 This week on Romance Writers Weekly, Victoria Barbour wants us to dream big. If our most recent book was being produced for Hollywood, who would we cast for it? If you’ve joined me by Eden Ashe, welcome!  My most recent release, Chef d’Amour, has prickly, fiercely independent Jemma dealing with an ill grandmother, a jerk for a boss, and the dangerous attentions of Paul Almeida. Kiera Knightley’s sharp, strong features immediately come to mind. Jemma sports a short haircut, as well, except that her bangs are longer and dyed a vibrant pink.  As for Paul, one Google search for dark haired actors came up with Wes Bentley, and he’s just right. This is Paul’s “TV” look – he’s the sexy bachelor on the romance reality show where Jemma works. When he’s running his own 5-star restaurant he’s more formal, but I’m sure Wes could pull it off!

I know, right? I didn't know about Wes Bentley until now. Didn't know what I was missing! 4/7/2015 08:35:04 pm
Wes's eyes kill me every time and I almost didn't even recognize Kiera. LOVE THESE Brenda!

From your descriptions I can totally see each of the actors playing your characters! Love them all. What fun to see them.

Sometimes it's not the physical features, its the expression and look in their eyes that connect them for me. Leave a Reply. |
