I know many writers who collect photos of who they would cast as their heroes and heroines before they start writing so they have a strong sense of what their characters look like. I normally don’t do that. Instead I start with general ideas about height, weight, hair and eye color because I like to leave it to the reader to fill in that picture in a way that pleases them. So when I thought of Jackson Whitaker, the hero in COLD CASE REOPENED, I pictured a tall, leanly muscled man with close-cropped sandy brown hair and gray eyes. Who do you picture? Josh Holloway? Jensen Ackles?

P.S. – Here’s a teaser from when Rhea first meets Jackson!
- It wasn’t room service. It was six-plus feet of lethal male, dressed in police blues, with a white Stetson held in hands that he shifted uneasily on the brim. He had shortly cropped sandy-brown hair that screamed former military and eyes the gray of lake waters on a dreary day. He clenched and unclenched his chiseled jaw as he stood there, obviously hesitant, before he finally said, “You should be more careful and check to see who it is before you open the door.”
Anger ignited instantly at his chastisement. “I was expecting room service. Not the police.”
