Basically in the life of either the hero or heroine there is something that has made a major impact on him/her (and/or the dog - is there a dog?)
What are some of the things that might make an impact on the heart or psyche? Rejection, heartbreak, betrayal, deception and loss.
The real reality is that in each day, we all encounter one form or another of the Three of Swords - it is just a matter of h ow much we let the storm impact our lives. Or is it because of the ultimate pain and suffering we are able to move to a place we might not have wanted to go and now we feel we have no choice but to burn our bridges and move forward?
In any good romantic fiction - drama is the key. In life, not so much.
What I mean is that a good conflict, a major loss will get the reader into the piece (or it should if done correctly).
I might like happy go lucky stories about the cat who drinks by the leaky faucet in my front yard, but I highly doubt anyone else really cares.
Time to pull another card to get the incident defined - but that is for me to know and the plot bunny to sit on - for the time being.

Is there a dog? Well, to my mind there should always be a dog...
I sometimes wonder if those people who create drama (you know the kind) spend to much time living fictional lives, y'know?
