If there isn\u2019t a grovel, is it even a romance? This week, we\u2019re getting to the bottom of one of our favorite moments in a romance novel \u2014 the grovel.

We talk about the hows and whys of the grovel, about the reasons we love it, about the difference between a grovel and a grand gesture, and about the books that installed this particular button for us.
