你读书，但能让你快速找到想读的章节。同样，这个网址大全不会替你用工具，但能让你快速找到工具在哪。做个有自知之明的导航站，挺好。
Hallo to all romance readers discovering this fun idea. Tradie romance honestly has brilliant potential as a subgenre. Hardworking, skilled, and genuinely dependable heroes resonate deeply with readers who appreciate authenticity over fantasy. Australian settings would make these stories even more uniquely compelling.
