I agree completely! But - and this is what kills me and ruins it all - it has to be well-written. The flowery prose of romance stinks, but I love the themes, the way all obstacles are hacked through for love. <3 Love should always be measurable in body counts. Like someone else here said - it's the world-defying THERE-WILL-BE-BLOOD climactic awesomeness that gets me going. Any kind of attachment that provokes that kind of possessive protective kill-anything-in-the-way feeling is love, in my book, and it's exactly what I'm looking for. (Oh, Sam and Dean, here's looking at you.)
