We love Susan Mallery! discussion

This thread is for everyone to discuss their all time favorite book couple!

1. Who's your favorite book couple?
2. Why are they your favorite?
3. What is your favorite book they're in (if it's a series)?
4. If you were to cast them in a movie, who would play them?

And whatever else you want to add!

1. One of my favorite book couples (it's so hard to pick one!) is Moirin and Bao in the Naamah's Trilogy by Jacqueline Carey.

2. They're one of my favorites because they did whatever it took for them to be together. They also have fun together and are best friends.

3. I'm reading the third one still, so for now I'd have to say the second one.

4. I'm thinking Emily Blunt for Moirin


And Daniel Dae Kim for Bao

This is harder than it should be. I have favorite heroes, favorite heroines, but when I think about their other halves most times, I cringe.

But I do adore Risk Kincaid and Jacy Grayson from Kate Angell's Squeeze Play.



I adore them because of the sparks and chemistry when the two are able to be together. And that Jacy has loved him for years, just as Risk has loved her, but they never could get the timing right. (And I have a huuuuuuuuuuge thing for baseball players, which doesn't hurt ;) ) I also love that they still have time for their friends and care what happens to them.

They appear in the other Richmond Rogues books, but Squeeze Play is their story.

As for the movie version of these characters... I'm going to go a little unorthodox here and pick an actual baseball player for Risk. So I'll go with one of my personal favorites, Cliff Lee.



And for Jacy, I think Ginnifer Goodwin could pull off the slightly off-beat, but adorable coffee-shop owner.

I like the picking an actual baseball player! Plus he's gorgeous! haha. I'm going to have to check these books out!

Kelly Lynn, I read Kate Angell's . That's a great couple choice ☺!

I'm going to check Jacqueline Carey out, thanks Tegan Mae!

No problem! I hope you like her! The Naamah's trilogy is also considered the last 3 in the Kushiel's series, which has 9 books. But I read the Naamah's trilogy first and wasn't confused at all. She also has a few other series that are good! :)

1. Who's your favorite book couple? Jack and Cameron from

2. Why are they your favorite? I absolutely love their bickering and bantering. They were hilarious. The chemistry between them was intense and off-the-charts. Plus, it was a second chance romance, which I love. I just adored them!!!!!!!

Hannah, I'm going to have to check that book out! :)

Hannah, that one is still in my massive TBR pile, but I loved A Lot Like Love, so I'm sure this will be amazing.

Tegan Mae, you will NOT be disappointed! It is fabulous! Can not say that enough!

Kelly Lynn, Something About You is even better than A Lot Like Love!

Tegan, are you planning to read the other books in the Kushiel's series? lol, now I might have to move Something About You up on my TBR list too.

LOVE this thread Tegan! I'm going to post mine later☺

Hannah, I can't wait to read it!

Cindy, yes I'm definitely planning on reading them! I have two others. Just have to get around to reading all of my books in my giant mountain! haha.

Shell, thanks! I thought it would be fun to see what everyone thinks! :) Can't wait to see who you pick!

Me either Tegan! Can't wait for your opinion! lol :)

Lol, the mountain is just getting bigger with all the great recommendations that we are getting from this group.

Hannah, I'll let you know for sure!

Cindy, right? It's insane! I already had a ton of books to read, but now it's like...I have no words for it. haha. I love that picture too! :)

I have too many favorites! One that sticks out in my head is The Perfect Play by Jaci Burton .

In my head the main male character is a no brainer:

Hello Joe!


The female lead on the other hand is more difficult for me to cast. A few names come to mind:
[image error] Erica Durance - I especially love the glasses :D

Melissa George

Michelle Monaghan

and Piper Perabo

To me they all have that mother quality, but can also play up the sex appeal.

1. Who's your favorite book couple? Montana & Simon
2. Why are they your favorite? I love how Simon overcame so much in his life, met Montana, fell in love, married her.
3. What is your favorite book they're in (if it's a series)? Only Yours
4. If you were to cast them in a movie, who would play them? Reese Witherspoon & I am not sure about the man.

I put my favorite book couple on June 24 was Montana & Simon. It is now Shane & Annabelle. Summer Nights is my favorite book in the series!

Melissa that is so funny, because if you would have asked me yesterday I would have said Montana and Simon...now? It's totally Shane and Annabelle! I LOVE them! But I still love Simon and Montana of course... lol:-)

Shell- lol. Summer Nights touched my heart so badly. It was what he did. I don't want to say too much. It will be on my book review when I sit down to do it. I just did the one for Catch of the Day. I had to do that one because it is an ebook from the library! I have 3 more to do including Barefoot Season! I do not know how I got behind.
