I posted this over at eharlequin where I’m hosting a thread for the next four days as a way to break the ice and open discussion, (I don’t think I have a big enough following at Harlequin to warrant a thread so it will probably be a very quiet four days there, but I am there. *G*) However, I think this variation on the name your favorite heroes thread, is fun, so I thought I’d post it here, too. These are all heroes from books. Any genre. Just name the hero you would want with you in the following situations.
1) With what hero from what book would you most enjoy being snowbound for a weekend? Why?
2) With what hero from what book would you want to attend a 5 hour state dinner? Why?”
3) With what hero from what book would you want to be trapped in a tiny, dark elevator for five hours? Why?
4) With what hero from what book would you want to go on a survival training weekend in the mountains? Why?
5) With what hero from what book would you want to be stranded for a year on a deserted island? Why?
6) What hero from what book would you want to be under platonic house arrest for a year? Why?
7) With what hero from what book would you want to attend the wedding of your former best friend and former fiance? Why?
8) With what hero from what book would you want to raise ten children? Why?
9) With what hero from what book would you want to endure a horrible cold? Why?
10) With what hero from what book would you have liked to share a teen romance? Why?
