Goodreads asked Maria Alexander:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Maria Alexander I have two answers for this, and I think it's because I have such wide tastes in literature. I love Colonel Brandon and Marianne Dashwood from Austen's SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, mostly because I'm a huge fan of the Colonel's steadfastness. His whole demeanor is very attractive, and I enjoy that Marianne eventually awakens to it. But second, I also love Pie'oh'Pah and Gentle's relationship in Clive Barker's IMAJICA. Pie is a shape-shifter and Gentle is an artist. The idea of loving someone no matter what form they take, knowing it's "them" inside is utterly beautiful.
