Ah, love; some say it’s a feeling, others an emotion, I say, it is a choice. You choose to work out until your muscles ache with a smile saying ‘I love working out’. You choose to spend all day in a hot kitchen to sit at the table as your family devours your offering thinking ‘I love my family’. You can choose to snuggle up under your blankie with a hot (or cold) drink and fall in love with a world beyond your four walls. Whatever you choose, it gives you a feeling of peace and contentment.
It is no secret that I love a good love story. I have fallen in love with love more times than I can count (since I began my reading journey). But I still have a problem when someone asks me what my type is (favorite book wise), I cannot give a straight answer. It’s like asking me what my type is (partner wise).
This Love Week, I'm exploring five "book boyfriend" personalities based on popular genres. Which one will steal your heart?
1.
The Chivalrous/Naughty Hero (Historical Romance):
This partner exudes disciplined passion. He'll open doors, assist you from your "carriage," and rise when you enter a room. But don't mistake his chivalry for weakness. Behind that gentlemanly facade lies a fiery passion, waiting for the right moment to ignite.
2.
The Strong/Silent Protector (Werewolf Romance):
There's something undeniably alluring about raw power under control. This partner is fiercely loyal and will keep you safe from harm. With him by your side, the world might be a scary place, but you'll have nothing to fear. You're his priority, and he'd fight to the death to protect you.
3.
The Gentleman/Resilient Cowboy (Western Romance):
Slick-talking and quick-drawing, this partner will set your pulse racing. With a tip of his hat and a playful grin, he'll sweep you off your feet with his gentlemanly charm and keep you grounded with his rugged strength.
4.
The Out of this World/Grounded Enchanter (Fantasy Romance):
This partner stretches your imagination to its limits. Powerful, sneaky, bizarre, and sometimes all at once, he's a captivating blend of homey comfort and alluring mystery. He doesn't give his trust easily, but when he does, it's a treasure to behold. His loyalty is unwavering.
5.
The Brooding/Sensitive Highlander (Highlander Romance):
This partner possesses deep, surprising layers. Hardened by training, war, and hard work, his exterior hides a soft, tender heart capable of melting any resistance. His mystery draws you in, and his tenderness keeps you captivated.
Find Your Literary Love This Love Week
If you're single this Love Week, don't despair! Explore your bookshelves (or Wattpad!), find your perfect literary match, and lose yourself in a world of romance.
Wattpad Pick of the Week:
In 27 Days by HonorInTheRain (aka Alison Gervais)
This book brings together time travel, love, and a lady to the rescue. It’s a story that may make you think of that person you kinda sorta knew but not really. I do have to say, it may be a bit triggering so please proceed with caution (if you get triggered). But dive in whole hearted and enjoy a romance that needed to happen.
Book Says What?:
Choose Love by Stormie Omartian
I know what you’re thinking… An inspirational book… on love week… really… Hear me out. I know some of us have hurts and this time of the year is not a pleasant one. Before we can love anyone else, we need to love ourselves and know that we are worthy of love. This book does a brilliant job of helping with this. I hope you give it a try.
