Goodreads asked Lisa Aldridge:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Lisa Aldridge I love this question! My initial reaction is Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. One of the reasons that I like this relationship so much is that both characters grow as individuals and overcome shortcomings that allow them to view the other more objectively. I love Elizabeth’s resolve to marry for love and the irony of her falling in love with the wealthy Mr. Darcy.
But wait! Ron and Hermione are another great couple from J K Rowling’s Harry Potter series. We know they’re in love long before they do. We watch them grow up and see how their differences perfectly complement their companionship. Ron is passionate and a little hasty, while Hermione is logical and methodical. Ron knows things intuitively and Hermione studiously memorizes facts. They make a great team and learn to appreciate one another and eventually admit that opposites attract.
