MANCANDY MONDAY! The place where the hot guys go

Posted on January 6, 2014January 5, 2014 by Z. Elizabeth

Every Monday, Blame It On The Book Lovers will be discussing their favourite book boyfriend of that week in a meme called MANCANDY MONDAY!

We all love book boyfriends, so Man Candy Monday is all about sharing the love…and the hot guys around by letting everyone know the book boyfriend you have been swooning over this last week, and why!

Once you’ve posted your mancandy on your own blog, come back and post the link. We all want to know WHO your mancandy is this week and swoon right along with you.

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Jack Carter from The Game series by J.Sterling

Will Grant is my Jack Fucking Carter

Jack Carter is like marmite. You either love him or hate him and at times I was both. The Perfect Game gave me a hernia and i was shouting at Jack, telling him how much of an ass he was, how much of a dick he was and then in The Game Changer, he redeemed himself and i fell in love with him all over again, and then in The Sweetest Mistake, you want to smash his face in but you kind of understand why hes acting like that but then he is our Jack Carter when he gets his ass handed to him and he’s back to himself then.

If you look past the whole situation that went down, Jack Carter is a flirty, cheeky chap who happens to be amazing at baseball. He has his quirks, he loves Cassie with everything and he will do whatever he can to prove it to her, every single day of his life, as long as he has her by his side, that is all her wants. He loves her, dotes on her, adores her until his last breathe (he doesnt die, dont worry) and he would go to the end of the world just to be with her. His love for her is overpowering and its something that makes you stop and think “I want this love.”

For everything this couple have gone through, their love has stayed strong and they get past everything and take each day at a time. Yes they make mistakes but its never enough to break them and The Sweetest Game is the cutest ending to the series you could get.

You watch them years later, and Jack is still utterly besotted and so in love with Cassie that he knows the decision he is about to make is the right one and i commend him for that. Jack is one hell of an amazing guy and for those who have get to meet the swoon-worthy and dangerous baseball player who loves his Kitten fiercely, then get to reading this series!

SPOILER AHEAD…if you havent read April Fools then read at your own risk 😉

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Brody Adams from April Fools – Karli Perrin

My Brody is Dan Conn

Yes, yes, he doesnt have two arm sleves but pfft. This guy is who i imagine as Brody, so just imagine him with another arm full of tattoos.

So we were introduced to this hunk of a man in April Fools (#2). Brody is Aprils older brother. He is filled to the brim with tattoos. He drives a motorbike, he’s cocky, flirty and sexy, he attracts a hoard of women, and he’s in a band and plays guitar but underneath that is a brother who adores his sister, who comes to visit her to see she is okay after her house fire. You can see that they have a close relationship and they love each other a lot. They have been through a lot with their mother and that is enough to make siblings close.

I loved Brody from the get-go. He really is sweet, despite the things that come out of his mouth, and you can see that he just wants to make sure April is okay and she is now safe. They banter and argue like any brother and sister do, but they also habour the pain of their alcoholic mother, whom Brody now tries to look after since April moved away to university.

Brody approves of Isaac, and can see he is good for his little sister and while staying with April, he begins to fall for April’s roommate and friend Lucy. I loved the two of them together, their banter, the jealousy but when Brody;s band gets signed up, he has to leave. There is a point in the book, at the end, where you know something has hapened between Lucy and Brody, as Lucy habours something from Brody close to her heart. I would love a bookon these two, to see what happened behind the scenes we didnt see and also to see what happened in the months Brody was away as their conversation seemed to just stop.

There is always room for another bad boy with a soft exterior underneath, and Brody is that!

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Brent Mason from Asking For Trouble – Tessa Bailey

Okay, so THIS guy (I have no idea who he is….Google doesnt either) is my Brent.

IF you know me, you will know that i am obsessed with Tessa Bailey and her series. Daniel from Officer Off Limits was a firm favouite of mine…but Brent has slowly knocked him off the top spot…only by a smidge though. I wouldnt mind a Daniel, me and Brent sandwich 😉

Brent is a cocky asshole. He says what he wants, he doesn’t really give a shit either because, well, he’s the shit and he has the dirtiest mouth ever! Oh the things that come out of that mouth….. He submits to Hayden’s demands for control and to be fair, he was bloody turned on by this little minx and this game they were ultimately playing at first.

