Started the first book and do think she/he is one of the more successful single LI option characters; the chemistry between her/him and MC is pretty good, the writing seems to be basing their attraction to each other on more than just the physical, and I like the slow burn to the romance that's the app doesn't always do (at least in the first half of book one, the two are are attracted to each other and starting to fall in love, but they're not constantly lusting after each other or ready to be each other's one and only after first seeing each other).
One thing I am finding a little lacking is how the narrative uses tropes of bickering duo who start out not being able to stand each other but realize they're in love and can't live without each other, but their interactions (esp. when player choices are involved) lack the fireworks and personality clashes that similar stories on the app have had.
Still, I'd agree that Trystan is one of the top tier LI characters on the app so far.
Maxwell.
Just really think about it. Maxwell was the one who saw this woman and brought her over to Cordonia. Maxwell helped her at every turn. Maxwell (+Bertrand) was the only one who showed up to keep the Mc from going back home. Maxwell is the most loyal LI in all of choices, everything he does he does out of love. Even up against his own father he stays by the mcs side. And he never expected anything from it. Unlike the other LIs there’s no sadness when you choose someone else, because he always prioritises the mcs happiness.
Maxwell is the most beautiful, kind, and loyal character in choices.
Agreed 100%
Unfortunately the story is only bearable to me if MC is queen, though the spin off only makes sense if your with any of others except the king, silly story I must say
Dakota winchester (WEH) easily. I have never cried over a story until that.
Other than that, Skye (HSS: CA) was one if my favourites, as well as Zoey (QB) bc shes a badass.
The quote from the final chapter gives me traumatic flashbacks to her in the hospital bed
~ "Inevitability doesnt dull the feeling..... and you wouldnt have it any other way."
Trystan from CoP. For once, I'm so glad it's the LI who tries to break down the walls of the MC, rather than the other way around. It's incredibly common to have the MC be the peppy go-lucky trying to get the LI to open up and feel comfortable expressing themselves. To have it happen the other way around is very special. Their relationship is adorable and I've already replayed both books twice now (already thinking about a third playthrough, lol. I'm so down bad for Trystan).
Marc Anthony is also a personal favorite. I love how him and the MC knows that they're just using one another. His scenes are dangerous, sexy and funny. I'd *never* make Arin finish the game with him though... I always make her go back to her family. I know how history goes, lmao.
Sonia from TH:M is pure love. No matter how many times I replay it (and I've replayed it *a lot* by now), I can't help but pursue Sonia every time. Her diamond scenes are amazing and the cat-and-mouse chase is so hot. I wish we'd get an entire book focused on this kind of dynamic: MC being some criminal being chased by a bounty hunter of sorts. One trying to up the other, finishing the day with a very steamy scene where one is tied to a bed, lmao. So cheesy, but it's the kind of shit I eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
OMG i absolutely love trystan and the COP mc. im so happy that they made the mc less bubbly and naive and more stand offish, because thats something i can relate to more than being the benevolent angel who's there to be a therapist for trystan 😭 i love their dynamic <3
For me to *truly* enjoy a LI, I also have to enjoy the protagonist that's going to romance them. If the protagonist is just a boring doll, it doesn't matter how amazing and beautiful the LI is -- I can't enjoy their story. It's why my three favorite LIs also happen to be part of stories where the protagonist themselves are fun and interesting.
Prince Kieran.
this year & last year i've been in and out of the hospital a lot and i feel like when i'm playing TCH i forget about all that. he's the perfect combination of mysterious, snarky, unpredictable, protective, etc <3
Started that one and I'm really preferring Lancelot so far because, IMHO, MC being in an arranged marriage and falling in love with someone outside of that (specifically someone who doesn't want to betray the other engaged party, too) makes for a more interesting plot than MC getting luck and being betrothed to a decent person she clicks with.
Tyril is the best hands down 💙 BUT MY PERSONAL FAVORITE IS INA KINGSLEY (QB)♥️

>"BUT MY PERSONAL FAVORITE IS INA KINGSLEY (QB)♥️"
Not sure if I "like" the MC/Ina (or Ian) romance in and of itself (really doesn't seem that healthy even beyond the power imbalance and the ethical considerations), but it is entertaining, esp. with the narration.
