Favorite Actor
Who is your favorite actor and actress?
On the lighter side what actor do you like and could they play a part in your book?
I suppose at one time I had a favorite actor. Now I can’t even name very many. If I were to cast the characters in my books I would have to defer to my girls for choices. How about you, do you follow certain actors?

BLURB
A regal beauty with raven hair and piercing blue eyes, Fayth Graham is unwilling to parade herself in front of the wealthy Lords of England during the season. Seeking a means to dissuade any man wishing to wed her, she seeks a way to ruin herself for marriage. When she unexpectedly meets a man with sparkling gray eyes and an infectious grin, she decides this is the man who will keep her from agreeing to obey.
He returned from six months at sea, looking for a few nights of pleasure with a willing lass, but Jarret Kinsley got more than he bargained for when he met a beautiful debutant who responded to his kisses with a wild innocence that touched his heart. Yet the obstacles looming between them might rip them apart. Both had vowed never to marry, so when consequences of their dalliances got in the way, Jarret would have to choose between the life he’s always desired and the woman he loves more than life.
I don’t really have a favorite actor, but there is an actor whom one of my characters is built on. His name is Scott Bakula, currently best known for NCIS New Orleans character Dwayne Pride. He is the pattern that Denis Rosa was built on for ROCKY POINT ROAD. Never met the guy, no idea what he’s like, but the characters I have seen him play are close to what I wanted Denis to be. Denis is easygoing but hard as a rock, likes to cook and drink, likes music, is a bit of a punching bag for bad guys, is moral and driven to find out what happened to his wife, even though they had been separated for many years before her death. It helps me to have a picture in my mind of the character, especially when I “talk” to him as I fall asleep at night. Also I think Denis is good-looking, although I never provided a physical description of him to the readers. Not Tyrone Power or Bradley Cooper, but better than average. I’ve always had a hankering to send Scott Bakula a copy of the book, but I’ve never figured out how to do that.
There are a few actors I admire for their acting skills and roles in movies. Anthony Hopkins, Mogan Freeman, Nicholas Cage and Clint Eastwood. Other than Nicholas Cage, the other actors would be too old for any of my protagonist in the four novels published by RPP. There is another actor, John Travolta, who could play David Belmont, an ER doctor in Sudden Blindness and John Randall, a prison doctor in Frozen Death. The two novels take place in Ocala, Florida and would be an ideal role for John Tklravolta sine he and his wife live in Ocala, about a mile from where my wife and I live. Nicholas Cage would be ideal for the protagonist in Strange, due to be published June 15, 2018 by RPP.
