What a legitimate way to spend time on the internet! I particularly enjoy the search for my hero. Looking at pictures of hot looking guys - a hazard of the job...damn, this it's tough at times being an author but someone's got to do it. :-).
Anyhow, I've completed quite a few searches now for heroes for my books and collated a collection in a file on my laptop. They inspired the idea for this post.
Readers, how would you like to participate in a HOT Heroes poll?
It would require you to undertake the onerous task of examining and judging pictures of some guys and picking your favorite - a difficult chore, I know, but if you really tried, I'm sure you'd be able to force yourself to complete it. :-)
I'm thinking we might have a few heats - it's hard to narrow down the field! - and come up with half a dozen or so finalists for the HOT Hero final round.
So, without further ado, here's the first heat of candidates. Place your vote over the next week (by quoting the Hero's label in the comments section), and I'll post the rankings so you can see which heroes proved popular in what order.
Finalists will be announced at the end of the month - so make sure your vote counts!

Hmm - since there's no Erik from True Blood *g* my vote goes to hero 6
ReplyDeleteBlogger seems to be having issues with some posting some people's comments.
ReplyDeleteThis from Anita J.: "...your hero voting is too much fun to miss (all in the name of research of course) so I thought I'd email you a vote for Hero #4."
So, thanks, Anita, and Mel! :-)
Not going to miss the chance for some... ahem, "research" so I vote number 4. Look at that smile!
ReplyDeleteGeez, this job is so hard some days. :D
Definately no 6
ReplyDeleteHero 3 is actually the married BF in my current WIP so I'll have to vote for him. We obviously spend time lurking around the same pretty men sites, Kylie. And yes, totally valid use of time.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool, Kylie! Wow!!! We must frequent the same sites. LOL
DeleteHero #4. I have a heap of photos of him already for a future hero, so it was an easy choice. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm torn between no.4 dark and sexy - my old addiction and hero 1 - toffee colored skin, my latest addiction. Am I allowed to have them both?
ReplyDeleteI'll let you get away with 2 votes this time, Cathleen. :-)
DeleteHero number 4 for me
ReplyDeleteLooks like we have an early leader! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love hero Number one. Yummy, yummy, yummy.
DeleteErin
#4 has gorgeous dimples but its #1 for me all the way...his eyes are TO.DIE.FOR...his lips are very kissable looking too ;p
ReplyDeleteDecisions, decisions...BTW, did viewing help at all with your cold, Cath? Take two and sleep on it, you should feel better in the morning. ;-)
DeleteNever too sick to size up some sexy heroes...
DeleteWow, Kylie, it was a close call, but my vote goes for hero # 6
ReplyDeleteSomething about #6 screams bad boy, eh, Sandy? :-)
ReplyDeleteWell Kylie if you need help then I will just have to suck it up and help you out.
ReplyDelete#4 would be my first pick, second place would be #2.
There, whew. Who knew being an author was such hard work, glad you can handle the job =) And thanks for sharing the fun!!
It's SUCH a hard job being a judge sometimes - I agree! :-P
Deletethink im gonna have to go with 4!!
ReplyDeleteOMG I'm torn between #1 his eyes are amazing!!! and #6 he's to die for!!!
ReplyDeleteOk so my vote goes for Hero #6 please.
Thanks Alainala & Simone - it is hard to choose, but there's something about a guys eyes when they stare into a lens lie #1 & #6 are doing. :-)
ReplyDeleteOo oo no. 4, love those dimples and green eyes. Yum.
ReplyDeleteSorry I have to have two votes too. 2 & 4.
ReplyDeleteYummo
Hero 4 for me - who can resist his smile and his eyes? Though hero 1 is a close second. Oh, I do love this sort of work!
ReplyDeleteOh, Kylie, what a chore! The eyes on No 1 are magnetic, the smile of No 4 infectious, but I'm going with No 3, for the mystery, and the lips!
ReplyDeleteDecisions, decisions, this is going to be a hard won heat, everyone! :-)
ReplyDeleteOhh, this is going to be fun. I feel sorry for you having to look through all those pics, hope you can hear my sarcasm. I have to go with No 2, those blue eyes! Wonder what he's thinking. Then No 4, he's flat out hot!
ReplyDeleteOh, make it difficult why don't you, Kylie :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a tough decision. I narrowed it down to the even numbers LOL. #6 is smoking; #4 has a gorgeous smile...but those eyes in #2 have to take my vote. Bedroom eyes that need a bit more bedroom, hair that needs mussing, lips that need sinful kisses. Yep, #2 for me.
Cath
This is a bit scary for me as most of them look my son's age - in fact, is that my son????
ReplyDeleteSince I can't resist a guy with dimples, I'm going for number 4 - (plus he looks the oldest and i don't want to be accused of being a cradle snatcher :)
Ahh, I love a hotly contested heat! :-)
