I also love Judd in Caressed by Ice. The juxtaposition between who they believe themselves to be and who they really are, especially with the heroine, just melts me!Tracy Deebshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905060663393394144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7499019835203480699.post-26585181903289781602011-03-17T11:05:40.194-07:002011-03-17T11:05:40.194-07:00I think you just listed most of my favorite charac...I think you just listed most of my favorite characters. My heart broke for Zsadist from the first page he appeared on. Zarek--wearing claws to fight with and carving little critters out of wood. It's the juxtapostion of those characteristics along with that moral compass you mentioned that make these guy so appealing to me.Alexis Morganhttp://www.alexismorgan.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7499019835203480699.post-48174589415664325542011-03-17T07:25:32.530-07:002011-03-17T07:25:32.530-07:00I agree, Marne.

So often, their actions are misunderstood-- particularly if they are trying to do something good after years (or centuries) of doing things that aren't so good. And yes, it is all in how the author writes them!Tracy Deebshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905060663393394144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7499019835203480699.post-52841234823751249902011-03-17T06:33:13.471-07:002011-03-17T06:33:13.471-07:00Nice article and great insights.

I see them as basically good men who are far too hard on themselves. And it's all in how the author portrays them...Marne Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05981717156518711702noreply@blogger.com
