To ask your favourite romantic pairings in fiction?

[Theundertaker]

I'd really like some ideas for something new to read or watch with some element of romance.

Have previously loved:
Elizabeth and Darcy
Jane and Rochester
Harriet Vane and Peter Wimsey
Robin and Strike
Linden and Holder
Mulder and Scully
Margaret Hale and Mr Thornton
Brienne of Tarth and Jaime Lannister

Please give me your favourites.

Maddie and David (Moonlighting). Loved that series would love to watch it again doesn’t seem to be available anywhere ?

Buffy and Angel are absolutely appalling together! It's such a toxic relationship, they were infatuated and not in love at all. I hate them together 😂

Josh and Donna (The West Wing)

Jim and Pam (The American Office - that casino night episode melts my heart ❤️ )

Phil and Claire Dunphy
Dany and Drogo
Buffy and Spike

Scarlet oh hara/Rhett butler

Anne and Gilbert
Niles and Daphne

Connell and Marianne

I'll throw a spanner into Spike vs Angel... Angel & Cordelia 🤪

Luke & Lorelei

Tim & Dawn

Catherine & Heathcliff (even though it's brutal)

I second Cathy and Heathcliff
Alexander and Tatiana in The Bronze Horseman

Loads of the foregoing and,

James and Alyssa (End of the F*ing World)

Claire and Jamie
Sookie and Eric (and to begin with Bill) in True Blood
Love Sheila and Terry's relationship in Detectorists, very much a side story but so sweet together.

@ChildrenOfTheQuorn what about Buffy's mum and Giles!

Anna Karenina
The Thorn Birds

Definitely Jamie and Claire.

Jesse and Céline in the ‘Before’ trilogy. I love how messy and real it all is.

Were Linden and Holder a romantic pairing? I know it was left ambiguous but I didn’t really see that. Interesting.

Lady Chatterley and Mellors

Another Joe and Jean vote here! Just perfect.
