Sexy Leading Men and Why I Love Them Part #3

You have the right to remain silent....
Yeah, Yeah. Yeah... I prefer to skip the introductions and get right to the handcuffs!! 
You won't catch me evading arrest if any of these good guys come after me packing serious heat....I surrender!! Frisk me, please?!?!
 =^-^= 
Eric Johnson
    [image error]
Okay, so he's in the dog house right now for an epic cheating story line on ABC's summer cop drama, "Rookie Blue." His character, Detective Luke Callaghan, may have done the dirty deed with his ex-partner/girlfriend, but as far as I'm concerned, the actor, Eric Johnson can do no wrong. I mean, come on... just look t him. Besides, he probably just needs the right leading lady and I am sooo hoping to make it onto that call back list!!! 


Ben Bass
[image error]
That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!! I must admit, I really don't feel bad looking at Ben Bass as a piece of sexy meat, despite the fact that he's supposedly a vegetarian.  His character, Officer Sam Swarek on "Rookie Blue" is about as alpha-male as they come. This Baltimore honey, knows how to enter a room with a satisfying helping of swagger and I'd love to play 'training officer' as his rookie any day!! 


Adam Rodriguez
   Tan Guapo y Caliente, papasito!
Pass the salsa people, I'm going in for a dip!! Adam Rodriguez, from "CSI Miami" ,  has had mi corazón for a number of years and was, in fact, my muse for a little "May/December" romance novel that's tucked safely in the nightstand by my bed. I've drooled over this Latin lover from New York, for more years than anyone needs to know. Te amo mucho, mi amor!! Besos!! LOL!


Scott Caan
   
Believe it or not, this buff bad-boy is the owner of my 16yr old daughter's heart! I promised her that, Scott Caan , the sexy son of Hollywood icon, James Caan, would get equal time on my leading men list. So, today is the day!!! Of course, this actor won her heart long before she ever heard the words, "Book him, Dano," on the remake of "Hawaii Five-O." 
I would remind her that he's too old for her, but then I would have to give up on Sean Connery! LOL! (I think I'll just keep the opinion to myself!!)     ;-)


Alex O'Laughlin
[image error]   
Here's where we separate the women from the girls and send the kiddies off to bed!! Long before there was an Edward Cullen, a Damon Salvator or Lord forbid, a Jason Craft (from my own Blood Hunter Trilogy)...there was Mick St. John...the sexiest vampire to ever bare his fangs!! I can't get enough of this sex-machine on "Hawaii Five-O" , but I gotta say...I sure wish he'd  bite someone just for the hell of it!!
Alex O'Laughlin is my kinda cop and I can't wait for this year's new season to start. 


Come back soon for a look at my next picks for sexy leading men when I reveal my favorite TV attorneys!! 

Celine Chatillon

Happy Monday!!
If I've never mentioned before how lucky I am to do what I do, allow me to take a second to say so now. 
Rarely would someone like me ever have an opportunity to get to know such talented people and incredible authors. 
Yep! I lurves my job!!
Today's guest is one of those talented authors, Celine Chatillion!! We're in for a naughty little treat as she shares her latest edition of "Brandi Whyne And Her Incredible Erotic Adventures".......let's take a look!!!

Brandi Whyne and Her Incredibly Erotic Adventures: Chapter 6--Kidnapped by Time Bandits!  available from eXtasy Books: http://tinyurl.com/brandi-6 What do you get when Star Wars meets Sherwood Forest? Mix in a little Pirates of the Caribbean, Fanny Hill and The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and you get Brandi Whyne and Her Incredibly Erotic Adventures (with Robin Manhood and His Totally Sexed-Out Space Pirates). With a series title that long, you know it's going to be filled with loads of laughs, tons of sci-fi fun and plenty of hot sex!In Chapter Six, Kidnapped by Time Bandits, Brandi is sucked into an alternate dimension and forced to do a little sucking on some not-so-nice space pirates—including Robin Limpdick, the evil twin of her own lover, Robin Manhood. After a good licking, she meets Captain Jacques Swallows and his right hand man, Francois, who put her to the test. Can Brandi convince the time bandits that the crew of the Pulsating Purple Parsnip can do more than just throw a great orgy?
WARNING: ADULT CONTENT!!!Excerpt set-up: Brandi must pass the Time Bandit's test in order to ensure her crew's continued existence... Jacques Swallows raised his hands. "The test will now begin."

