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

Adrian is such a fantastic and multi-faceted character. We meet him first as a young man that is a part of kidnapping Sophie, and later we find out that he's tricked her in another very important way. What's so great about this though is that Ringle draws the reader in with this character so much that none of this is really an issue. It's just one of those "Ah, ha ha ha, that Adrian is such a kidder." Those charming people can get away with that, and Adrian is definitely on the charming side. Said to be of olive skin, with black curly hair and dark eyes, he leaps off the page with a sultry and exotic handsomeness. He keeps this air of mischievousness throughout the story, but he is a sincere and kind-hearted guy.
This is what I said about Adrian in my review, "Adrian is such an endearing character with a touch of mischief. He's lonely and he wants his love. He has had a hard life yet he does what he can for others in the one real way that he can."

Quotes:
“Fine, I'm a stalker, FINE.”
“And he had a dog, a nice dog. He couldn’t be too evil or dangerous if he had such a great dog.”
“You’re going to kidnap me again?”
Adrian tried a smile. “No, I’ll ask you if you *want* to be kidnapped again.”
