Here are all the results with descriptions

Lolita
Like Nabokov's heroine, you are a seductive temptress. But unlike the unfortunate Lolita, you are aware of the power you have over men and are not afraid to use it. You are practical and pragmatic when it comes to love, seeing it as a means to an end rather than the end in itself. Any romance novel based on your life would emphasize the heroine more than romance and show your rise to power as you prove you are smart as well as beautiful.

Catherine
Emily Bronte created the iconic romantic heroine in 'Wuthering Heights,' Catherine Earnshaw, who is caught in a love triangle between the boring but societally approved Edgar and her dashing, dark foster-brother, Heathcliff. Who can blame her for defying society? Like Catherine, you are willful and refuse to follow the rules where love is concerned. Because true love doesn't come in a neat package, does it?

Holly
An American cultural icon, Holly Golightly is the famous heroine of 'Breakfast at Tiffany's.' Although she is from the country, she has remade herself as a New York society girl on the hunt for a wealthy husband. Like Holly, you have dreams of climbing high on the society ladder, although luckily, these days, a lady isn't reliant on a man to raise her status!

Juliet
Oh Romeo, Romeo! No heroine has ever captured the angst of teenage infatuation like Juliet Capulet. Tragic though her story may be, she inspires the ultimate act of romantic sacrifice from her lover, and the brief passion they share eclipses a thousand long-lived loves in its intensity. Like the star-crossed heroine, you are a romantic idealist who believes deeply in destiny and would risk everything for true love. Let's just hope that your stars are aligned in a happier pattern than poor Juliet!

Elizabeth
Good-natured Elizabeth Bennet is a heroine we can all relate to. Famous for her outspoken honesty and sharp sense of humor, we are captivated by her all-too-human mistakes as she searches for true love in the repressed society of Regency England. Like Elizabeth, you refuse to marry for pragmatic reasons and will hold out for true love.

Emma
Madame Emma Bovary is a woman who is not satisfied with a normal life. Determined to indulge her passions, she seeks romance and luxury through love affairs and spending on credit she cannot repay. Like Emma, you have a passionate nature, and you sometimes make mistakes in the name of love. But don't be disheartened by Emma's cautionary tale. Unlike the repressed wives of Madame Bovary's era, modern women are free to fulfill their ambitions and satisfy their desires as they choose. So embrace your wild side without fear! Thank goodness for the sexual revolution, right ladies?
