Okay, so here’s what I’m thinking. My Provincetown Series for Dreamspinner is plotted and planned out. Well, for the most part. The first book When Love Takes Over comes out August/September, and a novella spinoff of the P-town series Chasing the Sun comes out October/November of this year. The last two books of the series will be out at the beginning of 2014. So like I said the P-town series is pretty much locked and loaded.
But it’s time to plan my new series, which I won’t go into too much detail about. Just yet. However, while I was looking for inspiration for my new MCs, I had an idea.
Why not let the readers be a part of the process? That’s when I came up with the idea for this contest.
The Process
Every week during the month of May, I will do a post where I share pictures of five hot guys who have, um, sparked inspiration for me. All of you will be given the chance to vote for your favorite picture. The voting will stay open for one week.
I will tally up the votes and announce the winner of the previous poll when I open up the following week’s poll, which will contain, you guessed it, five more sinsperational pictures.
During the first week of June, I will then do a post with the four lucky winners from the previous weeks. That’s when the bloodbath shall begin. Readers will vote for the guy they think should be my muse for my next book, and the picture with the most votes will win!
How much fun will that be?
But that’s not all. With every contest, there must be a winner! That winner will be determined during the FINAL ROUND.
The Winner
During the final round, while the final four hotties are battling it out for your votes, all you need to do to enter is leave a comment on the FINAL ROUND post. From those commenters, a winner will be chosen, and that winner will get to name one of the main characters of the new series.
Not only do you lovely readers get to help choose my inspiration, but one of you will get the chance to name a character and see that name used in a book.
So, without further ado, let round one begin! (Click on the thumbnails to see each man in all his glory) 🙂

Well this is a nice contest teehee :-)No hardship here 🙂
Leaundra,
I think it is. I know I’m having a blast seeing which stud makes it to the finish line!
Definitely #5. Beautiful, hot, sexy, alluring and the hair..something about a guy with long hair that is of the charts HOT!
He’s definitely a hottie, Jason. He’s also currently in the lead!
Number 5 totally does it for me, but it was a difficult choice with the other contenders being so studly too! I look forward to the next batch…hahaha
He’s doing it for other people too, CM! He’s currently, um, on top. 😀
Well, I finally picked, but damn…that was a tough decision! Can’t wait to see who makes it to the next round!
I can’t either. My other studs are ready to go next week. Their chomping at the bit. Luckily, I have lots of apples for them. 😛
Well my guy is #3, he is in a close 3rd place!!!!
Yes, he is, Jackie! Who knows what will happen? I’m excited!
I voted does that mean I get to console the non-winners 🙂
Sure, they’ll need some gentle strokes before bed. 😀
I am a huge fan of Number 5! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
People are agreeing with you, Emily! I hope you voted for him!
Okay, it was close but I finally narrowed it down and picked the stud with the gun tattoo, which should totally be the title of a book. 🙂
Haha! That would be an awesome title, Lisa!
It was a tough decision…but the stubble wins every time. I do hope you have some kilts in our voting future. Kilts (and bare chests) are very inspiring.
You’ll have to wait and see, Melissa. 🙂
Oh and I agree. Stubble = GRRRRR!
Kilts, bare chests, & stubble…what more do you need?
Hmmm. A big bed comes to mind!
See…it practically writes itself 🙂
Stud #5 was my second choice, but I certainly wouldn’t throw any of them out!! (Stud #2 was my #1!)
They are all yummy!
mmm, scruff and a tattoo. I’m going with #2.
He’s in the lead, Jen!
They are all mighty sexy but I do enjoy a scruffy man! Can’t wait to see what the choices are next week!
They are pretty fine, Rissa. At least in my humble opinion. 🙂
It’s on like donkey kong!!! Now let the games begin on which hawtness will represent!!! 😀
Amen, Maryln!
#2 please and thank you. There is just something about those eyes.
Did you vote using the buttons up above? That’s how the results are being tallied. If not, feel free to do so before next week.
Definitely #5. Love the gun tat!
He’s quite popular, Jennifer. 😀
Dammit! Difficult. But then I’m sure you meant it to be 🙂
Eyes just ‘do it’ for me!
Voted! with *hugs*
But it’s a fun kinda difficult, isn’t it, Carole-Ann?
Stud #4, you sweet innocent boy, let me corrupt you. I am a sucker for a baby-face.
Corrupt him, Tedi! 😉
I voted on stud #4 🙂 Love to vote in this challange and see who win hehehe.
Thanks for voting, Helle! I can’t wait to see what happens either!
