I love alpha males, and I love to write about them. The ultimate
hero in romance fiction is the alpha male... powerful, mysterious and totally
attractive to the heroine.
So what is an alpha male?
The
alpha male is the "man with the plan," and women are wired to go for
this type of guy. Look through the pages of my books
and you will find cowboy, current and former military, lots of law enforcement,
even some corporate icons. But they all have the same thing in common–they are
alpha males. He
is sexy, confident, great in and out of bed
The
term "alpha male" is sometimes applied to humans to refer to a man
who is powerful through his courage and a competitive, goal-driven, "take
charge" attitude. Alpha males take
greater risks. With their bold approach and confidence "alpha males"
are often described as charismatic.
They are aggressive, results-driven
achievers who insist on top performance from themselves and others. Courageous and self-confident, they are turned on by
bold, innovative ideas and ambitious goals, and they pursue their objectives
with tenacity and an urgent sense of mission. Their intense competitive drive
keeps them focused on the gold - silver or bronze simply won't do - and they're
always keeping score. Often charismatic figures who command attention, they
exert influence even when they're low-key and inconspicuous.
Whether
heading a band of warriors, bringing a vital new product to market, guiding a
team to glory or steering a giant conglomerate, alphas are hardwired for
achievement and eager to tackle challenges that others find intimidating. Along
the way, they inspire awe and admiration - and sometimes fear and trembling.
Wherever they are and whatever they do, they stand out from the crowd, usually
leaving an indelible impression on those whose lives they touch.
So
next time you want a healthy dose of the ultimate male, the one who makes all
your nerve endings sizzle and fulfills all your fantasies, climb into the pages
of a romance novel. That’s what I do!

Desiree, I haven't read any of your books yet but they are certainly on my TBR list....they sound really awesome...
your books are on my TBR list Desiree! who doesnt love an alpha male!!
I love alpha males but they have to have problems!! Then I can mend them and all is well with the world. Alpha females, I'm far less keen on. Probably because I'm not one!
Mmmm...Alpha males! Love them. I haven't read any of yours yet, Desiree, but you are most definitely on the tbr list! Sounds amazing.

Thanks for the great comments. I'm happy to share my sexy alphas with you.
Er, well, um, I like the thought of an alpha male, but being with one would result in someone's death, most likely. See, I think I might be alpha. Okay, who am I kidding? I'm alpha all the way. But I know how to share command... in some things. If I was with a guy who said, "This is what we are doing and you have no say." My response would be: "And where would you like me to put your ass after I've handed it to you." :D

Marci, you are just hysterical! But my alphas know how to treat them women. The are dominant but not controlling and they like women equally as strong.
Alpha males, lots of those on my flights. They dont always come with the full package though, but when they do. Happy Days...