You see Brent shine through, you see how much his family mean to him, how much he supports them, so much so, he’s a blooming gorgeous grease monkey too! You start to see a different side to Brent too. One that Hayden doesn’t want to see as she just wants to see Brent for what she’s used to, but little by little, both walls are falling and they both begin to feel more than hate for each other the more they get to know one another. But with Brent and Hayden, they don’t tell each other their feelings and just fight and argue all the time, despite secret intense feelings for one another.

I loved watching his journey with Hayden, loved how he calls her ‘Ice Princess’ due to her upbringing, but also how he has always found her attractive just has never done anything about it, until she begins to play a game. He’s a protective teddy bear who submits but can also dish out the dom side. We watch his feelings change and grow for Hayden, watch him do anything to have her, and that ending. OH GOD, i was hoping to god he would get there in time and stop it and never let her go!

This is why Brent is my mancandy monday this week. Give him to me any day of the week!!

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Liam Brody from the HDU/Dirt books by India Lee

My Liam is Matt Lanter

In HDU, Liam is kind of a playboy, and is slated by Amanda on the gossip site HDU. After really wanting a part in a big movie, he tracks down Amanda by email, and gives her a proposition to help him leave behind the womanizer image and give him the one-women image, whilst helping Amanda leave behind her crappy life and hometown and start again.

Liam is saracastic, he can banter with Amanda but underneath it all, hes a cutie. He didnt stray once from the ‘fake relationship’ and you could actually see him grow – he began to appreciate Amanda and their fakeness and he was becoming a new man, leaving his past behind him. The more time they spent together, it was clear to see feelings were changing for both of them. He truly cared about her and only wanted the best for her, that’s why when the contract ended, he let her go, even though it obviously pained him to do so. It proved that something had changed in both of them and it was real between them now, it just couldn’t happen…not yet anyway.

That all happened in HDU (and as my review for Dirt is scheduled for Saturday, i’ll say a little about Liam next)

So you need to read HDU to know what happens in the end, but yes, it is a HEA. Liam and Amanda have stopped the fakeness and are the real deal. You can see how happy they are together now, how in love they are and how sweet they are. Liam is patient with Amanda and will do anything for her. When it comes to a big scene, Amanda decides that Liam is better off without her, and goes back home but EEEEEEE the love Liam has for her, omg, seriously, you will fall in love with him so much. Because he is the most amazing character i have read in while and hes changed so much and grown so much over the two books. He even does something so big that you will clearly see that Amanda is the end game for him. (and no, its not proposing).

So yes, Liam Brody, the sexy Hollywood star, is my Mancandy Monday this week.

Come and share your MANCANDY in the comments below for all of us to perve on 😉

Mancandy Monday, Olivia Cunning

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Jace Seymour from the Sinner on Tour series by Olivia Cunning.

Alex Pettyfer is my Jace

Jace Seymour. What can I say about you? You are the bassist of Sinners, the quiet one, the reserved one, the one who doesnt really say anything but underneath all that he is fighting his past. He needs to feel pain to make it go away and to remind him of who he was and what he did. None of the band really know who he is and thats becuase he fears they will throw him out and the band means everything to him, so he keeps quiet.

He doesn’t crave attention like the other members, he’s just there to play great music.

He likes pain, as I;ve already mentioned. He visits Doms to make them cuase him pain and one espeically named Aggie. Although Aggie started off as his Dom, they fall in love and that scares Jace, who in turn tries to push her away, to much avail, he doesnt. She lets him now its okay to open up to her about his past.

Because of his past, Jace also feels that he’s not good enough. Not good enough for the band, not good enough to be loved; none of this is true. The band absolutely adore him and only tease him because they love him and this proves that he is loved by everyone in his life. As he didn’t really have a childhood, he had to grow up fast and so by all the teasing, he feels that he’s not wanted, but that is not true and Aggie eventually gets through to him that the band love him and that’s why they tease him.

Your heart will break at Jaces past but you will feel proud of him for opening up and overcoming them with the help of Aggie, who is there every step of the way. He begins stronger, he begins to talk more and express his opinions to the band and you can see just how much the band love him, how it wouldnt be the Sinners without Jace.

So this is why Jace is my Mancandy this week. He overcomes so much in this book that my heart clung to him and now it wont let go. Not that i would want that to, because Jace is such a bloody cutie that he deserves a hell of a lot of love!

