Seven Favorite Book Couples
Feb. 12th, 2019 07:29 am
Valentine's Day is right around the corner! What a great time to share with you some of my favorite couples that I have met through the pages of books. Maybe you'll want to meet them, too! 😊
Mellie & Tom from "With Every Letter" by Sarah Sundin
"With Every Letter" is a "You've Got Mail" story set during WWII. Mellie is a flight nurse and Tom is an engineer. Both have reasons for wanting to remain anonymous, even as their hearts grow closer and closer through their letters.
Rowena & Brice from "The Reluctant Duchess" by Roseanna M. White
Horrible circumstances force Rowena's father to trick Brice into marrying his daughter, yet Brice feels that God may be calling him to love this wounded Scottish lass. Much faith and trust are required as danger follows them into their new relationship.
Leigh & Seb from "One Enchanted Noel" by Melissa Tagg
A single mom daring to dream of bigger things in her future, and a cowboy who can't quite measure up to his past. I love all the couples in the Enchanted collection, but there's something special about these two!
Julia & Henry from "When You Look At Me" by Pepper Basham
I only read this book recently, but I fell deeply in love with this couple! Their sweet attraction, their gentleness, their introversion, the very difficult things each of them had faced. There's a depth of beauty that spoke to me.
Betsy & Joel from "For The Record" by Regina Jennings
She needs a hero for the story she's writing, and borrowing traits from the new deputy seems harmless. He'll never know, right? But he has more reasons than she could guess for keeping his location a secret. Lots of misunderstanding between these two!
Allie & Jay from "Flabbergasted" by Ray Blackston
He's never known faith like he sees in this South American missionary who is home on furlough. His questions will lead him to Jesus and on many adventures that he never saw coming.
Margaret Hale & John Thornton from "North and South" by Elizabeth Gaskell
I couldn't make this list without at least one classic literature reference! I love the strength and determination of both of these characters. Their passion, loyalty, and heart for others, though first seemingly at odds, make them a truly wonderful match once they learn to appreciate the other. The BBC miniseries is one of my favorite movies of all time!
