Welcome to my stop on the Six-Pack Stud-A-Thon Blog Hop & Giveaway!!! I have two fantastic men that are cover models, CJ Hollenbach and Nick Soto that I'll be showcasing here. Both CJ and Nick have given me permission to post pictures from websites and facebook pages.
Let's face it, we all like to look at those smexy book covers. When you're shopping in a book store or online, what grabs your attention to a book? What influences you to then buy that book? For me, the first thing I notice is the cover, if I like it, then I read the blurb. If the cover doesn't grab me, then I'm probably not even going to pick it up to read the blurb. There are some authors for me that are auto-buy and it doesn't matter about the cover. Do you let friends influence you book choices? What about reviews?
Some of my favorite CJ covers.
You just gotta love a man with long blond hair, gorgeous eyes and rock hard abs. Can you say yummy????
The first time I ever saw a picture of CJ was on Between Your Sheets website. There were several photos of cover models and it was a public vote for a favorite. The first thing I said was, "Who the hell is the that?"
I don't think the pictures had the models' names, but I really don't remember. I voted for CJ. Then I joined a yahoo group and met Mary and DCL Publications. I quickly found out who that gorgeous long blond hunk was. CJ Hollenbach.
I then got the opportunity to attend the Romantic Times Convention in Pittsburgh. I so wanted to met CJ, but was kinda scared at the same time. I mean this man is awesome!! What would I say to him? What would he think about me? I finally got to see CJ in person and almost fell on the floor in a dead faint. CJ is so freakin' HAWT in pictures, but in person, he's phenomenal. CJ was talking to someone when I approached him and when he was finished, I introduced myself. I was hugged instantly, and his smile was magnificent. We talked for a little bit, and when I was able to walk again, I moved away and sat at a nearby table. I don't know what I was worried about. CJ is sweet, friendly, funny and just great to talk to. I love that man,
he's just exceptional.
Golden Adonis is is such an awesome cover. CJ's eyes seem like they can see into your soul. And there's that strong chin, Oh My!, I just want to lick it. And lay my head on his chest. *big sigh*
I so look forward to seeing CJ at any conference I'm able to attend. He just has a way of making you feel so good. He's genuinely happy to see you and just talk about anything. That's one of the other things I love about CJ. He's so down to earth and very approachable and fun to hang out with. I'm really looking forward to seeing CJ in October! I can't wait.
The one thing I will say about CJ is that he is all class!
I have a t-shirt that CJ once wore for just a few minutes, I like to smell it,
hug it and sleep with it. Makes me feel like........ ummmm, errrrr..... you know what I mean. *blushing*
This unbelievably handsome man is Nick Soto. I first met Nick in 2011 at EC's Romanticon. He was a new Caveman. I spent a lot of time just looking at all that hunkiness that is Nick.
This is my all time favorite cover with Nick. I just can't explain it, but this is so sexy and those abs just scream at me to lick them. And those sunglasses just make him the ultimate bad boy!
And this cover??? OH EM GEE!!! I'm going to have to buy this book when it comes out in print so I can sleep with it under my pillow.
I was pretty speechless when I first saw this cover the other day. If this is what's waiting in ecstasy, you can sacrifice me to it any time and the quicker the better. GAWD I just want to squeeze those butt cheeks.
Oh please, spank me! I really like this cover too, it's so smexilicious.
I just made up my own word! heheh
Last year's EC's Romanticon, it seemed like Nick came out of his shell a little bit, that he was a little more comfortable at the conference. He led a Zumba class on Saturday. I wasn't able to participate, but I so enjoyed watching Nick dance! I could watch him dance forever. Nick's smile and energy are infectious, and before you know it, you just want to get up there and join in.

CJ is writing a book. I can't wait to see it. I hope everyone will check it out when it's available. It will have to be fantastic because CJ wrote it!!!
