Which Hugh Would You Do?

A big thanks to Carly for asking me to guest blog with the plot monkeys! What’s not to love about hanging with some of your favorite authors for a day?

And now to the subject. Like a lot of writers, when I picture a hero for one of my books, I often see him as a celebrity. And to be even more truthful, I often see him as one particular celebrity…Hugh Jackman. Pardon me while I sigh, quiver, drool….

Hugh. Ahhhhhhh…Hugh. Okay, I’ll stop quivering long enough to type the remainder of the blog.

I’m sure you’re thinking, “But each hero is unique.” My answer? “True. But so is each Hugh.”

Here are a couple of examples from my books: In KISS AND DWELL, Ryan Chappelle was a sexy roofer who happened to die before his time (hence the reason he’s glowing on the cover). Who did I see as Ryan? This Hugh (we’ll call this Hugh #1):

In my current release, TO CATCH A CHEAT, Trent Jackson is a sexy-as-all-get-out blast from my heroine’s past who, in my mind, is Hugh #2:

This will give you yet another (and another, and another) indication of the many faces of Hugh…

Hugh #3:

Hugh #4:

Hugh #5:

So many Hughs, so little time. And in case you’re wondering, I’m totally planning to feature as many versions of Hugh as possible in my books. But I do have a favorite, and I’m sure you do too. So here’s my question to you – which Hugh would you do?

CONTEST – one commenter will win an autographed copy of my new release, TO CATCH A CHEAT, featuring Trent Jackson (Hugh #2)
