Special Halloween Guest Marissa Farrar

Please welcome my very dear friend Marissa Farrar to my blog. I'm completely thrilled to have her here on Halloween as she is somewhat of an expert on all things paranormal and while she's mixing up plots and sexy characters she's making it all super hot too. So grab yourself a glass of pumpkin wine, put up your feet, get the black cat on your lap and read on…

Sexy Werewolves!

Marissa Farrar

Several years ago, while writing a blog post, I quipped that
I preferred vampires to werewolves because who the hell would want dog hair in
their bed? Fast forward a number of years, and I’m older and wiser. While I
still love my vampires, I have also developed a keen appreciation of all things
shifter.

My initial encounter of werewolves came from the movie ‘In
the Company of Wolves.’ An extremely unsuitable boyfriend at the time—older,
long hair, tattoos, basically every teenage girls’ dream—introduced me to the
movie. It’s dark and sexy, and I highly recommend it for a classic horror movie
this Halloween.

But recently werewolves have been hitting the big time, and
producing some rather gorgeous werewolf types out of it. Here’s a list of my
top five!

1. Alcide from True Blood. Now this is one hot
werewolf! While I didn’t like where the show took his character, I was quite
happy watching along for all of the naked chest (and everything else) shots.
Eric (Alex Skarsgard) will always be my favourite, but Alcide ran a close
second!

2.Derek from Teen Wolf. Dark and smouldering, and
not always on the right side of good, Derek was the main Alpha, and still is in
my eyes. He makes Scott seem like a puppy-dog in comparison.

3.Peter Rumenack from Hemlock Grove. Okay, I know
I have a thing about the Skarsgard family (Bill, who plays Peter’s best friend,
Roman, on the show is Alex’s (Eric from True Blood) little brother), and while
I do think Roman overshadowed Peter’s character slightly, I still fell for
Peter’s long haired, blue eyed, gypsy/werewolf ways.

4. Jacob Black from Twilight. He’s a little on the
young and sweet side for me, but I couldn’t not include him! He’s another one
who we never mind if he takes his shirt off, but Jacob, I do wish you hadn’t
cut your hair!

5.Michael Corvin from Underworld. The best part of
Micheal was the romance that went with his character. While Jacob Black had the
simpering Bella as potential girlfriend material, Michael had the kick ass
Selene. It takes a whole lot of man—I mean werewolf—to handle a woman like
that!

So there’s my list. Who are your favourite werewolves? And
if you want to check out my own version of werewolf hotness, including some
well built, long-haired, tattooed shifters, please check out my Spirit Shifters
series. There are currently three books in the series, with book four to be
released in December. Book One, Autumn’s Blood, is free across most ebook
sites!
