Martin the Warrior, for me, had the saddest romance I've read. I think what really makes it stand out in my mind since I was a child is how Martin swore to protect her, and ultimately failed, and had to live with the guilt of her death. It was also unexpected because I was a child, it was a children's novel, and I really identified with the character of Rose.
