...I just love smart girls and the reformed bad boys they learn to love. 
...and a cynic with a misunderstood bad boy.
...Then there's a cool magnet with the just plain cool...a good combo.
And no slightly rebellious girl should underestimate the appeal of a shy guy.Then there's two academics uncovering a historical
literary romance...what's not to love.
literary romance...what's not to love.
Finally, I head back to the strong-willed heroine and her bad boy with a heart of gold...
Ah, romance...I love, love, love it!What About you? Who are your favorite couples?
I loved Bianca and Wesley from THE DUFF. And POSSESSION sounds fantastic.
ReplyDeleteWow, I haven't read many of the books on your list. I've only heard amazing things about The DUFF, so that's in my TBR pile. And Wicked Lovely is on my must-read list. But now I'm adding So Yesterday and Losing Faith, too. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you put So Yesterday on your list. It's a book that gets over looked a lot. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteBianca and Wesley are definitely great :)
ReplyDeleteElizabeth and Darcy are definitely #1! I've never read Possession, but I think I need to. That cover (and your mini description) are swoon-worthy!
ReplyDeleteI think we all have an Austen thing. <3 Awesome list! :D
ReplyDeleteI love this Road Trip Wednesday! I loved SO YESTERDAY and LOSING FAITH, for exactly the reasons you said. I also just watched The Sorcerer's Apprentice (I know, a movie) and loved he science geek with the blonde. Very romantic.
ReplyDeleteOhhh I love Seth from Wicked Lovely.
ReplyDeleteNice to see a Westerfeld on here!
ReplyDeleteI really need to catch up on my reading. I've only read one book here...
ReplyDeleteI picked THE DUFF too. All your other couples were also worthy choices.
ReplyDeleteI've only read THE DUFF of those choices, but LOSING FAITH sounds particularly intriguing!
ReplyDeleteLove these choices! Also added some new ones to the list that I'd not heard of.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, P&P. S&S, too. I also loved Outlanders.
ReplyDeleteOH YES! How could I forget Bianca and Wesley?! Oh - must rewrite my post!
ReplyDeleteOk, this makes me think I'm missing out on some great couples... off to buy more books.
ReplyDelete=)
Ooo, I hadn't heard of Possession. It sounds fantastic!
ReplyDeleteFor all those interested, POSSESSION is a fantastic read.
ReplyDeleteAnd so glad there are other SO YESTERDAY fans out there. I enjoyed that book almost as much as his UGLIES series.
Seth is such a hottie!!! My fave Austen couple is Emma and Mr. Knightly. I love the BFFs-turned-lovers aspect of their relationship. :)
ReplyDeletePossession is one of my favorite books. It's so bittersweet!
