And the Oscar Goes To...   Romance Writers Weekly #lovewritechat

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!
Picture
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. 

Picture
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!

In No Life But This, my hopefully soon to be released third novel, shy, timid Abigail decides to break free from the restrictions of her life with the help of Portuguese tour guide Santos. Amanda Seyfreid’s fragile blonde beauty is perfect for Abigail. And Nuno Lopes charming, flirtatious smile is exactly how I see Santos. I love this shot of him!

Want to see how Victoria rose to her own challenge? Check it out HERE. She’s got a lot of projects on the go, so I’m interested to see which one she decided to focus on. I for one would love to see who she might cast as her Geek God.

I know, right? I didn't know about Wes Bentley until now. Didn't know what I was missing!

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.
