I found Julian/Hilary more convincing than you did, but NONETHELESS I also pined for the Hilary/Lisa version of this novel. The only difficulty is that Lisa & Rupert are sort of a package deal (in a "she's not going to shuck him off" kind of way, not an OT3 one) and I'm not sure how Hilary would feel about that long-term, especially given the repetition of "I love you best out of everyone" as a sort of romantic incantation...
But, uh, maybe Rupert could die doing Heroic War Correspondent Stuff and then Hilary & Lisa could raise Lisa's child together in bucolic bliss.
