My Book Boyfriend (6)

My Book Boyfriend is a weekly meme hosted by Missie of The Unread Reader, in which we swoon over boys in books!
(I--as in me, Amy--don't like to use commercial photos, I like to use the authors' descriptions and my imagination.)



Adam Hauptman
Book: Moon Called by Patricia Briggs
Series: Mercy Thompson

This Alpha werewolf is not one to be messed with. Five-ten, a hundred and eighty pounds, Slavic coloring: dusky skin, dark hair, wide cheekbones, and a narrow but sensual mouth. Rich chocolate brown eyes that turn golden, a sign that his wolf is close to the surface. Adam is fair and unbiased when it comes to ruling his pack, he takes in those wolves that others might disregard or simply kill. He is the ultimate protector when it comes to his daughter, and although he would rather shelter the woman he loves, he has confidence in her resourcefulness and need to take care of herself--but he will always be there when she needs him . The power he carries makes him irresistible to both human and werewolf alike.

Quotes:

Adam didn't look away from me, though he flinched subtly at the sound of Shawn's voice. His blazing gold eyes held mine, somehow hot and icy at the same time. I should have looked away--but it didn't seem like a dominance contest. It felt like he was using my eyes to pull himself up from wherever the drugs had forced him. I tried not to blink and break the spell.

"I try," he said with false modesty. Then his eyes darkened and he reached across the table and ran his thumb over my bottom lip. He watched me as he licked the caramel from his skin.
