Goodreads asked Nancy Gray:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Nancy Gray I have a lot of favorite fictional couples, so it's hard to narrow it down, but I'll try.

My current pick is Asuna and Kirito from the Sword Art Online manga and anime. They compliment each other well. Asuna is a powerful character with an indomitable attitude and Kirito, while being shy is has a will to overcome all odds against him.

This second pick might be a spoiler for those reading the Clockwork Angel series, though I doubt it. Reading the first book, I could tell there was going to be a love triangle, but if you don't want to know who the second love interest is, don't read any further.

My second pick is Jim Carstairs and Tessa from the Clockwork Angel series. Even though there is a love triangle and I don't know how it is going to end yet, Jim is such a likable character it's almost impossible for me to wish him anything but the best of luck, especially since he doesn't have much time to make the most of his life. Whatever the outcome, I like them as a couple better than I like Will and Tessa together.

My third pick is probably Rosiland and Jason from The Fire Rose by Mercedes Lackey. What can I say, I like a good beauty and the beast story.

As I read more and more books, of course, the pick will probably change, but I think these two are the favorites for now.
