rm kahn,

((Like that double-rich chocolate truffle))

I really didn't need to be thinking about chocolate. :-)

But yup, some bad boys are just that yummy.

It's the allure of the something you want to eat, like that double-rich chocolate truffle but it is oh, so bad for you. You want what you shouldn't have. That bad boy radiates along your skin like electricity and like chocolate, that 'zing' you feel is addicting.

The new book will be out Novemeber 25th.

And I can't wait.

Thanks Gemma.

They just have that special thing.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Oh, I LOVE the new cover! I was just wondering when this book was due out.

The appeal of the bad boy is great. There's just something about them. They have that 'it' factor. For some women it's humor, others is the silent type. Some describe it as their presence in a room.

Wendy,

Yup, humor is a must. Making me laugh is almost foreplay.

Thanks for stopping in.

I've only read Divorced, Desperate & Delicious (love that book, btw!) but I can't wait to read more! :)

Estella,

Yup, but of course, that I-don't-give-a-damn attitude is fake. Because deep down those bad boys are good to the bone.

I think looks, a dangerous edge and an I don't give a damn attitude are what draws me to bad boys.

Linda C,

You'll love Jason then. He's the blond of my mix of dark and dangerous heroes. Not that he isn't dangerous.

Ahh, but poor Jason has a time dealing with Sue.

Those grins are killers.

Christie, I do have to agree about the sense of humor. Also the so called "shit eating grin" will get to me every time. Especially if they have blonde hair and blue eyes. No tall and dark for me. I guess that's why I fell for my husband. He can make me laugh when I am so mad that I forget what got me that mad. He's 62 and still a very bad boy. LOL
Linda

The new book sounds fabulous, Christie!!!

What do I love about bad boys? I'm not sure I can explain the appeal for me. It's just there. :)

2008-10-07T09:05:00.000-07:00

It's the "woman-eating-let's-get-naked" grin. (Though I love the "come-here-baby" grin descriptor too.)

Complete sucker for the grin. It's trouble...and I love trouble.

(Though I have to agree with Terri, if you can make me laugh when I'm so pissed off, steam is rolling out of my ears, I'm a goner.)

2008-10-07T08:49:00.000-07:00

For me the bad boy attraction is all about control, or in some cases lack thereof. I like the idea that some hot guy( in faded jeans and a tight t shirt- the kind that show off his ripped bod) will just take over- you know, that dominating factor. They eat up your personal space and make your tummy do that little flip flop-yum! Toss in the ability to make me laugh and I'm a goner.

2008-10-07T08:45:00.000-07:00

Kate,

WOW! That was such a good description, and girl, you sound as if you have a great bad boy! Give him a hug for me.

And you are so right. Bad boys make up their own rules. And they don't give up on the women they love. Ahh, love those bad boys.

Thank you so much.

2008-10-07T08:12:00.000-07:00

This sounds like one I've got to read. Ya see...I married a bad boy. That was almost 37 years ago, and all those things that made him "Bad" also make him a terrific husband, a great dad and an even better grandfather. It's the sense of humor, the twinkle in his eye and his knack for breaking rules and getting away with it. It's looking at life from a bit off-center, always wanting to learn something new and never giving up on what's really important to him...and luckily, for some obscure reason, he's never given up on me. Bad boys are stubborn, but they're worth the effort, believe me!

Ahh, Terrio,You hit it right on! I'm a sucker for...

2008-10-07T07:14:00.000-07:00

Ahh, Terrio,

You hit it right on! I'm a sucker for a sense of humor. Which explains why I fell in love with my hubby. I love a man who can make me giggle. They can almost get away with murder if they can keep my laughing.

Thanks for posting girl.

And I promise, Sue and Jason will keep you snickering. If it isn't the crotch sniffing dog that makes you chuckle, it will be the fruit-selling Elvis impersonator.

2008-10-07T06:43:00.000-07:00

I can't wait to read this story. Gah! That sounds like fun!

This trait is my favorite and it really applies to any kind of man but works great on the bad boys. It's the sense of humor. If he can make me laugh when I'm so ticked off I want to shoot him, I'm a goner. Back that up with him throwing a punch or two (and I know I'm not supposed to find that sexy but dang it all), you've got yourself one irresistable bad boy.

Since I know you write some of the hottest guys mixed with some of the funniest stuff I've ever read, I'm positive you could pull this off in spades.

2008-10-07T06:25:00.000-07:00

Oh geez, how can I define it? Aside from looks (naturally!) for me I guess it's an aura of risk - because you're never quite sure what will happen next or how far he'll go to get what he wants.