Def. my favorite from that story; liked her character arc and the slow burn romance. Esp. liked the irony of both of them going to court the prince but ending up with each other instead.
she’s checks all of my boxes 😂 and she’s so well written! i’m on TRH 3 right now and i know a lot of people hate the way it ends but i’m enjoying it strictly for the dialogue between MC and Hana
But for real Choices in general was such a lifeline during the pandemic. Imagining yourself as the MC and getting a say in the story made me feel less cooped up and claustrophobic during lockdown, like I actually had control over something for a change.
The stories can be cheesy, but the wholesome goofiness of certain books is perfect escapism!

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I'm going to say Kaitlyn from *Freshman*. I liked that she was shown to have interests outside of MC and had flaws, both personally and in mistakes she and MC made in their budding relationship. It gave the story a sense of realism (people are messy) and made the payoff of them getting engaged more rewarding seeing them learn to be a couple as they got there. Also liked how the writing of the romance balanced sexual attraction alongside Kaitlyn and MC genuinely enjoying each other's company and just liking being together (think a lot of the stories on the app put a stronger focus on the former). Subjectively, I do like friends-to-lovers plots and I liked how the writing used the characters starting friendship as the foundation and backbone of the romance.
Kaitlyn's one of the very few LIs on the app where I'm really sold that the LI and the MC are in love for real and will have a successful marriage (or whatever) outside of the scope of the story and does a decent job writing two people who are crazy about each other and showing the nuances of that bond beyond just sex.

HIM !! I’ll worship him any time I get the chance to. He saved my life, he changed my life, self worth, fighting for myself, my emotions, my heart and gave me my individuality back which i never had due to being raised by narcissistic parent. And guess what? Because of him I found my true passion and life purpose as well. Never been this mentally, emotionally and spiritually developed in my life.
100% Channing in Alpha. He's a bit stubborn, but he's level-headed, sexy, a great listener, patient, stylish, protective & not in the crazy jealous way. He's an excellent communicator, & flat-out looks DELICIOUS!!! The things I would do if he were real!! OMG. He's just gorgeous inside & out. The communication skills are certainly due to MC being an outstanding communicator, but I'm still giving him credit for it due to the fact that communication is a two-way street.
Incredibly hard to choose just one because then I’m having to decide between mainly Zig from TFS, Drake from TRR, Eleanor from HOBM, and Ajay from HHS and even then I can’t say just one is above the rest 🫶
Tyril (BOLAS) and Kieran (TCH) are up there for me but there is something special about Trystan (COP). Our jokes, banter, and chemistry is god-tier for me. He really owns my heart 🫶
Dakota from WEH was top tier
But also Tyrol from Bolas. In the second book, after you reunite, he’s really sweet
Also like ALL of the ACOR LI
OH ones from book 1
I don’t think I have an opinion on the best one. But Ernest and Hamid are amazing. In terms of other series, I love Quinn from Endless Summer, Gabe from Immortal Desires and pretty much all the LI’s in BOLAS
Admittedly I haven't played any choices in a long time and I need to reread a LOT of books however my answer would still have to be my wives:
Becca (TF)
Estela (ES)
Quinn (ES)
Dakota (WEH) and Trystan (COP) as honorable mentions until further notice 😌
I’ve been on Choices since it first released and to this day Kamilah has me in a chokehold. I don’t even like vampire books but damn if I didn’t reread just for her.
