#ManCandyMonday – Carlo from Never a Bride

From the moment that Carlo stepped onto the page I fell in love with him and I knew he was the perfect match for never-happily-after wedding planner Emma. Carlo is patient, kind, hard-working, and totally sexy. I pictured him with dark hair and a bit of a broody look even though he’s quite optimistic and friendly. You might be wondering why this hero’s name is Carlo and not Carlos and the reason is that his mom had a thing for Italian names when she decided to name Carlo and his two younger brothers, Paolo and Tomas. Speaking of younger brothers, I can’t wait to write a spin-off to the series featuring younger bad boy Paolo and Army Ranger Tomas. You’ll get to meet them as well in NEVER A BRIDE and I hope you’ll like them as much as I do!

#ManCandyMonday – Jason Morgan and Armani’s Acqua di Gio

I seem to see a lot of men’s fragrance ads lately. Hmm, wonder what that’s about. In any case, today’s Man Candy is Jason Morgan, the new model for Arman’s Acqua di Gio cologne. Thanks to Jason’s Instagram for this awesome shot! You can follow him here: https://www.instagram.com/jasonmorgan35/. Jason is apparently a teacher turned model and hails from Philadelphia. He’s been in a number of different ads and will also be doing promotions for Armani underwear in the future.

#ManCandyMonday – Ryan Phillippe

When I first saw Ryan Phillippe in I Know What You Did Last Summer I thought, Wow, what a gorgeous young man. He was such a great conflicted character in Cruel Intentions, but I never saw him as a rough and tough kind of military hero. I was wrong. He’s great in Shooter which just started its second season. You should check it out!

#ManCandyMonday – Jonathan Pierce from WHAT HAPPENS IN SUMMER

When you plot out a series, you have to think about who will be the heroes and heroines in subsequent books. I always knew that #2 in the At the Shore Series, WHAT HAPPENS IN SUMMER, would feature rebellious younger brother Jonathan. What I didn’t expect is how much I fell in love with Jon in #1 ONE SUMMER NIGHT. As he came alive on the page I realized he was a tortured soul that needed love so badly because he had already lost it twice. First when his mother abandoned him as a child and then when Connie pushed him away after their summer fling. Not to mention that for all his rebelliousness all Jon ever wanted with a place he could call home surrounded by family and the friends to whom he is loyal. That’s why I love Jon and I hope you will too. When I saw this model, I knew he was just how I pictured Jon to look, right down to that sexy grin! So what do you think about today’s Man Candy?

#ManCandyMonday – Scott Eastwood

I’ve always thought Scott’s uber famous father Clint was handsome, but Scott has him beat! I just watched The Longest Ride and have to say I really enjoyed the movie. I was even more shocked that it was based on a Nicholas Sparks book since it had a happy ending. Scott has appeared in a number of movies and you can also catch him in this year’s Pacific Rim Uprising. I know I’ll be looking for lots more of Scott and those baby blues and hot body!

#ManCandyMonday – Do Blondes Really Have More Fun?

Don’t tell Fabio, but I read somewhere that women don’t like blonde cover models. Of course, I couldn’t find the article with that info! I didn’t pay any mind to that when I made Jonathan, the hero in WHAT HAPPENS IN SUMMER, a blonde. What do you think? Do you like blonde surfer dude kinds of heroes or are you drawn to the dark and dangerous type?