Francois quickly and quietly disrobed his master. I was not disappointed in what I saw. The time bandit had a beautiful body, buff and muscular, a hairless chest and a cock length that rivaled Little John's. My hand fell to my clit, and I began to stroke myself. It throbbed as my vaginal muscles clenched at the thought of that bad boy sliding into my tight passage. I looked to my lover for permission to bed the stranger for the good of our crew. He nodded slightly and smiled.

"Now it your turn," Swallows said, indicating that both Limpdick and I were to undress. I tore off my silky flowing shirt and kicked off my boots even before my opponent had a chance to remove his shirt.

"So, it's a three-way?" Limpdick said, laughing. "I can tell you she gives a good blow job, so if you let me give her ass a good pumping you can—"

The time bandit cut him off mid-sentence. "Brandi gives excellent fellatio, you say? Good. How about you, Limpdick?"

"How about me what?"

"Can you suck my dick as well as Brandi can?"

My challenger paled. "Say what?" Bio: Celine Chatillon is the alter ego of multi-published romance novelist, Cynthianna. Celine finds writing erotica a very pleasant departure from her day job as a manuscript evaluator and copy editor.  Her erotic-romance tales with eXtasy Books include the series Brandi Whyne and Her Incredibly Erotic Adventures, The Loves of Her Life, A Middle Class Existence, Gifts Well-Timed, and Yes, Virginia Here Comes Santa Claus. You can read excerpts from her novels on her web sites:http://www.celinechatillon.com and http://www.cynthianna.com Many more stories of SF/fantasy/paranormal and/or humorous erotic-romance fun and wonder are in the works.

Six Sentence Sunday #4

Damphyrs, Incubi and Vampires, Oh my!!!This week's sentences are from my current WIP again,due for release in November,"Midnight Beckoning"
Blurb:Ford Lenox, a natural born damphyr, waited three hundred years for the phenomenon of his birth to be repeated. Many had been conceived. Many had even been born. But, only a few made it to their twenty-first birthday. And, none shared the same requirements as he, to assume their rightful place at his side and become his queen.Until now. Lauren Neil was born three hundred years to the day after Ford's birth, and it was no coincidence that he found her only days before her twenty-first birthday. Little did she know that the damphyr lurking beneath her human surface was about to be unleashed, prominently placing her on the throne to rule over damphyr and vampire alike.  Lauren's demonic sire slash father, Drago, an incubus, straight from the pits of hell, has other plans. Can Ford fulfill the prophecy and save Lauren and their kind? Or will a new species be created to rule the world?Even matches made in heaven, may have to go through hell to survive!

here's my six...In an instant, his mouth engulfed hers and he slammed her back against the wall. His tongue plunged deep as a determined hand groped her breast. Evan twisted her hair into a tight knot with his fist, delving deeper into her mouth as a savage grumble vibrated in his chest. His tongue encircled hers and he sucked her into him as though he would swallow her whole. Lauren pushed against his hardened chest, trying with all her might to break free.     Evan stopped, reared back, and stared into her eyes, searching back and forth with a panic like none she'd ever seen. 

Mahalia Levey

My guest today is a wonderful author and friend, Mahalia Levey. I've had the pleasure of getting to know this super talented lady over the last year, since joining the Devine Destinies / eXtasy Books family. 
This author brings a lot to the table, and let me just say... she sets the bar high when it comes to motivating me, personally, to step up my own game, just so I won't embarrass her in public. I hope she doesn't run and hide when I tell people I know her.
Nah, surely not. LOL!
I'm so glad she's here today and even happier she's sharing one of her many books with us now...


