When You Need a Hero . . . just look around you. Heroes come in all shapes and sizes and aren’t limited to skin color. A hero is as close as your own backyard or as far as your imagination takes you.
From Linda—–
My hero must have a broad chest and love animals. *sigh* I also like my hero to be gentle yet strong.
Hero # 9
Hero #10
From Phyliss————
When you need a real man . . . look no farther than #11. His name is Nathan and he was the cover model for two of our anthologies. Number 12 is a bit different and much, much harder. I had to look VERY carefully at each of them for a full day to decide which one I liked best. Well, that didn’t work, because there was no way to tell which was the hunkiest, so you get four for the price of one. Enjoy!
Hero # 12
Hero # 11

What a hard decision to make today. I like #9 and #12. I’m going to go with #9.

#9 gets my vote.

I am not a fan of bare-chested guys. There, I said it. But I am a fan of bad boys and #11 looks like one for me. So I will go with him.
Love the long hair look though. That made the decision harder.
Peace, Julie

CLUTCH MY PEARLS!!! I need to stick my head in the ice box after looking over these hotties. I’ll go with #12 for reasons that should be obvious. :o)
And thanks Fillies this is a fun week!

What a hard choice! ;) #12 is really tempting but I think I will choose #9.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 6:06 am.
OOH! OOH! I just noticed we could vote more than once! So, I’ll put in a vote for #11. Not only is he nice to look at, but Nathan is the hero’s name in my current ms.

I have to choose #11 because it wasn’t easy for me to take my eyes off him on the cover to read Give Me A Texan.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 6:24 am.
More excellent choices, Fillies! Each day gets a bit harder. (any meaning you want there IS intended :) )As my friends know, I can have a somewhat different view of heroes and today #10 is my hero.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 6:41 am.
I’d have to say # 10
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 6:52 am.
I like 10 – maybe because as we ‘mature’ (read: I’m an old broad) you realize that you have to be able to actually TALK to them every once in awhile! ;)
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 7:07 am.
No question here, #10. I am so boring, have never been a fan of beefcake. He looks like the kind of dependable man who would be by your side when you needed him and someone to spend years watching sunsets with.
Great selection of books today. All but one are on my wish list, and that one I already have.
Great fun this week.

I also like Hero # 10. He looks more sensitive yet masculine. I love the long hair and his relaxed manner. Beautiful cheek bones!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 7:30 am.
Today’s decision was tough…I like them all! But I will have to go with Nathan #11.
:-)
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 7:30 am.
I have to vote for #11 Nathan. He has been the face (and BODY) of so many romance heroes in the books I have read. He has been on a whole bunch of book covers!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 7:54 am.
Don’t think I could go past #10; looks like he has a interesting story to tell.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 7:59 am.
Going with # 11 today.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 8:02 am.
#9 gets my vote. :)
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 8:35 am.
#12 all I could say was WOW
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 8:41 am.
tough I like the looks of #9…don’t know why but I also like the looks of # 10…so hard to pick!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 9:09 am.
#10… wasn’t done gawking at him when my electricity flashed off. Is that a warning not to fall in lust with a hunk? LOL
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 10:38 am.
I am sorry but I just have to go with 12 the more the better to choose from. Just look at all of them. Although 11 looks good also and I have admired him on several books. Maybe I just want them all.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 10:43 am.
I am going for #11.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 11:16 am.
Have to go with #9.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 11:17 am.
I can’t decided it is a tie between 10 and 11 if you put them together I would be a happy women!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 12:00 pm.
Fun contest, great books! I completely agree with Patricia B, and for all the same reasons I choose #10!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 12:32 pm.
I am leaning towards #9…
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 12:35 pm.
A tough decision but I am going to go with hero #9. i trust the other heroes won’t be lonely for long, it looks like plenty of ladies have different picks. I also want my hero to be strong, yet have a tender side. These two traits along makes him pretty irresistible.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 1:58 pm.
Has to #11–Nathan Kamp! Not just for this gorgeous cover, but for an overall fantastic “body” of work ; )
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 2:25 pm.
Okay, you are not playing fair with picture #12 lol. But I am going to pick #10. I’ve always loved long hair on men (at least the ones that can carry it off and he definitely can) and I can just imagine he looks just as good with his shirt off lol.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 2:47 pm.
Hard choices, but # 10 for sure. Long dark hair does it for me, too, catslady.
But each is magnificent in his own right. Hubba hubba. oxxo
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 2:58 pm.
I choose # 11.
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 3:00 pm.
hands down #9. #12 sort of looks like the same guy in different posses
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 3:33 pm.
I have to say hero #12 though from a quick scan it looks like #9 is in the lead. I like my heroes tall with lots of hard angles. :)
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 3:44 pm.
# 11 it is! looks like a bad boy to me!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 3:54 pm.
10!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 3:54 pm.
I would have to say #10 but I would really like to say all of them…HaHa.
Thanks for such great fun

I like them all but #9 comes with a saddle and probably a horse!
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 5:00 pm.
I missed this entire thing–sorry. I can only say one name–Hugh Jackman. Celia
Posted on September 28, 2011 at 7:31 pm.
I love the looks of #10….sensitive…..he looks like he would care tenderly for a woman.
