"A Pair of Blue Eyes" is the third novel by Thomas Hardy, and the first to be published in his own name. First published in 1873, the book tells the story of a love triangle between a young woman and her two suitors from very different backgrounds. 

Elfride Swancourt, a vicar's daughter living in a remote corner of England, knows very little about the world that lies beyond when she becomes entangled with two men; The boyish architect, Stephen Smith, and the older literary man, Henry Knight. 
The former friends become rivals, and Elfride faces an agonizing choice.

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte by lostinlettersmovt
54 parts Complete
Gilbert Markham is fascinated by Helen Graham, the beautiful and enigmatic woman who has recently moved into Wildfell Hall. He is swift to befriend her and steadfastly refutes the local gossip calling her character and behaviour into question, yet he soon has cause to regret his infatuation, and grave doubts and misgivings begin to arise in his mind. It is only when Helen presents Gilbert with her diary and instructs him to read it that the shocking truth about her past life becomes clear. Anne Brontë was the daughter of Maria (born Branwell) and Patrick Brontë, a poor Irish clergyman in the Church of England. Anne lived most of her life with her family at the parish of Haworth on the Yorkshire moors. Otherwise she attended a boarding school in Mirfield between 1836 and 1837, and between 1839 and 1845 lived elsewhere working as a governess. In 1846 she published a book of poems with her sisters and later two novels, initially under the pen name Acton Bell. Her first novel, Agnes Grey, was published in 1847 with Wuthering Heights. Her second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was published in 1848. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is thought to be one of the first feminist novels. Anne died at 29, probably of pulmonary tuberculosis. After Anne's death her sister Charlotte edited Agnes Grey to fix issues with its first edition, but prevented republication of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This is one reason why Anne is not as well known as her sisters. Nonetheless both of Anne's novels are considered classics of English literature. Source:Wikipedia

Book 1 - Complete Book 2 - Ongoing If anyone in Birmingham had asked Polly Gray when the ice around Thomas Shelby's heart had started to melt, she'd say it was the day Maude Felton came to town, looking for her brothers. She'd tell them he became a human being once again, the second his eyes landed on the dark-haired girl. He smiled, and he laughed, he was kind and sweet. By no means had he become a kind human being. He was still cold, he still swore out everyone around him, cut and shot men without batting an eye. No, Thomas Shelby had not simply become a kind human being. But he was kind...to her. He treated Maude Felton with such softness, kindness, and gentleness, that Polly Gray had never seen before. He looked at the blue-eyed girl like she hung the moon and stars. And she looked at him the same way, because she knew, all she had to do was ask, and Tommy would. There was no limit to what he'd do for her. She has single-handedly fixed his heart, and he'd forever be thankful for that. She loved and cherished Tommy despite the things he did, and for that, he'd keep her in his heart forever. He'd protect her like his life depended on it. Because his life did depend on Maude. Because without Maude Felton, there'd be no Thomas Shelby.
