Character Casting: Courage in the Kiss

Today, we'll be taking a peek at the dream character casting for Courage in the Kiss, by Elaine White.

Maxx

God, the man was gorgeous. In sunlight or in shadow, he was the most attractive man she'd ever met. He turned, on hearing the door open, and his features never changed. There was no smile or even an arch of those impeccably looked after eyebrows. Just nothing...as usual.

Still...Hadley almost lost herself to those blue eyes, to that natural upward tilt at the corner of his lips and the intensity of his gaze.

Hadley

Maxx smiled, looking forward to the game of cat and mouse he'd unwittingly begun to play with her. He caught her thick brown hair in his hand and pulled her down, until he could kiss those pink lips.

It was the first he'd noticed that she wasn't wearing any make-up. Yet, she was still, easily, the most attractive woman he'd ever known. He kissed her with desperation and need, devouring whatever he could of her.

Others

Other key players include:

Maxx's father, Emerson, who would be played by Ed Asner.

Micah, Maxx's little brother, who is seventeen and a keen observer. It would be awesome to have Callan McAuliffe play him.

As for Micah's troublesome best friend, Rowan, Colin Ford has the right attitude to bring off this character.

As a new addition, late into the story, the character of Ronnie creates an interesting development and is there to support Hadley through a difficult transition. Douglas Booth would be perfect for this side character.
