My Book Boyfriend


Ah, after reading Deadly Descendant you can now place me fully in the drooling after Jamaal category! Descended from the death goddess Kali, he does have trouble controlling his death magic. In fact it grieves him a lot. He has gone to extremes in trying to control it but isn't always successful. He's an alpha male to the core, but has a soft side he doesn't show hardly anyone. He has had a horrible human existence and not a fun immortal one either. The fact that he still wants to be a good person despite all the betrayals and harsh living he has gone through tells you who he is deep down. He is loyal and will not give up on someone once they earn that loyalty. His compassion runs deep even though he rarely shows the world. That is saved for those he cares about the most.

Now who could play Jamaal? I had a hard time picking someone for him. I mean he had to have that look that could kill but yet light up a room when he smiles. His hair is distinctive, but I couldn't find someone to fit the bill with his hairstyle. However, I thought Tyson Beckford could at least fit one requirement. I always loved his smile even though I honestly can't ever see him with a look that would make me want to run the other way. So, I dub him the closest to my Jamaal in my head. It was his smile that sold me:
well, puts a smile on my face...

So, who is new in your man harem this week?

  2. Your description of him reminds me a little bit of Acheron with the awful human existence and a rough immortal one as well. And I am 100% in love with Acheron. Bring on Jamaal, there's room for me to love him too!

  9. For some reason I totally forgot about Tyson Beckford. He's not as hot as Taye Diggs, but he will certainly do.
