Colleen Coble writes romantic suspense with a strong atmospheric element. A lovable animal of some kind--usually a dog--always populates her novels. She can be bribed with DeBrand mocha truffles.
Denise Hunter writes women's fiction and love stories with a strong emotional element. Her husband says he provides her with all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too.
Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

When I was really little, Adam Cartwright on Bonanza. Then Mickey of the Monkees. Then, of course, Spock. Nobody has ever come close to Spock. Mel has that logical mind, too, so of course I base my male leads on him.
Davy Jones of the Monkees and Bobby Sherman of Here Come the Brides. My husband is short like Davy Jones, but I think the similarity ends there.
my first crush was Robert Fuller on Emergency,
Happy to say, didn't have a crush on any of the original Star Trek crew, but I share your sadness at the "end of an era." I was watching one of the first Star Trek movies with my 20 year old son recently, and was sad to see them there so full of life, realizing most are gone now, or looking very, very old (hard to watch Captain Kirk on those commercials).
Since we're 'fessing up, as a teen I had a crush on that blonde gal with the beehive doo. Forgot her name. :)
John Schneider, otherwise known as Bo Duke. :-) The only blond I ever had a crush on, and boy, did I.
Dan Walsh, I read The Unfinished Gift over the holidays and loved it. Kudos!
Ah, the Monkees! I was a Mickey Dolenz fan myself. :-) You had quite a crush, Dan, if you cant' remember her name! LOL
Bo Duke didn't affect you enough that you married a blond, D!
AHHH, Denise, you took mine!!!
Oh how I loved Bo Duke. Sigh. I still watch anything John Schneider is in. And every time we see him in something I remind my husband and son how much I loved him as a little girl. I don't even have to look at them to see them rolling their eyes.
Thanks Denise for the kudos. The sequel will be out June 1st, with a wonderful quote from Colleen on the front cover (thanks again, Colleen).
Re my crush...you're right, Colleen, couldn't have been too strong if I can't remember her name. Googled it and found an interesting Trekkie trivia point. Seems there's a good reason I couldn't remember her name. Shatner/Kirk lobbied to have her dropped after the first season, so he could be with a different "space babe" every week.
Also found out...she's still alive and 80 years old.
Oh dear! I'm going to share my first crush and my age at the same time. I was IN LOVE with Ben Casey!! Any of you old enough to remember him? I had pictures of him pasted all over my room. I even had one on my mirror so he could watch me set my hair in rollers every night! I would sigh and sigh when looking at Ben Casey, nearly swooning every time the show came on TV. (My mother must have had the patience of Job over that crush!) Now I can't remember the name of the TV show or the name of the man who played Ben...but that's okay. I wasn't in love with him.
Oh I totally remember Ben Casey! That brooding expression. LOL
Ruthie thought she was showing her age with her crush on Ben Casey, well I'm about to outdo her. My first crush was on Elvis Presley, when he first came on the scene.
Little Joe on Bonzana. Dr. Killdare. :)
Much later, it was Pierce Brosnan in Remington Steele.
I was in love with Donny Osmond for years. Shew, dodged that bullet. Ha!
My first "real" boyfriend was dark haired, dark eyed like Donny.
But after that, I went for the blue/green eyed guys.
Tony is not like Donny. He's tall, lean, built with formerly blond hair and still-blue eyes.
He's actually more like my dad personality wise. I am soooo blessed to have him as my hubby! God knew... God knew.

My crush--Kurt Russell! He was in all those Disney films when I was in high school, "The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes," "Super Dad," and all the others. I had a poster of him in my room when I was a kid. One of my friends smeared banana on his mouth (on the poster). I punched her in the nose. (Please don't judge me--I've since seen the error of my ways.) The only fight I've ever had. All for Kurt Russell.
Oh, the pain of puppy love.
Movie star crush was Dean Cain during his superman years, not married so will see how it affected my future spouse though I enjoy reading books about cowboys and reformed bad boys and straight guys who ride motorcycles now that presents a very intereting visual :)
Oh man, mine was Adrian Paul, of the Highlander series! Course, I didn't marry a dark haired man who can't wield a sword to save his life, but he certainly had the sense of humor.
I think my first "crush" was Dean Martin (I'm not kidding -- but it might have been Elvis Presley -- and I'm not that old). My husband does not have Dino's hair (ahhum), or his swagger he does not drink in excess or otherwise (though it was a distinct possibility at one time -- family tradition you know) and (sorry Honey) definatley not his voice. But as I think about your question I realize that Dean and Frank (my husband Frank, not the other one) do have something in common:their twinkling eyes, ready smile and wonderful sense of humor.
