Julie's Question - Yummy Men and Kick Ass Chicks

I don’t exactly have a go-to hero visual per-say; it largely depends on my mood and which book I’m reading. Sometimes a character just screams “tall, dark, sexy, alpha, badass male” and will remind me of Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) or Eric Northman (Alexander Skarasgard). At which point they become that persona. However, I’m easily distracted so more often than not I’ll cast someone from my every day life as the leading man. I sometimes bounce around while reading a book too and swap out the hero. Shameless I know! And finally, when no one fits the bill, I just let my imagination decide. Sure, my guy would like to believe that I fantasize about him and only him but we all know that’s a load of bull! 😉

I wanted to use a model other than Paul Marron for my example to avoid copying Julie. After extensive research on Google (okay 30 seconds) I found Greg Plitt:
