I was interviewed on a very cool blog recently called Nose in a Book. Shortly afterward, lisabea wrote to me and a few other authors and asked us if we’d name our “desert island keepers” or, in other words, the 5 men we’d choose to have with us if we were deserted on a desert island.
Not an easy list to come up with. Even harder now that I’ve read other people’s lists. It’s one of those things that after you read someone else’s list you think “oh man, I didn’t even think of him! I want him too!”
But I still stand by the list I came up with, which is: Luc from Purgatory, Radin from the Dark Elves series (yeah, I like my own guys), Batman/Bruce Wayne, and Jean-Claude and Nathaniel from LKH’s Anita Blake series. Galen from LKH’s Merry Gentry series was a serious contender too.
So, give it some thought. Who would you choose to have?

Hmm, 5 guys huh? I’d have to go with Doyle from the Merry Gentry series, Asher and Jamil from the Anita Blake series, Krael from the Dark Elves series, and Smoky from the Sisters of the Moon series. If I can have an extra (yeah, we all know I’m greedy LOL) I’d take Eric from the Southern Vampire series too.

Okay, Roarke from J. D. Robb’s “In Death” series, Any of the guys except for
Richard from Anita Blake, Antonio d’Este from my book, “The Collector 5: The
Crystal Flacon” (he’s patterned after Antonio Banderas ;~D), Any of
JoAnn Ross’s heroes – they’re so heroic – and Gabe and Ethan also
from one of my stories, “The Shimmering Flame”. They come as a set!