Thanks, Robin, for having me! I'd like to share the blurb and excerpt for my coming release Rhapsody.
[image error]
Nevaeh Harris finally has her chance. Two albums in a row she's worked with Crimson Rage's lead guitarist. From his perfectly styled hair to the faded jeans and tee's he sports, she's become his number one groupie fan. The only problem is, he doesn't notice her jaw dropping every time he enters the same room as her. Her age and weight are issues she must face in order to drum up enough courage to get his number.Wade 'Garrick' Stevens is psyched to work on the newest cover for his band mates. They have a vision that only one sexy graphic artist can bring to life. The last two sold goldmines thanks to her brilliance. Also more than just professional appreciation is happening in their working environment, there's personal chemistry, which suits him just fine. Years younger than her, he plans to convince her on one date she's the perfect harmony for his lyrics. He's sure sparks will ignite. 


A guitarist and an artist, two souls meant to collide. Will outside opinion fade into the distance or destroy them before they have a chance.EXCERPT:Nevaeh Harris muted the resident dickweed's voice from her section. From the moment she set foot into the conference room, Jed's under-his-breath barbs about her weight and the snickers from his group of lackeys set her teeth on edge. Whoever dubbed the phrase, 'Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you,' was a damn liar or suffered from a heavy dose of denial. For years she swallowed the hurt caused by close-minded individuals, who knew nothing of genetics.  Their unprovoked lack of professionalism reminded her, she was the better person.  Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall…on down helped her to maintain a semblance of composure—not letting them know they got to her. Perhaps that's what his kind got off on. Not the actual cruelty spewed from their mouths or the hate they perpetuated, but the response garnered from their victims.But they were of little consequence now. A master's degree in art and minor in marketing, plus a little maneuvering to get her resume seen by the right people landed her a job that granted her access to Wade.  Wade Garrick Stevens, known as 'Wade Stevens' in the music industry. The young genius guitarist for Crimson Rage possessed all the attributes she loved in a man. Charm, warm eyes, humor and for someone in the limelight, an unnatural but appreciated humility. His lean physique made her stomach flop whenever he commanded a room. At times, when he sat near her, his knee just barely bumping hers, she wished she could gather the nerve to really speak to him. She'd worked on the last two album covers and promotional art for his band and hoped to stay on for the long haul. Lustful thoughts turned to dust. A man like him, she'd never have a chance. Four or five sizes smaller, sure. The media always had him paired up with some model or last she'd heard heiress to a racing team.  In these times she envied her siblings. How her two younger sisters ended up being size petite zeros and she a solid size ten—at the bottom half of her hips and all—she'd never understand. By some screwed twist of fate she ended up last in the gene pool. Better a fat-ass than a fucktard. Biting back the aggravated snark on the tip of her tongue sucked.  Nevaeh clicked her teeth and slid none too gracefully past her co-workers to an open seat at the conference table.Opening her portfolio, she set the new designs on top of the leather casing. This time she had the foresight to slip them into plastic sleeves, in case of an 'accident'. Years of hard work taught her mistakes such as liquid sloshed over her drawings were intentional. The last fake apology out of Alishia's mouth didn't contain an ounce of sincerity or a grain of remorse. Instead, after Wade left, the whispers of Nevaeh fawning over him grew into a huge joke. Star-struck, she'd lost her ability to speak and when she could all that came out were stammers, and knocking his drink into his lap had certainly not helped any. In her attempt to make things right, she vigorously blotted the wet area of his crotch with napkins. In the end the discomfort caused her to leave the room."Sorry I'm late."There he was in the flesh. With his designer shades and that cologne that made her want to daydream even more about just sniffing him."We haven't started yet." Jed spoke up and passed down the paperwork needing his signature."It's all good. I don't expect this meeting to be a long one. Nevaeh."Jasmine kicked her under the table.  "What?""Over here. Hey how are you today doll?""Uh." God you'd think the enamored nitwit in her would've took a hike after the second time working together. Turning bright red she slammed her mouth shut and just gawked."What a wannabe."The whispered barb reached Wade's ears. She could tell from the scowl that came across his face. Wonders would never cease, apparently he had good hearing—loud rock music and all. "Do you have something to add Jed?""Sorry. It was a joke is all.""Frankly I don't give a damn. Keep your jokes to yourself.""Nevaeh?"He said again and this time she actually smiled at him."Yes ,Wade?""Garrick or did you forget?" He smiled openly at her. Surreptitiously she glanced around to see if he was smiling at someone else."Garrick." The sound of his middle name used by precious few rolled off her tongue. When she looked back at him a flicker of something crossed his face, so faint it was gone before she could tell if the flash was of desire or a figment of her imagination."Did you bring me the printed designs?""Yes. They're right here." She leaned over and handed the sleeves to him. "I hope you they're what you want.""You've never let me down before doll." He winked and leaned back in the leather wing back chair to glance over them."What about the new backdrops? The new special effects for the upcoming tour? The roadies want an update." Wade leaned forward and put the cover art designs on the table.Nevaeh knew the design team was behind because they couldn't retrieve their heads from their asses and do their job. She reached inside her portfolio and withdrew staging designs made to scale on her graphics software and a DVD of how she envisioned their new tour. "I have some extra samples for you. It's nothing really I was just playing around with some thoughts.""Anyone else do their job around here?" Of all the band members to piss off, Garrick was the worst. His family came from money. Not old money. No, his father built their brand brick by brick with hard work and sweat, attaining status and prestige in a way that the born rich envied. The next generation, he and his siblings, all learned the trade at his elbow. And while rumors ran amok of his father's disappointment in how his first born quote 'dabbled' in music instead of heading up one of their offices, no one could discount that Wade took after his father.Exposure to the ruthless and iron clad way his pops ran his business rubbed off on Wade, in more ways than one way. His intelligence and the way he ran a tight ship for his label gave him credence where due and respect from many in the music industry. Wade always meant what he said and the innuendo, well that went without saying. Nevaeh couldn't help but to smile at their discomfort."We're almost done tweaking our concept for you." Jed motioned for the disc."We're all one team right? Does it matter where the ideas originate from? Or the end result?" Nevaeh rounded on them. Their attitudes needed changing and it was high time someone called them on it—or fired them and hired individuals who wanted to do their damn jobs without being babysat. She knew how much he disliked unfinished deadlines. If she hadn't known the software, she'd have bought a new program and spent all her spare time learning—to please Wade if no one else."Thanks doll. Would you mind stepping outside for a moment? I'd like to speak to the tech team in private.""Sure." She pushed back her chair and stood up. Daggers were cast her way as she wiggled past Wade to get to the door. In the other room she attempted to hear what he was saying, but he spoke in his lower tone. Meaning heads were about to roll. Serves the assholes and bioches right for not putting the band first. For all their complaining they seemed to forget the fame and fortune of the band was what paid their overly large salaries. Not to forget the extra bonuses he gave out for appreciation of their time.For Wade, she'd do the work for free. Following the band for years gave her insight on their growth both as a band and as individuals. She knew most of them on a base level, enough to gauge what was in and out. Hands in pocket, she leaned against the wall waiting to return to the room.Hushed voices became louder. Wade's voice rattled on and then absolute silence filled the air.

