Goodreads asked Carma Haley Shoemaker:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Carma Haley Shoemaker My favorite fictional couple... That's not an easy question. From a literary standpoint, it would have to be Katherine and Michael from Forever by Judy Blume. This was my first book that dealt with real adult themes and it really spoke to me. I fell in love with the characters. Some of the themes of the book - sex, suicide, depression - hit very close to home.

As far as theatrical couples, as soon as I watched the movie Notting Hill, Anna Scott and William Thacker became one of my favorite couples. It's a modern spin on an old tale and the characters were perfect from their first lines.
