Happy Monday everyone! This week’s Ultimate Crush is by Carina Press author, Lynda Aicher and we have to say, it is just so lovely! Enjoy!
Growing up, my ultimate crush was Rob Lowe. I loved that man and his posters covered my walls. I thought he was absolutely the most gorgeous man and watched every movie or show he was in. He was “The One” of my teenage years.
As I matured (way matured) I’ve come to realize that my ultimate crush still has the same facial characteristics that I latched onto with Mr. Lowe. The strong square jaw, high forehead, easy smile, stunning eyes and shorter hair—that is my man.
I’ve also grownup enough to realize that it takes a lot more than looks to make a man worthy of crushing on. Now, my ultimate crush has those looks, is confident and sure, but backs it all with a tenderness he isn’t afraid to show.
He is caring of others, nice to children and grandparents. He laughs openly and knows how to laugh at himself. He touches a lot, small strokes or brushes when he’s near. He’s in good health but not obsessed about staying fit. He does little things to make my life easier or to see me smile. He isn’t perfect—not by a long shot, but he also doesn’t claim or try to be.
Fictional or real, my ultimate crush is a man who is strong while remaining gentle.
*Sigh* We couldn’t agree more with @LyndaAicher and what about that Rob Lowe!

Think the first thing I saw him in might have been the Lost Boys – *sigh* I loved that film!
But as Sam Seaborn in The West Wing – he was brilliant!

I spent the entire shutdown working. Had no time to wind down. I didn’t see my son much when school shutdown. My one co worker was told to stay home for 3 weeks so I picked up her hours. This year has been really crappy.
Ugh, Janell. Here’s hoping the rest of your summer is better.
Thanks for the info, Carol! Everyone is different in how they deal with the shutdown! I stay at home all the time since I don’t work so I haven’t been too effected but my shopping and errands sure have been effected!
Valri, I’ve been doing most of my shopping online. My local Target is still low on some items – mostly cleaning supplies. Grocery store is pretty much back to normal. Most of the dining in our town is outdoor. I can’t imagine have school-age kids!
Wow–getting your creative process on track must have been daunting–especially with “extra-large dog” glad to have you home. You don’t like coffee–I love coffee and have enjoyed my fortifying 2 cups in the morning even more than usual! How as COVID affected your story lines and characterizations? Best Wishes for all releases!
Interesting question, Virginia. You’ll have to tell me if the tone of my “COVID” books changed any! LOL
Life has changed so much! My dad passed Feb 2. The assisted living facility my folks were at went into hardcore lockdown the beginning of March. Mom couldn’t leave her apartment for 4 months! She was on the third floor, Will be 89 in two months & doesn’t use the phone. My husband and I remodeled the lower level completely and moved her in with us July 1. What a life change and difficult transition for the 3 of us! But we’re working thru it!