Avril Ashton

Yesterday was a ton of fun!! Today will be downright delicious!!
"Make Me Sweat" is a fast paced, gritty kind of story that pushes the envelope of romance and trust between two dynamic characters on opposite sides of the law. 
Avril Ashton has a knack for taking two bad ass people, throwing them into turmoil, and allowing them to work their problems out, often times, between the sheets. 
After all, it's hard to stay at odds with someone when you're horizontal! ;-) 
Few understand that better than this author does, but don't take my word for it... let Dak and Ever show you what I mean...


[image error]
Charged with planting a listening device in the office of a dangerous nightclub owner, Ever Marcille accepts an invite from her target to indulge in some naughty play. She didn't count on their mutual, insatiable need, or the many ways his closely guarded secrets are intertwined with hers. Undercover federal agent Simon Dakin has one thing on his mind, catching the arms dealer known as Ghost. That's until he spies the mysterious woman at his bar. Time after time she comes in, teasing his senses. Starring in his fantasies. He promises himself one night with her in his arms, but a single taste isn't possible. He's hooked. Even as their secrets intrude, Dak and Ever succumb to their desires. But time is running out. Secrets past and present must be revealed. Can their new-found feelings survive the many blows, or is this over before it even begins?
EXCERPT:
Ever Marcille blinked up at the last man she should be swapping bodily fluids with. Did Ian Dakota just ask her to spend the night with him? And was she seriously contemplating it?The job she came here to do was done. She'd planted the tiny listening device on the underside of his huge oak desk—the one he'd fucked her on—so it was back to Wes. There was no space on her calendar for a second round of bump and grind with the club owner known for his many varied criminal activities.Never mind she was a criminal, too."Ever." Damn it, she blinked again. Ever parted her lips to tell him no, but he kissed her. Fucking man and his kisses. He tasted of her pussy and whiskey. A heady mixture she could get drunk on. She opened wider under his insistent probe and got swept away by that damn tongue of his. Still lodged deep inside her, his cock twitched and she tightened around him.He bucked, her hips swiveled, and someone knocked on the door. Ever cursed and rejoiced quietly. Saved from compounding her mistake, now to make a quick exit.Dak flipped his heavy dark hair over his shoulder and yelled. "What?"The voice of the security guard who'd escorted Ever upstairs came through the door. "That call you've been expecting? On line two."Dak signed. "Thanks, Jayce." Regret shadowed his eyes as he held Ever's gaze. "I'm sorry, I've got to take this."She shrugged. "Do your thing." With infinite slowness, hoping to prolong the feeling, she eased off his cock, lifting up until they were separated. Fucking torture that. His rough fingers fluttered on her hip as she slid down his body and stood on wobbly feet. Blowing her sweaty bangs out of her eyes, Ever offered him a smile. "Point me in the direction of your bathroom and I'm good." Dak jerked his chin, indicating a closed door to her left. She pivoted and he grabbed her arm. "You didn't answer me earlier."Ever met his eyes over her shoulder. Dark and brooding, they mesmerized her."Spend the night with me."To keep from shouting yes to the rooftops and having Wes declare her more crazy than normal, Ever pursed her lips. "Where do you live?" It wasn't that she didn't know where Ian Dakota lived. She and Wes made it a point to know everything about the people they did business with, but some time needed to be bought.                 He named a very affluent neighborhood, and she nodded, shrugging off his hand. "Take your call, I'll think about it." She snatched her dress from the floor and hurried to the bathroom.Inside the huge, luxurious bathroom, she bolted the door and sagged against it. Stupid. A very stupid move bumping uglies with a potential client. Her sole mission had been to get the bug planted. That way if he needed anything to use against Mr. Dakota, they'd have it at the ready. He didn't get to be a profitable weapons broker without issuing a few threats and blackmailing a couple people. In fact, she knew first hand how much worse things could get.Ian Dakota wanted weapons, and he'd contacted Ever for them, only he didn't know who she was. He didn't know the woman he'd fucked was the only person standing between him and the mysterious arms dealer named Ghost.Splashing water on her face, Ever fixed her hair back into its original upsweep and stepped into her dress. One last, deep breath then she opened the door and stepped outside. The dimly lit office was quiet, with Dak nowhere in sight, but the gorgeous security guy from earlier stood by the windows."He wants you to wait for him." He didn't look in her direction.Ever smiled and eyed the well-muscled man in a black t-shirt and faded jeans. He had one of the best asses she'd seen on anyone, not that she'd tell him that. "Jayce, right?"Jayce nodded and turned to her, dark glasses covering his eyes. The sharp crew cut gave him a severe appearance, one she suspected he cultivated."Jayce, it's been a pleasure." She pulled open the door leading outside and glanced at him over her shoulder. "Kindly tell your boss I wait for no one."
  TOLD YA'!!!

