Kate Meader is stopping by the blog today to talk hot men in books.
__________________________________
Too many fictional boyfriends, not enough time. How about a few from my reading over this past year?
1. Rowdy Yates from Getting Rowdy by Lori Foster.
With his sketchy past, and his penchant for hitting first and asking questions later, Rowdy is a great protective alpha. And the cover for this book is perfection.
2. Flynn from Willing Victim by Cara McKenna.
Construction worker-boxer with a taste for rough role-playing, and while we never get inside his head, McKenna lays it all out there. A Boston bruiser I wouldn’t mind meeting in a dark alley. (I’m working on my own boxer hero for my next series. He’s also a firefighter. And a former gang member. Just sayin’.)
3. Hardy Cates from Blue Eyed Devil by Lisa Kleypas.
Rich, Texan, from the wrong side of the
tracks, and so caring of the heroine. LK writes the caretaker alpha so
well, and Hardy is my favorite of her heroes.
4. Joey Miller from Collision Course by K.A. Mitchell.
This is an M/M romance and while some
people probably prefer the brooding Aaron of this pairing, I love, love,
love the manipulative, puppy-eyed, totally grounded Joey. A surfing
social worker, he’s the perfect match for a guy who’s been screwed over
by the
social services system.
5. Lord Vere from His at Night by Sherry Thomas.
He’s a secret agent posing as a society idiot! What’s not to love?

IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT . . .
Photographer
Lili DeLuca spends all her time working at her family's Italian
restaurant, instead of following her dream of getting
an MFA. When famous British chef Jack Kilroy unexpectedly challenges
her father to a cook-off, Lili decides she's tired of playing it safe
and vows to seduce the tempting Brit. But once a video of her and Jack
kissing goes viral and her luscious (if voluptuous)
butt starts trending on Twitter, Lili fears she's cooked up a recipe
for disaster . . .
Jack Kilroy's celebrity has left him feeling used and used up. While Lili's oh-so-sexy moans when she tastes his delicious creations turn him on, he's even more aroused by how this beautiful, funny woman is unimpressed by his fame. He knows they could be amazing together, if she could only see past his rabid-bitch, fork-wielding fan base. Now as he's about to start a new prime time TV cooking show, can Jack convince Lili to realize her own ambitions-and turn up the heat in his kitchen?
