Get a look at the Portrait of an Unlikely Affair characters in AI....




Hello Portrait of an Unlikely Affair Fans! So, I've seen what our main characters Brian Ridley and Avonlea Stone look like in my mind for 35 years. Recently, I have discovered AI and Text to Image feature. It made me very curious.
Since I know Brian and Avonlea so well in my mind, I decided to see what AI thinks they look like. Many readers say that AI got it pretty close to how they see them. Except, my faithful readers are quick to point out that this 'version' of Brian is not from the first two books, when he is recovering. They seem to point out that this version is likely him in The Ghost of Oscar, which is book 3 of the series. And that is a very valid point.
When we meet Brian Ridley, he tends to wish to blend in. He is a good looking man, with gray eyes and dark brown hair that tends to have red highlights. If Brian's older brother looks like their father, and his older sister looks like their mother, then Brian is the blend of the two. Women do notice him, flirt with him, and attempt to get his attention, but he doesn't notice. He knows the truth behind himself -- he is a classified weapon who is not meant to walk among the world, have relationships, and carry on a normal life. He also carries a terminal label from a rare disease that has no cure. He has focused his entire being on being able to do his job -- In fact his whole focus is completing the one mission he failed and he knows has limited time left. He's had a hard life, one that would break anyone, and yet he still stands, with limited days ahead.
Avonlea Stone. She's a celebrity, an actress, but as we meet. her, we learn that she's not what we expect fame to be. She's been in the spotlight the majority of her life. Her hair color does change, mostly leaning toward the lighter side with blonde highlights, but her natural color is light brown. She is beautiful, there's no doubting, with green eyes. When she first meets Brian, she is dressed very casually, but not exactly "movie star casual" as you would imagine from today's stars. She keeps herself looking as a normal person would dress, without the obvious 'look at me I'm famous' accessories that come stars often bear, even when casual. It seems to me that she does consider herself a 'normal human being' and has a good heart, expecting nothing in return.
So, nothing about these two screams "Meant to Be!!!" does it?
How does a down-to-Earth yet popular celebrity fall for a classified weapon with no charm and no people skills?
