CAN YOU HANDLE AN ALPHA?

I’m currently finishing my latest wolf story: Scent of a Mate. It has all the sexiness you know comes from a Milly book with the fights and drama we love that make these couples burn the e-readers. One of the reasons I love writing alpha men is that they don’t have to be jerks in my book to be strong. An alpha is all about being a leader, but also knowing what’s important. For my alphas, their mates, their families and making the ones they love happy are always top priorities. It is no wonder that with my love for alphas, I give you some of the men that inspire the alphas in my writing.

Some may be a little misguided in their approach at giving their mates the things they need, but they always love with the passion every one of my heroines needs. They are bossy, yes, but what leader isn’t? They’re used to grabbing a situation by the balls and fixing it. They’re possessive. Nothing and no one will interfere with the women they want. That includes the women themselves.

Fighting your attraction for an alpha is useless. They know you want them and will wear you down until you’re putty on their bed, or couch, or car, or heck, even the street. These are men that will fight anyone in order to protect their women. But when you put an alpha man with an alpha woman together? Watch sparks fly.

These men love a strong woman. They love someone who can step up to the plate and help them lead if necessary. And they love a sassy sexy woman who can hold her own against a man used to making others bend to his will.

They will do whatever is necessary to ensure the innocents are always safe. They play hard. They fight hard. They love hard. That’s the kind of alpha I like to write.

Do you like alpha men? What do you like about them?

Joe Manganiello and Tom Hardy. ¡Sí, Mamacita!

I’m going to need a moment.

I ADORE alpha men, because they are not intimidated by strong, intelligent women. In fact, they are PROUD to stand beside these women. In many cases, they are the first men to champion their alpha women and it is beautiful to see that aspect of their relationship develop.

Having a strong partner allows the men to let their guard down, in a safe space. She does not judge him, allows his sensitive, emotional, and sometimes tortured or misunderstood side come out. He knows he can be whole with her.

The coolest thing about living and loving a real alpha man, is listening to him talking about me, when I’m not in the room. My hubby LOVES to brag about “his wife,” and women he has worked with have all told me what a wonderful man he is. Yes, I know. He’s MINE. I. Do. Not. Share. EVER.

I love Alpha men. They know what they want in life, they are leaders, loyal and caring to their mate and family. They protect what’s theirs. Hubby is one and I count my blessings every day.

  It’s wonderful when you can find one of them. Those men are loyal to a fault and will never put anyone or anything above their mates or families. They are what all husband should be.

The part where you talked about the alpha males loving a sassy woman who can hold her own against a man used to bending others to his will made me laugh! This was the reason my husband’s best friend told my friend that they should introduce me to my hubby versus another friend of ours! I finally agreed to meet him & we have been together ever since. That was about 18 yrs. ago, but I’ll never forget it. (It still plays like a movie in my mind).

All of the above please and whoever else you can spare!! I love an alpha male, because they’re a take charge kind of guy who you know can protect you, but will love you until his dying breath!
I would love a guy who can pick you up, hold you against a wall, while looking you in the eye and telling you, you’re his and don’t ever forget it!
So, when’s the next book?? Just saying, made myself all hot and bothered here!
