Welcome to the
Hot Summer Heroes Blog Hop!!!
This blog hop is hosted by Bella Media Management, Caris Roane and H.D. Thomson. Please stop by all three of their blogs and thank them for creating this fun hop. (And that AWESOME button. 🙂 ) The giveaway from my blog is open internationally.
Okay, here are the details…
The hop starts Monday August 13th at 12:01 am and ends at midnight Sunday August 19th.
What can you win?
The main question for this hop is “What makes a hero hot to you? What type of hero makes you melt all over?”
In order to give you a bigger bang for your buck and to hopefully make this stop on your blog hop journey worth your while, I’ve invited Linsey Lanierto participate with me. See our answers below and how we’ve tied them to the e-books we are offering as prizes.
We have two prizes being offered for this hop. Two prizes means two different winners!
A note from Linsey: What makes a hero hot? How about one with a dark, painful past that he’d like to keep a secret? For Wade Parker, the tragic rape and murder of his first love in high school sparked his career many years ago. But there was more to it than that. Some very personal details he doesn’t want the woman he now loves to ever know about. But since that woman is the feisty Miranda Steele, keeping his secret might not be possible.
What kind of hero makes me melt all over? To be perfectly honest, the kind that packs a tool belt and stays in shape by busting his butt on a construction site. I absolutely love a guy who is good with his hands. One who can build something from a pile of sticks. Someone like the hero in my novella, In Her Wildest Dreams. Kevin Calhoun built his construction company from the ground up. He’s finally at a point in his life where he can sit back and do something that he’s always wanted to do. And then Liza Adams comes along and has him shaking up his plans.

I love a hero who is super-Alpha and not apologetic about it either. I like him to walk into the room and take command of it. Yet beneath is all, he’s not self-assured, but vulnerable and uses the tough persona as a shield!
My hero is someone hot, but kind, smart, brave, and loyal. Someone that makes you feel treasured and loved and would die for you.
my kind of hero is a hot sexy man who is smart, honest, has a few loveable flaws but is totally loyal and has an awsome sense of humor

Woohoo! Loving this hop!
A hero is HOT when he’s an alpha; 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.
<^_^>
Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win.

A hero is hot when he’s got that tender heart on the inside (the one where it’s completely obvious to everyone but him that he’s in love and wants to be loved in return) but on the outside he’s Alpha and strong, kind of a bad ass attitude sort-of look. 🙂
Thanks for the chance to win! I’m a subscriber 🙂

A hot hero to me is one that is rough around the edges but has a heart of gold (sometimes deeply buried but its there). Also a fierce protectiveness with those he cares about.

A hero is honest, loyal, humble I know there is more but I just can”t come up with it right this second.

A hero is one who is loyal, honest, and willing to do anything for the heroine. He is also willing to show his soft side.

A witty sense of humor, rough around the edges, intelligent, compassionate, protective, alpha/dominate type, protective, willing to go after what he wants/works for what he has. A sexy accent would definitely make him hot.
Thanks to both of you for being part of the blog hop and for the giveaway

I really go for the guy that has just a little too much testosterone LOL but has the lady that he allows to kick his ass back inline! Kresely Cole is great at those characters! Conrad is all badass in her book but Neomi kicks back! Love them! Great contest! Thanks!

I agree with all the above mentioned character traits in a hero, but I’m going to add a physical one that really gets me going – tattoos 🙂

Sexy, strong, loyal and fearless! Ian from Killer Secrets by Lora Leigh emobodies this. He fought for what he wanted and would not give up! Ian is one of the best hero’s that I’ve ever read. He had flaws but used them for good. His courage was inspiring.
