A Hero's Blog Hop: My Heroes and Why I Love Them #HeroHop



Friends, I'm super excited to welcome you all to A Hero's Blog Hop. Starting today and ending on July 31st, over 100 Authors and Bloggers will share their favorite things about romance heroes, a character post from them, and what we love about romance and men in general.

We have THREE Grand Prizes and many authors are offering their own prizes. The more you hop, the more you win!

Why I love Heroes

My name is Kristine Cayne and I'm a hero addict.They can be dark or not, military or ordinary, covert or superstar. That doesn't matter. What does matter is that they must be alpha. Yes, alpha heroes are my drug of choice.

I love writing about strong men who are willing to lay everything on the line for the woman they love. Men who might chose not to show their feelings or emotions, but who aren't afraid to do it when the time is right. Their lives are raw, often violent, and they are forced to making difficult decisions that sometimes cross ethical lines, in order to do what needs to be done.

A few months ago, I wrote a post for Black Velvet Seductions called "He's an Alpha Not an Ass." I think it sums up very well why I love heroes, specifically alpha heroes :)

Meet My Heroes

Nic Lamoureux

Nic is the hero of Deadly Obsession, the first book in my Deadly Vices romantic suspense series.

Nic's perfect movie star life is shattered by a stalker who threatens any woman who gets close to him. When he meets photographer Lauren James, the attraction is instant--and mutual. She's exactly the sort of woman he craves, but the stalker makes it deadly clear Lauren is the competition. And the competition must be eliminated.

Deadly Obsession is currently on sale in ebook format for only 99 cents! Get Deadly Obsession here: Amazon ebook, Amazon print, Amazon UK, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, All Romance eBooks, Kobo, iTunes/Apple USA, Diesel, Sony.






Rémi Whitedeer

Meet Rémi, the hero of Deadly Addiction, the second book in my Deadly Vices romantic suspense series.

Alyssa Morgan is a maverick cop with nothing to lose. Rémi Whitedeer is a native warrior with everything on the line... Rife with crime and drugs, Rémi's home, the Blackriver Reservation, is a powder keg. When a radical sovereigntist lights the fuse, these two natural enemies must join forces to save a nation. But will Rémi and Alyssa's forbidden attraction bring them together--or blow them apart?

Get Deadly Addiction here: Amazon ebook, Amazon print, Amazon (UK), Barnes & Noble, All Romance eBooks, Kobo, Sony, Smashwords, Apple/iTunes US, Diesel.

    1. Ora - I haven't been in the military myself, but as a military brat, I got some sense of it. I have nothing but respect and admiration for the real-life heroes who face harsh living conditions and combat situations as a regular part of there lives. It's almost unimaginable to those of us who are safe at home. Thank you so much for your comment. Best of luck with the giveaways!

      Delete
  27. My heroes are our military. Both past and present. They are a much maligned group of people who serve their country, often without being asked, and serve in the most deplorable conditions. They come back home scarred and injured (
    both mentally and physically). In the past, our veterans have been treated with contempt, hatred, spat on, protested against or ignored. Any military service personnel should be considered a hero!

    1. You're right, Jilda. Not only do they experience horrors beyond belief, they often return home to a society that cares very little for what they've been through. Male or female, they and their families are all heroes. Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting. Good luck with the giveaways!

I know you're super swamped, but, drumroll...I still want to gift you with a Blog Award on my site...
