I'm listening to the first book in Stephanie Meyer's Twilight series now (so please no spoilers!) and it's brought up a question I've had for a while.
In movies/books/etc. where someone supernatural falls for someone mortal, it's always clear why the mortal falls for the supernatural. But I don't usually feel satisfied with whatever explanation there is given (if any) as to why the supernatural falls for the mortal.
Does this bother you? Do you feel like you need to know, or do you just accept that as part of the genre? Is there any work that does it well?
