Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s theme is Favorite Couples in Books.

I had a hard time limiting this list to ten couples. At first, I was going to limit it to ten couples in a specific genre, but then I couldn’t decide which genre. Anyway, that would have left off some of my favorites. So, here is a list of ten favorite couples in various genres – classics, contemporary romance, historical fiction, YA sci-fi, and YA contemporary.
