THURSDAY THIRTEEN: 13 ACTORS WHO HAVE INSPIRED CHARACTERS FOR MY NOVELS

Yes, I do have a 'type' of man. Must haves generally include dark hair, striking blue eyes, chiseled body with chest hair and...one can only hope...a crisp tiger line (look it up, ladies!). I prefer my men around 5'10" to 6'5". Nice, lickable lips are nice. A hard, tight rump. Thick thighs and hairy legs. Cute feet. Necks that say they intimately know how to bridge. Ears that don't stick out like Dumbo's is a must. Perfect age range: 35-40. The following men really fit the bill. What do YOU think?
