"The Hungarian" releases on 1 MAY through Desert Breeze, but you can win an ARC of the novel this week. The contest begins today and runs through Thursday, 22 APRIL. I'll announce the winner on 23 APRIL, Friday.
What's the story about? Count Matthias Duma harbors a dark secret, but when he meets a young British noblewoman, Katherine Archibald, he risks everything, including his secret, for her love.
So what do you have to do? Cast the Characters!
I'll put up two pics of two actors - one I cast as "Count Matthias Duma" from the Hungarian. I'll also put up two pics of two actresses, one I cast as "Katherine Archibald."
Pick the right combo - Who did I pick for Matthias? Katherine. Post your answers here in the blog. If you have both choices right, your name will go in the "pot" and I'll pick the winner out of the pot on Friday Morning.
Okay, let's have fun:
Who is COUNT MATTHIAS DUMA?
CHOICE #1
Jonathan Rhys-Meyers
CHOICE #2
Ralph Fiennes
Who is KATHERINE ARCHIBALD?
CHOICE #1
Anne Hathaway
Choice #2
Justine Cotsonas
Good luck in the Contest!

Ralph Fiennes is my choice for the Hungarian. His eyes seem just the right color and also they have a haunted look.
ReplyDeleteI think Justine Cotsonas would make a good Katherine Archibald. She has that shy demure look that a girl of that age should have. Anne Hathaway semms much to bold to fit the role.

Steph,
ReplyDeleteI felt like I should know the answer to this question, but I have no idea. I see you've admired the qualities of both male lead choice 1 and female lead choice 1 in previous posts, so that's my vote. Jonathan and Anne

I myself like Ralph and Justine too. I've not read an excerpt yet, but they would be my choice for any romance story.
ReplyDeleteI'd go with Meyers and Cotsonas. A perfect combo.
ReplyDeleteThanks,

I like Ralph Fiennes and Anne Hathaway, Ralph has the light eyes like on the cover & Anne has such a bubbly personality that even Matthias can't brood over his secret.

I'd have to say Fiennes Justine. Just because I like how they look. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if it's the picture you chose of Anne Hathaway or not, but based on the itty bit of a teaser you offered, I'll have to go with Justine Cotsonas as Katherine.
ReplyDeleteAs for Matthias, it's the eyes.(BTW the cover is gorgeous!!) I'll have to go with Ralph Fiennes. Yum...I mean yeah I think it's a great amtch *G*
I would have to pick Jonathan Rhys-Meyers for Count Matthias Duma, and Justine Cotsonas for Katherine Archibald. I think they would look good together but hey that's just my opnion.
ReplyDeleteBig Drum roll please.......dadadadadda....
ReplyDeleteThe winner of the ARC for "The Hungarian" is:
SILVER WOLF!! Big Congrats.
I cast Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as Count Matthias Duma. I loved his work on the Tudors. He smoldering and moody very well. He also carries nobility well. He's physical and active. He brings all these qualities to my Matthias.
I cast Justine Cotsonas for Katherine. She has the look - the long curly hair and she can bring a quiet vulnerability to Katherine as well. Katherine also has a quiet strength. Justine is perfect!
Thanks to Everyone who left a comment. I really appreciate it.
