I am almost finished reading the fourth book and I am a little sad that it is ending. Can anyone recommend any really good books with the same kind of strong love story( doesn't need to be vampires or any other creature) just a good book that has the same easy read, make you fall in love with the characters feel???
That is a good question. I am excited to hear what others have to think.
Have you read the Sookie Stackhouse books? I love the Twilight Series so it is hard for me to recommend something that compares to it but the Sookie books might get you through for a while?
I don't know of any series so to speak, but most Nicholas Sparks books do that to me. He wrote the Notebook, Walk to Remember, and Message in a Bottle. Great love stories and connections.

I came across Judith Bronte's love stories. Its not something like Mill's and Boon. Its available online as well. I loved all the stories, specially Abbigail's Journey.
Why are you sad with the ending of the 4th book? I think it ended well so just curious.
I can't think of any others ~ I don't usually read romance.
I was sad when I finished the Twilight series, only because I wanted more. Not sure if the OP has read Midnight Sun? It is a partially finished draft posted on SM's website. It is Twilight through Edwards eyes.
I just finished Breaking Dawn last night. I too was sad that its over and there are no more books to read but I wasn't sad with the actual ending of the story. I was a little concerned because people had such strong opinions on how Stephanie Meyer ended it but I thought it was very fitting. Nessie threw me for a loop but after I adjusted to her I liked the path SM took.
This isn't my quote, but I thought it so hilarious that I have to spread it around.
[disclaimer: read the books, sorta liked them. needy, mopey Bella got on my nerves big time
but I liked the interesting physiology of the vampires]

"Girl meets sparkly vampire, fall in sparkly love, have sparkly abstinence because sex outside of marriage isn't sparkly. Have sparkly angst, sparkly stalking, sparkly obsessive controlling behavior for three books, then have sparkly marriage followed by sparkly sex which results in sparkly (and gory) pregnancy. Ex-boyfriend falls in love with sparkly baby.
The end.
Moral: ethically, morally and legally objectionable actions are ok if they sparkle."
You might try "The Bronze Horseman" and "Tatjana and Alexander" by Paullina Simons. The first one was just great but the second part wasn't as good as I expected.
I was also sad that the Twilight series had to end. Like most others here not with the end of the book itself but I wish I could read more about the two of them.
I also recommend "The Time Traveller's Wife", finished it in 3 days.
