Top 10 Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s topic is a Valentine’s Day themed freebie so I chose my top 10 character pairings with undeniable romantic tension! I know what y’all want, so let’s just get to it!
- Blue and Gansey (The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefavter): These. Two. They are pretty much the definition of romantic tension. They haven’t even kissed yet and still they sizzle when they’re on the page together.
- Kestrel and Arin (The Winner’s Trilogy by Marie Rutkoski): These two run a very close second. Who doesn’t love their angsty, politically doomed, forbidden romance?
- Warner and Juliette (The Shatter Me Trilogy by Tahereh Mafi): Admit it: everyone loves a good bad boy-good girl duo and these two got it going on!
- Thorne and Cress (The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer): We’ve waited for what feels to be forever for these two to just admit they’re crazy for each other!
- Ben and Fallon (November 9 by Colleen Hoover): Colleen Hoover always does good with couples, but man these two are hot! The whole one day thing makes the tension even better!
- Rowan and Aelin (The Throne of Glass Series by Sarah J. Maas): HOLD YOUR HORSES, INTERWEBS! Notice I said Aelin. That’s because I don’t think Rowan and Celaena made a good pair. But Rowan and Aelin? They’re good.
- Will and Tessa (The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare): Who doesn’t love this angsty couple? Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.
- Karou and Akiva (The Daughter of Smoke and Bone Trilogy by Laini Taylor): Who doesn’t love an age old love story which transcends time and physical bodies?
- Perry and Aria (The Under the Never Sky Trilogy by Veronica Rossi): You can’t help but love this bickering, bantering pair! One amazing hate to love relationship!
- Feyre and Tamlin (A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas): Tale as old as time….
I love Thorne and Cress. I want a spin off series all about them 🙂

Warner and Juliette have so much UST it’s intense! Same with Rowan and Aelin, you almost want them to get it on already so the UST can disperse

This is a great list! I’m really having Bluesy feels atm, but mostly because The Raven King is coming out in April and I’m freaking out!
