Not My Fault You Have Endless Eyes

Imagine going about your normal day, lunch with the girls or a night on the town and you see this guy. Not just any guy, but one that really grabs your attention. As you stare at him, he turns his head and your eyes collide.

Everything melts away. The feeling is so intense that for that moment of connection, your emotions cascade into overload. His gaze locks with yours. You watch as his eyes open wide, and linger, then travel to your lips and back.

His sensual, seductive, sultry glance melts your bones, weakens your knees and creates a "please rip off your clothes and have your way with me" response, as you gaze into eyes so beautiful you could get lost in them. Piercing, soulful, clear light eyes mesmerize and stop you in your tracks. His eyes slowly travel to your toes and back...

Have you ever been struck speechless when your gaze has locked with someone else's?

The clear, stunning eyes of model, Lionel Clerc, are what I imagine writers creatively try to lead our imaginations into feeling as much as seeing as they begin to make us fall-in-lust with their leading man at our first encounter with him.

While I get that the heavy-lidded, half-closed, squinty "bedroom eyes" look has it's place, in writing and in person, I find it less appealing (and a little suspect) than a wider-eyed, open gaze. An open eye connection can be much more bold, attractive, and reveal a knight-in-shining-armor type guy with nothing-to-hide appeal.

I love it when writers develop their characters so well that you can feel that look, feel that gaze and all your senses begin to tingle because you know what that look means.

It’s not my fault I fall for endless eyes, and I'm so happy when I discover a writer who knows most of us do.


Please comment and tell us a writer, a book, a character you've discovered that understands the part eyes play in attraction, seduction and the power of "endless eyes".

Have you Met Mr. Grey?

Fifty Shades of Grey
Have you had the pleasure of meeting Christian Grey?

Find out what your friends are talking about.  Fifty Shades of Grey will spice up your dreams, both day and night. Discovering the erotic secrets of Mr. Grey will have you wasting no time in devouring this trilogy from E. L. James.

I must say, Mr. Grey's "quirks" got to be a little too much, even "tamed down" for Ana's sake, and I'm hoping men don't really think this is what all women want behind closed doors. His choice of conquest (she's 22) and her inexperienced background (a virgin) I felt was a odd choice for Ana's character, but with no sexual past for her to have to explain...hummm.  With all the repetitive eye rolling, lip biting, frowning and smirking, too many chats with her inner goddess, and at times sophomoric writing, I wonder what the editor's job was on these books? This could have easily been one book instead of three, but why not draw out the pleasure and/or the profits?

I was glad to see Mr. Grey evolving in book two and the "play room" collecting dust was a welcome relief, but book three, I really struggled to care and to finish it. I have been an avid reader since I learned to read and devour everything from romance to, well, everything else. I have definitely read much better written books, have fallen for better developed characters with sensuous personalities, but I will admit, there is just something about Mr. Grey that was intriguing enough to follow him through to the end of book three. So, comments aside, Mr. Grey was an very interesting man.  

When I read, my imagination conjures up the characters from the author's hopefully detailed descriptions. Their face, body, walk, style, and personality develop - as always otherworldly, gorgeous, never ever destined to appear in real life people, of course. But, oh my! One day, I did happen to stumble upon my Christian Grey ("Ladies, OMG, Meet Mr. Grey") in a shades of grey photo that will render you speechless.  Isn't it time you met the Mr. Grey?
