Over here, we like all types of men. Sci-fi guys. Chubby men. Even men who aren't real. Like these fictional heartthrobs from our favorite works of literature. We totally recall laying in our beds, curled up with our books, blushing at anything that even resembled sex. Years (or months, in some cases) later, we're still hot for them. Whether they're tragically flawed antiheroes or dashing leading men, these dudes all share one trait: They're timeless pieces of sexy, sexy ass.
15. Dr. Carlisle Cullen, "Twilight." Forget Edward, the everywoman's heartthrob. We want the dad with the ageless features and the medical degree.
14. Jay Gatsby, "The Great Gatsby." We'd seduce him just to see what his opulent, 1920s, dripping-in-money bedroom looked like. Hell, we'd even let him call us Daisy.
13. Mr. Darcy, "Pride & Prejudice." He's got the silent-but-sexy thing goin' on. Plus, when he's rude and standoffish to Elizabeth Bennett, it makes us want to rip that double-breasted coat off his tight little bod.
12. Ned Nickerson, "Nancy Drew." Oh, Ned. You are so clueless yet such a catch. Age about 10 years, then let's get crazy in the back of Nancy's Roadster. She never has to know ...
11. Atticus Finch, "To Kill a Mockingbird." It's Atticus's stick-to-his-guns personality that makes us want him to glower at us from across a courtroom. Plus, post-bang, he'd actually be able to hold an interesting conversation.
10. Heathcliff, "Wuthering Heights." So brooding. So dark. So smoldering sexy. Even if he went all bipolar on us, let's be honest: Crazies are the best in bed.
9. "James Bond." OK, OK. So we'd be just another chick in Bond's harem, but that's fine, The accent. The Aston Martin. The a-hole tendencies. He can double-ohhhh-seven us any day, anytime.
8. Holden Caulfield, "The Catcher in the Rye." So technically having sex with a 16-year-old would be rape, but as soon as the talkative, manic depressive hits legal age, we're so hitting that.
7. Phantom, "Phantom of the Opera." Yes, we'd choose the totally creepy disfigured ghost over boring Raoul any day. Sure, he might frighten us, but at least we'd get to see his dungeon and torture chamber. Which might be fun.
6. Aragorn, "Lord of the Rings." He's a rugged warrior, yet incredibly modest. And with those rugged I'm-even-sexy-when-I-sweat good looks, we'd throw Arwen over a cliff for a piece of that.
5. Gilbert Blythe, "Anne of Green Gables." After an exhausting day of tending to the ailments of the country folk, we'd tend to the all the needs of the dedicated doc. If you know what we mean.
4. Noah Calhoun, "The Notebook." We totally admit we're half-basing this off the movie adaptation starring smokin' hot, shirtless Ryan Gosling. (But, really, can you blame us?) Six words. Make-up sex in the rain.
3. Logan, "Babysitter's Club" series. If we were Mary Ann, heck, if we were any of the babysitters, we totally would've invited Logan over to "help" us babysit after the kids went to sleep.
2. "Macbeth." Romeo = too dramatic. Hamlet = too weak. But Macbeth is all forceful-like. As soon as he had his mind made up he's getting in our pants, he's getting in our freakin' pants. And hello, we'd totally calm those nightmares of his.
1. Rhett Butler, "Gone with the Wind". Frankly, my dear, we don't give a damn ... how many glasses of brandy it takes to get you in bed. You will ravish us the way only a Southern gentleman knows how.

My suggestion for this list isn't exactly a classic like many of them. (Even though Twilight to me is overrated. Vampires aren't real, never were and never will be. At least most books use real species like say humans.)
Anyway, where are some of the grown detectives? I suggest Richard S Prather's Shell Scott. Eternally 30! How would ya like that?

YES! Let's not forget George Weasley, too. Who doesn't love a funny guy?

I had the hugest crush on Ron when I first started reading the books, but Rupert Grint kinda ruined him for me. I love BOTH Weasley twins (because, really, who can choose ONE of them? That's ridiculous!) and I've always had a thing for Gilbert Blythe. Freakin' delicious. >.> Call me crazy, but the adult Edmund in the Narnia series always kinda got me too. Quiet and brooding. Yummo.

Nathan Rahl, The Sword of Truth series. Not only is he gorgeous, but also experienced, slightly crazy, and confident.

Def.Hamlet is the best Shakespeare character. Even if he's batshit crazy.

Sooo with this. Macbeth is just a poser, Hamlet's where it's at.
(Why no, David Tennant has nothing to do with his opinion...)

Suggestion, let's scrap Ned from this list and replace him with Frank, Joe or Fenton Hardy. I would suggest Tony Prito but these characters are all basically main characters so one of those first three is the option. I personally would take Joe he's more fun.

I'm such a nerd, but Duncan Idaho from the Dune books is my hero. And I'd take Lestat over a sparkly vamp any day.

Aragon hasn't showered in weeks. I don't find this sexy. Also, Holden Caulfiield is an institutionalized youth. Any person found to have sexual relations with this individual needs to be incarcerated.

ummm..no offense...but Rhett Butler was NOT a southern gentleman. He was, in fact, a carpetbagging Yankee. And Macbeth couldn't even get it up unless his wife "whipped" him into a frenzy. Maybe y'all need to re-read some of your books.

Megaera- Rhett Butler was from the south-Charleston to be exact moved up north then returned to the south near the end of the war. and he was never a carpetbagger, he was a blockade runner- maybe you should re-read some of your books and not only watch the movie....no offense
