Dear Minions
Your mission:
I don’t care who you have to stalk, who you have to threaten, who you have to smex or even if you have to sacrifice your entire tbr to the cause.
I. Don’t. Care.
Just find him. And, more importantly, find me more piccies.
That is all.
Your Leader in Awesomeness,
Kris.
Kris + Books = Good. *Sometimes*. 
Kate Perry, wasn't she kissing a girl and liking it? Oh, wait, not her.
I think he's slightly photoshopped so it's unlikey we'll find him. However I'm willing to give my body in the name of your pleasure. Well, not THAT way, but you know, to someone else, without boobies.
you have a crush on blonde?
Dear god talk about Mission Impossible {skips over to Google images}
One Diana Luger designed the cover. Cover art is by Franco Accornero.
He does loads and loads of romance covers
Tam: Photoshop?? Are you trying to kill my fantasies dead in one fell swoop?! *pouts*
*writes down Tam will sell organs*
Katiebabs chook: *blushes* Maybe a little.
Smokinhotbooks: The sacrifices you are making for little ol' me. *sniffles* I'm so touched.
Ingrid: O_O Do you know who the model is then? Do you?? Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me!!!! Pretty please. I'll love you forever and ever.
Geesh, I thought you were the researcher. I looked at some sites that mention Franco. I only got to understand he uses live models. So he is “real”. he is also the one who gave us Fabian
Here is an interview : http://www.likesbooks.com/covrcol11.html
Kris,
you have great taste in men. But I'm sorry if I find him you have to share…. or at least send me the video after I've packed him up nice and tight and put him in your christmas stocking 🙂
Ingrid: *points in the vague direction of NL* Minion. *points at self* Leader. That means that I don't have to do any work and that you have to do my bidding.
Thank you for the link, Minion, and confirmation that The Blond Goodness is real. That makes up a very little for your questioning of my orders.
Tish: He's pretty, isn't he. *sighs*
Sharing!! *glares* Don't even think about it or I'll be having a little word in the ear of a certain biker hubby.
Kris,
you will think twice about the whole sharing thing because I just emailed Hatchette books and asked them for his name LOL! I am to bloody old and ugly to have any shame LOLOLOL! I'll let you know if they reply 😉
tish
I always wonder if you point in a eastern or western direction
Tish! lolololololololololololololol You're my hero!
Ingrid: Go west! *Life is peaceful there.*
Ew, but he's not even cute!
Are you mental?! Look at that profile! He's gorgeous!
Kris,
I emailed a couple of friends and they said to try a guy by the name of….. wait whats it worth 😉
tish
Ooooo, you're a meanie!
What's it worth?? How 'bout I not tell Sean to tear up the D&D postcard that you just won. Would that work??
OOHH AAAHHHH did I get it right? The D&D thing? He's a dirty little ssssllllluuu.. omething. But I love the way his mind works. hehehehe.
Okay, the only name I got back was Paul Marron. It seems he's the cover boy of the moment. But looking at his piccies I'm not sure. (although I wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating.. well anything he bloody well likes LOL)I will wait and see if Hachette writes back before really putting my two cents in
tish
You and Tam both won with the tree smexing scene. 🙂
Okay, I just googled Paul Marron and can't really see the resemblance mys-… wait on… maybe this one… [IMG]http://i832.photobucket.com/albums/zz244/krisngoodbooks/pm.jpg[/IMG]
Scramble, Minions, Scramble. We need confirmation asap!
Kris,
Paul Marron is on the another kate perry book… marked by passion. But still no word from grand central publishing.
tish
link didn't work for me
the photos are better on his website and there are close up shots that makes me think not!
tish
http://www.gaaiken.com/aboutadragon.php
Same? Or different?
I goggled Paul Marron too and his upper lip looks too full to be your guy. IDK, hard to tell from full frontal face. I need a profile.
Tish: Try this link: http://s832.photobucket.com/albums/zz244/krisngoodbooks/?action=view¤t=pm.jpg
Yeah, I just don't know if he's the one, Tish.
Tracy: I don't think it's the same guy on the G A Aiken cover, but I'm not sure.
Wow, this is a lot harder than I thought it would be. Who knew. LOL.
Nope – bottom lip is too full for your guy
I'm your girl honey. I've emailed the author.
*eyes shining* Oh, wow. Just wow. Tracy you go to the top of my Most Awesomest Minion list. Well, you and Tish. *beams*
Not to burst my own bubble, because I am truly wonderful, but I was just skimming her site and it looks like she's in Argentina at the moment on vacation. Let's see if she responds. 🙂
*crossing fingers and toes* I'm on tenterhooks here.
