Who should Harry marry
whitelaughter:
If marriage has a real, ritual effect in the Dresdenverse, then being 'one flesh' should allow his wife access to Dresden's healing abilities.
I'd been curious as to whether that was going to end up healing Murph.
So much for that.
None of the other ladies really need this ability.

There are three cheesy easy ways to bring them together. Next book will have different dimensions, maybe one has Carlos & Molly Ramirez spinning Cold Case as an improbable yard to their dubious grandchildren. Towards the end of the series there will be time travel, maybe Harry goes back and Molly was never the Winter Lady. Maybe even SURPRISE, it was Nemesis all along. After all, he's already taken two other Fae Ladies. Pretty much any slipshod poser could write any of the above situations. I feel that JB is the caliber of author who can finesse Molly and Carlos into circumstances where they work out what happened, build trust, and have that type of relationship people dream of.

Which was one of the possible futures Harry saw in his soul gaze with her in Proven Guilty, middle aged, happy, surrounded by her children.

Yeah, problem with that is she's not interested in him. Never was. And she is on the WC behead on site list. And with Carlos now full WC lackey, not trusting Harry or Molly, I don't see Jim writing a love story between them when he blew up that ship hard before. He could have had Wild Bill go and be her sidekick for CC. Instead he had Carlos. Plant distrust in his mind that blossoms and we get BG ending. There is no going back for Harry or Molly. There is no fixing what has happened. There can't be. So there can't be another team up for trust building between Molly and Carlos. That ship, once again, sank before it sailed.

I don't disagree, however Molly and Carlos did show some attraction to one another and "flirted" a little in White Night. But apparently that seed landed on some very jagged rocks and met with disaster.

Love the nautical theme but never say never, especially in literature.
