Phury, the hero of Lover Enshrined (my book review can be read here – wow it’s from 2009!! LOL!)
At one time (until his own book!) Phury was competing for my #1 favorite brother. His only competition? His twin, Zsadist. Z was always a touch ahead of Phury for me. As the angrier, more tortured brother, he appealed to my bad-boy curiosity, but Phury was so compelling. A mysterious, intriguing character, a kind and gentle warrior, but obviously tormented in his own way. In my mind, the most gorgeous of them all, and the most noble. Not a bad-boy bone in his body… and yet, another one who was completely unattainable, due to his devotion to his deeply troubled brother.

Character Look-Alikes – Zsadist From The Black Dagger Brotherhood
And with that latest J.R Ward Tidbits and News post, it gave me the perfect opportunity to show you what I found (well my friend Sherry found it, but I said MINE!!). It’s mostly just silly fun, but when I find THE perfect picture, I need to immortalize it on my blog forever, so that I can pull it up and *swoon* whenever I want. It’s the most perfect example of my version of Zsadist!
It is no secret that “Z” is my most favorite-est of all book characters (human, vampire or other). Nobody beats him. A strong alpha-male, that is so broken inside that he won’t let a soul near him. He’s a protector. A fearless fighter (although deep inside, he is slowly losing his own fight). Part of an intricate, closely knit group of vampire warrior “Brothers”, and yet, he always remains in the shadows, distant from everyone that tries to love him. Always at arms length. No humor, no happiness, no hope. But despite his personal hatred of himself, he hides a fierce loyalty to his group, and fights side by side with them, without fail.
Authors Reveal Who Their Characters Look Like:
Well I’m at it again. Obsessively stalking the internet for “tidbits” of cool info that we don’t really need, but love to know.
See here was my problem of the day:
Sometimes, I can picture a character perfectly in my head, and then other times…nothing. The images keep getting jumbled in my head, and I can’t stick to just one (kind of ruins the momentum of the story, if I can’t “nail him down” you know?).
Usually, you’d think a book cover would help alleviate that problem. That’s all fine, ‘cept when the book cover is just a sexy tattoo’d torso (yeah yeah…I get it we’re supposed to come up with the “image” ourselves – sexy generic torso’s suit us all I guess). No predefined “image” equals no complaints, right? Right.
