Happily Ever After Cafe discussion

Can you list any romantic heroes that really stood out for you? In the movies, novels, on TV, real life?
For example, in the movie An Officer and An Gentleman, when he went to the factory at the end and pick his lady up and walked out.... (sigh)

I have to say Leo from Not Quite a Husband I can still remember reading parts of that book and feel my heart clench and my eyes tear up.

Derek Craven and St. Vincent, from Dreaming of You and Devil in Winter by Lisa Kleypas. Also Ross Cannon from Lady Sophia's Lover by the same author.

Danielle i noticed that Devil in winter is a series . do you have to read book 1 first .. i no with the "hathaways" you dont necessarily need to read them in order

Id say Alexander from .. Shura my loveThe Bronze Horseman

Daniel..."

Rachel I started with Devil In Winter not realizing it was a series. I think it helps if you start with book one and go from there.

I agree with Pamela. I think you can totally read DIW first.

YAYAYY oki doki

Office and Gentleman is one of my all time fav movies! I still get angry with Sid dies, and I cry when he carrys her out of the factory every time.

I'm not a crier but that scene does get to me.

Royce Westmoreland from Judith McNaught's A Kingdom of Dreams --he killed me that guy :D

Hey, that's also my favourite scene from any movie, EVER!

*sigh* That was sooooooo romantic!

Thanks, LK. Now I'll need to go watch that movie. lol

Really!

Sigh ....

Captain Wentworth in Jane Austen's Persuasion. Because of The Letter. *dies*

I haven't read that one, Abigail. Maybe someday I'll get to it.

I think Flynn Rider is the most romantic hero out there :)

Oh Flynn! Sigh!

You mean in Tangled?

Yeah, hehe. I loved his horse.

Yes, funny. I have the movie on my Kindle Fire. Maybe I should watch it again.

But the "step-mother" is soooooooooo evil!

Lol at liking the hero from Tangled. When I was a kid I wanted to marry Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid, I thought he was the greatest to my wee little girl self :D



Or the naughtier version:

I always thought that the Beast was cuter than he was in human form.

Yea totally! When he finally got turned human, I was disappointed, like, what? He ain't even cute... I thought they could've done better lol.

Ah, I thought he was a cutie. Maybe a little too cute but still cute.

Oh, I agree...the I like the Beast.

He was just so cute in Beast form. At first, I thought that Gaston would marry Belle and not the Beast.

Eep! Oh, I didn't like Gaston. Too conceited. Way. Too. Conceited.

OMG! Gaston? No Way!!!! He was so arrogant and conceited. I hated him!!!!

Lol he was better looking, but yea... Total... Ass... Big time!

Goes to show that looks aren't everything!

I think this put the cherry on the Sundae.

Ages ago, When Beauty and the Beast was first a stage show here in Sydney, Hugh Jackman was playing Gaston. My girlfriend who went to see the show said it was the first time that everybody was hoping that Belle would get with Gaston as Hugh was so hot....

I think I'd go with Gaston for sure if he was Hugh Jackman! Mmmm... delish! I'll just read while he's out hunting and being manly and stuff :D

I mean, compared to this guy:


Yea, I liked him as the beast better. He was big and growl-y and strong... now he just looks like some long-haired French dude. No offense to French dudes lol. Although this rendering of him is not so bad ;)



(Side note, also found this in my search, renderings of some of the other Disney dudes too. (view spoiler)[

Titter-titter...me too...I loved his horse too...but my favorite is the Beast from beauty and the beast....

Matthew Farrell from Paradise. Really awesome!!

Oh, goodness. I haven't read that one in awhile. Drat! audible.com doesn't have it.

shame on them!

It's one of the bestest books EVA!! Really, after finishing it....I felt like reading it all over again. Simply brilliant - the characters, chemistry, plotline - I loved the book to its core!!

Bones from Night Huntress Series was the only one who popped in my mind. Smoking husband material :3

Edward Cullen from The Twilight Saga!! I ADORE him!!<3<3<3 him!!!

Four from Divergent!! He isn't really romantic....but there's something about him...this mysterious air, which really attracts you. Love him SOOOO much!!

John Thornton from North and South, by Elizabeth Gaskell, as played by Richard Armitage in the BBC production--the very last scene: Ah, HEA!
