Sidekick Showcase [36] - One Third of a Love Triangle


Sidekick Showcase, previously known as Sidekick Saturday, is a weekly bookish meme, hosted here by Jaclyn at JC's Book Haven. There are many secondary characters that are as great as the primaries. In some cases, the sidekicks actually steal the show and you like them better than the heroine or hero. Maybe they didn't have enough page time for how great they were. Anyone can play along! I will post my Sidekicks on Saturday, then whichever day during the week that you would like to post yours, you can put your link in on my page. Just do the following:

• Choose a sidekick *or someone other than the hero or heroine* that you would like to put in the spotlight that fits in the week's topic
• Share a picture (if you can) and information about the character
• Give the title and author of a book the character can be found in
• Please don't include too many spoilers when describing why the character is such a great sidekick
• The day of your post, put your link in below and grab the code for your post so you can see the others that post their's throughout the week as well

August Themes:

This week is One Third of a Love Triangle

My choice is Lucas Parker
The Shadow Falls Series by C.C. Hunter

Lucas knew Kylie when she was a younger girl so he has a connection with her that Derek doesn't have. Derek is the other guy in Kylie's life and he's a fae. Lucas is a werewolf. Both guys fight hard for her attention and have good and bad attributes in my opinion. This is actually one series where I am unable to choose who I want her to end up with (I haven't read the newest one in the series so this one may have given a more definitive answer to that question). The reason I'm highlighting Lucas is because I really like his character. He's so hard to read - very mysterious. He's very good-looking, saves Kylie's life on occasion, and shows his good and bad sides equally. I like knowing flawed characters. He may not be the one to end up with Kylie in the end, but I appreciate this love triangle and I understand why Kylie has such a hard time choosing between the two guys.  

Quotes:


Awake at Dawn-
“She leaned into him to soak up his warmth.
"You are so hot," she said.
"It's about time you noticed," he teased.



Whispers at Moonrise -
“Boy trouble, huh?"
"Boy catastrophe is more like it. I'm not sure I can do this."
"Do what?" Concern sounded in Holiday's voice.
"Do Lucas," Kylie said.
Holiday made a funny face and raised one eyebrow.”



Born at Midnight-
“Just because a guy rings your bell, doesn't mean you have to toot his horn.”




Born at Midnight-
“Kylie watched as his shirttail upward, exposing a very hard abdomen. The hem of his shirt inched higher, and she took in the cutest inny belly button she'd ever seen. And then his chest. Solid. Hard. A few drops of water glistened against his skin. Her heart beat to the sound of passion again.”



Taken at Dusk-
“I’d kill for you, Kylie Galen. But more than that, I’d die for you.”

She felt a tear roll down her cheek. “You’d better not die on me, Lucas Parker.”
