Goodreads asked Rick Barry:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Rick Barry Interesting question, and one I had never really considered. If I had to choose only one favorite couple I might say Tolkien's Aragorn and Arwen. As we read Tolkien's trilogy, we meet this couple one at a time, and we feel for them because their heart's desire is to be together even though multiple forces conspire to prevent them from becoming man and wife--until the ending, when both their dreams come true. Lord of the Rings wasn't written as a romance, but it does include a few. Aragorn and Arwen, Faramir and Eowyn, and Sam and Rosie Cotton. :)
