If you’ve come looking for some hot guys, you’ve come to the right place. Welcome to the Alpha Male Blog Hop, where the guys are all hard, hot, handsome heroes.
Don’t we love our Alphas? The more commanding the better. Men who know what they want and then claim it. A dominant man is possibly the sexiest thing on earth–think Brad Pitt, Don Draper, Daniel Craig, Russell Crowe. If you’re old school–Sean Connery, Clark Gable, Daniel Day Lewis, Mel Gibson. What used to be called a “man’s man.” Makes my mouth water just thinking about them. 🙂
An alpha commands respect from both males and females. He exudes confidence. He is a problem-solver-usually with fists or weapons, but just as often with his intelligence. He may be brooding or brash, violent or tender, cunning or courageous. But in the end, men will follow him without question and women will beg for his touch. A hero for all time.
Let me introduce you to some of my Alpha Males, the heroes of three of my books:
Duncan Ferrers, the Marquess of Dalbury from Only Scandal Will Do. Duncan is a rake of
the first order, with a string of conquests and mistresses. He’s a skilled swordsman, having fought several duels and killing two men in the process. The air of command sits easily on his shoulders. No one dares deny him anything.
Until he meets Lady Katarina Fitzwilliam who denies him everything: her body, her respect, her heart. When Alpha Male meets Alpha Female, the sparks fly as fast as their swords.
Only Scandal Will Do is available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, ARe, and Lyrical Press.
In Betrothal, Sir Geoffrey Longford, a knight in the service of King Edward III of England, is a strong warrior. He’s seen battle often, fighting in the Hundred Year’s War or jousting for a heavy purse. Whatever the venue, Geoffrey’s skills with a sword have kept him safe and well provided. A born leader of men, he’s looked up to by other, more elevated nobles. He’s made a career of avoiding feminine entanglements–he wenches lustily with the best of them, but seeks no permanent attachment.
Enter Lady Alyse de Courcey, a waiting gentlewoman to the king’s daughter, and the woman his father has arranged for him to marry. Geoffrey’s smitten by the beautiful maid from their first meeting. But Lady Alyse has eyes only for another courtier. He must bring to bear all his charm and skill–both as warrior and ardent suitor–to win the lady’s heart without killing his best friend into the bargain.
Betrothal, Book One of Time Enough to Love, is set to release from Rising Phoenix Publications in late October.
And my final Alpha, Hunter Hopewell, is the mastermind of 7 Days of Seduction. He’s a
law student at California Berkeley, a man with a past, and one who knows what he wants in life. Her name is Ashley Thompson, a former student at Berkeley whose luscious body attracts Hunter like a lion to its prey. When he sees her potential for experimentation, he sweeps her off her feet (literally) and proposes an outrageous week of sexual adventure. Looking at Hunter’s gorgeous physique but unable to remember their first encounter, Ashley agrees to let him seduce her with sex. The question is, will she follow everywhere Hunter leads her?
7 Days of Seduction is set to release in late October from New Dawning International Bookfair.

Hmmm, I think my favorite trait in an alpha would have to be either his confidence or intelligence… both can be so sexy.
Thanks for being part of the blog hop and for your giveaway

I hate to pick just ONE trait but if I had to, I think it would be a snarky sense of humor, you know the sarcastic kind that makes you want to smack someone upside the head? Yep, I love it! 🙂
Thanks so much for being a part of the blog hop. It is my first but definitely not my last!

Alpha males are the best….strong, independent, fiercely protective, but on the inside they are nothing but a big ol’ teddy bear! I love the way their mouths talk filthy, but their eyes portray their sensitive sweet. They can be rough and tough in the bedroom, but still have the gentle caress of an attentive and protective lover. It’s all in the heart…..alpha males are the best!
Thanks for participating in the hop!

I love the brave and loyal traits along with the rest of the world, but I’m just as compelled by honesty, trustworthiness, and empathy for others. Beauty is nice, as well, but it often does not last. Character does.

I think a “Man’s man” is a dying breed these days. I agree Mel Gibson is a great alpha! I mean his war movies showed that. I love an alpha who is brave and loyal. Thanks for the giveaway.
