I love this theme! There are so many amazing leading men in the literary world, but some piece of heart is always given to the third side of the love love triangle, the one that doesn’t get chosen.
Let’s list them! =D
This week’s results:
Rejected Love Interests (as in the other guy got the girl) = 9 (56%)
Favorite Book Titles = 7 (43%)
The theme for today is:
Rejected Love Interests (as in the other guy got the girl)
But first, a little bit about this feature and the rules to join in…
Every Sunday I will post a TOP 5 list on the blog. It can be about anything and every week I'll have a new theme {You can vote on next week’s theme on my left sidebar!} and I will ad the Mr.Linky bellow the post so you can do a list with the theme and add you link to it.

This week’s theme is Favorite Book Boyfriends! Part II
*in no particular order
Puck
(Iron Fey Series by Julie Kagawa)
Puck! Who is a fan of the series and doesn’t love Puck? Impossible! LOL
Jace
(Shifters Series by Rachel Vincent)
This was one of the hardest Triangles ever! I could have seen Faithe with both men and Jace was amazing!
Sam
(Sookie Stackhouse Series by Charlaine Harris)
Eric or Bill?? Who cares, I want Sam! LOL
Gale
(Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins)
I was Team Peeta all the way, but Gale was so swoon worthy!
Chuckie & Christopher
(Katherine “Kitty” Katt Series by Gini Koch)
So many hot men and Kitty got 3 options… I could def be happy with a sandwich of both of these! =D

Thanks so much for tuning in and I’ll see you soon!
xoxo,
great list lol
I stopped the shifter series when Faythe slept with Jace just bc she thought Marc was dead, but glad to know she ended up with Marc anyway (not that I didn't like Jace, it was more Faythe's decision to sleep with him that irked me).
And you can argue that Sookie WILL end up with Sam since it's pretty much all but hinted at by Charlaine who has confirmed she won't be with a vampire because she intends for sookie to have a family XD
Puck was one of my favorite rejected guys ever! I also love Ren from Wolfsbane and Simon from TMI. :)
I have a top 5 suggestion! How about top five feminine sword wielders? :)
Nice topic this week :)I of course thought of two books right away Touched by an Alien and Double Cross. :)
Oh, the heartbreak! I like all of these guys, and I really kinda hope they all found fictional happy endings with some other girl ... Chuckie, Christopher, Gale and Jace especially!
For Sookie Stackhouse, actually I prefer if she ended up with John Quinn! :)
Ooh niiice picks Larissa!! We have a few of the same! Forgot about the guys from Charlaine's books! Not sure who I liked more though!
Ah Sam, I'll always be a fan of his. Sookie totally should have chosen him instead. Love this top 5!
Ooh, this one's hard, as I don't read a lot of love triangle-y books. But I'll try!
1) Niall from Melissa Marr's Ink Exchange
2) Neville Longbottom. The way JKR was writing the books (and *not* judging from the movies), I always thought he'd end up with Luna Lovegood.
3) Accolon from Marion Zimmer Bradley's Mists of Avalon. Both he and Morgaine got screwed over by Guinevere.
4) Adrial from C.L. Wilson's Tairen Soul series. An immortal elf finds his one true love only a week after she marries a cruel man in an arranged marriage. *sobs!*
5) Cadvan from Alison Croggon's Pellinor series. There are two women the author introduces that he'd be a good match with, and he doesn't end up with either!
Smiles!
Lori
Yes Jace should have been with her! *sobs*
@Camille
yeah Faythe was a tough heroine to love LOL

@Lieder

@Becky
NICE!!! agreed! =D
@Danielle
I hope so too =/
@Cherry

@Jessica
Thanks hon! yeah, its hard to pick! =P
@Heather
me too!!! glad Im not alone! =D
@Lori
The only series I've read from those is HP and I love Neville =P
@Blodeuedd
Jace rocks! =P
Great list! I felt bad for Puck and Gale, but I guess someone's gotta lose!
Awe! I feel sorry for these rejected loves! I really wish the authors would write a story for them so they can have a happy ending too.
