Goodreads asked Michele Wesley:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Michele Wesley I have many favorite fictional couples, each for different reasons, but the ones that are sticking in my brain at the moment are Christopher and Ashleigh from Pepper Pace’s book Beast. Without giving away too much of the main plot of the book, these two both faced their own kinds of hell but managed to pull each other through. Ashleigh was able to look past society’s standard of beauty and find beauty within Christopher “Beast” that others dared not look close enough or deep enough to find. The couple accepted each other as-is and motivated each other to grow from there. Apart the couple couldn’t find within themselves the strength and beauty that the other had so easily found. Together they made each other better, motivated each other, and did right by each other no matter what was thrown at them and believe me, a lot gets thrown at these two. Beast is a very inspiring book that I’d recommend to readers of any genre.
