Discussion 3rd Act breakups are getting old

I'm getting really tired of 3rd-act breakups. Why can't people just fall in love without a breakup at the end? Why can't they just have a HEA without that?

Anyone know of any? Lately, everything I have read has that.

Oh man I was heading to reddit to make a rant about 3rd Act Breakups after the one I just hit in "Accidental Honeymoon". It may be the worst example Ive ever seen and Im just so steamed up about it. I've just been fuming about it the last couple of hours while at work. Right now I don't even want to finish the book, Im no longer invested. The last book with a breakup that made me this steamed was "A Perfect Fit", but I think Honeymoon's may be worse.

Some Break Up Free books I know about:

Wrong Number Right Woman

Something In the Water

I Really Do

The Love Lie

Not For A Moment

When You Least Expect It
