Beta Heroes
There's a very interesting challenge going on over at RomanceBooksForum. They want to prove the existence of the Beta Hero! If you're not 100% sure what that is, check out their post--they offer a good link to explain it.
I love beta heroes--always have. A couple great examples are Robin from Mary Jo Putney's wonderful ANGEL ROGUE, and Davy from my very favorite Jennifer Crusie novel, FAKING IT.
And it made me wonder. Do you think any of my heroes can be classified as betas? The only one who's been published so far that might fit the bill is Wes, from JUST ONE TASTE. Adam and (especially) Devon are both pretty alpha! But for those of you who, like me, love the quiet, calm confidence and intelligent leadership of the beta hero, I can't wait to introduce you to Danny Lunden, the hero of SOME LIKE IT HOT, the second book in my next trilogy. You're going to adore him!
