Hot Summer Heroes Blog Hop

Hi all! Welcome to my stop of the Hot Summer Heroes Blog Hop hosted by Bella Media Management, Caris Roane and H.D. Thomson. The hop runs all week and you have a chance to win all kinds of fabulous prizes.

I’ve only just returned from the Authors After Dark Convention last night where hot heroes were on all our minds all the time.

It’s no secret that I love UBER alpha males. They may often come across as harsh while trying to be protective but it’s all part of the appeal for me. The more alpha they tend to be, the harder they fall when the right woman comes along. It gives me chills just thinking about it.

This kind of hero works really well in shifter romances and is very much part of why I love writing them so much. I’ll get to that gooey center eventually. *grins*

Can you sum up your favorite kind of hero in three words or less? Leave me a comment and you could win.

For my giveaway I am giving you reader’s choice of any shifter eBook from my backlist. Here is just a couple to choose from:

Lucas

Kira MacDonald is in trouble. Plagued by false visions and erotic dreams of a man she’s never met, she fears losing both her psychic powers and her sanity. The cure? Finding and bonding with her mate. The stubborn red-haired warrior might not want one, but fate has other plans, plans that include her rescuing Lucas Gunn.

As the Guardian of his shape-shifting clan, Lucas Gunn lived a quiet, solitary life. Until he was kidnapped, examined, and tortured. Now imprisoned, his only tie to the outside world is the memory of his dreams and the passionate woman who appears nightly in them. He thought she was nothing more than a vision. Then she came for him.

An uneasy alliance, a mating call that won’t be denied, rituals that must be honored, and unrelenting enemies who will stop at nothing to get what they want. It all comes together in the first of Eliza Gayle’s sensational Black Cougar Series. Passion and Pride. Duty and Danger. In the end, there’s really only one choice…for Lucas.

and

Frost Bitten

Resistance may be possible, but who are they kidding?

While on a search and rescue mission in the middle of a snowstorm, Seth and his twin Trent catch the scent of an unfamiliar shifter. Drawn to locate the source they hike deep into the woods to an abandoned cabin where they find an enticing little jaguar in the throes of heat.

Tired of being smothered by her five brothers and the pressure to mate, Daisy wanted nothing more than a week alone in the middle of freaking no where. The last thing she needed was a run in with two sexy as sin—and totally off limits—cougar shifters. Unfortunately, she’s not the kind of woman to leave them out in the cold.

Faced with the misery of unmet sexual desire or hot, no strings attached sex with two men… What’s a girl to do?

There are many more to choose from so please visit my books page for a full list of books available.

  10. Woohoo! Loving this hop! All those HOT sexy hero’s to drool over!
    A hero is HOT when he’s an alpha; (shifter, human, or vamp) tall, handsome, sexy, with a sense of humor, loyal, and a BAD ASS! He doesn’t want anyone to know that he is soft on the inside, especially for his woman. I couldn’t name just 3. hehe
