Love is an emotion of exultation, of extreme happiness, bordering on delirium and superficial onlookers may term it as insane, as many things of the heart are so readily termed. As far as books are concerned, the most popular of the love stories are the oft-repeated boy-girl romance sagas.
Look at the most downloaded book of love stories, written by A Bushman called, quite simply, A Love Story. The book has seen a sizeable 847 downloads until now, which tells a lot about the weight that the word ‘love’ carries.Who doesn’t like a tinge of mystery and murder to a love story?
