Nurturing alpha males…

For some reason, I’m thinking about how in later books, we get to see how super-psycho Zarek and how tender he is with his son *sniff*.

But I’ll definitely think on this one. Great Job Kati And happy late birthday.

Thank you Kati!

Mostly because, I’m going to whet your whistle for this book in the most marvelous way.

Is that whetting our appetite or teasing Jack sounds amazing and I’m so looking forward to reading the book! Lisa Kleypas really has a way of making her characters leap off the page!

And yes, I’m completely sold on a nuturing alpha male! Rhage is definitely a contender for that title

Oops, not Thor, Tohr. But again, a mistake. I am thinking of Rehvenge.

Kati – I can’t wait to read this one!

I agree with you – Rhage is a great bad boy, his sacrifices for Mary make him so very endearing. A nurturing bad boy is definitely one who makes your heart go pitter pat – and after reading the ARC for Rehvenge’s book, I think he’ll be right up there with Rhage.

I will definitely read this book. It sounds great. Rhage? Oh yes. But like you, I think Thor will be my new favorite. I have that book preordered. Counting down until May.

Hi everyone! You know, as I was re-reading the blog this morning, it occurred to me that Rhage is my favorite of the Black Dagger Brotherhood (until Tohr’s book). And he is ALSO a reformed bad boy caregiver. Mary is dying, and all he wants to do is be there for her, and take care of her and baby her. And he gives up SO much to do it.

I could get drunk off a guy like that. I just love a bad boy who nurtures.

Kati, I don’t hate you, but I definitely envy you! I can’t wait to read this book. A nurturing alpha male is fabulous!

One glance and I knew exactly who and what he was. The classic alpha male, the kind who had spurred evolution forward about five million years ago by nailing every female in sight. Wow! I love that line and I’d buy the book on that description alone!

Maria, we could definitely make $$$ from that quality of an a nurturing alpha male.
