My Favorite Book Couple with Christine Bell

Christine Bell is one half of the happiest couple in the world. She and her handsome hubby currently reside in Pennsylvania with a four-pack of teenage boys and their two dogs, Gimli and Pug. If she gets time off from her duties as maid, chef, chauffeur, or therapist, she can be found reading just about anything she can get her hands on, from Young Adult novels to books on poker theory. She doesn’t like root beer, clowns or bugs (except ladybugs, on account of their cute outfits), but lurrves chocolate, going to the movies, the New York Giants and playing Texas Hold ‘Em. Writing is her passion, but if she had to pick another occupation, she would be a pirate…or, like, a ninja maybe. She loves writing fun and adventure-filled romance stories, but also hopes to one day publish something her dad can read without wanting to dig his eyes out with rusty spoons.

Very excited to be here and talk about my favorite book couple with you guys! I took WAYYYY too long to decide what two names I was going to put up here >.< I have SO many. After much deliberation, I went with Zsadist and Bella from JR Ward’s Lover Awakened (Black Dagger Brotherhood, book #3). I love the series anyway, but watching this beast rescues his beauty and vice versa was positively enthralling to me. The biggest thing was the way I connected to each of the characters. Ward has this way of getting deep into a character’s point of view so that the reader can feel their pain and there was a LOT of pain in this one. I’m usually a sucker for funny, light reads (think Jill Shalvis and Shannon Stacey) but this couple had me from page one.

So what do you think, readers? You think Bella and Zsadist sound compelling? Who are your favorite book couples?

In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there’s a deadly war raging between vampires and their slayers. And there exists a secret band of brothers like no other - six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Of these, Zsadist is the most terrifying member of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.

A former blood slave, the vampire Zsadist still bears the scars from a past filled with suffering and humiliation. Renowned for his unquenchable fury and sinister deeds, he is a savage feared by humans and vampires alike. Anger is his only companion, and terror is his only passion—until he rescues a beautiful aristocrat from the evil Lessening Society.

Bella is instantly entranced by the seething power Zsadist possesses. But even as their desire for one another begins to overtake them both, Zsadist’s thirst for vengeance against Bella’s tormentors drives him to the brink of madness. Now, Bella must help her lover overcome the wounds of his tortured past, and find a future with her…