Ahh! The Lovely Avril Ashton Returns!!

Sealed with a Kiss would like to welcome back author, Avril Ashton. Some of you may have heard me refer to her as 'my sister from another mister', but may not know why. Well to make a long story short, which is quite a feat for a writer in the first place, sometimes you run across people whom you feel you have known forever, or just instantly know that if geography wasn't the issue, you would probably hang out with them as often as possible. Avril is one of those people for me.



*Note* It has very little to do with our taste in men or shared fantasies about a certain singer/rapper/actor we may have in "Common"!!! 









Like I said, NOTHING at all!
Without being too sentimental, Avril was one of the first authors I met, while very new to this industry, that didn't make me feel like the dweeb I really am. She encouraged me and let me vent, so naturally whenever she has a bee in her bonnet (she'll get a kick outta that) I listen to her bitch-fest, too!It's a rare find when people who share common goals, likes, dislikes and interests can come together and support one another, even if we all live thousands of miles apart. That's the beauty of the internet. Another beautiful thing is that I can share her with you now by tying her to the hot seat and making her sweat!
Speaking of sweat, let's take a look at her latest release, "Make Me Sweat", then we'll get back to the hot seat!

Can their new-found feelings survive the many blows, or is this over before it even begins?




Just look at that cover! yummy!! Come on, let's have some fun!Hello Avril, so glad you could join us!!First off, let me just say that this latest adventure you're taking us on in "Make me Sweat", did just that….MADE ME SWEAT!! It's that hot!Where in the world do you come up with such daring characters?
LOL, totally love my intro! And yes, I did giggle at the bee in the bonnet thing. Love ya, Rob ;) So…daring characters. I'm surrounded by strong, confident people, both men and women. I'm no slouch myself, so I tend to write characters who I can relate to and respect. 
How important is it to you that your heroines be the hard asses they've all been so far?
It's very important. I'm a hard-ass and I have no respect for those females who can't hold their own, be it in the bedroom, boardroom, or on the sidewalk. The era of women sitting back and waiting, depending on others for their needs and wants are long gone. Everything should reflect that. My heroines are all reflections of the women around me; strong women, sexy women, women firmly in control of their destinies. Women who kick ass wearing five inch heels, making no excuses as they take what they want.
I LOVE that!!!When you think of your heroes, do you have a particular actor/model in mind you use as a muse while creating them? If so, who would you cast as Dak in a movie?
I don't start off with a set person in mind for my heroes. In the middle or end of the story, after really knowing their traits and features, I look for someone well known who'd fit that mold. Alex O'Loughlin comes to mind for Dak.  His dark features are completely arresting and he's extremely confident, plus he's soo totally dreamy... hmmm
Oh no, yet another man we both lust for. Will our tastes ever differ? Nah! Probably not! LOL!The same question for Ever? What sexy, bad-ass would play her on screen?
LOL Ever. Who'd play Ever? Oh, the pressure of a name. I'd say Kerry Washington. She's a sexy, smart woman with a quiet strength to her that I find alluring.
Yeah, I could see Kerry as Ever. I'll overlook the fact that she's been in a video with that other sexy man we have in "Common".Now for the juicy stuff. This story finds our couple in some pretty hot and heavy love scenes. Did you have any concerns while writing those tricky parts and if so, how did you address them?
No concerns. Nada. None. Did I say no concerns? LOL There are just some things you innately know your characters would do and some you know they won't. The…ahem, things, Ever and Dak do, none of my other couple have done. It's unique to them and their situation. I simply try to make it as sexy as possible, try not to gross anybody out, and hope at least one person likes it.
No problems there!What is the likelihood we could see these two together again in another adventure?
Not likely at this point. I think their story's been told and if we see them next it'll be in the supporting role of another story.
Good and bad news then. Since you mentioned Dak and Ever becoming supporting characters in a future work, does that mean a story for the current supporting characters in this one? I've heard some readers mention it and I must ask, too… will we see these guys again?
Yes, readers have been asking for Wes and Jayce's story. It's in the infancy phase right now, but it's coming. It's tentatively titled Make Me Beg and picks up six months after Make Me Sweat ends. 
Yayyy! That's great news!!I hope you're not going to make us wait too long for another book, whether it has anything to do with these characters or not. What's next for you?
I'm writing, though not as fast as I should. I keep getting waylaid by the urge to read. Temptation. I'm doing revisions on In Wicked Chains (book#3 in The Wicked series), about to start Wicked is his Touch (book#4 in The Wicked series), finishing the first draft of Till Surrender (The PSC series bk#2, M/M) and alternating between finishing my first F/F and beginning a totally new M/M story. It's a heavy workload and totally worth it.       

