Goodreads asked Nancy Schumann:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Nancy Schumann My favourite fictional couple isn't a couple per se. I love the dynamic between James Bond and Miss Moneypenny. While not immune to his charms she is one of the women not taken in by him. She kind of looks out for him from her desk and I think we all know that the assistant to the head of MI5 holds the real power. She can get James into trouble or out of it depending on what information she chooses to relay. Bond knows that very well indeed. He is always nice to her because he knows that being in her good books is far more important than keeping his boss sweet. He has a respect for her he doesn't always show other women. I like them together because they both know who they are and what they're good at. They each do things the other one can't and they always appreciate each other.
