Most Victorian English novels have rich heroes and poor heroines. I read Thomas Hardy's Far From the Madding Crowd and I like Gabriel Oak character a lot. I am trying to find other books with similar character where the hero is poor, humble but very loyal.
I'm very fond of Far from the Madding Crowd as well, I like Gabriel, and Bathsheba.
It is difficult to find novels that feature rich heroine, poor hero, you don't get a lot of those. You might like 'Under the Greenwood Tree' also by thomas hardy. Although it is not such an exciting and dramatic story as 'Far from the Madding Crowd' the heroine is a bit above the hero socially. Another novel you might perhaps enjoy is 'North and South' by Mrs Gaskell, which again, although the hero is not poor, the heroine is of a slightly higher social standing from him.
