When I read Thoughtless by S.C. Stephens, it immediately got added to my favorite books. Part of the reason must be credited to Kellan Kyle…ok, ok…he’s a huge reason for it, because I fell in love with another fictional character.
Yup…I admit it. Kellan Kyle immediately went on my fantasy boyfriends list. He’s uber hawt, and when I say that?!? I mean smokin’ HOT! Mkay?!? Melt-your-panties- HAWT! RAWR hot!
I like to have a concrete image of my fictional men so that when I fantasize daydream read about them I have the proper visual in my head. I have to give credit where it’s due in this case. I was reading a review on Goodreads and Kara had thoughtfully provided the perfect image. I saw it, and BAM! THAT was my Kellan too. There was no name to go along with the gorgeous face, so I left her a comment, and asked if she knew his name…sadly she didn’t.
What to do?!? I went to twitter and asked for help in identifying this fabulous creature…and my friend Anya (site city) found out his name…Good heavens you’d have thought she gave me diamonds when she tweeted me his name. I might have screamed…just a little, and then I went image searching. So, thank you Kara and Anya <3
Alright…ready…set…GO!
OMG! Did I just drool all over my keyboard…Yup…that’s exactly what I just did. Do you blame me?!?
Kellan is tall with long, lean muscles…gulp! He has amazing blue eyes, and y’all know how fond I am of that eye color. He has sandy blond hair that has that perpetually mused look…bedroom hair. MmmHmm. Of course he smells heavenly…a must for my fantasy guys. O and did I mention he’s the lead singer of a band?!? Yowza ladies. He’s a real sweetheart too, although he does have some issues…don’t all my guys though?!? 
If you haven’t read the book he comes from yet…good heavens…what are you waiting for??? Go buy Thoughtless by S.C. Stephens, read it, and then we’ll chat about Kellan…and the book.
Damn…I just wanna sit here and stare at these pictures all day a little while longer…

P.S. The gorgeous hawtie’s name is Devin Paisley
So um…does this hotness have a name???
His name is Devin Paisley
Wow! He is like spot on for Kellan… Now to find a good pic for Denny. Hmmm… Or Griffin, not my favorite character, but worth the research.
Right?!? When I saw him I was like holy hell…that’s Kellan!
Katiebirdie: Have you seen the actual picture of “the inspiration behind Denny?” If not, let me know, as I put together a lot of info on these books. (I’m an SC Stephens stalker ~ favorite author ever). Thank you Tamie for this wonderful article ~ I fell in love with Kellan way back when I first read Thoughtless. I hope you don’t mind that I share this article, which I could have written. Take care.

I’ve not seen any inspirational pics for this series, besides this one.
Where can I see your inspirations?
Katie ~ tweet me at Mich_Eck or email me at Michelle@literatiliteraturelovers.com, and I will forward the picture to you. I’m sorry that I am just now seeing your response. Please forgive me. S.C. is absolutely my favorite author of all time, and I truly stalk her.
Holy hell this is so the way I pictured him. He is one my fictional boyfriends too. Name please?????
Isn’t he just yummy? His name is Devin Paisley
Tamie I wanted to LICK MY COMPUTER, honestly I really did. I’m off to google Devin a bit more:)
Um…I might have done that myself
He’s so gorgeous!
He makes a great Kellan! Kellan is one of my top BB’s. Glad you love him too! Can’t wait for Reckless!!!!!
OMG and he’s South African so he has a sexy accent to top it all off! Officially drooling.
Kellan looks hot! I hadn’t heard of this book before, but now I’m intrigued. Thanks for sharing!
I am new to your blog as of today. I have already bookmarked it, drooled, laughed outloud (even though I’m at work), and decided Thoughless is definitely my next book. Conveniently I finished my last about midnight last night. Can’t wait to get out of work and get the munchkins to bed tonight!
We’re glad you found us, and we hope to see you regularly.
Thoughtless is such a fantastic book. I hope you love it as much as I do.
I read both books over the weekend! LOVED them!!! OMG Kellan! I pictured the guy you have pictured above and was so glad I saw this post before I read them. I can’t wait until 2013 for the 3rd. Ugh!
I’m so happy you loved them both, and I’m with you…March is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO far away.
[...] Ever since my friend Tamie over at Bookish Temptations cast her ideal Kellan, model Devin Paisley no one else will do. This is Kellan Kyle, hands down. I know there are many other names that have come up, one being Jared Leto. Even though I think Mr. Leto is beyond handsome, he is way too old to portray the `yummy` Kellan Kyle. So here is some pictures to wet your appetite. You can find Tamie`s post here http://bookishtemptations.com/2012/09/26/my-book-boyfriend-kellan-kyle-from-thoughtless-by-s-c-steph… [...]
I loveeeed the books. sigh kellan. I want reckless nao! OMG drool. you hit the nail on the head there. he just screams kellan. dang. you have a denny casting too? can you post that also?
Tamie,
I could NOT agree with you more, about Kellan Kyle!! I am almost as obsessed with Kellan Kyle, as much as I am with Professor Gabriel. I’ve been searching for guys who would “work” as Kellan for me and boy have you found him! Yahooo! I’ll have to do my research on Mr. Devin Paisley. In the meantime, I’ll continue drooling over Mr. David Gandy in my spare time.
Wow! Thanks a lot.
I totally get the obsession with both Gabriel and Kellan…me too, me too
I think Devin Paisley deserves to have his own section on Bookish Temptations. We have one for our “Professor” David Gandy, why not the hottest rock star on the the planet?
OMG what a hot guy he is! I need to read that book.
I’m finishing Beautiful Bastard (amazing!)
You should check out Thomas Beaudoin, he is sooo handsome…

Perfect Kellen. No one else will do.
