Sidekick Showcase (previously known as Sidekick Saturday) is a weekly bookish meme, hosted 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! 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 this week's type
• Share a picture (if possible) 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
• Put your link in the Linky thing and comment

This week, Jaclyn has chosen Cowboy as the theme. Once again, I was torn over whether to go literal or metaphorical with this theme. In the end, I went with...
I chose Carter as a cowboy because he's a maverick. He's a greasy-haired, grunge-wearing, chain smoking, ____ drinking angel! He's best friends with an demon. He gets things done and he does things his own way. He's always so witty. And I love him! ;)
"Love is rarely flawless," Carter pointed out. "Humans delude themselves by thinking it has to be. It is the imperfection that makes love perfect."
"Georgina, sometimes I think you might be worth following around, just to hear what you'll say next."
"Even new vampire hunters wise up eventually."
"I forget, Georgina rushes in where angels fear to tread."
"Love doesn't make angels fall, Georgina. If anything, love can have quite the opposite effect."
"No one is beyond being loved."