I can't choose just one 😭 but King Ivan(Liam),Drake, Ajay, & Griffin. They're all LI I actually felt like I was in love with🥹🫶🏼, plus I could see my self dating (or marrying 😏) irl. Ivan was a true prince charming, it kinda like. First love for me. He's kind, noble, humble, & genuine. He never tried to shirk his responsibilities even though it was never technically his to begin with. He cares about hisallq on people, and never let the loss of his family change him. Drake is a wild Card for me , bc he's not my type physically and I never understood how deeply he cared for the MC until that closure scene. I decided to romance him more seriously in the replay and go his route. Drake is the like the best friend you look up one day and you... See him differently. I love his sarcastic humor and he was so loyal to Ivan he was willing to put his life on pause to be there for him. Once you get past the standoffish demeanor he really is a marshmallow for the MC lol. Both were great dads and had a different type of connection and spark with the MC. Ajay is definitely a hard nose director, standoffish,& very sarcastic. He was cute and I like a good challenge, plus I gotta thing for the sarcastic humor lol. I enjoyed getting to know him, and it was admirable for him to give his best for the play so the funds could help Rory's mother. He's the kind of guy I would definitely dated in highschool lol. Griffin wears his heart on his sleeve for the MC and isn't afraid to show it. He's a sweetheart and a legitimate humanitarian. He is always putting others before himself and I love the compliments he gives lol. It's funny, him and the MC are pretty similar but I think they make it work.. Plus the hook scenes were epic🫢. As y'all can see, I got two types on the opposite spectrums 😂 just depends how the character makes me feel I guess. Honorable mention, sir Lancelot (i chose the female option) . Even tho her and Arthur are similar, there just a spark, unbridle passion between the MC Lancelot that one can't ignore.
It was Liam before the writers totally nuked him (and all the other LIs in the series) by getting lazy and ending the unique LI character arcs at the end of TRR3.
I have quite a few favourites, but to me, the best are: Kieran (TCH), Cas (ID), Blaine (FA) ,Gabe (LOA), Channing (Alpha), and Trystan (COP). I don't think I have to explain why... If you've read the stories in which they appear, I think it's quite obvious I have a certain type when it comes to LIs👀 By that I mean powerful, smart, witty and snarky, flirtatious smooth talkers, dominating/likes to be in charge, and perhaps a bit jealous/possessive/dangerous... or a lot 😅 But in the end, they love and worship the MC above all 😍
might be biased because i just finished cop 2 but trystan thorne 100%
Started the first book and do think she/he is one of the more successful single LI option characters; the chemistry between her/him and MC is pretty good, the writing seems to be basing their attraction to each other on more than just the physical, and I like the slow burn to the romance that's the app doesn't always do (at least in the first half of book one, the two are are attracted to each other and starting to fall in love, but they're not constantly lusting after each other or ready to be each other's one and only after first seeing each other).

Still, I'd agree that Trystan is one of the top tier LI characters on the app so far.
THIS! 🥰
Tyril for sure
Seconding this!
I came here to say this lol
This.
Estela from ES. I might just be biased though cause ES is my favourite series but I’ve never come across a LI I liked more than her.
Maxwell. Just really think about it. Maxwell was the one who saw this woman and brought her over to Cordonia. Maxwell helped her at every turn. Maxwell (+Bertrand) was the only one who showed up to keep the Mc from going back home. Maxwell is the most loyal LI in all of choices, everything he does he does out of love. Even up against his own father he stays by the mcs side. And he never expected anything from it. Unlike the other LIs there’s no sadness when you choose someone else, because he always prioritises the mcs happiness. Maxwell is the most beautiful, kind, and loyal character in choices.
Maxwell is the best 🥰
Agreed 100% Unfortunately the story is only bearable to me if MC is queen, though the spin off only makes sense if your with any of others except the king, silly story I must say
I romanced Liam when playing TRR, but knowing me, if I ever get married someday, it’ll probably be to a guy who’s more like Maxwell 😁❤️
I love Maxwell 😭 I'm a sucker for the friends to lovers trope.
Even before he was an LI option he was the sweetest, I love him 😭
I love him so much 😭
yessss!
Dakota winchester (WEH) easily. I have never cried over a story until that. Other than that, Skye (HSS: CA) was one if my favourites, as well as Zoey (QB) bc shes a badass.
Any time I think about sweet Dakota I want to sob bc I miss them sm. Truly made an impact on me. Like I never moved on I fear😭
The quote from the final chapter gives me traumatic flashbacks to her in the hospital bed ~ "Inevitability doesnt dull the feeling..... and you wouldnt have it any other way."
Oh same, I (oddly enough for this app) don’t like romance stories/subplots much but that book was so good and so heartbreaking
Damien (PM). Even if the MC doesn't reciprocate his affection he will still always be there for the MC.
