author : Mary Ellen BoydWhen I think back to the books I read as a child, they all had a romantic thread running through them. Little Women and almost every other book Louisa May Alcott wrote, especially Rose in Bloom. Even Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm was on her way to getting married at the end. The Little House series had Ma and Pa's marriage, and then of course she met Alonzo Wilder. \n\nWhat else could I write?
