Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy [Pride and Prejudice].
I love Elizabeth because she's smart and strong, and doesn't let money or status influence her choices. I love that she reads books and gets mud on her dress, and yet is still the one who attracts the most eligible bachelor in town.
I love Darcy because he's fiercely loyal to the people he loves. He's also a little shy and awkward which I prefer to the typical "flawless" hero.
As a couple, I think they're perfect because she needs someone to show her that her prejudices against the rich are wrong, and he needs someone to knock his pride down a level.
P.S. My current favorite "modern" couple is Celaena & Sam [Throne of Glass series].

Hey! I just wanted to tell you I'm super excited for your book! I know it's a common question, but I was just wondering if anyone inspired the characters or if they're based on anyone, or if they're entirely your creation? Again, I'm totally in love with the entire concept of the book and cant wait to get my hands on it :)
