Definitely 'Pride and Prejudice'. It's a masterpiece. The relationship between Elizabeth and Darcy is so well - developed. You can really feel the social constraints of the time and how their love overcomes them. Another is 'North and South' by Elizabeth Gaskell. It's about the clash between the industrial north and the genteel south in England and the love that blossoms between Margaret Hale and Mr. Thornton. It gives a great insight into the historical and social changes of that era.

I think 'Romeo and Juliet' by Shakespeare should be on the list. Although it's a tragedy, it's also a great love story set in historical Verona. Their love defies the feud between their families. 'The Time Traveler's Wife' by Audrey Niffenegger is also very good. It has a unique take on time - travel and love. The main characters' relationship spans different times in history, and it shows how love can endure through all kinds of challenges. 'The Duchess' by Amanda Foreman is a great historical romance novel that tells the story of Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire, and the complex relationships in her life.

The Wedding Planner's Romance

Marriage first. Then, love. Yun Shu is a wedding planner, who was busy planning others' weddings while having a nonexistent romantic life. Meanwhile, her grandmother was urging her to be in a relationship and get married fast. “Grandma, choosing a boyfriend is not as easy as choosing a cabbage.” This was how Yun Shu had answered when her grandma urged her to find a boyfriend again. Who would have thought that her grandmother would walk over to the handsome man at the vegetable aisle and introduce her as her granddaughter and that, she was looking for a boyfriend? Just like Yun Shu, Qi Zheng’s family was also urging him to get married fast. The next time he see her again, it was at a blind dating event. Qi Zheng had mistakenly thought that Yun Shu was a participant in this event as well. He walked over and directly asked, “Do you want to come with me and get a marriage certificate? Your grandmother would stop urging you to get a boyfriend, and I can stop my family from doing the same.” Yun Shu looked at the agreement in front of her and decided to sign it. The man looked at her signature and smiled.
