If you're a bird, I'm a bird.

With so many Nicholas Sparks' movies out there, and another one recently released, it's about time we had a decent ranking of the gorgeous leading men. If only it weren't so hard to choose!

10. Kevin Costner, Message in a Bottle

Warner Bros.

Not to say this isn't a great love story and that Garret Blake isn't a great character, but I think I'd prefer to read the book. Sorry, Kevin Costner.

9. Richard Gere, Nights in Rodanthe

Warner Bros.

Everyone loves a Diane Lane/Richard Gere collaboration and a story of renewed love.

8. Shane West, A Walk to Remember

Warner Bros.

Swoon, Landon Carter was such a cutie. He stood by Jamie's side despite her illness. Ugh, I just can't.

7. Luke Bracey, The Best of Me

Relativity Media

Fresh off the big screen, Luke Bracey is all set to steal our hearts as young Dawson in The Best of Me.

6. Josh Duhamel, Safe Haven

Relativity Media

I mean, if he asked me to stay I'm pretty sure I wouldn't go anywhere else for the rest of my life...

5. James Marsden, The Best of Me

Relativity Media

Those sparkling blue eyes could probably entice me to do anything. Welcome to the Nicholas Sparks club, James Marsden!

4. Liam Hemsworth, The Last Song

Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

In my mind, Miley and Liam stay Ronnie and Will and they live happily ever after. He's just too beautiful for any other scenario.

3. Channing Tatum, Dear John

Screen Gems

Magic Mike leaves little to of Channing Tatum's hot body to the imagination, but playing John shows us the sensitive side we all really want in our men, right?

2. Zac Efron, The Lucky One

Warner Bros.

Zac Efron as a dog-loving marine helping out on a farm? What more could anyone possibly want?

1. Ryan Gosling, The Notebook

New Line Cinema

Does this choice even need an explanation? Basically, I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me...every day, Ryan Gosling.