If you haven’t read the utterly sexy series that is Sinners of Tour, then check out my reviews HERE.

(the forth book is currently being read, as they were published out of order due to the publishers thinking Trey’s books would be more popular being published 3rd, as his book was last. But now they are all out, there’s no need to not read them ;). Anyway, my review of book 4 should be posted this week or next)

My co-blogger is taking a few weeks off from blogging, but if you are participating, then definitely leave your links in the comments so we can all see your sexy Mancandy!!

This week The Book Lovers is featuring *SPOILER* Nash Davenport from the UHMAZING Bad Boys series by the great M.Leighton.

YES! Charlie Hunnam is DEFINITELY Nash!

So Nash is my Mancandy this week and SERIOUSLY how can he not be? Okay so i love his brother Cash, but after reading Everything For Us, well Nash kind of overtook Cash by a little bit…Okay a lot.

The reason Nash is my mancandy? He has been through SO much since he was supposed to be ‘dead’. He has been at sea for seven years, done things that he wouldn’t wish upon anyone just to survive and has seen things you wouldn’t wish on anyone. He was just a kid when he was ‘sent’ away and now hes back, hes changed – as you would. Hes tough, hes rough and he feels nothing for no one. His feelings revolve around anger and revenge for the people who killed his mother and ruin his life.

But over time and in the book, we see his exterior falter, we see him begin to care and begin to let his guard down around Marissa. He reveals things about his life that he has never told anyone, which in turn means his numbness is slowly breaking down and he’s beginning to feel things that he hasn’t in years.

The more time he spends with Marissa, the more he is beginning to fall for her, yet the both of them are just clueless to each others feelings. Nash is slowly integrating back into society and he is falling in love with Marissa. She is the reason he is feeling and he wants to be with her.

Nash truly is an amazing character. From everything that has happens in his life, from the anger he has felt for years to wanting to get his revenge and then to unlocking feelings that he never thought would happen to falling for Marissa, well he certainly does change over the course of the book and you will most definitely fall in love with him throughout it, especially at the end!!

So i present my Mancandy as Nash this week.

If you have yet to read the Bad Boy Series, then here is the order (Goodreads links):

Down To You
Up To Me
Everything For Us

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Danny from Just Human by my awesome friend Kerry Heavens

Of course, who else would be Danny but Paul Walker!!

Danny is my mancandy this week because you cannot help but fall in love with him throughout Just Human (and more so in Still Human – seriously, i cannot wait for you all to read it)

Danny has liovd Liv since they were kids, but when he moved away, they both had their hearts broken and never really let love in. One Facebook encounter and its like they both have never been apart. Danny is the utmost amazing book character ever. He’s beyond kind, sweet, sexy and loves Liv with every fiber of his very being. He will literally do anything for her and to be with her forever.

He’s a cutie, and he is human. He has insecurities and fears but the one thing is is certain of is being with Liv. He cant live without her again and he most definitely doesn’t plan to. She is a sure and permanent future in his life once again and shes going nowhere.

Together, He and Liv are awesome. They are a great couple and you just know that they are end game. They are each other’s One. They bring out the best in each other and you can see the love they have for one another, even if they are scared something will happened to break it.

Danny is just too much that you cant help but want him to be real and your own boyfriend, but for now, we will have to just be grateful we have him in book form!

Check out who Laura has chosen for her MANCANDY MONDAY guy 🙂

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Richard ‘Rusty’ Thorne from Seven Sexy Sins by Serenity Woods

Stefano Masciolini is my Rusty

So it was really damn hard to find a ginger guy – where are they? – but i think this guy represents Rusty in my opinion.

Rusty Thorne is one hell of a brilliant character, hence why he is my mancandy this week. He’s got curly, rusty hair, hence the nickname and green eyes. He’s a history teacher and he absolutely loves his friends. Especially Faith. Only problem is nothing can happen with Faith as her brother Dan, is one of his best friends. But Faith has been commissioned to write a series of magazine articles on spicing up your love life. She’s got the theme—the “Seven Sexy Sins”—but there’s one major problem. She hasn’t experienced any of them.

This is where the sexy Rusty offers up his services but Faith needs him to sign a contract – they have sex seven times in part with with sins and Dan cant find out about this arrangement. So his new alias on the blog is Beau.

