Hunks of the Week: Double the Hotties

The My Book Boyfriend group over at Shelfari has a monthly thread dedicated to the hotties that caught members' eyes over the course of their reading. The thread encompasses all genres from romantic suspense and contemporary romance to urban fantasy and paranormal romance with a few historical heroes thrown in. 

The academic year is starting here and I've been swamped in preparation so I didn't manage to post about our hunks last week :0(

The good news is that this week we have Double the Hotties!

Always On My Mind (Lucky Harbor, #8) 

The Hunks of the Week:

Ty Garrison aka Mysterious Cute Guy in Lucky in Love by Jill Shalvis - "I have to say Shalvis certainly knows how to create the perfect male lead. I absolutely adored Ty. He is going in my Top 5 Male Leads for sure".

Styxx in Styxx by Sherrilyn Kenyon - "I've always been an Ash girl but Styxx did something to me. He is just so sweet...he breaks your heart!."

Jack Harper in Always on My Mind by Jill Shalvis - "Man, she writes great heroes" AND "He's a good guy, even though he was a commitment phobe but never really with the heroine"

Thanatos in Lethal Rider by Larissa Ione -  "Loved his vulnerability not to mention the tattoos!"

FBI Agent Finn McBain in Hotshot by Julie Garwood- "A real hero and hot to boot!"

David in Heat Stroke by Rachel Caine - "He is so scrumptious!"

Vikar in Kiss of Pride by Sandra Hill - "What a yummy Viking Vampire Angel he is!!"

Jamie Fraser in Outlander by Diana Gabaldon

Declan Camarine in On the Edge by Ilona Andrews

Cam Rohan in Mine Till Midnight by Lisa Kleypas - "Yes please!"

Quinn Braddock in Midnight Lies by Ella Grace - "I alternated between hate and love with this guy, but one thing was always certain, he's a sexy, sexy man!"

Jackson Davies in Wilde Child by Molly O'Keefe - "He's a great guy, almost to a fault and even skirted the edge of the anti harem for a time. He's tall and blond with sky blue eyes and is the town mayor.

Callahan O'Shea in Too Good To Be True by Kristan Higgins - "I loved him the first time I read the book and I absolutely ADORE him even more now!"

Jake Caplin in In Too Deep by Samantha Young - "This is going to make me sound somewhat creepy, but he was actually sexier as a teenager than an adult. But we don't get to see much of him wooing as an adult, so I'm hoping that changes in the next book. And I don't know what it says about me, but I love a dirty talker. I can't help myself."

Cade in Faking It by Cora Carmack - " I don't usually go for the perfect, good boys, but Cade won me over. He might have a heart of gold, but man, he's pretty sexy. And I liked his teasing, playful side."

Curran in Kate Daniels Series by Ilona Andrews - Oh My God he is such a badass hottie. I loved getting to see him and Kate together again :) Sigh he's just so awesome!"

Noah McCall in Return to Me by Christy Reece - He sexy, smart, dangerous, and Damaged with a capital D. Holy smokes, though he's hot.!"

Hunks of the Week: Sept 18-24

The My Book Boyfriend group over at Shelfari has a monthly thread dedicated to the hotties that caught members' eyes over the course of their reading. The thread encompasses all genres from romantic suspense and contemporary romance to urban fantasy and paranormal romance with a few historical heroes thrown in. 

Out of Control 

The Hunks of the Week:

Nick Robichaud in Out of Control by Stephanie Feagan - "He's Texas southern sexy and pretty mysterious. Sometimes on the arrogant side but he has to be when he's putting out oil rig fires. Double yum".

Marcus Marsden in It Happened One Autumn by Lisa Kleypas - "Even better the second time. Deceivingly uptight and unyielding, he's sexy and extremely caring."

Caleb D'Angelo in Storm of Visions by Christina Dodd - "He's an Italian bodyguard. As if that wasn't enough right there... I fell in love with him by the end of the book"

Roarke in Thankless in Death by J. D. Robb -  "Back with Roarke again ... He's still... Roarke:)"

Alec Kincaid in The Bride by Julie Garwood

Sawyer Thompson in Head Over Heels by Jill Shalvis - "OMG! I want Sheriff Hottie in human form please! Not too much to ask, is it?"

Simon Hunt in The Kissing Game by Suzanne Brockmann


The Anti Hottie Harem: 
 
Max "Torment" Huntington in Against the Ropes by Sarah Castille - "His domineering ways were so over the top that he went beyond Alpha towards psycho-stalkerish. You can bet your supply of sweet tea that I wouldn't allow a man of mine to growl at a guy who just happened to look at me. Of course the heroine thought all that was just adorable, so whatever!"