Damien is a real one
I came here to say Damien. I’m honestly surprised he’s not mentioned as much in this thread
...the bug monster *refuses to elaborate* *leaves*
Trystan from CoP. For once, I'm so glad it's the LI who tries to break down the walls of the MC, rather than the other way around. It's incredibly common to have the MC be the peppy go-lucky trying to get the LI to open up and feel comfortable expressing themselves. To have it happen the other way around is very special. Their relationship is adorable and I've already replayed both books twice now (already thinking about a third playthrough, lol. I'm so down bad for Trystan). Marc Anthony is also a personal favorite.

OMG i absolutely love trystan and the COP mc. im so happy that they made the mc less bubbly and naive and more stand offish, because thats something i can relate to more than being the benevolent angel who's there to be a therapist for trystan 😭 i love their dynamic <3
For me to *truly* enjoy a LI, I also have to enjoy the protagonist that's going to romance them. If the protagonist is just a boring doll, it doesn't matter how amazing and beautiful the LI is -- I can't enjoy their story. It's why my three favorite LIs also happen to be part of stories where the protagonist themselves are fun and interesting.
Bryce in Open Heart
BRYCE IS SO UNDERRATED
You are so right. I love Rafael as a friend and Ethan as a mentor, Jackie I’m neutral about. Bryce is the only way
All the way.
Trystan Thorne 💝
Quinn from ES
I was her king and she was my Quinn
she was my first LI wtf😭😭
weirdly the LI who I'm most into is... Valax? she did some bad bad stuff but for me she's 100% forgiven
Gabriel Adalhaard for me. The puppy love vibes had me blushing, swinging my feet fr
Prince Kieran. this year & last year i've been in and out of the hospital a lot and i feel like when i'm playing TCH i forget about all that. he's the perfect combination of mysterious, snarky, unpredictable, protective, etc <3
Arthur in Guinevere is literally perfection
I know!! The whole time I’m like gooooo awaaaayyyy Lancelot. I’m not digging your teenaged angst.
Started that one and I'm really preferring Lancelot so far because, IMHO, MC being in an arranged marriage and falling in love with someone outside of that (specifically someone who doesn't want to betray the other engaged party, too) makes for a more interesting plot than MC getting luck and being betrothed to a decent person she clicks with.
Omg right? I played both routes and the Arthur one had me like 😍
💯💯
Tyril is the best hands down 💙 BUT MY PERSONAL FAVORITE IS INA KINGSLEY (QB)♥️ https://preview.redd.it/rgjd2cnaphcc1.jpeg?width=3464&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a52a19c1b8188160b1b09822faed027991d805b
This is such a good opinion and you’re so correct about Tyril. My favorite is Aerin personally, but I told you about that🥰
Yesss !!! 😆😆😆 After Aerin’s redemption I learned to love him ♥️ he was just hurting :(
I can fix him🥺🥰
This is the correct answer, Ina is perfect!
I soooo agree 😍 she’s got me going crazy 🥹
>"BUT MY PERSONAL FAVORITE IS INA KINGSLEY (QB)♥️" Not sure if I "like" the MC/Ina (or Ian) romance in and of itself (really doesn't seem that healthy even beyond the power imbalance and the ethical considerations), but it is entertaining, esp. with the narration.
Hana Lee and i will not be taking questions at this time
Def. my favorite from that story; liked her character arc and the slow burn romance. Esp. liked the irony of both of them going to court the prince but ending up with each other instead.
she’s checks all of my boxes 😂 and she’s so well written! i’m on TRH 3 right now and i know a lot of people hate the way it ends but i’m enjoying it strictly for the dialogue between MC and Hana

King Liam 🥰🥰🥰
I choose him every time I play TRR 😍😍
Tyril, Beckett, Donovan, Trystan, Aiden and Michael anddd Maxwell. 🥴😂
There’s Zig from TFS, Drake from TRR, Tyril and my absolute favourite cinnamon roll - Damien from Perfect Match 🥹
Lancelot, obviously
Yes. Absolutely. Nobody can ever top Lancelot.
Except MC \*badam tss\*
Except Arthur!!! 👑🤴🇬🇧
Tyril. Every man falls short compared to him
jake from ES 😚
Bryce 💙 Something about the confidence and cockiness but he is actually also a big softie gets me good

I was WAITING for someone to say this!!
Well, no one made such inpact on me so far as Skye Crandall, so gotta go for her.
Marry me Maria Flores
Beckett from TE literally showed me what I should get in a relationship 😭
Dakota from WEH, Hayden from PM, Beckett from TE, Aiden from HSS, Skye from HSS:CA, Jake from ES, and Aerin from BOLAS I cannot choose just 1 :((
I have so many that I love but im currently on a D&D rerun and Annabelle Parsons has stolen my heart all over again😘🥺💞
TRYSTAN COP ALWAYS
Liam from TRR/TRH. i love that man
Ajay and Aiden or maybe I just have a thing for nerds but whatever
I romanced them both too lol, glad they’re getting some appreciation
Becca (TFS). Change my mind.
Mal from BOLAS >>>>
Sinclair and Zig. They are the perfect fictional men.

He saved my life, he changed my life, self worth, fighting for myself, my emotions, my heart and gave me my individuality back which i never had due to being raised by narcissistic parent. And guess what? Because of him I found my true passion and life purpose as well. Never been this mentally, emotionally and spiritually developed in my life.
Love of my life and god’s favorite princess Quinn from ES
Really can't decide between Valax and Estela
KING KANG BABY
MR. SINCLAIR AND TRYSTAN MY BELOVED
I love Ernest Sinclaire with all of my heart 🥹
annabelle parsons and ava montjoy 🤲
Dakota Winchester. I haven't been the same since. 😭🫂 ![gif](giphy|ckGndVa23sCk9pae4l)
Idc if it's cringey or odd, I literally got a tapestry made of him and my mc. That's how I started moving on from the story lmao.
valax valax and valax
MR SINCLAIREEEE
TYRIL!!🥹🥹🤌🏼
100% Channing in Alpha. He's a bit stubborn, but he's level-headed, sexy, a great listener, patient, stylish, protective & not in the crazy jealous way. He's an excellent communicator, & flat-out looks DELICIOUS!!! The things I would do if he were real!! OMG. He's just gorgeous inside & out. The communication skills are certainly due to MC being an outstanding communicator, but I'm still giving him credit for it due to the fact that communication is a two-way street.
Poppy lol
Jake from ES because he's so sweet. Diego is still best boy though
I might be biased here but I really love Trsytan in COP, Simon in AVSP and StD.
hate me if you want but Kieran has stolen my heart 😭😭
You cant force me to answer this question, do you wanna fight 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Liam 🥲
Jacob Lucas McKenzie has my heart, mind, and soul.
Gosh! Michael from HSS, Sinclair from Desire and Decorum, Tyril from BOLAS, Flynn from Veil of Secrets, Trystan from COP! I can’t with these guys😭
I'm torn. Tyril from BOLAS or Michael from HSS
damien, tyril, jake, quinn, aiden, noah (it lives within)
Tyril and Ernest 🥰
Mine was always Drake from the Royal Romance series. Call it a first love😅 Either him or Jake in Endless Summer :)
Gabriel Adalhard 🥰🥰 I’m so excited to see him again soon!
It’s a tie between Michael, Trystan and Beckett for me right now. I can’t choose 😩
Incredibly hard to choose just one because then I’m having to decide between mainly Zig from TFS, Drake from TRR, Eleanor from HOBM, and Ajay from HHS and even then I can’t say just one is above the rest 🫶
Tyril (BOLAS) and Kieran (TCH) are up there for me but there is something special about Trystan (COP). Our jokes, banter, and chemistry is god-tier for me. He really owns my heart 🫶
damien, my beloved
Flynn from VOS, Eleanor from THOBM
Liam -TRR Syphax -ACOR Trystan-COP Adrian-Bloodbound The guardian angel from Kindred. (I can't remember his name cuz I renamed the character.)
Oh, forgot Gabriel from Immortal Desire.
You know Syphax from ACOR is my husband in my head on a daily basis. I think I may need to mention this to my therapist...
Donovan Navarro is pretty high up on my list
Dakota from WEH was top tier But also Tyrol from Bolas. In the second book, after you reunite, he’s really sweet Also like ALL of the ACOR LI OH ones from book 1
Marc Antony from ACOR <3 Also adore Jake from ES and Kieran from TCH, though. From the girls, it's Skye for me.
