#AManCandyMonday Bryce Harper Washington Nationals

My Amazin’ Mets may be in the midst of a pennant race with the Washington Nationals, but there is no denying that outfielder Bryce Harper is one delicious piece of Man Candy! Plus, he’s an amazing ball player. in 2012, Bryce was the first rookie ever chosen for the All-Star team and was the National League Rookie of the Year that year. Since then, Bryce has racked up amazing numbers and is considered one of the best in the game.

#ManCandyMonday A Double Treat Taye Diggs & Ian Anthony Dale

I caught a promo for Murder in the First and it intrigued me. So far, I’m enjoying it. Caution, though. It is very violent at times, but the intersecting story lines are very interesting as are the characters.

Two of the heroes are police officer and are today’s Man Candy: Taye Diggs and Ian Anthony Dale.

You may know Taye Diggs from RENT and a number of other movies and shows. Ian Anthony Dale first caught my eye in Hawaii Five-O. So enjoy today’s double dose of Man Candy!

You keepin' up?#mitf#breakoffaPeace

#ManCandyMonday In search of the older hero

When I wrote TO CATCH HER MAN, I knew that the heroine’s mother, Virginia, needed a story of her own. In fact, the original version of the book had a lot more scenes in which Virginia meets sexy Pablo Amenabar, but they were deleted during the editing process.

Despite that, I loved giving Virginia a little bit of romance in that book and I do plan to eventually write her story as well as finish off Adriana and Juliana’s stories. Maybe when I have more writing time.

My question for you today, on Man Candy Monday, is: Would you like to see a story with an older hero and heroine? A “mom-lit” story with forty and fiftyish characters?

For now, here is how I pictured Pablo and Virginia!

#ManCandyMonday Jacob deGrom #Mets #Yougottabelieve

Wow, dare I believe? The Mets swept the Nationals and are now in a tie for first place. As much as I thought this was possible, having it be a reality is . . . Well, I’m a Mets fan. We are diehard optimists up until that very last day of the season. I even think that this year we’ll see some playoff action and who knows what else. Dare I dream of a World Series spot? You bet I will!

Part of the reason for that is a stable of talented young arms, including Jacob deGrom who pitched an amazing inning at the All Star Game, throwing only 10 pitches to retire the side. Wow. An All-Star record by they way. Not to mention that he was the National League Rookie of the Year last year!

#ManCandyMonday Magic Mike XXL

I have to confess, I wasn’t one of the women who rushed out to watch this movie in the theater. In fact, I ended up watching it because I was restless one night and it happened to be on TV. Plot: not so good. Romance: needed more. Sexy men: Oh yeah, lots of men showing off buff bodies and sexy, sometimes naughty, dance moves.

So having said that, I know what to expect from Magic Mike XXL: lots of men showing off buff bodies and sexy, sometimes naughty, dance moves. So without further ado, today’s Man Candy Monday is not just one man, but quite a few. Here is the official trailer for Magic Mike XXL and if you can’t see it, click here to see the Magic Mike trailer.

The movie premieres on July 1, just in time for some 4th of July fireworks. LOL! For more on the movie, you can visit the official Magic Mike website.
