Whilst there aren’t any spoilers regarding any plots, you may find that simply identifying the characters and their romantic involvements, may give away ‘twists’ in the stories and thus spoil your enjoyment.
Therefore I STRONGLY recommend that you don’t check out the characters in books you haven’t read yet.
The purpose of the list is to refresh your memory of characters whose stories you’ve already read.
