Every man has a weakness; you are mine. I’ve accepted that. Now you must accept me.
I believe that every romance writer should take a few useful pointers on how to write Alpha males romance novels by reading Kresley Cole’ s books. Especially in her Game Maker series, she describes three top notch Alpha males who
1. They do everything for their female
2. They know their female the second they lay eyes on her
3. They never let her go
4. They make her feel absolutely unique and special
5. They provide her with everything she needs
6. They put her above money and power
7. They protect her even from her own self
And at the same time they are
1. Sexy
2. Dangerous
3. Powerful
4. Over the top goodlooking
5. Clever
6. Witty
7. Filthy rich
8. Athletic
9. Focused
If you combine these characteristics with
1. funny dialogues
2. steamy sex scenes
3. a nice adventure with bad guys who don't know with whom they are messing with
4. a very strong heroine. (Seriously the romance novels usually suffer from underwhelming, disappointing heroines and every time I find a good, strong one I cheer)
...then you have the Sevastyan brothers’ novels as a result!
The first novel is about Aleksei “The Siberian” Sevastyan (an enforcer in Russia mafia) and Grad student Natalie Porter (who discovers that her father is a boss in Russia mafia).
If you are skittish about BDSM descriptions, I have to warn you that there are plenty. And there are a few voyeurism and exhibitionism scenes.
