GUYS! DANIEL HAS BEEN FOUND! *throws confetti* His name is Collin Atkinson and he will be gracing the cover of Frankie Rose's next book in the Hope series, Eternal Hope as Daniel. I think he's a fantastic choice. Very swoonworthy, just look at those eyes. If you haven't read Sovereign Hope you are missing out on one of the best paranormal YA's I have read. Make sure you go and like his modelling page on Facebook and try not to drool.
Today is also his birthday so make sure you wish him a
Here is a quick interview a few lucky bloggers put together so you can get to know him a little better.
Interview with Collin Atkinson-
model, actor and the new hottie who will be gracing the cover of Eternal Hope,
the second book in Frankie Rose’s Hope Series!!
Frankie Rose asked her readers to
help her find the perfect guy to become swoon worthy Daniel Montisauri, and now
Operation: Find Daniel is officially over! She would like to thank all of the
awesome girls, who took part in the operation, please accept this ten minute
chat with Collin is your reward!
What appealed to you about being
the cover model for Daniel?
I thought it was a great
opportunity and I have a love for fiction, well anything that can get you out
of your mind and into someone else’s perspective.
Other than modeling I really enjoy
medicine and helping people, I’m still in school working toward my biology
degree at the moment actually but if I was to still work in the arts I would
love to be an actor.
Girls in the States want to know... Boxers or briefs?
Briefs definitely, better support ;)
If you could have dinner with
anyone (dead, alive or fictional), who would it be and what would be the first
thing you ask them?
I would have to say Zeus; I’m a
sucker for Greek mythology and would love to ask him about all the stories that
went untold.
What sort of modeling do you normally do? Is this your
first book cover?
Yes this will be my first book cover, I usually do commercial and
editorial modeling along with some events which is why I was so excited for
this opportunity!
What hobbies do you enjoy?
I’m a little nerdy actually, I really enjoy videogames, horror
movies, and building computers but I’m from Florida so I also like
wakeboarding, boating, camping and all that stuff as well.
Do you see yourself modeling 5 years from now? If not,
what are your plans?
I hope so if the market still calls for it, I would really like to
be acting at that point, hopefully on a television series!
Hi
Collin, Thanks for agreeing to this interview! We in the Book Blogging world
love to get to know the guys gracing the covers of our favourite books! Is it
weird that your purrrdy face is going to be out there as the physical
embodiment of uber hot guy, Daniel Montisauri? And are you prepared for a whole
heap of fangirls?
I think I’m ready. I hope so anyway, is there a way to prepare for that? Haha, I think
it will be a little weird because many of the people that have seen my photos
are local and this will be on an entirely different scale, I think it’s awesome
this series already has a fan base. I’m
excited though, I think the book is great and I’m really happy to be working
with Frankie!
Do
you enjoy reading? Have you read the Hope series? If No, then do you intend to
read the book your face will be plastered all over the front of?
I love reading, it’s something I think
everyone should do more of, helps you escape from reality and yes, I really
enjoyed it and I feel I can relate to Daniel very easily.
What was your reaction when
Frankie Rose asked you to be her Daniel for the Eternal Hope cover?
My first thought was holy crap! Then it
was…wait is this real! Once she responded I couldn’t wait to get involved
further!
Have you always wanted to be a
model? And are there any big modeling campaigns that we would recognize
you from?
Actually up until about a year ago I never
even considered it but a friend of the family told me I should try it and had a
photographer reach me on facebook. I don’t have any major campaigns at the
moment but I will be doing a shoot for the marketing of Abercrombie this
September!
Daniel has been described as
brooding and mysterious, while also being vulnerable and
completely lovable at the same! Think you share any of his
personality traits?
I would say I’m very similar to him,
especially when you first meet me I’m pretty quiet but as I open up I’m very
easy to talk to and have a very strong love for all my friends and I think that
goes both ways.
One of my favourite aspects of
Daniel's character is his obsession with his engines. What about you, ever feel
the need to get greasy-with-it under the hood of your car? Or are you strictly
a lets-take-it-to-the-mechanic kind of man?
I actually drive a pickup truck, a black ford
f-150 my uncle gave me when I was 16, that truck is my baby haha. I don’t work
on my engine per se but I do like to change my own oil, fuel filters, the
basics, not on Daniel’s level but definitely not taking it to mechanic right
away.
And finally, Collin, the
question that thousands of girls, women, and maybe even a few men, will want to
know now that you're gracing the cover of Eternal hope: ARE YOU SINGLE?
Sadly no, I am taken at the moment hahaha!
Sovereign Hope is out now! Eternal
Hope is set to be released late October, make sure you catch it. Not only will
Collin be appearing on the cover of the next book, but he will also be
featuring in the book trailer too! You can like his page and drop by to say
hello.