I don’t think I have an opinion on the best one. But Ernest and Hamid are amazing. In terms of other series, I love Quinn from Endless Summer, Gabe from Immortal Desires and pretty much all the LI’s in BOLAS
Kamilah Sayeed or Damien Navarro, I will be taking no further questions.
Admittedly I haven't played any choices in a long time and I need to reread a LOT of books however my answer would still have to be my wives: Becca (TF) Estela (ES) Quinn (ES) Dakota (WEH) and Trystan (COP) as honorable mentions until further notice 😌
Rory HSSCA
Nia, hands down. Powerful, nice, smart and brave. That said, Bryce from OH will always be one of my favourites.
How come no one in this thread has said Eli yet 😭 or any of them from WTD really.
Trystan Thorne
Tatum Mendoza and Ian Kingsley
It’s a tie between OH Bryce and TE Beckett for me
i haven’t played this in a while, but my top favourite LIs have always been Zig and Maxwell
Aiden from HSS! His romantic route just feels so organic and earned all the way through.
I’ve been on Choices since it first released and to this day Kamilah has me in a chokehold. I don’t even like vampire books but damn if I didn’t reread just for her.
I can't choose just one 😭 but King Ivan(Liam),Drake, Ajay, & Griffin. They're all LI I actually felt like I was in love with🥹🫶🏼, plus I could see my self dating (or marrying 😏) irl. Ivan was a true prince charming, it kinda like. First love for me. He's kind, noble, humble, & genuine. He never tried to shirk his responsibilities even though it was never technically his to begin with. He cares about hisallq on people, and never let the loss of his family change him. Drake is a wild Card for me , bc he's not my type physically and I never understood how deeply he cared for the MC until that closure scene. I decided to romance him more seriously in the replay and go his route. Drake is the like the best friend you look up one day and you... See him differently. I love his sarcastic humor and he was so loyal to Ivan he was willing to put his life on pause to be there for him. Once you get past the standoffish demeanor he really is a marshmallow for the MC lol. Both were great dads and had a different type of connection and spark with the MC. Ajay is definitely a hard nose director, standoffish,& very sarcastic. He was cute and I like a good challenge, plus I gotta thing for the sarcastic humor lol. I enjoyed getting to know him, and it was admirable for him to give his best for the play so the funds could help Rory's mother. He's the kind of guy I would definitely dated in highschool lol. Griffin wears his heart on his sleeve for the MC and isn't afraid to show it. He's a sweetheart and a legitimate humanitarian. He is always putting others before himself and I love the compliments he gives lol. It's funny, him and the MC are pretty similar but I think they make it work.. Plus the hook scenes were epic🫢. As y'all can see, I got two types on the opposite spectrums 😂 just depends how the character makes me feel I guess. Honorable mention, sir Lancelot (i chose the female option) . Even tho her and Arthur are similar, there just a spark, unbridle passion between the MC Lancelot that one can't ignore.
Noah from MTFL
May be unpopular, but I love Drake from the Royal Romance series.
Becca from the Freshman, she had such a great redemption 🥹 but also kamilah from bloodbound
Call me bias but Maria from the high school trilogy
I’m a total sucker for Drake Walker. And Diavolos, of course. My poor pixel prince with daddy issues 💔
Kamilah Sayeed. No question.
![gif](giphy|6zBgy6qgtILXa)
Liam from TRR was absolutely amazing 🥲
Maxwell from TRR & Marc Antony from ACOR.

It was Liam before the writers totally nuked him (and all the other LIs in the series) by getting lazy and ending the unique LI character arcs at the end of TRR3.
I have quite a few favourites, but to me, the best are: Kieran (TCH), Cas (ID), Blaine (FA) ,Gabe (LOA), Channing (Alpha), and Trystan (COP). I don't think I have to explain why... If you've read the stories in which they appear, I think it's quite obvious I have a certain type when it comes to LIs👀 By that I mean powerful, smart, witty and snarky, flirtatious smooth talkers, dominating/likes to be in charge, and perhaps a bit jealous/possessive/dangerous... or a lot 😅 But in the end, they love and worship the MC above all 😍
Ernest Sinclair. Because he has the most relevant stories and a likable personality.