It so totally is!! ;-)Where can we find your other books now?

Six Sentence Sunday #3

Happy SIX Day!!This week's SIX are from a current WIP, releasing November from eXtasy Books...
"Midnight Beckoning"By: Robin Badillo
Ford's hand twisted in the curls of her long crimson hair and he pulled her to him harder. Heat sifted down his body and the burn to his groin returned once again.
           Without hesitation, Ford ripped her blouse way,               instantly sinking his fangs deep into her flesh. With the one exception of the chamber maid when he first awoke a damphyr, he'd never bitten anyone, not even for food. 
What he wanted now went beyond passion. This was a savage thirst for her, every last decadent drop of her.

#1 Michael C Hall

Okay, so you may ask...is it Michael I find so irresistible or his blood lusting, serial killer persona on "Dexter" ? To be quite honest...BOTH! Not that being a serial killer should be glamorized, but hey, he makes it look so right. I hadn't watched the first couple of season until this summer when I found them on Netflix. And now? Well, Dexter is one of my many guilty pleasures, and much like the character... I just can't help myself!!
#2 Aldis Hodge

Aldis? First of all, even his parents must have known he would be somebody special. A name like that stands out! This sexy man cracks me up as his character, Alec Hardison on "Leverage". There's just something sexy about the way this techno-genius character handles a keyboard that really gets me going. He puts the "G" in geek, (GQ that is)!!!
#3 Christian Kane

Ahhh! Christian Kane... the muscle-bound, ass-kicker, Eliot Spencer, also on "Leverage". This country boy (born in Dallas, Texas) has thrilled women all across the south and not only makes us swoon every week on Leverage, but captures our hearts when he sings, too. If you haven't checked out his country album, "The House Rules", you should!! 
#4 Nathan Fillion

Why? Because he's ruggedly handsome!! LOL! His character on "Castle" is a man after my own heart as an author. For a fictitious charatcer, he sure has a lot of readers. Those books are REALLY on books shelves at a store near you.True fans of Nathan Fillion will know him from "One Life to Live" as Joey Buchanan, or perhaps, Capt. Malcolm Reynolds on "Firefly"...and if you're a true die-hard fan, you'll know he is the voice of Gunnery Sgt. Buck on your kid's "Halo" and "Halo Reach" video games. Yeah, welcome to my life. This tall, handsome fella has the timing of a great comedian and a smile so cute, I wanna squeeze his cheeks... then kiss the heck out of him!! 
I hope you're enjoying my quirky taste in men. They aren't all the George Clooneys or Brad Pitts of the entertainment industry, but hey, they sure rock my world!!

