A love story

I’m finally reading my first 'love story' novel. Every novel more or less has a love story, but when I say 'love story' novel I am talking Mills and Boon-type.
Thankfully the author is Thomas Hardy (Far from the Madding Crowd) and the love is really between the English language and the author. The characters, the scenery, the plot, merely flesh out Hardy’s passion for the word.
If you must be verbose (and believe me, as a writer of 99 words a day some paras never seem to end) then be as magically compelling and charming as Thomas Hardy.
