Sorry that I'm a little late this week. For some reason I chose to start reorganising my bookshelf yesterday. So my bookshelves are still a wreak, I've got books piled up on random pieces of furniture and I won't be able to get things sorted out properly until I get a new big bookshelf. I know. Why did I do that?
Now that that mini-rant is out of my system, it's on to this weeks Top 5. This week I chose books from adult series. So if you're after any YA recommendations - sorry!
Meg Corbyn {aka cs759} & Simon Wolfguard
This is my favourite not-a-couple-at-the-moment couple. Meg is different ... special. Her blood a portal into the future, where a single cut on her skin can go for thousands of dollars. After escaping the facility where her kind are held, she finds herself at a Courtyard. Home of the Others. A race of shapeshifting natives who control the land - and it's resources. There she meets Simon, leader of the Courtyard, and a wolf-shifter. . . and that's all I'm telling you about this amazing series ;-D
Their budding romance is definitely forbidden, but they are so good together, very sweet and almost innocent (on Meg's side), that watching them fall in love is a joy.
If you want to follow Meg and Simon's adventures, start with Written in Red by Anne Bishop.
Stephanie Plum & Joe Morelli
I procrastinated over adding Steph & Morelli to the list, but this is one of my go-to series to read when I just want a fun bit of escapism so in the end I just had to include this on-again-off-again couple. Stephanie is a bumbling bounty hunter who has a thing for Morelli, a Trenton cop. They love, laugh, fight, break-up, lie for each other (and to each other), and are just a fun couple to read.
If you would like to catch up with Stephanie & Morelli (and Ranger) then start at the beginning with One for the Money by Janet Evanovich
. . . and don't watch the movie first!
Elena Devereaux & Raphael
Of all my top 5 couples, this is one of the most 'out there'. A mortal who falls in love with one of the most powerful beings on Earth - an Archangel. Amazingly, he returns her feelings. These two are now learning how to live, and love, in a world where Archangel's are the apex predator.
First book in the Guild Hunter series is Angels' Blood by Nalini Singh.
Diana Bishop & Matthew Clairmont
I really have come to love Diana and Matthew. They are all about the forbidden love, and breaking the rules to be with the one you love. Funny, and heartbreaking at times, their story is amazing.
If you want to read Diana and Matthew's story, start with A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness.
Lt. Eve Dallas & Roarke
I think Eve and Roarke are my favourite couple because they are just amazing characters. They both share shitty childhood's, and had built themselves a better life - until their worlds collided when Eve was investigating a homicide, and Roarke was her suspect. Fierce loyalty, compassion, love, and a myriad of other qualities are words I would use to sum up this couple ;-D
If you want to start reading this massive series read: Naked in Death by J.D. Robb
So once again my lovelies, that's it for yet another week. Hope you enjoyed my favourite book couples list. I'd love to hear what you think of them.
And if you want to find out more about this series, it was created by the lovely Lainey at GINGERREADSLAINEY and I'll include a link to the Goodreads group {here} if you would also like to participate.
I will try to start uploading videos at some point in the future. Ever time I've tried in the last few weeks, something had happened. This week it's roadworks on my street!
Until next time,
