The Alpha Male Blog Hop
On to the topic of the day - Alpha Heroes.
Linda Howard writes some of my favorite alpha heroes, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention Anne Stuart. When I think of extreme alphas, Anne's book always pop into my mind. Her heroes often cross the line enough to be considered villains. If you like your alpha's bad, you have to check out her books.
I've got my own "bad boy" in Mafia Secret, my upcoming romantic suspense, in Marco Santos. Nothing like being in the mob to make sure the hero crosses the line often and with ease, but as with many alphas, it takes the heroine to bring out his softer and lighter side. But he is who is - and I like him that way.Mafia Secret is coming very soon from Tell-Tale Publishing.
***
Lessa Noelle grew up never knowing she
was the illegitimate daughter of a mafia king pin. After his murder, she
finds herself a surprise heiress immersed in the dangerous world of
organized crime with only the guidance of Marco Santo her father’s
second in command to help her. Marco searches for her father’s killer and tries to keep the realities of his life from touching her. An uneasy attraction blossoms between the two. An already dangerous situation turns volatile when a killer turns his attention to Lessa.

Why I love Alpha Males is no real surprise! The perfect Alpha Male for me could be a Vampire, a Scottish Laird, an English Rogue/Gentleman, a Werewolf or Shape-shifter, or a Knight. He’s the rogue who thinks he can’t be reformed into a gentleman. He’s the rough and scarred Scottish laird that has a heart of gold. He’s the werewolf or shape-shifter that needs to heal an aching heart because it took him years to find his true mate. He’s the vampire who has waited decades for that special someone’s blood to sing to him and wake him up. And he’s the knight who can defeat the enemy with a quick swing of his sword, but can’t see the love in front of his face. My Alpha Male has eyes that can see into your soul and are as blue as the sea, or as black as a storm. He’s tall and brooding. His heart can enfold you into its grasp and make you fall in love when he gives it to you freely and completely. He is protective and passionate. In the end he is the one that makes your heart jump and butterflies fly in your stomach, and still kiss you until your legs melt!

I love my Alpha Males. They keep me coming back for more.
ReplyDeleteI Love that they are strong, loyal, confident, and how protective they are of their woman even when they KNOW she can kick some major ass.
My favorite “Alpha Male” is Smitty from Shelly Laurenston’s The Beast In Him”. He is a real laid back kind of alpha male until you threaten someone he cares about. Then all bets are off and that BEAST comes out to kick ass.