Rusty will steal your heart but he has insecurities. The men in his family are less than men and for that, he doesn’t drink, he doesn’t want a serious relationship in fear of turning out like his relatives and hurting the ones he loves. So it’s easier for him to just jump from one girl to the next. Not getting attached to them.

Then he volunteered to help Faith out and that is when everything inside him started to change. Never one for love, his feelings over the weeks, after the intensity of their sins and the sex really took a hold on him. It had him questioning everything about love. He was nervous and unsure whether he had made the right decision in helping Faith out, but when she said something so filthy to him, all that zoomed out of his head and all he could see was this gorgeous woman in front of him.

Over time, you could definitely see the emotions changing for both of them from lust to love. The romance didn’t come easy for them, because they know all about their pasts and doubted themselves about what they were doing yet you could really see just how attracted to each other they were and in time, they did become comfortable in doing the sins and being around each other in a sexual situation.

Rusty is definitely book boyfriend material and for that, he is MINE for this week. You literally cannot read this book without him stealing a piece of your heart and wanting him to help you with all these scenes…maybe not with the mars bar though 😉 hahahha….okay, maybe with the mars bar…

Now head over to Blame It On The Rain’s blog and check out who she has picked as her Mancandy!

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Ben Chambers from The Art of Letting Go – Anna Bloom

Sean O’Pry is my Ben Chambers

So The Art Of letting Go is out on September 25th 2013 and because Anna is blooming (see what i did there) amazing and she is a lover of my blog and a good friend, she sent me a copy of her debut novel 2 months before release. I, apart from her editor and herself, are the only people who have read it – how lucky am i?

Anyways this week my mancandy is Ben Chambers. Black hair, cornflower blue eyes, freckles, smoker, guitarist, singer, cook. The list could go on. You all will fall for this guy. He is the most amazing character and says the most amazing things to Lilah. Well, he has been searching for her for 9 months!

He’s sweet and caring and lovely (if not a little shy with attention) and there are things that you will just swoon over, and make your ovaries explode. You will cry over him, laugh over the things he says, love the banter and sarcasm between him and Lilah. You will want him to dedicate songs to you, take you up against trees and in ally-ways ;). He really is the perfect guy and he will steal your heart away.

You will have to read The Art Of Letting Go when it is out because it is refreshing, and so different to all the books I’ve read. It’s a 5 star from me and i will most definitely be rereading this book again and again.

There are so many things i want to spoil for you, but i wont. You will just have to see just how much i love Ben when the book is out. Like seriously, you will just want to marry this guy. I have dibs in him though. He loves Lilah so much that he would never want to let her go. What happens in the book – well he will take whatever time he can to be/spend with Lilah and it just makes you appreciate just how brilliant this character is and how much you wish he was real.

I literally cannot wait until you read this book. EEEEEEEEEEE!!

NOW go over to my Co-Blogger Laura’s blog and check out who she has picked to as her MANCANDY MONDAY

This week The Book Lovers is featuring Griffin from the Thoughtless series by S.C Stephens.

Yes, Griffin is Chris Hemsworth but its pretty damn hard to imagine him as anyone else when you follow Griffin on twitter. Plus I spent ages trying to find someone else suitable but that didnt happen hahah.

The very first time Griffin appeared i was just floored. I loved him in that instance. He’s just one massive dirty mouthed man whore and he really is so freaky funny. I couldnt stop pissing myself over his comment to Kiera and making her uncomfortable. Pure brillance from him part.

He walks around like he owns the place, like every girl should be begging to have a piece of him and have a ride on his Hulk. He’s a cocky son of a bitch and the more he appeared and made Keira uncomfortable and the more he was dirty mouthed, the more i was just falling for this bassist.

But despite all this, you really do see him grow. Especially when Anna – Keira’s sister is involved now. You see him stop his man whoring ways, the comments and actions still continue though but he’s found someone just like him, someone who can give him talk back, can keep up with him and just someone to love all of him.

I just pretty much love Griffin. You would want him to grope you when you walk past him…despite probably giving him evils after but in Effortless/Reckless, he’s such so sweet and smitten with his daughter and Anna and he will completely take half of your heart. (Kellan has the other half)

HAD to get a pic of Chris/Griffin with his daughter. Swoon what is it with men and holding children that make your ovaries explode?

NOW go over to my Co-Blogger Laura’s blog and check out who she has picked to as her MANCANDY MONDAY
