I'm pretty sure mine looks similar to this:
 So without further ado, I shall announce the winners!


Best Bad BoyThe Best Bad Boy category is honoring all of those guys who melt our hearts one moment and say something to push us away the next (usually for our own good). They've got sexy down to a tee and know how to weaken our knees with one smolder. They usually come complete with tousled hair, a leather jacket and motorcycle and/or really hot car and like to walk on the wild side.

Costume change for me:

Favorite "Regular Guy": He doesn't have super powers. He's not any kind of supernatural. He's just the normal guy next door but he comes in many skins. Sometimes he's the smoking hot bad boy and other times, he's the super sweet nice guy. What puts him in this categories is that his heart beats and he's no superman.

Nominees are:

  • Dimitri for “I'll do things that'll make you lose control within seconds.”
  • Peeta for “’I remember everything about you,’’ says Peeta, tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear. ‘’You’re the one who wasn’t paying attention.’’
  • Damon for “I love you, Elena. And it’s because I love you that I can’t be selfish with you.”
  • Luc for “"So, how hot would you like it? I’m capable of all levels of hotness, from Luc-warm to—and I’m being literal here—hotter than hell."
  • Patch for “"You should go," I breathed. "You should definitely go." 
    "Go here?" His mouth was on my shoulder. "Or here?" It moved up my neck."
      
  • Ky for "I believe in you. That's more faith than I ever thought I'd have."
  • Ash for “"Touch her, and I'll freeze your testicles off and put them in a jar. Understand?
  • Edward for “"Well...don't be offended, but you smell like a dog."
  • Jace for "There is no pretending, I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there is life after that, I'll love you then."
  •  Ren for “That means you like it.”
  •  Jay for “I was just waiting for you to want me as much as I wanted you.” His words were quiet but carried one hell of an impact. “I knew we were going to be together; it was just a matter of time. I kept hoping that you would figure it out. But for a smart girl, you’re a little dense, Vi."
  • Daniel for “How many times have I told you I will always find you?

  2. I'm glad Will and Jace were well represented, but a bit disappointed that Will didn't beat Jace since I like Will even better. (Also, Will's duck line is the BEST.)

    Thanks for hosting such an awesome event, I had fun reading all the posts and voting!

  3. Haha, this was so much fun!
    Not a surprise that Jace won almost everything, he deserves it! But I still voted mostly for Ash :)

  4. Sigh, *pushes Jace off of a cliff* That boy doesn't deserve to win every title, he just isn't that great. He is a good male character but people need to start reading other things besides TMI series.

    Thanks for a great event.

  5. Wow, Jace and Will certainly did well, GO CASSANDRA CLARE!
    Thanks for hosting this, amazing and creative idea.

  7. Such a great event, thanks so much for putting it on! All I can say is I obviously NEED to read The Mortal Instruments to see what all the fuss is. As it stands I say St Clair, Damon and Dimitri were ROBBED! ;-D

  13. Yay for Peeta (Hunger Games) winning two categories.

    I haven't read TMI so I'm not a fan of Jace, he didn't sound too great to me, but maybe I'll have to read them to find out.

    Was a great month though. Thanks :D

  14. Woww!! I love your costume!! hahahaha
    And My lovely Peeta is the best for me... I really enjoy it this post!! It was so Fun!
    love!!

    ReplyDelete
  15. I'm so glad Peeta was able to win a few! That's my boy!! :) I wish there was more variety (meaning, I wish Jace didn't win practically everything... but that could be because I don't like him. meh.), but this was a fun competition anyway. I bet there are all sorts of additions to our TBR piles... I have plenty! Thanks for hosting this fun event, Amber! And thanks to all the bloggers who hosted a bachelor!

Thinking of writing something below? Well, that's why you are awesome! I always love feedback!

This blog is an award free zone. With the demand of a full time job, blogging time is becoming much more precious and I just don't have the time to meet the demands of awards. Thanks so much for thinking of me anyway!
