I reread the second and third books recently and the ending lines: "You love me, real or not real?" "real", pulls at ALL of my heartstrings. And of course A Walk to Remember makes me cry every time haha :)Melissa (i swim for oceans)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06840790603713851746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-37042939884610454392012-09-07T20:36:32.623-04:002012-09-07T20:36:32.623-04:00Oh yes!

A walk to remember is one of my favorite books and it never fails to make me cry and swoon at the same time :)Melissa (i swim for oceans)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06840790603713851746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-69350168623217590362012-09-07T16:56:56.741-04:002012-09-07T16:56:56.741-04:00Hmm, off the top of my head, and from something I&...Hmm, off the top of my head, and from something I've read pretty recently I'd go with Anna and Etienne St Claire. I thought their romance was believable and a perfect fit.<br /><br /><br />Next, I think of the book Water for Elephants. Don't remember who the characters were just remember they made a big splash for me, tugging at my heartstrings for sure.<br /><br /><br />Lastly, my all time FAV -- Bridges of Madison County Nicholas Sparks - oh the romance to give it all up for!!! Yeah baby!<br /><br /><br />There is one more -- The NOTEBOOK!!! Yes, that couple was awesomely swoon worthy.Melissa (i swim for oceans)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06840790603713851746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-71790245496021328552012-09-07T14:15:37.046-04:002012-09-07T14:15:37.046-04:00Hi there, couldn't find your FF but I love you...Hi there, couldn't find your FF but I love your blog.

But I agree, sometimes the subtler, or the more the relationship builds slowly, makes me melt more and the romance mean a greater deal. And I LOVE when it's all about what they do for each other.