Strong, sexy leading men & why I love them...

I took a little break today and decided to share some of my favorite leading men. Though looks play a big part, talent plays another. However, some of these men have a presence about them that neither looks nor talent can touch. Some of my favorite men may even surprise you...
#1 Tom Hardy
[image error] [image error] [image error] First of all... the photo on the bottom is a young, sexy Marlon Brando and might I be so bold as to wonder just where my darlin' Tom's dear mum was back in the day around the time he was conceived? Don't mean to start any dirty little rumors, I'm just sayin...Anyway, he first captured my heart in a movie titled: RocknRolla, co-staring Gerard Butler. Tom played a semi-closeted gay bad-boy by the name of "Handsome Bob". The scene that did it for me? His dominating presence as he charmed an admirer while sitting on the back of a sofa. Let me just say... the poor fella he was trying to get information from never stood a chance and neither did I!! Can you say, HAWT?Oh, and the slow dance he shared with Gerard Butler was adorable.
#2 Christopher Gorham
[image error] [image error] Why? Because I really likes him!!! Not only is he one of my favorite spies on "Covert Affairs", but he just looks great without a shirt. His character, Auggie, is blind and Christopher plays him well... if his wife didn't mind, though, I'd sure like him to lead me around in the dark so I could get a feel for his character...what can I say, I'm a method writer. Wink wink!
#3 Matt Bomer

[image error] [image error] Yes, my friends, this is how we grow 'em in Texas. In fact, Matt Bomer hails from a mere stone's throw from my front door...okay, twenty miles south, but hey, that's pretty damn close! He has the most mesmerizing blue eyes and I'm so jealous of his partner. You know what they say about all of the good ones.... Yep, that's right, they're always taken...LOL!  Oh well! I do get him for an hour a week when he stars on, "White Collar" and some nights I get lucky enough to catch him outta that shirt!! Ahhh!
#4 Chris Pine
[image error] [image error] Last, but certainly not least, I offer Chris Pine. For those of you with teenage daughters, you may know him from Princess Diaries 2...now forget that and fast forward to a little movie from 2009, called "Star Trek" !! Yes, he was in fact, James Tiberius Kirk and as corny as it sounds, he stole my heart while dangling from a narrow bridge aboard a Romulan spacecraft. In the heat of battle, just when you think he's done for, he looks the enemy in the eye and says four little words that are my favorite from the whole movie...no, not "Live long and prosper"...but, even better..."I got your gun!"  Ahh! That was sexy as hell for me, and saving the future of mankind paled after that one line. What can I say? I'm weird. =^-^=
Well, this was the first half of my favorite leading men feature. Make sure you come back to see who I drool over next. Who knows, you just may find your own muse or, dare I say... your future ex-husband? LOL!You never know who I may drag in here!! See ya' next time!!

Six Sentence Sunday #2

This week's SSS is from my soon to be released, first ever, full length, contemporary romance...no vampires, no paranormal anything...just a lot of sexy romance and fun!!! Enjoy...
"FLESH WOUNDS"(September  2011)
Beads of perspiration glistened across the inside of his bicep, trickled down around the side of a tapered waist and disappeared beneath a pair of low riding khaki cargo shorts.
My, my, what do we have here?
A splash of hot oil drizzled across her shoulder blade and she squeezed her thighs together tight to stifle the flood of warmth pooling between her legs.

In seconds, she heard the tear of her panties and the slight burn of fabric being ripped from her flesh. Without a doubt, it was the most erotic sound she'd ever heard and she writhed beneath him as his fingers deftly explored the prize she so zealously offered.

The heat from his lips singed her inner thighs, his kisses inching closer to his ultimate destination.
