Sexy Sunday - Vamps with Devyn Quinn


For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated with vampires. Though I can’t recall the age in which I discovered vampires, I do recall the first actor to make an impression in the title role of Dracula: Jack Palance. At the time I didn’t know who the actor was. And I didn’t care. I was just hooked on vampires. And there were lots of them, on the big screen and the small, fulfilling my fantasies of being swept off my feet by a sexy dark stranger with a lust for necks. Didn’t matter that old Drac might be long in the tooth or maybe a few centuries too old for me. I literally lived for vamps, immersing myself in the legend and the lore.



So when it came time to start writing my own books (and that’s a whole other story there) the one thing I definitely wanted to try my hand at was the immortal bloodsucker. Since I find myself disliking the idea of the vampire being undead (uh, creepy) I decided to branch off and create my own lore. That’s why Iollan Drake, the vampire hero of my book, Embracing Midnight, is quite a different species of vampire. What kind is he? Well, I won’t give up too many of his secrets in this short paragraph. Suffice to say, Iollan is tall, dark and handsome, with a particular thirst for blood…

Who is your favorite blood sucking sweety?  Leave a link to the photo and I will post it here.  You are entering to win a copy of Embracing Midnight by Devyn Quinn.  To find out more check out her book at Amazon.com or Devyn Quinn's site http://www.devynquinn.com 


I tried not to pick anyone too obvious for myself but there are so many options out there I felt fair in choosing this one.   Brad Pitt in Interview with the Vampire.

Michael Nominated some girl on girl Vampire action.  Thanks for the male input. 



Gary Oldman - the sexiest most talented guy to play a vampire - or one of them - I agree with A.E. Rought in that choice.





Doni Nominates the the Hotty from TV's Moonlight

Have to be Spike from Buffy the vampire slayer...though not much of a vamp chick (prefer wolves myself and not the ones from Twilight) but given a choice it's Spike and Angel definitely.....  From Angelle




Going old school with this one!  Greta choice Leigh.  Not 100% sure I want him coming through my window!



Peach likes Frank Langella's Dracula from the 70's



Bruce's choice of the night - two boys playing along - what fun.



Nicole Zoltack's choice from the new Vampire Diaries show.  Did you see the episode when he has his shirt off?  The boy is ripped!  It was almost too hot.





OMG!  I love Stuart Townsend.  He is so cute - and he gets to be with Charlize Theron who I have seen in real life and is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.  From Queen of the Damned - thanks Alix

This boy is soooo sexy!  Thanks for the picture Cecile.  I had not realized he was fanged in a previous film.  Must check it out.

Floy went with Spike from Buffy or Alice from Twilight, since spike is up above here is Alice who is one mad hot chica - I included her IMDB shot below cause in the movies she is wearing a wig!

Can I get some of the genes that she got?
Please?


Okay, I love Spike and Angel, sure, but Stefan....oh yeah. Gotta go with him.  Thanks Lynn!  I loved the parts where he was topless.
So I had to share a shot - sorry it is so dark.

I tried not to pick the most obvious choices and so I am glade that Veronica Blake finally mentioned the Hotty who brought me over to Team Edward and got me to look at the books.  I am embarrassed to confess my new obsession.  It is why I have been offline all day indulging in some reading.

Rie McGaha - , I have to say my very favorite is Geraint Wyn Davies who stared as Nick Knight in the series Forever Knight. 
I confess to never having been a follower of the show but NetFlix here I come!




I vote for Kyle Schmid who played Henry Fitzroy in the Blood Ties adaptation of Tanya Huff's urban fantasy vampire novels. I love me some Henry.  Michelle Polaris - yum choice indeed.  I am not familiar but I will keep my eyes open now

I have also had a fascination with vampires for as long as I can remember. I love vampire fiction, and have an extensive book collection to prove it! It's hard for me to pick one that's my favorite, because there are so many! Probably the first one I remember being enamored with was Ben Cross as Barnabas Collins in the 90s revival of the series Dark Shadows. He was older, distinguished, enigmatic, frightening, and sexy all at once. I grew to love Angel and Spike on Buffy, and of course Mick St. John from Moonlight. There's just something about a broody, fangy guy that revs my engine! - From Christie Gray

It's hard to pick between the two brothers on the Vampire Diaries, Stefan and Damon.

Since I saw my first Dracula movie many, many years ago I have had a love affair with Vampires. But, none of them has ever affected me the way Edward Cullen from the Twilight Saga does...he is definitely my fanasty vamp. My favoriate place to look at pictures of him is Twifans, Domestic Bliss Friday, because they add sexy captions to his sexy pictures.

I agree with Peach. Frank Langella was the sexiest vamp ever. I thought Brad Pitt's characterization of Louis was very effeminate. Stuart Townsend was a much better Lestat than Tom Cruise. And while Alex O'Loughlin as Mick St. John in Moonlight is very sexy, I have to say my very favorite is Geraint Wyn Davies who stared as Nick Knight in the series Forever Knight. http://www.avenuepotter.com/~kristin/Forever_Knight/index2.htm
