Edward Cullen
Boy Type: Aloof Artist
Edward Cullen is the gorgeous aloof boy who sits with a select group of people at lunch. He keeps to himself and has a fantastic brooding expression that simply makes the girls drool. He's into music: listening to it, playing it, and creating it. On top of all that he's a vampire and that gives him the bad boy edge. Can we say swoon?
Jacob Black
Boy Type: Mr. Fix-It
Jacob Black is the ultimate handyman. The place you're likely to find him is the family garage as he loves cars and spends all his time, efforts, and money fixing them up. In fact, Bella's truck is just one of his pet projects. Jacob is good at fixing more than just cars-- he can fix problems and people too. Must be his warm and fuzzy nature. His friendship with Bella is what brings her out of the dark in New Moon.
Mike Newton
Boy Type: Guy Next Door
Mike Newton is the boy next door. His life is pretty easy. He has good friends, a good family, a good entry level job, and good looks. He can be pretty bright too and make smart observations. He wishes Bella would give him the time of day. He's persistent to a point and yields defeat when it's apparent things won't be changing.
Eric Yorkie
Boy Type: Sweet Nerd
Eric Yorkie is on the school newspaper, part of the yearbook staff, and on prom committee. He's active and smartly dressed, a little dorky, but that's all part of his charm. He's not used to asking girls out and misses his chance more than once. Perhaps all he needs is a little nerd girl loving!
Tyler Crowley
Boy Type: Popular Jock
Tyler Crowley is the popular jock. He's definitely into something athletic like basketball or football. Like Mike Newton, it's not hard for him to find a date, unless it's expecting that date to be Bella. Tyler is a flirt and very outgoing. If it isn't his muscles flashing, it's his shiny car as it comes toward you.

If you've just dropped in go to this post for the Guess the Chest explanation and learn more about the blog's birthday party. If you're already playing along I'm getting towels ready to help mop up the drool.
One lucky commentator on this post will win a once-read ARC copy of Pemberley Manor by Kathryn Nelson. You don't have to be right on the chests to be entered, you just have to leave a comment guessing them. Let's begin!
The next chest has featured in women's fantasies, both young and old. His chest is a very iconic one in a certain film.
I was surprised by how hunky this next fellow is... I don't know why really as I've always found him yummy on the eyes. I suppose it is because I never think of him when he's shirtless...
Which of course, is now burned into my retinas and is very happily lodged there.
I am going to go out on a limb here and expose the real Amelia Grey. I am not a dog person. Don't get me wrong, I think dogs are cute, but I didn't grow up with a pet in the house so I've just never learned much about dogs or cats. If I ever get a dog, I think I would like a Toy Poodle or a Yorkshire Terrier. I mean dogs just don't come any cuter.
You are probably wondering where I'm going with this....I do have a point. Although I know it is not wise to write about things of which I have no experience, I needed a dog in my current book A Duke to Die For.
The sweet, little dog, Tulip was only going to be in one chapter so I thought, hey, I can do this so I wrote her in. It wasn't that hard to do, or so I thought. Luckily, I had an author friend who has a dog, read that chapter for me just to make sure I had the little doggie doing all the right things.
Well, when she got through marking it up with her red pen, I was flabbergasted at how much I didn't know about dogs! Her comment to me was, "Tulip might as well be a stuffed toy dog sitting in Henrietta's lap." She kindly reminded me that dogs sniff, shed, drool, scratch, and bark. They like to be rubbed and petted and talked to, and well, I could go on, but I think you get the idea. The worst thing I did was call Tulip a she sometimes and a he at other times! I know, I know, that's terrible. I couldn't believe I had messed up so badly on one little dog. I found out it's harder for me to write one chapter with a dog in it than a whole book with the hero and heroine.
I've heard it over and over again in writing workshops through the years, "write what you know". After that experience, I'm taking that advice to heart. Needless to say, I think it will be a long time before I put another dog in a story. Who's your favorite pet companion-real or in literature?
Amelia Grey is giving away a copy of A Duke to Die For to one lucky reader. Open to US and Canada readers only. Enter by leaving Amelia a question or answering hers about pets. Winner will be announced April 15th, 2009.
Rafael Lazzini, a Brazilian male model, was recommended as a candidate for our Fabio search by Lex Valentine. When you get the chance to take a closer look later in this post at the boy you'll see he's the epitome of salty goodness. At 6'2" and 176 pounds, Lazzini is a mean lean muscle bound machine! It's hard to tell, but this handsome devil has green eyes... and the most perfectly kissable lips... le sigh.
His look is very versatile; long hair, short hair, dressed up or dressed down. He can be your corporate love interest, perfect for a contemporary romance or your rich play boy, perfect for those Billionaire categories. He can even be your personal down to earth handyman, or your Cabana boy. I have the pictures to back me up too!
Here he is as the driven corporate executive. I love how the suit fits him with jacket or without! I'd like to get me some of that!
Rafael as the rich play boy and as the sexy handy man minus his tool belt. So hard to choose... which would you pick?
But that's not all... I even have some pictures to show off the yummy goodness going on beneath the great clothes. Not work friendly, and be warned you'll want to get a cup to drool in!
If you think viewing Rafael in still photographic form you should see him in motion. Check out the youtube video of some of his photo shoots:
If this is what is grown in Brazil - I'm going to start importing some seeds and grow my very own hunk garden tomorrow! Who's with me?
