His dark brows, and eyelashes, and the perfect painter’s-portrait mouth were visible and she smiled at the sight of them before her. Her smile broadened, as she thought of this epitome of masculinity exposing one charming dimple at his left cheek when he first smiled at her.”

“He was no less than entirely, completely, astonishingly magnificent! He wore an amused grin as he looked up at her and she figured he’d grown at least three inches since she’d last seen him! The expanse of his shoulders was much broader than what it had been four years previously and his perfect musculature was apparent even for his jeans and somewhat tight t-shirt. His jaw was squared, his face wider, his eyebrows thicker, and his hands were larger, rougher—the hands of a man instead of a teenage boy. For all the ruggedness of his maturity, for all the awesome attractiveness of his face and form, his eyes, however, were the same—dark blue mirrors, accentuated by thick, dark lashes…”

Physical Description:

“…a tall, dark-haired man, large in stature and astoundingly more attractive…than any man whom (she) had theretofore laid eyes upon. In those brief moments, (she) was struck by his carriage, his feature of face and form. His jaw was firmly set, masculinely squared, his cheekbones high and well-defined. His mouth…flaunted strong lips that were not too thin, but rather perfectly chiseled. His eyes were the darkest of brown shaded by thick, black lashes which were striking, for though his hair was dark, its shade was a hue of brown like his eyes, but lighter than his lashes and brows. His hands were clasped at his back, but it was apparent that his arms were finely and massively built for his sleeves were fitted with an uncommon snugness just below each broad shoulder. He wore a white shirt, red cravat, black vest and coat, and black breeches, with brilliantly polished black boots that cuffed just below his knee.”

His shoulders were broad—the muscles in his upper arms well defined…In that one lingering moment—however brief—she saw his eyes were the darkest brown she had ever seen—so brown it was difficult to discern his pupil…”

“Swaggart Moretti was, drop-dead gorgeous!

He wore his usual work attire, worn-out jeans, basketball shoes, and a white t-shirt, which did little to hide the perfectly chiseled torso beneath.”

Parents: Vernon Josiah Evans (Father), Ada Jane Bailey Evans (Mother)

Siblings: William Slater Evans

Occupation: Cattle Rancher, Horse Breader

Etymology:

First name Thomas—pronounced THAM-us—Greek form of the Aramaic name meaning “twin.” The meaning of Tom’s first name is ironic, considering the fact that Tom and his brother Slater are in truth unusually similar in their physical appearance. It’s only Slater’s initial angry, frowning, weathered demeanor in Weathered Too Young that masks the extraordinary parallel of Tom and Slater’s looks at first. (“A second man, looking quite similar to the first, only with a welcoming grin and over all pleasant countenance, came to the door.” ~Weathered Too Young.) Tom’s father chose “Thomas” for his second son, in honor of his own brother who was killed at Gettysburg.

Middle name Milton—pronounced MIL-t?n—From an English surname meaning “Mill Town” in Old English. Tom’s mother chose his middle name as a tribute to one of her favorite poets, John Milton—the author of Paradise Lost.

Surname Evans—pronounced EV-uhnz—Evans is a patronymic surname meaning “son of Evan.” The given name Evan derives from the Welsh name Ifan, a cognate of John, meaning “gracious gift of Jehovah.”

Additional Details/Quotes:

Marcia Lynn McClure says the name “Tom” was derived simply because she always liked the name. Growing up, she knew a boy/man named “Tom” who was handsome, very playful and charismatic. When McClure was sixteen, the “Tom” from McClure’s real life, once risked violent reprimand by authoritative on-lookers and stole a kiss from McClure in a very public venue. The “Tom” from McClure’s past is also represented in The Visions of Ransom Lake—where his true surname appears as the surname of one of the secondary characters.

His revealed broad shoulders, and bronzed, sculpted torso presented a far more intimidating character, and Cristabel was again struck by the knowledge she was in the hands of pirates.”
