#ManCandyMonday Dylan McDermott

I’ve been chugging away nicely on the first book in the 2017 Jersey Girl Bridesmaid Series, tentatively titled SINCE WE WERE 18. I don’t normally pick an actor that I think would look like the hero, although I generally have a very good sense of the physical attributes of the hero (and heroine, of course). To be honest, I like to leave a lot to your imagination!

This time, I’m going to share a photo of someone who I think fits my general concept of the hero, sexy billionaire Jackson (Jax) Pierce

Today’s Man Candy choice is handsome Dylan McDermott. I first noticed Dylan in STEEL MAGNOLIAS and later in the first American Horror Story (which I could not keep on watching ’cause it creeped me out!)

The biggest difference between Dylan and my hero is that Jax has dark grey eyes shot through with shards of silver.

#ManCandyMonday Tom Hiddleston

Sorry I’ve been away for a bit, but I had to attend a legal conference and came back feeling less than 100%. Because of that, Memorial Day seems to have gone by in a blur, but I wish to take a moment to thank our military men, women, families and veterans for all that they do for us!

My hubby and I watched The Night Manager on AMC and if you haven’t yet caught this six episode mini-series, you must! It’s a really good spy thriller and Tom Hiddleston and Hugh Laurie are fabulous.

I have to confess that when I first saw Tom Hiddleston in THOR and THE AVENGERS, I really didn’t get why so many women were raving over him.

Then I saw him in The Night Manager. Wow. What a sexy man, especially all dressed up in those fabulous custom-made suits. Just wow. Of course, the only thing better than a sexy man in a suit is a sexy man out of it. LOL! Tom didn’t disappoint there as well, but unfortunately, no screen shots of his lean body in a bathing suit (although you can click here for a nice shot of Tom!).

You can visit their website for The Night Manager for more photos and exclusive features.

#ManCandyMonday Nico Tortorella

Nico first caught my eye in the first season of The Following. Sadly, he played one of the bad guys and I kept on hoping for his redemption because he was so cute! Now Nico is the love interest on Younger. I haven’t watched it, but that doesn’t mean Nico doesn’t keep on catching my eye. LOL!

Thanks to Nico’s Instagram feed for this photo.

made it to la like. @kylekriegerhair 📸

#ManCandyMonday Justice Joslin

Today’s Man Candy is male model and actor Justice Joslin. Justice has appeared in Fish Bait: The Movie, Selfie and The Quarry: 2011. He has also appeared in a number of commercials for companies like Nautica, Joop and this one for Bulgari. Very sexy, don’t you think? Click here if you can’t see the Bulgari commercial with Justice.

If you’d like to see more, and I mean LOTS MORE, click here for Justice in the JOOP Homme Extreme Xmas Commercial.

#ManCandyMonday NY Jet Ryan Fitzpatrick

Sorry I’ve been away, but I’ve been traveling and work has been insane! Not to mention that I am on deadline to finish the next one of the Take a Chance stories!

Even though the Jets lost yesterday, I thought it was time to share quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. Every time I see him, I can picture him on the cover of a Viking historical! What do you think?

#ManCandyMonday Buster Posey

Buster Posey is adorable. Such a cutie and a great ball player. He’s also the reason there is now a rule dictating how you can hit a catcher at the plate. In 2011, he was seriously injured in a collision at home plate.

Which brings up Saturday’s Utley tackle of Ruben Tejada of the Mets. I can’t call it a slide, because it wasn’t. Now you know I’m a Mets fan, but over and above that, I’m a baseball fan. I’ve watched lots of games. I played catcher on a softball team for a long time. That slide was uncalled for and injured a player. It also changed the course of the game and Utley’s suspension won’t change that now. He should have been called out and the game should have progressed with two out in that inning.

I always liked Utley, but that hit changed my impression of him FOREVER. If someone would do that to another ball player to win a game, in my humble opinion, he’s not a nice guy.

But Buster Posey is a nice guy and again, adorable. I love his face in this commercial for Esurance.
