Fresh FIction Box Not To Miss
Karen Erickson | Sexy Alpha Heroes
Author Guest / April 29, 2012

A big thank you to Fresh Fiction for having me as a guest on their blog today! I have a confession: when I first started writing, I had a hard time creating an alpha hero. All of my heroes were more on the beta side. The overbearing, macho man didn’t appeal much to me. I wanted a softer, gentler version. Certainly not a wimp, because I do appreciate when a man can take charge, but I didn’t want some jerk bossing me around… Whoops. Sounds like I was taking this alpha hero thing awfully personal. Anyway, as time has passed, I’ve come to realize there’s something infinitely appealing about those alpha males. At least, in the fictional worlds we create or read. Living with one in the real world might be another story, but writing and/or reading about those sexy, strong heroes rushing in to save their heroines, I love it. And when they get all possessive and growly and say things like, “You’re mine,” or “You belong to me,” well. I love that even more. So I’ve deemed this the year of the alpha hero for me. I have not one but two new series chock full of them….
