Cynthia Cooke Guest Blogs!

Welcome to my blog! Today, I have an exciting and entertaining guest post from author Cynthia Cooke.....Let's just say, ladies, you don't want to miss this! Let's get to it. I'm going to scoot on over and let Cynthia have the floor. 

Oh, and there's also a review posted today for Cynthia's book, Deadly Secrets, Loving Lies. It's in another post!

The Avengers

How is it possible that I could have been so clueless about the earth’s mightiest heroes? I was. But not anymore. After 2 hours and 22 minutes in the theater watching these incredible hunky men fighting the good fight across the big screen, I am determined to go back and watch every one of their movies. But the big question I’ve been asking myself since the credits rolled across the screen, which powerful, crime-fighting super-hero do I like the best? How to decide when there are so many options to consider! But I’ve narrowed it down to the following:

Best Butt: Captain America, hands down!

I wish I could find that image from the beginning of the movie when Captain America is punching the sandbags and they give us this incredible butt shot. You’ll just have to go see it in the movie for yourselves (across the big screen!). Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

But of course, Captain America is so much more than a fantastic sexy body! He’s the do-gooder on the show. A good soldier to the end, always following the rules, always has your back. In fact, he’s a lot like my hero, Kyle Montgomery, in my latest release – Deadly Secrets, Loving Lies. They’re both drop dead gorgeous with a heart of gold. And they NEVER run away from a fight.

Best Dreamy eyes: Stark —The Iron Man

What can we say? He’s gorgeous. He’s charismatic. He’s uber wealthy. And best of all he’s not afraid to be the one to risk everything to save the world. He’s brave and courageous and wins us over with his “what the hell” attitude! And he’s brilliant, of course!! ;D

Best Throw-Me-Over-Your-Shoulder and Take-Me-To-Your-Bed Right-This-Second: Thor

Please! Need I say more?

And then most Vulnerable: Dr. Banner – The Hulk, of course.

He had me at – I’m always angry. Love this guy.

One of the best scenes in the movies is when The Hulk starts throwing Loki around like a rag doll! Brilliant.

And, of course, I know for a fact this moving wouldn’t have rocked as well as it had without huge Kudos to the Amazing Joss Whedon. If you haven’t seen this movie—run, don’t walk. Though, I must confess, I’ve yet to see Iron man or Thor, though you can bet they’re on the top of my must-see movies now!!

I must admit of thinking about these men, thinking about all men and what makes them so fascinating, so sexy, and how can we display the character traits we love about them best in our books. Personally, I love that alpha guy who is always so in control, until the heroine gets under his skin and then he gets so flustered he doesn’t know what to do with himself. The rule follower who breaks all the rules for the woman he loves. That’s who Kyle Montgomery is, hero of Deadly Secrets, Loving lies.

So, inquiring minds want to know! Which one of these guys would you want to see as the hero in your next can’t-put-down read? Tough choice, I know!!

Deadly Secrets, Loving Lies

Excerpt —

Kyle stared in disbelief at the odd, mushroom-shaped
structure rising up from the cracked, dry earth of the
Nevada desert.
“There she is,” the voice of Johnny Garino, his crew
chief and closest friend, buzzed in his earpiece.
Genie stood on the roof of the strange house. Three
black SUVs were corralled on the ground far below her.
She looked incredible, breathtaking, silhouetted against
the brilliant blue sky. Kyle sucked in a breath as she
clipped a cable to her belt.
“She’s getting ready to fly!” Johnny called out, his
voice rising in pitch.
“Hold on, baby. I’m almost there.” Kyle pushed down
on the throttle urging the bird faster, even as he willed
Genie to turn and see him, to hold on until he could sweep
her away from the danger.
And once he did, once he had her safe and secure in
his cockpit, then what?
Then he’d try not to kill her himself.