She (Kate Perry) just left a twitter message from Brazil so I she just might 🙂 yeah I am following her twittering.. so sad that it's midnight and I have no life.
tish
Sweetie darling…. I want to send you a piccie (yeah of me… I know it's daylight there so you won't be tooooo scared 🙂 ) How do I do it… and then make sure you delete it aSAP 🙂
Did you know there is actually over a thousand 'romance cover model' sites.
tish
Tish, you need to twitter her back – or however the fuck it works – and ask her about the model!
Piccies?? Cool. This is me: krisngoodbooksATgmailDOTcom.
“Did you know there is actually over a thousand 'romance cover model' sites.”
I know. It's so awesome. 🙂
Okay,
I twittered her and asked.
tish
Did you get the piccie?
Excellent! *rubbing hands together in glee*
I did get your picce. You look awesome in it, although I think you must have been channelling Alexia from 'Soulless'. 😉
Kate Perry is in Argentina not Brazil. (I am so stooopid sometimes) Whats the time there?
tish
Kris,
troll through these covers and see if any match. Paul Marron is lookng better by the minute.

tish
You guys are freaking insane. LOL I can't believe you are tweeting the author. HAHAHAHA
He is purty though. He'll be giving Nathan a run for his money, not that KZ won't try and take him down a peg if he gets too big for his britches and threatens Nathan hold on book cover hottie.
I won for dry tree sex? Yay me! Love you both.
Oh Tam, honey, I can't even see this guy in his entirety and I can already tell you he'll beat Nathan. *coughnotanathanfancough*
Tish: 'Bout 8.30am when you commented.
“Kris,
troll through these covers and see if any match. Paul Marron is lookng better by the minute.
http://www.amazon.com/Paul-Marron-favorite-cover-model/lm/RSEKIWA4H8XDY
tish”
O_O *whispers* It's like Christmas.
Tam: Hun, this is serious shit here. No mucking about.
Yeah, you won the D&D comp. And I know the other two scenes Sean wrote and I'm not telling. *hehehe*
Tracy: K Z will now be your mortal enemy. You should be scared.
Minion? MINION? *crosses arms* I don't remember signing a form saying I was a minion…
I would offer to assist but on my very slow computer you owuld probably end up meeting said model when you were both eligible for superannuation *grin* And it seems like Tish & Tracy have things well in hand 🙂 I will provide sustenance
*races off to fridge*
Oh for cryinoutloud…
Orannia: Who said you had to agree to be a minion. That's part of the whole 'do my bidding or else' deal.
You'd better be serving up cookies otherwise people (ie me) are gonna be pissed.
KZ: *taps foot* And what the heck is your problem?!
Kris,
Kate Perry tweeted me back. She is back in NY on Monday and will find out for me then…. so we will have to wait 🙂
tish
Awesome! Tish wins the coveted Minion of the Month award! *GRIN*
And how much am I loving Kate Perry, btw. She is obviously a lady who understands the value of a gorgeous cover model cookie. :).
Yep – she emailed me back…and asked if I'd tweeted! lol She said she's contacted her editor and will probably find out on Monday and get back to me. lol Between Natasha and I we WILL find out.
Sorry KZ. I guess that I'm one of the few that might think that. Not saying he's not good looking wool but I'm just tired of seeing him. If it makes you feel any better I'm not a huge fan of Gerard Butler's either – although he's a nice looking man as well.
You guys are insane. I love it. 😉
Actually, Tracy, I do grudgingly admit Nathan's halcyon days are probably past. And Gerard Butler? Yeesh, no thanks.
Now Hugh Jackman…
Have any of you seen pictures of Jake Gyllenhaal in next year's Prince of Persia movie? (Kris? Hmmm?) Jack Twist on steroids, baby! — http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1878493440/tt0473075
Kris,
you are famous….. I knew you would be. Kate Perry has put a link from her twitter page to here. WHOO HOO!!!!!
tish
Tracy: And we have a co-winner for the MoM! You and Tish will be famous after this. 🙂
Kate, hi!!
“You guys are insane.”
Yes. Yes, we are. 🙂
Thank you, thank you, thank you for being an enabler (ie supporting this very important cause by harassing your publisher on m-, err, our behalf).
You will go down in history as the author who went the extra mile for her fans even whilst on holiday and drinking copious amounts of beer in Argentina, which, as an Aussie, I totally appreciate. *beams*
KZ: *rolls eyes* You are obsessed with Prince of Persia, although who knew Jake G could play beefcake.
Tish: Good to know that complete strangers will get such a terrific impression of me. LOL.
KZ – yes I agree. Hugh Jackman – he can come to my house any day of the week!
That Gyllenhaal picture is great!
And I think I love you for saying no thanks to Mr. Butler. I think we're the only 1 in bloglandia that think that.
I think I need to do a top 5 (men) list like Kati did and see who's on everyone's lists.
Kris – I couldn't let Ms. Perry think we were all crazy so I had to put a link to your post in my email to her…so that she'd know it was really only you. You see, I got your back. lol
