How About Those Bad Boys?

There is one truth about women, we can’t resist bad boys. Be it rogues, antiheroes, scoundrels, or rakes, they manage to captivate a reader. They can even be on the right side of the law as cops, soldiers, or spies, but they have done their share of sketchy deeds in the service of ultimate good that has cast a pall over them and caused them to struggle with inner demons that make it hard for them to find love. Or maybe they just like the ladies a little too much, and since the ladies like them back, they do their best to cut a swathe through the female masses. Personally, I like the antiheroes who have a past full of dark deeds but are struggling down the path to redemption. Or the right woman comes along to lead them that way. There are some writers like Anne Stuart and Sherrilyn Kenyon/Kinley MacGregor who specialize in bad boys. Bad boys are just addictive because they call out to the inner desire in a woman to fix their problems. Without further ado, here are some of my favorite bad boys.

Perhaps a little morbid of me, but I have been thinking a lot about death lately. I am a Christian, and I believe in life after death. I believe in eternal life with God after death. But there's still a part of me that wonders if life isn't just a cosmic joke. A part of me that fears that black oblivion of death. I think sleep is a good thing, but there are other things that I would prefer to do. I sleep because if I don't I am tired and I don't function well. The reason why I write this is because I think of death sometimes like sleep. If there is life after death (which I believe and choose to believe in), then death is just a long nap. But if for some reason death is the end, then it's a really scary thought that there's no waking up from that dark cloud of nothingness. My problem is that I am a worrier. I am pathological about it, actually. I am so bad about it, I memorized most of the scriptures that deal with worrying. It's like in that movie Inventin...

That writing bug has hit me again... I am finally recovering from a really, really long spell of writer's block. I have some good ideas swirling around in my brain. Think "Dreamcatcher", Jonesy's brain. That's how mine is. Well I'm wanting to do a Victorian Historical Romance series with a serious action/adventure edge. I'm thinking it's going to have some elements of the Orient, complete with stolen swords. Actually I have at least ten Victorian books in me since I love that time period. There's so many opportunities. Egypt, China, and that's not even talking Scottish men! Think Gerard Butler and a bluestocking spinster chock full of Victorian moral sensibilities. Intriguing.... Now I just need to set my arse down and write. Also I discovered a new classic Horror writer: George MacDonald, who happens to be a Christian writer. I need to pick him up. He has a book called Lilith, based on the old myth about Adam's wife. It's guaranteed to...

My Blond Yummy Gallery Includes: Rupert Penry-Jones Luke Goss Douglas Henshall Thomas Kretschmann Phillip Winchester Sunday is a Good Day Did you enjoy the gallery of Blond hotness? Don't forget Quantam of Solace comes out this weekend. Can you say Daniel Craig you have washboard abs I could bounce a quarter off of? You probably wouldn't say that, but I will. I am so feeling blond men lately. But I guess they are becoming hotter as I get older. I am just chilling today. Trying to get over this cold I caught. It could be worse, though. I have to get up very early tomorrow to go back to work after spending last week in Mississippi for a work conference. Unfortunately the hotel we had to stay in was a fleabag. It is so nice to be home in my own bed and clean house. The good news is I spent the week with some hot guys (in the books, unfortunately). I read the following books last week: Sale or Return Bride by Sarah Morgan Ice Storm by Anne Stuart Surrender by Pamela Clare Dark Desi...
