For this month, I am asking you, my readers, some of the same questions that I am asking four different authors this month. You can find last week’s question here. This week’s question I tailored a bit for you:
Of all the romance novels you have read, which one would you say is your most romantic and why?
This is a hard question because there are literally tons of romantic books that are my favorite for different reasons. There are of course the classics like Austen, though I will admit that Jane Eyre is my favorite “classic” romance novel because of that awesome dynamic between Jane and Rochester. Then, when I consider historical romance I have to say Francine Rivers’ A Voice in the Wind, because I love the slow way Marcus fell in love with Hadassah….and then would do anything for her. And when I think of contemporary, I almost always think of Becky Wade’s My Stubborn Heart because of the way he (Matt) loved her. And really, I almost hate to just name these few. Hmmm, I’m sensing a pattern and I think it has to do with how much the hero really loves the heroine and that that love is based on something far deeper than just looks. But now it’s your turn:
Of all the romance novels you have read, which one would you say is your most romantic and why?
Oh my goodness I have no idea! “Redeeming Love” by Francine Rivers was so I’ll go with that one! 🙂
If Christian fiction had a cannon, Redeeming Love would be in it. The book is a classic, absolutely amazing and stunningly written.
